Jon Lee Anderson (born January 15, 1957) is an American biographer, author, international investigative reporter, war correspondent and staff writer for The New Yorker, reporting from warzone locales such as Afghanistan, Iraq, Uganda, Israel, El Salvador, Ireland, Lebanon, Iran, and throughout the Middle East. Anderson has also written for The New York Times, Harper's, Life, and The Nation. Anderson is renowned for his numerous profiles of political leaders, including Hugo Chavez, Fidel Castro, and Augusto Pinochet.[1]
Personal life and early career[edit]
The son of Dr. Joy Anderson, a children's book author and University of Florida teacher, and of John Anderson, a diplomat and agricultural adviser for USAID and the Peace Corps, Anderson was raised and educated in South Korea, Colombia, Taiwan, Indonesia, Liberia, England, and the United States. His brother is Scott Anderson, a novelist and journalist, and they have co-authored two books.[2] He currently resides in Dorset, England with his wife, Erica, and three children: Bella, Rosie and Máximo.[citation needed]
Anderson began working as a reporter in 1979 for the Lima Times in Peru. During the 1980s he covered Central America, first for the syndicated columnist Jack Anderson and later for Time magazine.[citation needed]
Anderson is also the author of the best-selling and definitive 800 + page biography of the iconic Marxist revolutionary Che Guevara. Entitled Che Guevara: A Revolutionary Life, it was first published in 1997. While researching the book in Bolivia, he discovered the hidden location of Guevara's burial from where his skeletal remains were exhumed in 1997 and returned to Cuba.[citation needed]

Literary reception[edit]
Despite its widespread acclaim[3][4] as a New York Times Notable Book of the Year and many reprints, in her 1997 critique of Che Guevara: A Revolutionary Life, U.S. author Jane Franklin claims "...Anderson never quite communicates an understanding of why Guevara remains such a powerful presence. Relying too much on secondary sources for his knowledge of Cuban history, he fails to grasp the nature of the revolution for which Guevara, Fidel Castro and so many others were willing to die."[5] Conversely, author Peter Canby states, "...Anderson does a masterly job in evoking Che's complex character, in separating the man from the myth and in describing the critical role Che played in one of the darkest periods of the cold war. Ultimately, however, the strength of his book is in its wealth of detail."[4]
In the Washington Monthly, Matthew Harwood's review of The Fall of Baghdad was full of praise, "...his crisp and lush prose reads more like a work of literature than like reportage. But for all its literary beauty, the book's real power lies in its narrative strategy."[6]

A nifty caper film that is drenched in atmosphere -- both of its location and its era -- Any Number Can Win is a treat for those who relish heist flics. Unlike many other films in this genre, Number doesn't belabor its plot. Oh, sure, the details of the cape are gone over and stressed, but there's a languid approach to the film, courtesy of director Henri Verneuil, that seems to say, "Yes, yes, the plot is interesting, but not more so than the way that Alain Delon approaches that girl by the pool or the manner in which Jean Gabin takes in his accomplice's actions." In other words, the characters are as intriguing to Verneuil as the plot, and he is not at all afraid to linger over scenes to capture details and nuances that may not greatly affect the story's outcome but which flesh out the people marvelously. Of course, with Gabin and Delon on hand, there's plenty to work with. Gabin's craggy but still striking face conveys torrents of emotion and meaning with the slightest grimace, and there's subtle power in everything the man does. Delon was at the height of his physical beauty here, and he uses that stunning appeal to great affect, never more so than when he is seeing his charm amusingly fail to register as expected. The supporting cast is quite good, and the ultra-1960's-chic setting is delightful, even in black-and-white. Michael Magne's cool jazz score is also worth noting.

