"Exactly what we were looking for in an invitation. Just as nice as anything we would have done in person at an invitation store custom made. Quality of product was excellent and surpassed our expectations. Came exactly on time and appreciated the service from the team of designers at Tiny Prints. They offered colour suggestions for the font to be adjusted and gave me the options to review colour digital versions free of charge. We are over the moon about what arrived and will definitely be our go to place for future events. The cost was also so reasonable for all the items we purchased. Could not have been any easier and received a beautiful invitation we are proud to use for our event."
"We ordered this RSVP card to go with our invitation, Bubbly Borders. The designer matched the colors perfectly and we were very pleased. They looked like they were made to go together."
"This invitation was just what I wanted: classy yet cheerful. The touch of color communicates the spirit of a joyful occasion. Friends agree that it is lovely and perfect. I was thrilled with the quality of the cardstock and envelopes, and the printing was flawless."
"The invitations were terrific! When creating my personalization, I realized that some of the text wrapped around to a second line. Although I wasn't able to fix this, the customer service/graphics folks were wonderful with my requests and made perfect edits. The overall product was even better than what I expected from the online order page. Thank you."
"I used this invitation for a baby naming. We added Hebrew letters and the tiny prints staff was wonderful at working with me to get it done. The results were beautiful and exactly what we wanted."

Midday movers: Coca-Cola, First Solar, Zynga
Stocks rise as the IMF raises its view on US and global growth prospects.
The only Dow decliner was Johnson & Johnson (JNJ), which reported adjusted earnings that beat expectations but revenue below the Street's forecast.
Goldman Sachs (GS) was nearly flat despite earnings and revenue that beat expectations, and an increase in its quarterly dividend to 46 cents from 35 cents.
Among the notable gainers were First Solar (FSLR), up nearly 13%, after it announced plans to cut its global workforce by approximately 2,000 positions, or about 30%, in response to conditions in Europe, and Denison Mines (DNN), up almost 15%, after agreeing to sell its mining assets and operations located in the U.S. to Energy Fuels.
Noteworthy losers included Apollo Residential Mortgage (AMTG), down 6%, after filing to sell 13.9 million shares of its common stock, and Zynga (ZNGA), down more than 3% amid reports that its newly acquired Draw Something game has seen its daily active use fall off.

Senate President Jeff Kessler, D-Marshall, is so committed to bringing a future fund to West Virginia, he's taking a study on the road to look at something similar in North Dakota.
The North Dakota Legacy Fund was created in 2011, according to information from Kessler's office, and it is funded by oil and gas tax revenue. The fund reached $1 billion 20 months after its inception.
Kessler has proposed a similar fund for the Mountain State and has been talking about it for the past three years.
"If we can create the fund and begin investing in it now, it will send a powerful message to Wall Street that West Virginia, during these tough economic times, is not only balancing its budget but also saving for the future," Kessler said in a news release. "A permanent endowment future fund will create real wealth and opportunity that will last long after the natural gas is gone."
A House-Senate delegation will take the trip as a result of House Bill 3013, which sets up a job creation task force. House Speaker Tim Miley, D-Harrison, said the legislation was adopted specifically for this type of study.
"West Virginia lawmakers can be much more proactive in reaching out to other states and learning from their economic development efforts," Miley said in a news release. "The concept of such a future fund holds tremendous potential, as well as other successes that North Dakota has experienced in managing their energy resources."
Members of the delegation will be named at a later date. The legislation authorizes the Senate President and House Speaker to appoint job creation workgroups to work independently and also in cooperation with the Department of Commerce, West Virginia Development Office and other executive offices and agencies in the state.

For fans who want to know the intimate details of Brantley Gilbert 's breakup with Jana Kramer , you'll find the answers on his new CD Just As I Am .
"It was the real thing," he says of the romance. "We went at it. We went at it hard and fast. It's definitely a love story that's a huge part of my life, always will be, and I was proud to represent it on the record. It's part of that chapter."
Since he's been writing and recording, Brantley says he's always been brutally honest about his life. So it really wasn't an option to leave out even an unpleasant part.
"The past four-and-a-half years there was a lot of the good, and the bad and the ugly in there," he says, looking back on his country career so far. "I didn't skip anything... I take a lot of pride in being able to say I don't sing anything I don't write on. I don't write about anything I hadn't been through. I tell people, these albums are chapters of my life. Well, if you're gonna say that you damn well ought to live by it."
Brantley met Jana in June of 2012, and by January of the next year, he and the actress-turned-singer were engaged. But by August of 2013, they'd called off the wedding. He's quick to say rumors that circulated about the breakup were false, and what really happened is much less exciting.
"The stories that came up around that thing, I'll be the first one to tell you, they're not true. Obviously there's a situation in relationships that exist where things just don't work," he says candidly. "That's what happened to us."
In fact, Brantley says the gossip about his ill-fated love affair actually reminds him of high school, and he's still somewhat mad about it.
"The stories that were surrounding that whole deal that were made up -- I had heard that Nashville was the biggest small town in America. I graduated with 66 people. Now, we could come up with a hella some stories. You know what I mean, and bend the truth like nobody's business without breaking it, but when that happened and that went down, that was really the one thing that would make me pretty angry, and there's some folks that's lucky they ain't got a dent in their head, and it ain't over," he laughs.
Even though the song "Dust" was written specifically about the breakup, Brantley's quick to point out there were some positives to come out of his time with Jana too.
"It's not just the negative things," he interjects. "Man, there are a lot of good things. More good than bad."
In the end, Brantley says he has no hard feelings toward Jana and he wishes her well.
"She is an absolute wonderful person," he reflects. "I think the world of her. She's going to make someone a wonderful, wonderful wife -- a wonderful, wonderful mother. Just between us, things didn't work."

