- Danny Brown's experiencejoeysailsDined on 9/24/2014This restaurant never disappoints. It's always a Treat.Special Features:
- Always just rightNybritDined on 9/12/2014Learn welcome, hassle free seating, delicious fresh food including carpaccio. Yummy bread. Modestly priced wine. Was great.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- High RecommendBrellaDined on 9/9/2014Small and intimate, this restaurant has a more relaxed vibe than most Michelin Star's. High quality food and service that demands a return visit. Members of the staff are welcoming and personable, giving the dining experience a sense of familiarity. Happy with the wine list, and pricing is overall fairSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Chef needs to update the menupanga26Dined on 9/5/2014Based o like beansn the reviews from other open table diners, I was expecting a spectacular dining experience. Although the service was excellent and the cheese platter delicious, the menu items were not up to par. The salmon tartar was loaded with onions making it impossible to taste any other ingredient and covered in a gelatinous disc that was unnecessary. The eggplant ravioli was salty, overcooked and served in a tomato broth that tasted like borscht. Not good at all. The redeeming dish was the grilled octopus but even that had way too many beans- and I like beans. I will not return until I hear that they improved the food because right now it's not living up to it's reputation. Sit at the bar for wine exclusively!
- DiscerningDinerDined on 9/3/2014On our visit they ran out of their evening specials, both main dish and dessert. The substitutes were wonderful.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Always Great !!OpenTable Diner Since 2012Dined on 8/30/2014The lobster Special Saturday evening was superb !!!Special Features:
- luv2dineDined on 8/27/2014Our reservation time was late in the evening, and it was a busy night. So there was "a longer than usual" wait for our food. There were apparently 2 servers working that night.Perhaps they should have additional staff? as they are so busy? They ran out of the "prix fixe "dishes , and we were told an hour later. However to compensate we could order any dish from the menu at no additional cost. The food was excellent! The waiter was very nice and service was good ! Overall, it would have been a very good dining experience if we waited less and if we were told sooner that the prix fixe dishes were not available. We will return to Danny Brown as it is probably the finest restaurant in Forest HillsSpecial Features:
- absolutely deliciousKateDined on 8/23/2014one of the best meals I have had in a long time - highly recommend many of the dishes here, as well as the delightful cheese board!Special Features:
- Great ExperienceOpenTable Diner Since 2011Dined on 8/23/2014My husband and I shared a flight and had the croquettes as an appetizer. Both were good. Dinner itself was amazing! My husband had the tuna and I had the scallop special. You just have to go and have it because no words can describe how much we both loved our dishes. We will definitely be going back again. We both want to try the burger.Special Features:
- great restaurant in Forest HillsSoundeatsDined on 8/23/2014This is a lovely well-run kitchen and wine bar. We loved our dinner. Some of the dishes are conventional and fine, others more experimental. This time my skate had an inspired foam side sauce, full of sea flavor. It has also been good there when prepared other ways, but this was even better. The meat is of the best quality and flavor. Previously a seafood appetizer was surrounded by essence oils and truly a magnificent and delicate orchestration of sea flavors. This time that appetizer was not available but the grilled squid, white beans and arugula that came warm in a bowl was paired well with herbs ( rosemary/ marjoram perhaps?)and excellent. The wine advice could not be better, leading us to fine "Hermitage" French red wine.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Excellent!OpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 8/12/2014Excellent! Finally a Manhattan restaurant in Queens with bearable prices! The only con: noise level is a little too high.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great for romantic dinner!Lyn21sDined on 8/9/2014We were in the area celebrating my husbands birthday! We were able to find street parking without any issues, greeted promptly on arrival, food and service was great!! Loved the cheese tasting!! A must if you go here!!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- mayS22Dined on 8/9/2014I went to Danny Brown Wine Bar last week. The experience was so great that I took a friend again this week for dinner. The ambience is romantic and quiet. Service was excellent. The moment we sat at the table the waiter came to greet us and take our order. The wine list is extensive. I found it included Albarino wine which you don't find often unless you are at a Spanish restaurant. The food was great and very diverse. We had Spanish tapas which were excellent. There are Italian pasta dishes, and French cuisine dishes. But more than the diversity, the quality of food is what you may find in the top Manhattan restaurants. Highly recommended. You won't be disappointed. I only wish they had outdoors sitting in the summer.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Always a pleasureMariseDined on 8/7/2014Always a great experience at Danny Brown. The food is always on point, with a extensive wine selection and great ambiance. The service is consistenly great. Definitely recommend it! Been here for my birthday for the past 2 years and my mom's birthday just recently.Special Features:
- Danny BrownSimonkVIPDined on 8/6/2014Great food. Best Duck Breast in town. Just perfect. Great service. I have eaten at Danny Brown number of times and they just getting better (I'm wondering if there is a room left for improvement but I'm confident that they'll find a way).Special Features:
- An Evening to CelebrateQnsGalDined on 8/5/2014My husband and I celebrated 23 years of marriage with the Prix Fixe dinner, which was a terrific deal. There must have been at least 5 couples/small groups that were celebrating birthdays, so everyone in Middle Village/Forest Hills knows Danny Brown's is the place to celebrate a special occasion. Our waitress was very attentive and able to recommend wine to go with dinner. I loved that we were not rushed through our meal and that we were able to enjoy great food, wine and each other's company in a really nice restaurant.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Perfect as alwaysNybritDined on 7/31/2014May warn welcome, combined with inventive menu and unobtrusive personal service made for a very special evening.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Culinary Oasis in Forest HillsOpenTable Diner Since 2010Dined on 7/29/2014The prix fixe menu was a real bargain, however there were only two entree selections offered, both seafood. The food was prepared with great skill; we both ordered grilled skate, which was moist, crispy and succulent, served with a tomato foam and lima beans. The other entrée offered was a Maine lobster roll, which looked fantastic. The wine list was extensive, reasonably priced, with wines that often can't be found elsewhere. Flourless chocolate cake with salted peanuts was rich but not too sweet, and the panna cotta creamy and refreshing. Unfortunately, service was a bit indifferent, with tables too close, making private conversation difficult. It was a lovely dinner, however the ambience was a bit disappointing.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Wonderful food and wineGailM1Dined on 7/25/2014We ate here for the first time last night. The food, wine and service are all fantastic. The price was around $100 a head for 3 courses and wine (we had 3 bottles between 4 of us, and took most of the last one home). It's not cheap, but it's worth every penny. There is also the option to eat cheese or meat platters, or tapas style appetizers at the bar with wine. We'll definitely be going back to try that as well. The kitchen is fully visible at the back of the restaurant which really adds to the European-style feel and gives the restaurant a great ambience. My only criticism would be that the tables are situated very close together so private conversations would be difficult.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- OpenTable Diner Since 2006VIPDined on 7/19/2014I've been wanting to try this place for awhile now---finally got there & it was worth it! Great staff & the food was really quite delicious---from the small bites to the big bites, worth every calorie/pennySpecial Features:
- The Best in QueensAlanDined on 7/18/2014NEVER disappointed. A wonderful experience, as always. Thank goodness for danny brown in our neighborhood.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Deserves its Michelin starSixSigmaBBVIPDined on 7/18/2014I've never had a meal that wasn't great at this restaurant. It is truly very fine French cuisine in a very warm ambiance with lovely hosts. Last night I had one of the most magnificent lobster dishes I've ever had anywhere... one of the specials of the night. Unshelled, in a complex sauce that complemented the lobster better than any I've tasted, made festive by delicate vegetables, tiny mushrooms, and agnolotti that quite literally melted on your tongue...this description just cannot convey the beauty of this dish, but I just can't find adequate words. If you haven't been to this cozy little French bistro, you're depriving yourself.Special Features:
- Later is betterexercisegirlVIPDined on 7/11/2014Danny Brown Wine Bar provides a place to relax and enjoy great wine, delicious food, whether you stop in for a glass of wine and cheese tasting or have a hankering for the small or large plates they offer, you will not be disappointed. Flights of wine are available to expand your palate. We enjoyed a cheese tasting of 3 cheeses, taleggio,valdeo and a special cheese on the menu that evening along with a summer flight of white wine. Delicious! Went on to have a fish special of turbot with a chanterelle mushroom sauce that was out of this world. The only negative is that we had an early dinner that competed with a happy hour crowd at the bar that was loud with the bartender adding pantomime to his talent for serving drinks. Distracting!Special Features:
- Great staffOpenTable Diner Since 2013Dined on 7/8/2014The staff was so attentive to our needs and patient as we figured out our order. In addition, they helped us celebrate a birthday!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- An excellent experienceLindaDined on 7/5/2014We moved to Queens a year ago and have frequented many restaurants, but Danny Brown's is superior in every way. Great food, service, ambiance We will definitely be backSpecial Features:
- Always exceeds my expectationsIluvdiningoutDined on 7/2/2014I ve always looked forward to dining at Danny Browns over the years, and I recently realized that each time the dining experience exceeds my expectations....whether is the a la carte, prix fixe or Mother's Day menu...the food is delicious...and if you like your wine, this is the place to go...whether by the bottle, glass or ordering a flight...and at a fair price. I love this place.Special Features:
- Excellent Metro Ave. Food ChoiceJoePDined on 7/2/2014We were looking for a place to eat dinner in the area. Based upon reviews on this and other sites we narrowed our selections to two and ultimately chose Danny Brown's. We made a 5:30 reservation and arrived around 5:20. The drapes were down and the place appeared a little small and worn from the outside. At 5:30 the drapes were raised, the door was opened, and we were welcomed inside by one of the staff. Once inside, we realized how wrong were our first impressions. The restaurant is much larger than it appears from the outside, and is very nicely decorated. There also is a great looking bar. The food was very well presented and tasty. All our dishes were excellent. My only disappointment was with the cheese tasting appetizer. Too small.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Never failsSixSigmaBBVIPDined on 7/1/2014I wish I could go here more often but I hate dining alone and most of my friends are in Manhattan. I was so glad to see Danny's untouchable gazpacho on the menu. Trust me, you have never had better. The marriage of flavors is indescribable....with that great minted yogurt on top. I had not been in a while, so had to have the chicken under a brick...this from a woman who never orders chicken in a restaurant...except for here. Crispy outside/succulent and moist inside as always. If you've never been there, have this dish your first time. The mascarpone cheesecake I'd never had so had to try. I love mascarpone, but most cheesecakes taste the same to me so I forego them. Not this one! If you haven't been, go!Special Features:
- Great spotCharlesVIPDined on 6/29/2014Started off with charcuterie and cheeses... all terrific. Then had the pappardelle with lamb, mint, and ricotta; less terrific. The menu neglected to mention the dish had olives. Typically don't mind them, but they totally overwhelmed the rest of the dish. Great wine list, well-priced. Overall still great!Special Features:
- WONDERFUL FOOD!galwaygirlDined on 6/28/2014This was my third time at the restaurant. It was chosen for a birthday dinner because it is close to where my father lives (I live far away), everyone attending (including those others who traveled to get there) thought it worth the trip. The food is outstanding--not just for Queens but for ANYWHERE! My mouth waters just thinking about the lobster poached in butter that I had that night (or, for that matter, the skate that I had a year ago. Despite the casual ambiance that suggests neighborhood wine bar, Danny Brown's is also worthy of being a "destination" restaurant.Special Features:
- A jewelBonnieDined on 6/25/2014Danny Brown Wine Bar and Kitchen just celebrated its 8th anniversary of operation. For eight years the restaurant has consistently delivered exceptional food, wine and hospitality. To dine here is a special experience, one that is always treasured. Not only is the food outstandingly delicious but simply beautifully presented. Staff is attentive and kind and the ambience handsome and elegant. The chef owner has consistently developed classic favorites that locals have put on their "last meal on earth lists!" The latest, handmade eggplant ravioli with squash blossoms and a light tomato sauce. Michelin agrees and has already agreed they are stellar!Special Features:
- A wonderful surpriseRiverheadDestinationVIPDined on 6/24/2014The Metropolitan Avenue surroundings in this less than beautiful part of Forest Hills tempers expectations, but you walk through the door of Danny Brown into a stylish and welcoming room anchored by a beautiful bar area and an open kitchen. The prix fixe dinner was excellent value: the salad simple and wonderfully dressed, the swordfish served flavorful and warm, the flourless chocolate cake perfect. If you have occasion to be in Forest Hills, make time for dinner at Danny Brown.
- Hmmm...FinerDinerDined on 6/22/2014Danny Brown's is a favorite of ours, and we have eaten here many times before. The décor is comfortable and relaxing, and the sconces and artwork create a soothing environment. This time was a bit disappointing. The menu is varied with something for everyone. However prices seem higher and portions seem smaller. The beet salad was a disappointment. The burger, on the other hand, was great - robust, delicious, and done to perfection. The wine choices are very good. We had a Malbec, which was delightful and enjoyed by all.Special Features:
- Wonderful mid-week treat!LindaBVIPDined on 6/17/2014Danny Brown's consistently offers the best relaxing cheese and charcuterie boards, hands-down! Superb selections, and wonderful small plates to add on for a hungrier patron. Staff are ALL wonderful and helpful .Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- DisappointedOpenTable Diner Since 2010Dined on 6/15/2014First off, I love this place. Unfortunately, on Father's Day they just dropped the ball. Everything was off and I am angry it had to happen on a special day. My dad ordered the veal, and it was tough. The beans in our calamari appetizer were too hard, when they should be soft and creamy. My swordfish dish needed more salt. The butter served with bread was not room temperature and therefore too hard to spread. I don't know what happened, but it left a bad taste.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Anniversary dinnerluvtoeatDined on 6/12/2014Each time we return to Danny Brown's something has changed and always for the better. This time there were cheese tasting platters as well as cured meats tasting platters:) Add to that their always attentive service, knowledgeable staff, many geographically diverse wine offerings by the glass, as well as the bottle, small plates as well as larger, and use of fresh locally grown produce. Love it!!!!!!!!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Well-deserved 1 Michelin starvroulotDined on 6/10/2014The food is great, the wine list is reasonable and diversified so you can enjoy nice wines, and the service is good.Special Features:
- A Rare FindFamilyRsDined on 6/10/2014Wonderful restaurant for interesting and innovative food. Lovely setting with professional service. One of the top restaurants in Forest Hills.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- For Special NightsJokwayDined on 6/8/2014I was looking originally for a tapas place. This restaurant has that, but then someC without getting out of hand or focus with the menu.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- A gemBullhorn429Dined on 6/7/2014I've been to this Jewel of a restaurant a few times now for dinner and it truly is a wonderful experience. The service and wine list is excellent, the ambience is vibrant and alive but fitting for a Saturday night out for two as well. The kitchen is open which creates a more casual Atmosphere in a restaurant that serves 5 star food. My husband and I shared a 5 cheese cheese board and reminisced about France and Spain. The homemade Pastas were perfectly cooked and the desserts were delicious and a sweet way to end the meal. The dessert wines (I had a red dessert wine flight) was fun and complimented our sweets. Will go again and again but not too often, as it is easier To drop a good amount of $... Then again, It's Worth every Penny!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