Roundup: Patterned Floors
Area rugs, wallpaper, pillows and throws are a few ways to bring pattern into your home, but have you thought about giving your whole floor the pattern treatment? Granted, this isn't something that's easy for renters to do (although we do know of at least one way to create a non-permanent patterned floor). A stenciled, painted, or tiled floor represents a big commitment...but the payoff can really be worth it. Click below for a few examples:
3 Comments
I took nine colors of FLOR's House Pet in shades of blue, green, gray and black and made a wall-to-wall Sudoku puzzle in my living room. Fabulous. All about color on the floor. Walls are ultra pure white natch.
That striped floor is trippy -- as in, trip and fall on your face, it's so dizzying.
how about marmoleum click? area rugs--ditto. that flor idea sounds cute--is it on flickr?

Taking photos is about capturing memories and preserving moments in time, for me, for myself and for my work. The photos that tell stories on this little travel blog of ours aren't mine. It's Terence, the professional photographer in our partnership, who takes the beautiful pictures, and because I do more of the writing my images are made hastily, often with little thought.
My mission when I pick up a camera or increasingly an iPhone, whether it's to take a 'happy snap' (what I call our personal travel photos) or a 'memory shot' (my name for my work pictures, for shots of meals, hotel rooms, signs, and the like) is to simply safeguard the image – the activity, the experience, whatever it is I'm seeing before my eyes – to create a reference point, so I don't forget.
I don't worry too much about the aesthetics and rarely concern myself about the technical side of things. Although I have to admit I did study some photography when I was young, before I studied film, but I think most of what I learnt is packed away in my Ultimo storage unit – along with our old clothes, travel mementoes, and photo albums. Remember those?
There are a couple of reasons I don't care as much as I could or should. One reason is because I'm simply too busy. I'm pitching stories, coordinating trips, making plans, taking notes, and writing and blogging, and when the plans go wrong, which they often can, whether it's because of bad weather, lack of time, transport strikes, or simply poor arrangements made in the first place, I'm busy doing it all over again.
The other explanation is that it all seems too hard – which is no doubt partly connected to the first reason. While I need to document everything we do, the last thing I want to be worried about is learning how to use a complicated camera. That explains partly why I increasingly use my iPhone instead of my camera, which tends to stay in my Samsonite most of the time.
I also don't want anything big and bulky like Terence's Nikons to lug about. I have enough crap to carry and most of the time I've got a notebook and phone in my hand. When it comes to taking pictures I want something compact – okay, let's say small – something nice and tiny that can fit in the palm of my hand, be slipped into a pocket, or squeezed into a purse.
Of course what this means is that there are always regrets – blurry shots, out-of-focus images, important bits of the frame cut out, and pictures without the detail I wanted when I went to take the thing in the first place. And let's face it, the regrets come partly because I do have a good eye – I was once a filmmaker in a former life – and I can take a pretty decent photo when I try.
So when Terence takes extraordinary images, like these pictures he took last year of Buddhist monks in Bangkok, and these too of monks in Luang Prabang, I'm always wishing I had a good little camera so I could have attempted to take some half-as-good images too.
Which is why I'm pretty excited about having been invited to enter Sony's 'No More Bad Photos' competition and why I'm over the moon at having the opportunity to win their sexy little – and, yes, it's miniscule! – new Cyber-shot DSC-HX20V camera.
Not only is it as compact as a high-quality camera is ever going to get, it has all sorts of nifty features like a whopping 18.2 mega-pixels, a 20x optical zoom – and up to 40x clear image zoom! – and, for the former filmmaker in this girl, a full HD movie-making ability! Plus, there's also a GPS setting, which should come in super-handy for all the documentation I have to do for our travel writing work.
If only I would have had that little camera in my hands when we were in Bangkok for the mass alms-giving ceremony on Visakha Bucha Day last year, when I took the grainy picture above with my iPhone. Or even when I was watching the alms giving to the monks in Luang Prabang. Unfortunately I have no images to show you from that experience, as they were all bad, taken from far too far away, as I tried hard to keep my distance in an endeavour to demonstrate my respect and be discrete.
With the smart new Sony Cyber-shot DSC-HX20V camera I could have maintained that respectful distance that I believe is important to keep as a traveller – it's not my role to interfere or get in the way of people practicing their religion, their rituals, and their culture. I could have captured images that had more power and more drama with the neat panorama tool. I could have ensured I didn't miss a second of the experience with the incredibly high speed auto-focus. And most importantly, for me, I could have kept far away yet got close enough to create images that were sharp enough to preserve the sublime moments in time that inspire you as a traveller to get out and experience the world.
If I win this competition, Sony will give me the opportunity to go back and re-shoot a Buddhist alms-giving ceremony. And you can help me have that chance.
What do you have to do?
- Simply leave a comment below by Sunday 17th June letting me know how you think I could improve the photo above if I get the chance to take it again.
- Better yet, how might I use my new Sony Cyber-shot to take a better picture under the same circumstances?
- I have an incentive for you too… the best comment left below wins a Sony Cyber-shot DSC-HX20V camera. Check it out here! That's right, I have two of them – one in each palm of my hand!
- This contest ends at midnight on 17 June 2012. It's only open to Australian residents.
- NOTE: This competition has now closed and judging is currently underway. Good luck everyone!