Molecule of the Week
June 9, 2008
Heparin, the most widely used injectable blood anticoagulant, has been in the news recently because contaminated samples of raw heparin stock from China were discovered. It is one of the oldest drugs in widespread use; it was discovered in 1916 and was in medical use by the 1930s. Chemically, it is a highly sulfated polysaccharide in which the most common unit is the triply sulfated disaccharide l-iduronic acid–d-glucosamine.

Obamacare loophole lets states shift costs
Washington state is considering taking its part-time employees off its insurance plan and sticking Uncle Sam with the tab.
The new national health care law has always fueled debate over funding, but now it's the states that may potentially pass costs on to the federal government.
Washington state, which is coping with a $1.2 billion budget shortfall, is considering pushing some of its employees out of the state health care plan and into exchanges created by the Affordable Care Act. The book keepers in Olympia say their plan would save the state $120 million over the next two years. However, it would just dump costs onto the federal government, since some low-income, part-time state employees and education workers may qualify for federal aid.
While the health care law requires health insurance for employees working 30 hours a week or more, Washington already insures employees who work as little as 20 hours a week. Under a proposal still in the developmental stages, the state would change its policies and make deals with staffers working between 20 and 30 hours a week to pay them more, but drop their health care coverage. Those workers would then be eligible for health care through the federal plan, with minimal consequences for the state.
The tradeoff for Washington is roughly $2 an hour in raises for school cafeteria workers and teacher's aides. That's about $200 a month for workers putting in 25 hours a week, but part-timers in families with middle-class incomes or better might not qualify for federal benefits and could face thousands of dollars in new expenses.
The state's budget battles have already resulted in Washington selling off its state-run liquor stores, proposing an increasingly divisive beer tax and exploring tolls to fund a new Interstate 5 bridge into Oregon. Yet it's not the only state framing its budget issues in the context of so-called Obamacare.
Virginia, for example, is now requiring all part-time employees to work 29 hours or less weekly to avoid incurring health care costs. Florida, which is facing a potential $300 million penalty for not covering workers who put in 30 to 39 hours a week, is taking the opposite approach and trying to extend coverage to those employees.
"Road to Perdition" - that's pretty good - had to look that one up to be certain.
My main concern is that we are dropping this grand experiment called Obamacare on a fragile economy without any idea of the impact that will arise from such a sea change in the medical and health care industry with the projected costs being substantially more than first thought and being bourne primarily by business (translate jobs) and middle class & upper income individuals.
This is a foolish "gamble" by the folks in D.C. who admittedly had no idea what this law had in it or how it would be applied. Just another romanticist concept from Obama without any experience or knowledge of reality.
Perception can get you elected (twice you dumb Americans), but Reality must eventually be dealt with. Public relations/image just doesn't get the job done when it comes down to it.

An alcohol-fueled party in West Point turned violent late Saturday, ending with one person being shot with a stolen gun, a vehicle crash and a man jumping fences in an effort to elude deputies, authorities said.
Davis County Deputy Scott Harper said about 15 people were at the home at about 10:10 p.m. near 412 North and 2000 West when the shooting occurred.
|Join the Discussion
|Post a Comment
Harper said deputies had been to the home about 8:30 p.m. to respond to a noise complaint and found that 25 to 30 people were at a party with quite a bit of alcohol.
Harper said the residents promised to keep down the noise and deputies left, only to be called back after numerous people called 911 to report that someone had been shot.
When deputies arrived they found the victim, an Ogden-area man in his early 30s, stumbling near the sidewalk with a gunshot wound in his upper chest and two wounds to the face, apparently caused when he was grazed by bullets.
He was taken to a trauma center where he remained Sunday in a medically induced coma and was listed in serious but stable condition. Harper said he is expected to survive.
The suspected shooter, who is in his 20s and from the Ogden area, ran east out of the home, hopping fences and at some point threw away the gun, Harper said. He was apprehended and was being questioned Sunday.
Deputies, who were assisted by multiple agencies, said they found the handgun, which was reported stolen out of Ogden, in the backyard of a home.
Harper said the suspect's friend panicked when the shooting started and tried to leave the scene by backing his vehicle out of the driveway but crashed into another car before driving away. He was later apprehended and taken in for questioning.
Harper said deputies Sunday were trying to determine a motive but said alcohol was believed to be a factor.
Charges will be screened with the Davis County Attorney's Office, he said.