When I was young I felt really overwhelmed and confused by the desire not to end up in an office, doing something I didn't believe in.
No matter what you believe in or you believe in nothing. ...
I believe in the sun even when it is not shining. I believe in love even when not feeling it. I believe in God even when he is silent.

Is the sheer number of individuals who are so incredibly ignorant and devoid of any understanding of dogmatic Islamic ideology and philosophy -- and then go on to create an extremely distorted perspective of the situation in Gaza without proper understanding of the reality at hand.
Have you READ the Qu'ran? Do you know what Sharia law is? Do you know this religion is bigoted beyond comprehension, at complete odds with the rest of the free world? That to this day they will stone women and gays? Do you understand Palestine is a word created in recent history to reflect displaced Arabs that mostly subscribe to this ideology???
Or will you continue to bark the same shit without educating yourself?
If you do not know what the true face of the religion is about, DO NOT OPINE about Israel and its operation in Gaza, because you have ABSOLUTELY NO CLUE WHAT YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT OR REFERRING TO.
THIS IS NOT ANY KIND OF TRADITIONAL WAR OF SIDE A vs. SIDE B.
When you fully understand that radical Islam is a WORLD DOMINATING, FREEDOM HATING IDEOLOGY that is akin to mental illness on the order of dementia, and teaches prevarication and deceit is the way to subdue all that DO NOT BELIEVE IN IT, you will understand that ISRAEL IS NOT FIGHTING A WAR WITH OTHER HUMANS.
It is fighting a war against a PSYCHOSIS that unfortunately will place innocent civilians -- including women and children -- in its path at ALL COSTS -- to ADVANCE ITS IDEOLOGY.
So please, do yourself and this forum a favor and shut your incredibly naive mouth until you are fully educated on the topic. Cease and desist from casting blind blame in the wrong direction and promulgating bullshit. You're no better than the mainstream media.