Boston gardeners work long hours, including early mornings and holidays, at a dirty job — quietly, patiently creating areas of beauty in our city. Now it's payback time.
This past week judges of the Mayor's Annual Garden Contest have been fanning out throughout the city, struggling to locate street numbers and follow Googlemap's directions through Boston's unique spiderweb of streets, on a mission to find and view gardens of every description, from planters at a marina to a rooftop garden, from an elegant storefront to community garden vegetables, from a streetside windowbox to a formal garden. They are viewing the garden work of the finalists in the 2011 Mayor's Annual Garden Contest. These are the five top contestants in the city in each of the 11 categories in this year's competition.
Among the gardeners to be listed as finalists are JP's Jamie Day, whose porch plantings on the second floor of a triple decker off Perkins Street are visible from all over the neighborhood, and John Walsh, who lives in JP but gardens at the Saranac Garden in the Southwest Corridor, where he has created a classic garden in the French tradition.
Jamie and his wife Deidre bought their JP condo from friends three years ago, and in the process took over the plantings that were part of the charm of the condo. Jamie comes from a family of gardeners in Asheville, N.C., so working with plants was not new to him, but it took a year or two to get the porch plantings just right. Jamie and Deidre spend a lot of time on the porch, so it was important to get the mix of green privacy screen and colorful flowers right for their own enjoyment, but Jamie said that it is also important to him to give something to the neighborhood. The greenery on their porch — flowing waves of densely planted sweet potato vine topped by hanging ferns, fuchsia and supertunias, among other plants — stands out to anyone looking down Parkton Street.
While his wife may think it's a little crazy that no matter how tired he is when he gets home, he goes out to water the plants every day, Jamie takes a lot of pleasure in observing the plants, seeing how they are growing and flowering. In fact, he says that the habit of observing the way things grow has been the greatest benefit of his gardening experience.
"It's made me more aware of everything I see that is growing – when I'm in the Arboretum, looking at the flowering trees, or just walking by people's gardens here in JP," he said.
Jamie didn't know anything about the Mayor's contest until he stumbled across a mention of it while on the City of Boston website. The competition, now in its fifteenth year, is presented by the Boston and sponsors Comcast and the Boston Herald. The winners receive a variety of prizes related to gardening, ranging from two weeks' delivery of seasonal vegetables from a local CSA to tickets to the Spring Flower Show to various gardening supplies.
The winner in each category wins the Mayor's Golden Trowel. The category Jamie entered – Porch, Balcony, Deck, or Windowboxes -- is the most popular, with 20 contenders from across the city.
There are fifteen contenders in the Community Garden category, among them JP resident John Walsh, who is one of the five finalists. Counter to the usual image of a community garden plot being full of vegetables, John's plot is a formal garden with specially chosen art objects among the carefully planned plantings. The plot was a blank slate when John took it over 13 years ago and began to create a formal garden in the French tradition. The aesthetic of that tradition rests on geometric designs created through strict restraint and direction of the vegetation. It takes careful planning and constant maintenance, including the practice of topiary – the clipping of foliage and twigs of trees and shrubs to develop clearly defined shapes.
John, a librarian, has always loved formal gardens, whether pictured in books or experienced through travel, and the rectangular shape of his plot in the Saranac Garden gave him the chance to create one of his own. He began with the path and a circular area as a focal point, started to invest in boxwoods, and continued to add plants and artwork as budget and inspiration have allowed. At this point the garden is complete, though there is always work to be done to maintain the design. While he uses local nurseries for some plant material, he has sought out special growers for some of the roses that fit his vision of the garden. He feels that the creation of the space is very much an artistic act.
Gardens in the Mayor Menino's Garden Contest are being judged on general appeal, on the use of color, definition and neatness, the variety and quality of plant material, and on the garden hardware, furnishings and art incorporated into the garden. The winners in the various categories -- including window boxes, roof gardens and decks, front yard and back yard gardens, shade gardens, herb gardens, community gardens and more – will be announced at a ceremony late in August.
Jamie Day said that qualifying as a finalist and appearing in the Patch make him feel like a winner already!