Many men living with advanced prostate cancer receive treatment that includes lowering the level of testosterone in the blood, in order to starve the prostate cancer of the male hormone that makes it grow. The treatment often involves a combination of injections with tablets and is called androgen deprivation therapy, or ADT for short. While in can be effective for years or decades in controlling the cancer, ADT has unwanted physical effects, including reduced muscle mass, diminished physical strength, less stamina, thin bones and increased fat.
Fatigue in cancer survivors is finally getting much deserved attention from the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO). It is the international professional organization of cancer specialists, with over 35,000 members, including me. In April, ASCO published guidelines to help cancer specialists care for adult survivors of cancer who are experiencing fatigue. By publishing guidelines, ASCO is saying that cancer fatigue is a real and important problem, that cancer fatigue has identifiable causes, and that cancer fatigue can be helped.

Add a full, rich taste and striking black color to paellas, other rice dishes, pastas and risottos. Squid ink brings out the flavor nuances of each ingredient while adding mild seafood hints, without tasting 'fishy.' It is the essential ingredient in Arroz Negro (black rice), the famous black paella of Valencia, and a favorite throughout the region for executing dramatic presentation and enhanced flavors of traditional Spanish dishes. Squid ink is created from cuttlefish caught fresh from the Atlantic Ocean surrounding the beautiful Basque Country. Cuttlefish is a type of sepia, a relative of the squid, but has long been hailed as having more pristine ink that is better for cooking due to its rich, non-fishy flavor. The ink is preserved with sea salt and remains good for up to 4 years in storage unopened. Once opened, use within 1-2 weeks. No artificial preservatives are added. You may freeze the remainder of the squid ink if need be.
Cuttlefish ink, water, salt and stabilizer: sodium carboxymethyl cellulose.

The following article by Silvia Marchetti first appeared in GlobalPost.
ROME, Italy — "Exploit your holidays to discover your unique, magical Italy," intones Italian Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi in a new TV ad encouraging Italians to vacation at home this year.
For those Italians still unsure of exactly why they should "discover" Italy — according to Berlusconi, a land not just of "sky, sun and sea but also of history, culture and art — the state has thrown in a sweetener: it will help pay for citizens' summer or winter breaks by granting "holiday vouchers."
Berlusconi's government believes that tourism can be a strategic tool in Italy's economic recovery, but only if Italians spend money for vacations at home instead of abroad.
The coupons are available to all low-income families, especially those with many children, who wish to go to the seaside or mountains but can't normally afford it. If the state has its way, visits to sunny beaches or historical cities will no longer be a privilege for the few, but a right of the many.
The new series of coupons can be used from Aug. 23 until July 3, 2011, though they're restricted around the Christmas period. The Tourism Ministry has set up a website [2] through which citizens can apply for vouchers and book vacations, choosing from a wide range of offers and staying at hotels plugged into the government's initiative.

Thanks to the television images beamed to the world during those Olympics, Canmore has grown from a small mining town to an international tourist destination. Within the community of 12,288 full-time residents, Canmore is a model for healthy living and sustainable environmental development.
It's minutes from a world heritage wilderness park, three provincial parks, a high-performance Nordic training centre and six golf courses, and just over 100 kilometres from Calgary.
The community is home to an energetic and well-educated population of mountain lovers that seems to be keenly aware of the balance between social health, economic growth and a sustainable environment.
This means that Canmore's epic natural spaces are in good hands.
Canmore received its name in 1884 from Donald Smith – a Canadian Pacific Railway employee – who christened it after a town in northwest Scotland.
In 1886 Queen Victoria granted a coal mining charter to the town, and a few years later the first mine opened, providing the community's main source of livelihood for nearly a century.
Through the early 20th century many of the Bow Valley's coal mines began to close, and in 1979, Canmore Mines Ltd. shut their doors, leaving 120 miners out of work.
Today, Canmore's economy is focused on recreation, tourism and a growing health & wellness sector, and the shift has worked in its favour: the town has tripled its population since the 1988 Olympics.
There are over 71 kilometres of multi-use trails within the town limits, five easily-reachable major ski resorts and the wonderful Canmore Nordic Centre.
Add to that some of the world's best golf, hiking, mountain climbing, biking, kayaking, canoeing and rafting, and you understand why Canmore has become such a beacon for mountain living and the active pursuit of well-being.
There are three school divisions operating in the town of Canmore:
The drive from Calgary to Canmore is the divided, double-lane Trans-Canada Highway. There is also regular Greyhound bus service between the two cities.