Thanksgiving Decorating: How to Green Your Thanksgiving Décor
November 13, 2013
To me, store bought décor just doesn't make the cut (no pun intended). For one, it can be pricey, and this is one time of year many of us are trying to save a penny or two where we can. Secondly, purchased decor often times lacks character, hominess and warmth. Why would I want my home to look just everyone else's – that's pretty boring, isn't it? Most importantly, store bought décor, be it any time of year, is often made from harmful materials that not only damage the environment, but also our health.
Going green with your Thanksgiving décor has no bounds — it can be as simple as collecting pinecones from your own yard and adorning them with paint and glitter, to a felted and whimsical autumnal wreath like you see above. Here are five simple ways to transform your home this Thanksgiving with effortless eco style…(1 Comment)
10 Steps To Lower Your Eco Footprint
September 6, 2013
10 Steps to Lower Your Eco FootprintOnce upon a time I had no concept of the importance of preserving natural resources. I consumed what I wanted with no thought of recycling, reducing or reusing. I lived my life without consideration of the consequences for my actions or lack thereof. I had no idea what my eco footprint was, or what that even meant. When I realized I needed to take an environmental science class in college I was indifferent. I went into the class hoping for an easy A, I hoped that I could breeze through the class. How little did I know! I never expected that one college course would impact my life on a profound level; that it would change the way I view the world around me and the way I live my life. I had no idea that the course would awaken a passion within me for the environment, preservation and conservation.I began to learn about my carbon footprint within the first day of class. When I realized how my lifestyle impacted the world around me and how someday my children would inherit this world from me I was moved to begin making changes to lower my eco footprint and to educate others about the small steps we can all take to make this world a better place. I would love to share 10 steps you can take to lower your eco footprint in hopes that you can begin living a greener life.Continue reading (2 Comments)
Sustainability At Southmost
March 31, 2014
When he pulled out the homemade wine, I knew I was in for a doozy of a day. I was sitting in the cluttered, 1980's-esque office of Max Pons. A tall, narrow-faced Texan with just a hint of that unforgettable drawl, Max poured his wine out of a Snapple container into a plastic medicine cup with a subtle grin. We brought our cups together, guzzled the delicious drink, and set out to explore a piece of property unlike any other in the United States.
Max Pons is the preserve manager of the Lennox Foundation Southmost Preserve, a 1,034 acre parcel of protected land occupying the southernmost part of the continental United States. The property is bordered on three sides by the Rio Grande, while the infamous (and unsightly) border fence separates the preserve from the rest of the country. Some of the last native sabal palm forest left in the United States can be found there, as can many animal species found nowhere else in the country. That's the reason I traveled over 2,000 miles to pay this place a visit. It was with timid excitement that I parked my trusty rental van and began exploring this Nature Conservancy preserve with my eccentric, but brilliant, guide.
Slowing Down The White Gold Rush: The Elephant Poaching Problem And What You Can Do About It
January 23, 2014
The last few years have not been kind to African elephants. Recent estimates put the number of African elephants killed since 2011 at over 50,000. The total number of both African elephant species (forest and savanna) is estimated to be around 550,000 individuals spread out over Earth's second largest continent. See the problem?
The surge in killings is directly tied to a surge in demand. The gleaming tusks that elephants use to push down trees, dig for minerals, and battle rival males are their downfall. Wealthy consumers from East Asian countries, such as China and The Philippines, often like to decorate their houses with ivory carvings, representing anything from religious figures to, ironically, elephants. Those who purchase these carvings are frequently unaware that intelligent animals were shot repeatedly, young elephants were left orphaned and grieving, and several international laws were broken to get that ivory into their home.
West Virginia's Toxic Water Problem: What would you do without a good water source?
January 21, 2014
While 300,000 people are doubtful about having clean water tonight in West Virginia, the rest of us can only imagine what it would be like to not bathe, drink, brush our teeth, clean our dishes, clothes or even give our animals the life-giving liquid we all know as water. What happened to the Elk River is reminiscent of the BP Oil Spill, also known as the United State's Greatest Environmental Tragedy. Both instances brought clean water, something the majority of U.S. citizens take for granted, to the fore front of our nation's conscience
Clean water in our nation is mandatory for the population majority. Without clean, running water our homes and businesses can be declared uninhabitable by the states we live in...but it wasn't always this way. Whom do we have to thank for being able to trust the H2O that streams out of our taps?