LADUE, Mo. (KMOX) – Ladue Police are hoping to get a key piece of information later today in who sent that Instagram message that put all schools in the district on high alert Thursday.
Police served a warrant Friday on Instragram, the popular social media website where the threat was posted, including a picture of the Sandy Hook shooter, Adam Lanza.
Its taken a little longer than investigators had hoped, because Instagram doesn't list a phone number. Authorities are hoping the company is one that retains postings, if so, they might be able to trace it back to an IP address unless the poster has successfully covered their tracks.

That, however, is the wrong first question argues Charles R. Kesler in his new book "I am the Change: Barack Obama and the Crisis of Liberalism." We cannot fully understand Romney's defeat, implies Kesler, until we first understand why conservatives have lost the majority of policy battles over the past 100...

Planescape: Torment is on for $6 on GOG. Should I just take the plunge and buy it, or do you guys think it'll get any cheaper?
No, I'm gonna play it at some point. I just wanted to know if this was one of those games that went down to $2.50 or something regularly like Just Cause 2, in which case I could probably wait.
Age of Empires 2: Hip Dysplasia. I'm not sure what I expected but it's rather difficult to not fall asleep during the incredibly tedious tutorial.
I'm not sure who they're aiming it at - massively stupid people I suspect.
In the same way Doctors have an annoying habit of talking to everyone as if they're mentally feeble - maybe it's a natural "I'm the guy who knows stuff - I'll talk down to everyone" itis...
If you have games they're creditted for the discount - once you have 2-3 it's really just "buy the rest" time - even the crap ones (Dragonshard).
Red Orchestra 2 for the free weekend so I can take advantage of servers actually having players.
* historical settings and characters with a story written to entwine fact with fiction in a way which can be pretty cool; see 'Baroque Cycle'.
And Planescape Torment is easily worth that price, and doesn't tend to get lower as an individual game.
More Dota 2 as of late. Great fun with one or two friends while on Skype/Raidcall, utter horrible shite otherwise. Seems like some things never change.
Just killed Benny 70 hours into New Vegas and I still haven't even explored a quarter of what the game has to offer. He walked around a corner right into the loving embrace of my hunting revolver, took three shots center mass, and went flying back against the wall like he'd just been shot out of a cannon. That guy is dead as shit.
I wonder if Cass calls you out on that if not 30 minutes ago you responded to her idea of an assassination against the two people who'd killed her employees, with 'nah, let's gather some evidence and get them arrested instead.'
Ah who cares, I'm serving her up for dinner anyway.
Finished the Darkness 2 yesterday. A cool but short game (which is good given my backlog).
No back to Dark souls, starting Anor Londo.
If you want more Darkness 2, be sure to check out the Vendetta mode, which is a parallel story to the main game with new locations and characters. I found the samurai guy to be particularly fun.
Okami on the PS2
Okamiden on the DS
Real gems!
My PS3 has been abandoned for a little while and my dad got me taking another peek in Azeroth on my PC...
Way too little time to play though.
I think I might have finally found something in Guild Wars 2 which suits me - I started a Norn Protector and hammered the whole first 5 levels in one sitting - I only quit because I was falling asleep and it was 4:30am
Ironically I think it clicked for 2 reasons
1 - the story/location for the Norn is less twee than the Charr, Sylvari and Asura - not much but enough to make me read the dialog instead of skipping it
2 - less walking - more teleports locally - and the quests seemed to stack-up perfectly with events always happened as I was questing meaning even less travel required
3 - PEOPLE PLAYING - yes - REAL people!
It might also be because it seems to do what AoC did which kept my attention there. When I swing a weapon, EVERYTHING in-front or around me takes damage! That's how it should be done.
It also seems to have a bit of the 'your ability to take damage gives health to others' stuff I also like - my favourite solo levelling in WoW was a Paladin geared to just suck life out of everything around me. Aggro a whole area and AOE/leech it all to death - superfun!
Still not conviced I'm in a game set in a world - it feels like a collection of areas and not a 'place' - but then so did AoC...