The commune of Magomadas is situated around 55km from Oristano, the capital of the Oristano Province. With a population of just 628, Magomadas really is the epitome of a small, Sardinian village, and is surrounded by dense countryside, vineyards, olive groves, roaming mountains and the clear blue of the Mediterranean Sea. With a village centre that sees limited amounts of tourism, Magomadas makes for a truly authentic and rural holiday destination, high up in the hill tops of Sardinia.
Many people head to Magomadas simply to relax. A good way of doing this is to rent a holiday villa or self-catering accommodation on the outskirts of the village, which will perfectly position you to take in the stunning views of this tranquil area. If relaxing on the balcony of your villa and admiring the sunset with a glass of local wine sounds like your ideal break, then Magomadas may well be the ideal holiday destination for you.
The village itself is small and traditional, and has amenities such as shops, a small supermarket, bars and restaurants, which though basic, are more than adequate for a self-catering holiday. Sampling the local Malvasia wine is a must, and there is even a museum dedicated to telling the story of the wine, hidden away in the back streets of the village.
The surrounding countryside provides an excellent opportunity for walking, hiking and exploring, with many vineyards, fruit trees and olive groves to be found that are so typical of Sardinia. Little English is spoken in the area, and exploring the area is the perfect opportunity to learn or brush up on your Italian. There are also several beaches just a few short kilometres away, including the excellent one at Bosa.
A larger selection of amenities can be found in the neighbouring village of Bosa, 9km away. Bosa is a becoming an increasingly popular holiday destination due to its award-winning beach and historical centre, and has more than enough to fill a day trip during your stay. Further afield, the province capital of Oristano (55km) has a number of historical sites, including 11th and 12th Century churches, and many more tourist attractions.
Sardinia is renowned for its excellent weather, particularly during summer months when the mercury can rise as high as 35C. In fact a visit to Magomadas during any month from April to October will likely be rewarded with at least pleasant temperatures, which are ideal for both relaxing and walking and hiking around the surrounding countryside.
Algerho Airport (AHO) is a busy destination for both Ryanair and Thomson Airways, making it easy to reach from the UK. Upon arrival, the airport is just 44km from Magomadas, a pleasant journey through the beautiful Sardinian countryside.

Waste management in South Africa is governed by the National Environmental Management: Waste Act, 2008 (Act No. 59 of 2008) which came into effect on 1 July 2009. Following the enactment of the Waste Act, the Minister of Water and Environmental Affairs established the National Waste Management Strategy (NWMS) in terms of Section 6(1) for achieving the objects of the Act. The NWMS was approved for implementation by the Cabinet in November 2011. The Waste Act supports the waste hierarchy in its approach to waste management, by promoting cleaner production, waste minimisation, reuse, recycling and waste treatment with disposal seen as a last resort in the management of waste.
Introduction to Waste
Definition of Waste according to the National Envornmental Management: Waste Act, 2008 (Act No. 59 of 2008)
��waste�� means any substance, whether or not that substance can be reduced, re-used, recycled and recovered�
(a) that is surplus, unwanted, rejected, discarded, abandoned or disposed of;
(b) which the generator has no further use of for the purposes of production;
(c) that must be treated or disposed of; or
(d) that is identified as a waste by the Minister by notice in the Gazette, and includes waste generated by the mining, medical or other sector, but�
(i) a by-product is not considered waste; and
(ii) any portion of waste, once re-used, recycled and recovered, ceases to be waste
Waste Classifications as defined in the NEM: Waste Act, 2008
Waste is divided into two classes based on the risk it poses - general waste and hazardous waste.
"general waste" means waste that does not pose an immediate hazard or threat to
health or to the environment, and includes�
(a) domestic waste;
(b) building and demolition waste;
(c) business waste; and
(d) inert waste;
"hazardous waste" means any waste that contains organic or inorganic elements or compounds that may, owing to the inherent physical, chemical or toxicological characteristics of that waste, have a detrimental impact on health and the environment.