January 2, 2014
As the Obama Administration works to remove the Gray Wolf from the Endangered species list, states who have been managing their Gray Wolf packs have seen several outcomes from the 1996 experiment to reintroduce the once native species into the United States.
One is a large increase in the wolf population. Currently, the country has an approximate total of 6,100 wolves with 4, 432 in the Great Lakes region, including Minnesota and Wisconsin. Idaho has the largest Gray Wolf population with 683 wolves and at least 117 packs in 2012, with Montana following closely behind with 625 of the predators and 277 in Wyoming. Idaho also has the largest amount of livestock loss due to wolves.
As Idaho struggles to find a balance between ranchers and the wolves, one possible byproduct has been the rise of wolf "teenage thugs" due to the loss of adult role models and pack leaders.

Wow, too bad these houses were owned by people who stole for them..I wish I could afford these.. but I guess I am too honest.. speaking of affordable, the whole theme for the Holidays is "low cost".. down to the great gifts I am buying.. I got these hilarious cookbooks for everyone.. all under $15! they are a bit unpc so I won't tell you the titile here.. but I can't wait to see the look on my Mother in Law's face when she opens it.. google Whipped and beaten culinary works" to find it.. but don't go if you can't take a good joke..
Some people have that sadistic need to live in a place where **** really went down. A constant reminder of what exactly happend in the house you live in.
The though that people have suffered here or that this is where an infamous person lived seems to have that excitement to it. Most people would stray away from houses where people have died or houses with bad reputations in their history, however by putting it up like this in an article, prices, history, and all. Those who are for that sort of thing will really be considering the possibility to buy an infamous house.
Myself included.
you can't multiply wealth by deviding it.
have you ever seen a person on welfare and food stamps have any employees?
when are we going to hire "successful" business leaders run the country?
there should be a limit on how many years or terms an individual can suck the public tit in congress.
I heard somewhere that 80% of non whites voted aganist white, if so and we wonder what is wrong with our country.
many of our leader politicians, never had an employee, never borrowed a million to hope to be successful in a business that provided jobs, and was educated on the public nipple, and, we hire them to run the country, Wow!!!
I still think Sam Snead was and will always will be the greatest golfer ever, and Ben Hogan was second, and, ------- all the other way down the list.

The Richland County Coroner has released the names of a couple found shot to death outside a home on Coralbean Way Friday.
Coroner Gary Watts said Saturday 50-year-old Steven Moseley and his estranged wife, 44-year-old Reynettia Moseley, died at the house.
Richland County Sheriff's deputies are trying to piece together what happened to push Moseley to shoot his estranged wife and turn the gun on himself.
Sheriff's Department spokesperson Curtis Wilson says deputies responding to a shots fired call in the Brookhaven subdivision discovered a woman and a man dead near the front door of a home in the 1200 block of Coralbean Way.
The scene is a few miles from Farrow Road and Interstate 77.
The coroner said Reynettia Moseley was shot several times in the upper body just after 9 a.m. Watts said Steven Moseley died of a single gunshot wound to the head.
Deputies believe Moseley showed up at the home just after his estranged wife dropped her two children off at school. He confronted her and then fired the shots, investigators said.
"We do believe it was domestic-related," said deputy Curtis Wilson. "That they had some issues prior to this situation."
Deputies say the woman had just moved into the home a few weeks ago.
For Ron Hilton, the shooting was a bit too close to home. One of the bullets fired across the street, made its way through the wall of his house, and into his 7-year-old's playroom.
"It went through there, ricocheted off the wall. They found it laying right there," said Hilton, pointing to the spot where the bullet landed.
Hilton didn't know the victim, and he says neighbors keep to themselves out here. As firefighters did their work, Hilton spent the afternoon patching the bullet hole and hoping his 7-year-old wouldn't ask questions.
Hilton has questions of his own, like what will become of two teens whose lives have changed.
"Now these children have to be picked up from school and told what happened. Not just one parent is gone, but both parents are gone," said Hilton. It's a senseless act."

A job well done, indeed- where the astronaut is using the arc tools really stands out. The addition of the holographic images adds a realism to the work, and the presence in space is quite strong and real. There is a sense of struggle of the astronaut to complete the task in a timely manner without sacrificing quality or mistakes comes across strongly- its the best part of the work in its presentation.

If you're the first born child, you have something to hold over your brother and sisters' heads. According to a new study, you're likely to be the smartest!
And it's all because parents are apparently stricter on first born children when it comes to school.
The study was conducted by the National Bureau For Economic Research.
It found that most parents pay more attention, and even punish first borns for having bad grades.
Researchers also say that their tests confirmed most first-borns had the highest IQs.
Parents were also more lax with the rules for the younger kids. Therefore, instead of dedicating more time to homework, the younger kids were allowed to watch tv or play video games, more often than the first child.
33.8% of mothers surveyed also claim that their first born was one of best in their class, whereas only 1.8% of mothers put their first born at the bottom. 31.8% said that their second born child was best in class, 29% said their third born son was best in class, and only 27.2 percent said that their fourth born son was best in class.