..which is the opposite of the zone system's first premise "expose for the shadows".
For a film negative, that makes sense.
For digital, you do have to do the opposite, expose for the highlights.
In some respects, HDR is the new zone system
Exactly. Exposing for digital is more like exposing for slide film.
I was always under the impression that that's what the zone system with film was all about. Capturing as much information as possible on the film, then you can make the decisions about what you want to do with that information when it comes time to make the print?
no it's about where to place your zones...and develop THEN accordingly...
IF it would only be about as much as possible information, then you need to develop only with the lowest contrast possible, so one type of development,...no matter what, that's total opposite of zone-system..
No, because lowering the contrast doesn't necessarily increase the information, just the potential dynamic range. It may decrease tonal range between the black & white point and lose information.
Exposing & developing to have your blacks black and whites white, and having the dynamic range of the shot fill the negative with as many tones in between is as much information as possible. Which is what everything I've read about the zone system is.
getting closer
so it's all about placing the different parts in an image before the shoot in the zone-sytem, and develop accordingly...not about :
but about deciding before the shoot already which information you will keep, and which you will disregard (aka previsualisation)...and ideally that it then (because of the adjusted development to the subject) could be printed on a Normal paper
first of all, which shadow? zone 1 (dark/shadow with structure) or the shadows in the scene? it could be that you decide that the zone 1 should be placed somewhere else in the scene (what we normally would not call shadow)....or that we would be placing zone 1 on a half shadow, instead of a core-shadow...and therefor changing the tonality..and the samething where to place the zone 8 in the scene....and because the dynamic range between zone 1 and zone 8 would not correlate with the amount of eV/Lumen, adapt the development accordingly...
regardless of which shadow you expose for, you have to use only 1 shadow and 1 highlight in the frame per exposure. then when you develope your film you either push or pull it depending on stops there were between your shadow and your hilite.
i thought you would "normally" take your darkest shadow in the frame so that it does not come out black but still dark enough, and same with the highlite, you dont want your pic to have any blown out spots, unless your creating art
Yep - the only think I don't do anymore with digital is dropping exposure an extra 1/3 stop sometimes to saturate a bit more.
No, the thing is...a shadow is a relative meaning...what is a shadow in your scene is not necessarily a shadow in you photograph...
imagine a tree lying on the beach, then the blue ocean behind it, and then a gorgeous sunset..
where would you place your midgray and then accordingly your shadow?
you can decide to put your midgray on the light structure of the tree....as a consequence the sunset will be moved pass zone 10...and the see might become zone 9 and the zone 1 would end in the dark part of the structure of the tree, putting the attention of your image on the beautifull structure of the weathered tree
if you want to have a very intense sunset, you place the sunset in your midgray (colours would become more intense), the tree will be totally black, loosing most structure and the sea might go into zone 1
you can also decide to place the sea in zone 5 (for a very rich sea structure), then the tree's dark structure will go into zone 1 and the sunset would go into zone 9...this would be the default or conservative exposure if you would have a overall metering
That's what I was thinking about. I may want, for example, to photograph a model and have her skin tone run through a wider range of tones than what might appear normal skin tone. Exposure considerations may only be the first step. Adjustments in software can play a role.
I think it may be only a certain type of image where this sort of thing is a goal.
The tone-control workflow?
what would be the workflow then?...the development would be like a normal development...only way would be to use very specialised raw-converters...
just digital zone system ...there is actually a image-editing program, non-destructive even that work according to the zone system.. "Lightzone" for Mac and Linux....project will be revamped as it's now in zombie-state
Sort of...
The zone system's main premise is "pre-visualization", which means that if you wanted to purposely block up your shadows, you could do it. Or vise-versa with your highlights. But... in practice, Ansel generally tried to get the longest range possible, knowing that graded b/w fiber paper could only print 5 zones anyway... (the paper grades had different built-in contrast grades 1-5) so the purpose of the exposure was to compress 10-12 zones available on a negative, into roughly 5 to 7 printable paper zones, with some burning and dodging to make up the difference.
My guess is that most of Ansel's negatives were relatively flat looking. (like a RAW file shot at 0,0,0 ) a bit like the CinemaStyle camera preset for video.
In any case, what Daxxx is alluding to is pre-visualization.
Digital Bracketing
I hear sensors now are capable of doing a set of pre determined exposure compensations [in 1/3, 1/2 or full stop increments] in one click of the shutter, kind of along the lines of HDR but not as destructive. At that point I would expose slightly to the highlight side since digital sensors are more prone to fail at the highlights IMO.
True Zone system works when you have the dynamic tone range that only film will give you which has a 2 or 3 stop more latitude on both ends of the scale compared to the more narow range of digital sensors, therefore bracketing would be your best bet to match the film Zone System capabilities.
Well done.
You beat me to it.
Somebody knows the Zone System.
That too.
ETTR isn't in conflict with the zone system or pre-visualisation - in fact it requires the photographer to be more able to pre-visualse, as what you see on the LCD isn't typically what you will end up with after developing the RAW file.
Thanks for the links!...good read
Thks you. Really useful for me. I try understand and use Zone Systerm chart when retouch
Ansel Adams just wrote a book about it called "The Silicon Chip"
Remember the zone system is comprised of several other markers... one, developer time, film and paper. None of the digital uses anything like Bromide paper??? More importantly, camera metering is designed to give correct readings under average circumstances. This means that the camera would look at a scene and try to render it as average reflectance (18% reflectance), which is middle grey (a value right in the middle between pure black and pure white). When a scene contains too much bright, however, the camera tries to render it as average so it darkens it causing under-exposure. On the other hand, when a scene contains too much dark, the camera tries to render it as average so it lightens it causing over-exposure.