Here are solutions to some common sound problems on your computer. These solutions can also help if you don't hear any sound coming from your speakers or headphones, or if there's a problem with the sound you do hear. For a step-by-step tutorial to help you identify and fix common sound problems, go to No sound in Windows.
Try using the Playing Audio troubleshooter to fix the problem. It checks for common problems with your volume settings, your sound card or driver, and your speakers or headphones.
Open the Playing Audio troubleshooter by clicking the Start button , and then clicking Control Panel. In the search box, type troubleshooter, and then click Troubleshooting. Under Hardware and Sound, click Troubleshoot audio playback.
If you're prompted for an administrator password or confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.
To make sure you have the most up-to-date troubleshooters from the Windows Online Troubleshooting Service, your computer should be connected to the Internet. For more information, see Troubleshooting in Windows.
Here are some simple steps that might help you fix the problem:
Check to make sure your computer actually has a sound card, or sound processor, and it's working properly.
You must be logged on as an administrator to perform these steps.
Open Device Manager by clicking the Start button , clicking Control Panel, clicking System and Security, and then, under System, clicking Device Manager.
If you're prompted for an administrator password or confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.
Double-click Sound, video and game controllers to expand that category. If a sound card is listed, you have one installed. If no sound card is listed, check the information that came with your computer to see if there's supposed to be a sound card installed. If there should be a sound card installed, you'll need to install one. See Install or remove a sound card.
If you think you have a sound card installed but you don't see it under the Sound, video and game controllers category, expand the Other devices category and check any devices listed there.
Laptops don't usually have sound cards. Instead, they have integrated sound processors, which appear in the same category in Device Manager.
If there's a yellow question mark next to the name of the sound card in Device Manager, there might be a problem.
Right-click the name of the sound card and then click Properties.
Click the General tab, and then look in the Device status box to identify problems with the sound card.
If there's a problem, you might need a new driver for your sound card. For more information, see Update a driver for hardware that isn't working properly.
If you have speakers, make sure they're plugged into a working power source and turned on.
Make sure your speakers are correctly connected to the computer.
Many computers have three or more jacks that connect to a sound card or sound processor, including a microphone jack, line-in jack, and line-out jack. Your speakers should be plugged in to the line-out jack. If you're not sure which jack this is, try plugging your speakers in to each of the jacks to see if any of them produce sound.
Make sure that your speaker volume or headphone volume isn't muted or turned down too low. This is particularly important for laptops, which often have small speakers that can be hard to hear.
Open Volume Mixer by clicking the Start button , clicking Control Panel, clicking Hardware and Sound, and then, under Sound, clicking Adjust system volume.
Move the slider up to increase the volume.
Some laptops have an external volume control on the outside of the case. If you're using a laptop, check the external volume control to make sure it's not turned all the way down.
Make sure your headphones aren't plugged into the line out (headphone) jack of your sound card or computer (unless you want to be listening with headphones rather than speakers). When you plug in headphones, most computers automatically cut the sound to the speakers.
If these steps don't solve the problem, check the information that came with your computer or speakers, or go to the manufacturer's website.
To find out if your hardware is compatible with Windows 7, go to the Windows 7 Compatibility Center. This website contains a comprehensive list of hardware and devices that have been tested to work with this version of Windows.
Make sure your speakers are correctly connected to your computer.
In some cases, you can work around the problem by disabling optional speaker effects that are known as enhancements. If disabling speaker effects solves the problem, you might need to update your audio driver.
If these steps don't fix the problem, check the information that came with your computer or speakers, or go to the manufacturer's website.
For Windows to recognize your sound card or sound processor, you must find and install a compatible driver. Most sound cards and sound processors require driver software to work properly. Here are three ways to find and install a driver:
Use Windows Update. You might need to set Windows Update to automatically download and install recommended updates.
Install software from the device manufacturer. For example, if your device came with a disc, that disc might contain software that installs a driver for the device.
Download and install the driver yourself. You can search for a driver on the manufacturer's website. Try this if Windows Update can't find a driver for your device and the device didn't come with software that installs a driver.
For instructions on how to do each of these, see Update a driver for hardware that isn't working properly.
Windows Update can search for updated drivers and install them automatically, but if you already have a new driver you want to install, you can do this yourself.
Most drivers today are self-installing—after you download them, you can usually just double-click the file to begin the installation. Software included with your hardware usually contains drivers that are installed automatically, but sometimes you might have to install a driver manually. Here's how:
Open Device Manager by clicking the Start button , clicking Control Panel, clicking System and Security, and then, under System, clicking Device Manager.
If you're prompted for an administrator password or confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.
Double-click Sound, video and game controllers to expand that category, and then double-click the device name.
Click the Driver tab, and then click Update Driver.
You can connect a microphone, portable music player, or other audio device to your computer by using one of the jacks on the front, back, or side of your computer. These jacks directly connect to your computer's sound card or sound processor.
Most desktop computers have at least one line-in jack to connect a music player or other audio device and one line-out jack to connect speakers. These jacks typically appear on the back of a desktop computer. Many desktop computers also have a microphone jack, which is often on the front of the computer.
Most laptops don't have line-in or line-out jacks, but usually have microphone and headphone jacks located on the front or side of the laptop.
If you don't hear any sounds coming from an audio device you've plugged in to one of these jacks on your computer, check to make sure the jack isn't muted.
For more information, see Connect a microphone, music player, or other audio device to your computer.
Some sound problems can't be solved by the solutions listed above. For example, problems can occur with specific models of hardware, such as a certain sound card, music player, or headset. It might help to check the Microsoft Support website to see if it contains any information about your sound hardware.
If you're stuck, here are some webpages to start with:
USB speakers
Sound cards
You can also check for support information on your hardware manufacturer's website. The manufacturer might have information about problems with your specific model of computer or sound card:
Dell support
HP support
Lenovo support
Creative support
Turtle Beach support
For more information, see Sound cards: frequently asked questions.