Our Sultan Suites Stay
My daughter and I had a wonderful 10 night stay at the beautiful Sultan Suites. Nafiye, the owner, was the perfect hostess! After a long flight from the States and what felt like an even longer wait at passport control, she greeted us at the apartment with wine, cheese and fruit. Our main apartment was on the top floor and overlooked the Golden Horn from the living room and balcony. My daughter had her own smaller but equally fabulous apartment on the first floor. Our apartments were outfitted in Ottoman style and were warm, comfortable and very elegant. The woodworking, crystal chandeliers and intricate paintings are lovely. Bedrooms are situated on a quiet back street facing the Greek Orthodox Patriarchate (not to be missed). There was plenty of cupboard space to unpack everything and stow the luggage. The kitchen is very well-equipped and the washer/dryer was a big plus for our long stay. We loved the wonderful Haman baths. What is not mentioned in the apartment description is that there are also rain showers! I also need to mention the beautiful Turkish towels and wonderful soaps that Nafiye supplied. The location was perfect for us. You are within walking distance of the main old city sites, but far enough away so that you can escape the din. There is a wonderful waterfront walk to the well-known historical attractions. You can also walk street-side, but be advised that you will need to walk in the street, at times. Crossing some streets can be an adventure. There are restaurants close by and one of Atatürk's favorite spots is right around the corner. Be sure to have breakfast on the rooftop. There is also a cozy restaurant on the bottom floor of the apartment building with a good breakfast and gracious owners. Thanks to Nafiye, we were able to enjoy an experience beyond the usual tourist spots and are very grateful for her generosity. You can always stay in a hotel, or tag along with a tour group, but the opportunity to become immersed in local culture and have a unique and authentic experience is not to be missed. We can't wait to return.
Great experiance
Just next to the Galata tower this beautiful appartment has everything thats necessary at a great price! Will go again!!!
Good view and quality
I liked that it was walking distance from all the major attractions. You really don't have to take a cab or metro or anything. you can walk anywhere from this hotel as it is in the center of the city. The view from the balcony is amazing as you are looking at Bosphorus.

HUNTSVILLE - The season for the Huntsville Otters is turning out to be a forgettable one.
The Georgian Bay Mid Ontario Junior C Hockey League team is mired in an eight-game losing slide and has reached the midway point of the 2012-2013 season in last place overall with a 4-17 record.
"You just got to keep plugging away," said head coach Monty Clouthier. "We have to keep trucking along ... we just can't give up."
Losses seven and eight came at home this past weekend against two of the better teams in the league. The South Division-leading Caledon Golden Hawks topped Huntsville 6-4 in front of a reported crowd of 120 Saturday night at the Don Lough Arena, with the Central Division's best, the Midland Flyers, trouncing the Otters 11-1 Sunday afternoon before 130 Huntsville faithful.
Caledon appeared to set to take a 2-0 lead into the first intermission until Ben Muckler scored with exactly one minute remaining in the first to make it a 2-1 score.
The Hawks went back up by two early in the second period until Muckler counted his second of the night to close the gap to one goal again. But the visitors reclaimed that two-goal cushion before the end of the second, with the count 4-2.
Caledon pushed the score to 6-2 before the midway point of the third when Carter Tracey and Brodie Muckler scored for Huntsville, the last goal coming less than three minutes remaining.
Goalie Tye Greschuk made 28 saves in the Huntsville net.
"Caledon is one of the top teams in the league," Clouthier said. "We played a great game on Saturday and we were in the game. We out-shot them, we out-chanced them during five-on-five situations."
Newly signed Ryan West chipped in two assists in his first game as an Otter, but was ill for the game on Sunday and didn't suit up.
The game probably left a few Huntsville players and fans feeling a little ill, as the Flyers built up period leads of 5-0 and 10-0 on the way to their 15th win of the season. Tracey scored the Otters' lone goal, a shorthanded, unassisted tally in the third period.
Greschuck started the game, but gave way to backup Landan Peleikis. However, Peleikis was struck with a shot in the jaw, according to Clouthier, and may be out due to a possible concussion.
The team was also without Ben Muckler, who was sitting out the first of a one-game suspension, after he was assessed a head-contact misconduct in the second period against Caledon.
The team lost Brenden Fitter in the second period of Sunday's game for a fighting infraction. He will miss Friday's game in Erin against the Devils. Jack Campbell will also miss Friday's game for his part in second period fight on Sunday. Brandon Quo Vadis will be out the next three games after he was assessed a fighting instigator major in the Flyers' game.

Today was the first day of an entire week off from both work AND school. Although I only have seven days to myself until I need to be back at my desk, I feel like a giddy kid who has her entire summer break ahead. It is so rare to have nothing to do…so luxurious and lovely. Instead of traveling, we decided to take a Staycation: lots of staying in and relaxing at home.
In order to maximize this time, I immediately made a to-do list, all starting with the letter S.
1. Slow cooking. The gas in my building has been shut off for over three months (long story), so I've developed quite a fond relationship with my slow cooker. In fact, I lovingly call her my wife because when I get home from work, she's got dinner waiting for me. In the last two days, my "wife" has cooked: a brown sugar ham, creamed corn and now she's gently simmering split pea soup. The apartment smells divine. Up next is my re-creation of a delicious bolognese sauce made for me by my friend and fellow B-School Babe Chris, founder of S2S Advisory and a Thunderbird MBA.
2. Schoolbook selling. I'm a big fan of selling my textbooks Amazon.com, mainly because they gave me a year of Amazon Prime for FREE as a student (now available at a 50% discount), but also because I can list my books at really great prices. My accounting textbook brought in $150, probably because it was still in "pristine condition." Yes, that says a lot about how studious I am.
3. Sing-a-longing. My husband bought a guitar and is learning to master it for a part that he's playing on stage next month. Although I'm not the one singing in the house, I get to be the recipient and subject matter of his renditions of blues songs, improvised lyrics and general silliness inspired by the instrument. The last song that crossed his lips was his version of Otherside by Red Hot Chili Peppers.
4. Sports clubbing. My beloved yoga studio recently closed it doors and I've been practicing yoga in my living room on my own, but it is time that I try to find a new fitness center. I will be activating a trial pass for a nearby New York Sports Club tomorrow. Elliptical and free weights, here I come.
5. Shower registering. I'm not big on shopping, but I'd like to take this next week to complete my baby registries while I have time to read reviews on baby products, a shopping category that is totally foreign to me. I simply don't know enough about which car seat or breast pump or swaddling blanket is better…and I tend to be a picky eco-snob, which complicates matters. If anyone has suggestions on what to buy or even pre-made list of "must haves," I'm all ears. Show me the way, mamas.
Looks like I've got a packed week ahead. Of course, along with these five things, I plan to do plenty of Sleeping and Snuggling as well.
Happy Holidays, everyone! Hope you're enjoying your time off too.

Here's a surefire way to keep the romance -- and not your waistline -- booming.
JJ Virgin: Cupid isn't stupid. He knows that there is nothing worse on Valentine's Day than a heavy meal that ensures that your honey is passed out in front of a "Law & Order" rerun by 9 p.m.
This column is dedicated to making sure that the moms reading it have a very romantic, perhaps late-late night with their significant others on February 14.
First things first: Don't do the big spaghetti-and-meatballs dinner at the local Italian restaurant. If you're gonna unzip your pants, make sure it's for reasons of romance -- and not because you're so bloated that it's either unbutton or risk cutting off circulation.
By the way, the flipside is eating and feeding your mate foods that are natural aphrodisiacs to up your romance factor. Keep clicking for a few of my top choices for a very sexy evening!
Sexy Foods for (Much More) Than Thought
Why: They are rich in folic acid, vitamin B6 and potassium. Together these help boost libido. Add slices to your salad or serve some guacamole with crudities to nibble on.
Why: The aroma is said to arouse passion in females. They're high in vitamin E, magnesium and fiber and are regarded as fertility nuts. Serve them as an appetizer or toss slivered ones on top of berries for a delicious dessert. You can also do the easy veggie dish of sauteed green beans with almond slices.
Why: It has a fantastic aroma that has an aphrodisiac effect and is also very stimulating. Add it to your pasta sauce over spaghetti squash (not white pasta) for a romantic night and to get your partner's heart racing.
Dark Chocolate
Why: It has a host of compounds including theobromine (a vasodilator which helps with blood flow) and PEA (phenylethylamine) known as the love chemical, which releases dopamine in the pleasure center of the brain. PEA is said to help induce feelings of excitement, attraction and euphoria. Cacao also contains tryptophan, a key component in the neurotransmitter serotonin. You can sit by the fire and feed each other bits of dark chocolate or try the recipe below for a healthy, sexy, delicious Val Day dessert.
For An Extra Treat.
Baked Apple Delight: Skip the crust and make baked apples by chopping three apples (peeled or not). Toss with cinnamon and walnuts. Then put in a pie pan, drizzle with half a cup of coconut milk and bake for 20 to 30 minutes at 350 degrees for a warm, sweet dessert. Shave a little bit of dark chocolate on top and watch it melt in. It's a wonderful, warm, sweet treat.
Why: It's full of allicin, an ingredient that increases blood flow. Add garlic when cooking meats, chicken and fish.
Why: This is a popular aphrodisiac said to increase sexual desire because of its high zinc content, which helps produce sperm and increases libido. Serve them raw.
Happy love fest!

FOX 5 anchor Amanda Davis had her first court hearing on Monday in Atlanta Traffic Court following her November 11 DUI arrest.
Davis did not make an appearance in the courtroom. She was represented at the hearing by her attorney, William Head. He asked that the hearing be reset.
"The next step is to come back to this hearing on the ninth of January, and at that time we'll either have something in place once we've investigated to try to present to the prosecutor. We'll try to do that ahead of time. Right now, we're still investigating the rest of the facts," said Head.
Davis faces a charge of DUI, reckless driving, and driving in the wrong lane following a recent car accident.
FOX 5 News Vice President Mike McClain released a statement on Monday afternoon saying, "Amanda Davis is currently away from the television station handling personal matters."

When I was a yoiung man, there had always been a stigma that surrounded your career choices. You could be a policeman, a teacher, a doctor or a lawyer, but to choose a career as a plumber, an electricitan, a carpenter or a hairdresser wasn't supposed to be your first option—at least in my family.
As the years went on, and life's circumstances slowly started to unfold, it became clear to me that my life path had led me to becoming exactly what I was told I shouldn't be—a hairdresser. At first, I figured, "This will be a breeze." But little did I know, I had no real idea of what I was signing up for.
Like many of the choices we make in life, we are often unaware of what lies behind closed doors, until we open them. the fear of what is to come, for me, is met time and time again with the thought, "I'm glad I opened that door and took a leap of faith." Whatever the oucome, there always came a general knowledge anf fulfillment, allowing me to reflect on the decision to opten the door and know that it's better to take a chance on something good, than never knowing at all.
Many years have passed since I decded to become a hairdresser, and more importantly, many more doors have been opened. Still to some, I'm just a hairdresser, but for me, I am blessed. To be a hairdresser has allowed me to experience a life that has evolved into a conviction of pride, happiness and completion as a man. I have been blessed with a wife of 27 years, three beautiful children, many friends and a career that could make any policeman, teacher, doctor or lawyer envious.
Each morning when I awake, I delve into my daily routine of waiting for my morning newspaper, pouring a fresh cup of coffee and giving myself a little time to peruse and reflect on the day's haedlines.
In recent weeks, it's not just the day's headlines that I've been reflecting on. Unfortunaately, it's been on many of the sadder conversations I have with my clients and colleagues. I've been incredibly touched and saddened by the losses of some of our industry peers and clients' loved ones.
My years as a hairdresser have afforded me the ability to listen to many memories and stories, and I have felt privelged as I've been an ear for my clients and customers. For me, my clients have become an intricate part of my life, and also a part of my daily routine. Yet, when I turn the pages of my morning newspaper and come to the obituaries, it's at a moment that I look over the names with a glance, always in fear of seeing a neame that I recognize.