- OpenTable Diner Since 2005Dined on 9/17/2014We came in for lunch and were warmly welcomed by the hostess. Our party expanded by 1 and we were accommodated without the bat of an eyelash. The service was really top notch--friendly but not overbearing, prompt and attentive. The carrot soup special was a special treat, especially with the bacon!
- ServiceTT12Dined on 9/15/2014Jason, our server, was awesome. The food was ok. The place was empty, we could here a pin drop.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- First Time, Great ImpressionJoyseygirlDined on 9/7/2014I had the Crabby Benedict. It was the first time I ever had eggs Benedict and it was great. My sister ordered the chicken salad sandwich also bursting with flavorful greatness. I know because I managed to grab a few bits before she consumed it all. No complaint about the service either. Everyone was friendly and our food was brought out in a timely fashion. The only thing I wish is that I had the opportunity to try the french toast and gelato. I was so envious when I saw a plate with two thick slices of french toast accompanied by the creamy, perfectly scooped gelato being delivered to the table next to us. I guess that gives me a reason to come back.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Urban coolEsther1958VIPDined on 9/6/2014We ate dinner here on a Saturday night; there seemed to be few diners but a lively bar scene. The food was excellent, and the vegetarian in the group particularly appreciated the choice of vegetarian dishes. The thud-thud-thud of the bass of the soundtrack made the place noisy for dining (but probably lively for drinks). We won't be back, because the ambiance isn't what we wanted for dinner. A pity, because the food was so delicious and beautifully presented.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- SUPER FRESH FOODaftatoDined on 9/6/2014Unquestionably a very tasty meal from start to finish; the meals all tasted extremely fresh; the vegetables cooked just right; one of the few places that knows how to cook salmon perfectly so it retains total moisture; service was attentive and friendly; the one negative is that the place has a big bar with a big screen and I think that during certain sports events the dining experience could be overwhelmed by the sports bar scene. But I am sure that food will still be just as tasty.Special Features:
- Very nice brunchOpenTable Diner Since 2009Dined on 9/6/2014Three of us went for brunch on a quiet Saturday. I had a frittata with short ribs, peppers and mushrooms; my friends both had the Crabby Arnold (eggs benedict with crab cakes instead of Canadian bacon.) All were served with breakfast potatoes. The food was tasty, the servers were attentive. All in all a nice experience.Special Features:
- 2nd Time HereReno2277VIPDined on 9/1/2014This was our second time here. The first time was restaurant week last year. Loved it both times. This time was for our daughter's birthday. Loved it!Special Features:
- Excelent ServiceDKWalserVIPDined on 9/1/2014The wait staff at Square 1682 are freindly and attentive without being intrusive. I had the bacon wrapped dates as an appitizer. It was decadently rich. A perfect marriage of sweet, savory, and a little heat from spice. For my meal, I had the lamb shanks with a side order of roasted corn. The lamb shanks come with a hash of summer vegtibles and and creamy bulgar wheat. Since a major component of the hash was roasted corn, I should have skipped the side order. My desert order was their cheese cake. It was good, but would have benefited from a little more lemony tang. Overall, the meal was an excelent end to the day.Special Features:
- Great!JessDined on 8/24/2014Went here for Sunday brunch. Not too crowded- great atmosphere, great staff, excellent food! Only minus was having to go upstairs to the hotel for the bathroom. I will definitely go back - want to try for dinner as well!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- last minute brunchOpenTable Diner Since 2013Dined on 8/24/2014I scheduled a last minute brunch with family, first time at Square 1682. The food was great, fresh fruit juices were delightful. They were accommodating to my 3 year old as well as the other adults at the table. It was a little loud for conversation at brunch but otherwise was a great brunch location that I hope to return to.Special Features:
- Dinner and Brunch were TerffificDaveDined on 8/23/2014We had pre-theater dinner on Satuday and brunch on Sunday. Both were very good experiences. Excellent, well-trained and friendly servers. Menu and food are creative and extremely well prepared and presented. Chef and staff are clearly outstanding. We would definitely visit again.Special Features:
- Quiet night outFoodfanVIPDined on 8/16/2014Like the room space and the high chairs and tables, and staff were both attentive and helpful re recommendations. Food was good - the bacon wrapped dates were delicious, and my husband enjoyed his burger. My shrimp special was just ok. Not much ambiance but it was a Saturday night during the month of August when people were obviously at the beach. Expect that will change once September rolls around.Special Features:
- Welcoming and DeliciouspaperdillDined on 8/15/2014Our server was very helpful and friendly. For a light dinner for 2, we ordered 3 small plate items (salad, skewered shrimp, hummus platter) and parmesan fries. We loved almost everything. The fries might well be the best I've ever tasted -- and up to this point, my favorites were in Europe. The salad was perfect, and we enjoyed the cheese base on the salad plate. The shrimp was very nice. The hummus -- we wish we hadn't ordered because we didn't care for the flavors of the hummus or the toasts. Still, it was a lovely meal. Thank you! The atmosphere was nice -- not stuffy but refined. It was a very nice evening, and we hope to visit again soon to try breakfast or lunch.
- Dinner for TwoErinMcCoolyVIPDined on 8/14/2014A friend and I decided to try Square 1682 for a much needed get together in order to catch-up. It was the perfect spot. Having had our reservation on a lovely late Summer day, we sat outside and were not at all distracted by the hustle and bustle of Rittenhouse or overly stalked by the wait staff. It seemed as though we were always getting great service and had delicous food on our table. I would definintely try Square 1682 again to experience inside dining.Special Features:
- OpenTable Diner Since 2011Dined on 8/3/2014Excellent brunch. Very attentive service and very friendly staff. Food came out delicious and very quickly! I would definitely recmomend Square 1682 to my friends!! Great selection on the menu with something for everyone.Special Features:
- OkaySYeagerVIPDined on 8/2/2014I liked the menu / space / service much more pre-renovations. Our server was extremely personable and nice when he came to the table, but it was a bit of a wait in between his visits to the table. There is no need to go out and socialize with your friends outside the restaurant before putting in our drink order. The drinks and food were unimpressive at best. There are many other restaurants and bars in the neighborhood I would recommend before Square 1682.
- Great lunch spot.DannyBDined on 7/30/2014Went to Square 1682 recently for the first time with coworkers looking for a new lunch spot. Will definitely be adding it to the rotation. Food was great, service was excellent and it was quiet enough to actually hold a conversation without shouting. Looking forward to a return visit.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great for Business LunchkfcgVIPDined on 7/29/2014The restaurant was not crowded and the truffle popcorn was a nice bridge between our drinks and meal. Food was delicious and plentiful. The options for either ordering an entree or a pairing with an appetizer & dessert were a nice touch. Only negative is that we coould not find our server when trying to pay the bill.Special Features:
- Fantastic FoodSharita24VIPDined on 7/29/2014The food here is fantastic, most notably the kale caeser salad and burger and prices are reasonable. I still cant figure out why its always so empty, as its a nice location with a friendly staff. Will be back again if they can keep it going!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- AmazingATWMDined on 7/26/2014This restaurant is a gem. The staff are wonderful and attentive. Food is amazing. We are very picky about our food and have only good things to say about Square 1682. My husband had the burger which was fresh and delicious. I had Amish chicken which was moist and perfect. My daughter had fettuccine with veggies. Another great dish. Vegetables were fresh! They grow their own and locally source. They are serious about farm to table food and it makes all the difference. We had the cheesecake for dessert. Light and perfectly sweetened. Eat here for a hip and delicious meal in Philly!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- disappointmentEstroVIPDined on 7/24/2014it's my second time there. while i loved it for the first time, this time it was a disappointment. the food was average. my cold soup felt more like salad dressing and the french fries accompanied to the burger were cold! the service was slow and they forgot things (and the restaurant was not full). overall a mediocre experience. second time there, but won't come back.Special Features:
- Change is difficultWeeatoutVIPDined on 7/9/2014Recently Square 1682 downsized. That was probably a good decision given that the bigger space wasn't full very often. But it also changed the place. With the smaller size, the wait staff seems to be less attentive. The good news is the food is still a terrific blend of original flavors with hot food served hot and cold food served cold. Food excellent, service acceptable.Special Features:
- Wonderful experience!EllbeeDined on 7/4/2014This was a great find! First visit. Definitely coming back.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Very goidsp3cialVIPDined on 7/3/2014We were delayed due to a hotel fire alarm emergency. The chef offered us free desert. Thank you!I would recommend this to a friend.
- FabulousSuebDined on 7/2/2014Great service, food was without a flaw. Price was very reasonable and drinks were great!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Should be betterVeltrauteDined on 6/21/2014I understand what they're aiming for at Square 1682, but they don't quite get there. The food was very good and very inventive, but the staff was distracted. Maybe because they television above the bar is loud and obnoxious? Maybe because the staff is to thin for the room? I'm not sure. I was expecting the whole farm to table experience. That's what I had been told I would get. Our waitress confessed that she wasn't really certain that the local chickens actually tasted better. We ordered a bottle of not inexpensive white wine, which was brought to the table room temperature and was off.Special Features:
- DedwardDined on 6/21/2014Had breakfast and dinner here as we celebrated our 40th anniversary. It was great!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- Chic brunch spot in Center CityRun2eatVIPDined on 6/15/2014Square 1682 was easy to find and park close to for Sunday Brunch in Center City Philadelphia. The menu was diverse and had enough gluten free selections to satisfy those who are sensitive including my daughter. We also had my 11 month old grand daughter, the service team was especially sensitive to our needs in that respect. The food was tasty and the servings and served quickly - the restaurant was not busy or crowded. There was outdoor seating which looked appealing although we did not take advantage of it. We enjoyed our meal and would consider returning.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- Good location and menu optionsKarenDined on 6/12/2014Did a smpling of apps and drinks and enjoyed both the taste and timliness of the delivered items.