This year, Feeding America, the nation's leading hunger relief charity, named Bank of America its Corporate Partner of the Year for 2012. Our partnership with Feeding America is now in its fifth year, and helps support its nationwide food distribution and consumer outreach programs like SNAP, the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program. Today, the Feeding America network of 200 food banks provides food to 37 million Americans annually, including 14 million children and 3 million seniors.
Last year, Bank of America helped raise almost $3.5 million in individual and company donations for Feeding America through our Gift for Opportunity™ fund. We seeded the fund with an initial $1 million donation. And holiday season fund donations from customers and employees—helped by a 2:1 bank matching-gifts program—resulted in more than 26 million meals provided to individuals and families.
The face of hunger in America
The number of Americans who are struggling to get adequate food—who are experiencing "food insecurity"—remains at a stubbornly high rate. With food prices rising, individuals are often forced to make difficult choices between food, rent and medical care.
Here in the U.S. there is a new face of hunger, with a different demographic coming to the doors of food pantries. Fewer are homeless—only 10%. Many live in the suburbs, not in urban neighborhoods, and hold down jobs. (36% of households served by Feeding America's network include at least one working adult.) They may be invisible to their neighbors, but they still need the support of food banks or government programs to secure the food they need to feed their families.
Ironically, there are ample resources in the U.S. to feed everyone. But that outcome is hampered by poor distribution and underutilized government programs. According to Peter Shaefer, CEO of the Northern Illinois Food Bank, "it's not a question of food or services, it's a question of will, money, focus, effort, and volunteers—such as the bank and its associates—coming to attack the problem."
A longstanding and comprehensive approach
At Bank of America, the issue of hunger is one we have addressed since 1985 through local initiatives and employee matching gifts—and through our partnership with Feeding America since 2008. We have supported hunger relief because it is a critical need, but also because it carries significant economic consequences. When individuals and families don't have enough to eat it affects their ability to hold down jobs or take advantage of educational opportunities, undercutting the stability of communities.
Our efforts to eradicate hunger are broad. We provide financial support through grants to nonprofits—a total of $20 million since 2008. And we rely on our volunteers to get involved in emergency feeding programs and food banks. Last year, for example, Bank of America employees donated 1.5 million hours of their time to community and nonprofit organizations, including many that provide hunger relief.
The bank's approach is holistic. We support efforts that range from emergency safety net programs to strategies that help individuals be economically self-sufficient. Says Kerry Sullivan, President of the Bank of America Charitable Foundation, "At the bank, our commitment to the issue of hunger has been a longstanding one, and one we intend to honor for many years to come. We are always looking for new, innovative and meaningful ways to be help those at risk of hunger—to be part of the solution."
Quick facts on hunger in America
- 49 million people, or 1 in 6, have poor access to food
- Of those, 16 million are children
- Nearly 4 million people who are 60 or older are experiencing food insecurity
- Demand for emergency food assistance has increased from 2006 to 2010, with food prices rising by 6% and fuel prices by over 26%.

Commenting on the event, Harish Babu, Managing Director, Impresario Event Management said: "Impresario put up the entire structure and plan, taking into consideration the suggestions put forward by the committee. The conference was eco-friendly, creating a green concept with the use of plastics and flex boards kept to a minimum. Every year, AIOS conducts this conference at different destinations. Once a destination is chosen, they call for a multi-agency pitch. Impresario was chosen by them among few other event managers, because of the way we presented the planning and execution."
The conference, which followed the theme 'Vision of tomorrow's India' and was addressed by international delegates, was held at 10 halls of the resort along with a simultaneous trade exhibition within the compound. The event comprised of a four-day conference, trade exhibitions and refreshment.
The event commenced with the lighting of the lamp by Shashi Tharoor, MP, followed by a performance by Colonial Cousins, Hariharan and Leslie. There were also many entertainment stalls set up for the families who accompanied the 5,000 delegates.

Penzey's Is Coming To The Bay Area!
Attention, Bay Area spice lovers. That ubiquitous spice emporium, Penzey's, is opening their first Bay Area location soon, in Menlo Park.
While it's convenient to be able to order via the Internet, sometimes it's nice to go to an actual store. A spice store where you can walk in and smell every single spice sounds pretty good to us. We're excited! The new store should be open by the end of the month, and we can't wait to go check it out.
3 Comments
I've never heard of them before. Do they sell bulk spices?
That is good news. I moved to the Bay Area from D.C. a month ago and was totally stunned that, of all places, this area with such foodie pride lacked a Penzey's - the standard spice shop chain.
I loved walking in to the one back home and being hit with the lush, intense aromas and thinking of the possibilities from all those options. Yum.
I used to go to the original Penzey's in WI. Their spices are top-notch, much better than any grocery store (even WF), and not much more expensive. This is fabulous news for me, now that I live in San Francisco!!! Woo hoo!