- I think it's overpriced, but tastyEstroVIPDined on 5/28/2014When you look at the menu you see it's expensive and even though the food was very good, it's way overpriced. But the Salmon I had was excellent. the salad was good as well. great variety of alcohol choices. The waitress was very nice but spoke so quiet that we couldn't hear her and needed her to repeat several times what she's saying. we also needed to wait several time for the check. but in general, food came fast. water glasses were always full. good experience that would have been better if it was cheaper. and last thing: why the restrooms are at the 2nd floor of the hotel. a long journey and i think it's disrespectful to the costumers at the restaurant and affect the overall service experience.Special Features:
- The following 919 reviews are from the Square 1682 reviews archive.
- Great again19460Dined on 5/24/2014We met friends at Square 1682 and had a great time. All 5 of us enjoyed our meals. The Salmon was great. The corn and potato soup of the day was fantastic. My wife has now had lamb at Square made 3 different ways and all have been great. The service once again was top notch all around!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Duck the DuckSGoldVIPDined on 5/24/2014I believe my duck was under cooked. My wife liked her steak but found it difficult to cut in a deep metal bowl.
- ShareVIPDined on 5/24/2014Calamari was delicious. Garlic Parmesan Fries was a disappointment. Main entrees: Halibut, Lancaster Duck Breast, and Scallops were well-seasoned. Nothing exciting or creative on the food prepared.Special Features:

Cramer's 'Mad Money' Recap: Facing a Worst-Case Scenario
Search Jim Cramer's "Mad Money" trading recommendations using our exclusive "Mad Money" Stock Screener.
NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- Investors need a game plan to deal with worst-case scenarios, Jim Cramer warned "Mad Money" viewers Monday. But what exactly is the worst case? Cramer laid it all on the line in plain English.
Cramer said there are two worst-case scenarios being floated by the bears. One is the markets will return to 2011 lows, with a 10% decline in the Dow Jones Industrial Average. The other assumes a return to the 2009 lows that saw the Dow touch 6,500, a full 50% decline from current levels.So could the markets return to the lows of last year? Cramer said they could indeed. The situation in Europe is worse now than in 2011 while China has cooled and the economies in India and Brazil have decelerated. Couple that with the return of gridlock in the U.S. political picture and falling employment, and a 10% decline in the markets seems par for the course, said Cramer. On the plus side, however, Cramer noted that unlike 2011, the U.S. housing market has stabilized, auto sales are better and corporate profits and balance sheets remain strong. Thus he only sees a 50/50 chance of the markets taking another 10% plunge. But what of a 2009-style market collapse? Cramer said this scenario assumes a total collapse in Italy and Spain, events that would send all of Europe, and with it the U.S. and the rest of the world, into a severe recession. According to the bears, our Federal Reserve is out of ammo to prevent such a catastrophe. But Cramer said that 2009 is totally "off the table" as the markets are in far better shape now than they were then. Credit is far easier to come by, he said, and many companies have been raising their dividends as their balance sheets have been improving. That makes stocks the only game in town when compared to Treasuries and other bonds. Given these strong profits and high yields, Cramer said there is no way stocks can lose 50% of their value from here.

By NOAH TRISTERAP Sports WriterDETROIT (AP) -- Reggie Bush's first carry went for a nifty 12-yard gain, and the crowd at Ford Field couldn't wait to show its approval:"Reg-gie! Reg-gie! Reg-gie!"Bush's debut in Detroit was everything the Lions hoped for when they signed the elusive running back during the offseason. Although Adrian Peterson scored three touchdowns for Minnesota, it was Bush who was the biggest star Sunday, accounting for 191 total yards in the Lions' 34-24 win over the Vikings.
Click the video player to get analysis from FOX 2's Dan Miller and the SportsWorks Roundtable."I think you saw a little bit of what's to come in the future," Bush said.Peterson's 78-yard touchdown run opened the scoring on Minnesota's first offensive play, but the Lions took the lead shortly after halftime, and Bush's 77-yard touchdown reception in the third quarter put Detroit up 27-17. Both teams made mistakes throughout, but it was the Lions who looked far more dangerous offensively.That was largely because of Bush, who the Lions hoped would provide some balance alongside an impressive passing game that includes quarterback Matthew Stafford and receiver Calvin Johnson.Bush passed his first test, and so did the Lions. Here are five reasons Detroit opened the season with a win over its NFC North rival:1. RUNNING ROOM: There was plenty of it for Bush, whether he was running the ball or catching passes out of the backfield.Bush's 77-yard touchdown catch came on a dump-off over the middle, which he turned into a long gain. The Vikings did a solid job against Johnson, holding him to four catches for 37 yards, but Bush had all sorts of open space."It makes a difference, having a guy that they can throw underneath with," Vikings coach Leslie Frazier said. "It wasn't like they threw balls over the top of our defense. We didn't do a good job on the screens and the underneath stuff that they did."2. MISSED OPPORTUNITIES: There were a bunch -- for both teams. The Lions blew an easy field goal try on the opening drive because of a botched hold. They also had a touchdown called back on an interception because Ndamukong Suh was called for an illegal block during the return.Detroit settled for a field goal after a fourth-down conversion was wiped out because of a penalty. The Lions committed 11 penalties for 88 yards in the game.But the Vikings had miscues of their own, including three interceptions and a fumble -- and a couple of costly third-down penalties on Detroit's final touchdown drive."I'm not going to apologize for any win. We won this football game," Lions coach Jim Schwartz said. "There are a lot of positives in this game, we were resilient, we played hard, we played physical and we went out and beat a playoff team at home in the opener. I'm not going to apologize for anything this team did."3. CONTROLLING THE LINE: After allowing Peterson's early touchdown, the Lions did a good job against him the rest of the game. The defensive front was impressive against the run and the pass, with defensive tackle Nick Fairley contributing 1 1/2 sacks.Fairley, Suh and rookie defensive end Ziggy Ansah were all active -- a good sign for a unit that's had potential for a while."We knew coming to the game that the battle was going to be won up front," Peterson said. "I felt like as an offense, focusing on our side, we've just got to clean up. We've got to be more technique-sound."4. PONDER'S PROBLEMS: Minnesota's Christian Ponder was intercepted three times and was also charged with a crucial fourth-quarter fumble on an exchange with Peterson.Not a good start for a quarterback who still has a lot to prove. The Vikings have a star running back in Peterson, but Ponder will have to play better in the future for Minnesota to be successful."They overcame adversity better than we did," Ponder said. "They are a good defense. They have a lot of talent. They don't really disguise anything -- they are what they are -- but they have a lot of talent so they can get away with it."5. HOLDING THEIR OWN: Detroit had to replace both starting offensive tackles after Jeff Backus retired and Gosder Cherilus left via free agency. Riley Reiff and Jason Fox stepped in Sunday, and although Fox hurt his groin, the Lions were able to contain pass-rushing star Jared Allen."We were horrible on first and second downs," Allen said. "When we're in second-and-short, third-and-short, know we're guessing, know the defense is on its heels and we are allowing them to dictate what they can do."