No kidding!!! just training… this promise too much, we'll be in a high altitude and the place is beautiful, but so cold, I hope this provides me the strength I need for the next training level: becoming faster. In April 3 I'll run 5km, but there is a chance for me to win.
Ok I've read tons of questions about it, I went to a dermatologist and he told me, they'll never go away, but if your strecht marks still red or purple, they can be treat with laser and they'll fade almost at 100% So if you have the chance to try it, do it as long as your stretch marks still red, cause once they turn white, there's nothing to do about it.
Whats wrong with looking like you?

February 4–April 29, 2007
Despite increasingly poor health in his later years, Claude continued to draw and paint until his death in 1682. His late works exhibit a new grandeur of conception and a growing interest in literary themes. Encouraged by his patrons, Claude took on more complicated subjects, often drawn from heroic epics like Virgil's
. In both drawings and paintings, the landscape settings enhanced the dramatic power of the narratives. His highly finished late drawings have the monumentality and visual clarity of his painted compositions while retaining the naturalism that had always been a characteristic of Claude's work.

The Buttered Tin
- diesel Jun 21, 2013 03:55 PM
Went to the brand spankin new Buttered Tin in St. Paul today for lunch. I had the chicken club sandwich and was very impressed. High-quality ingredients (including thick-ish cut, homemade-tasting roasted chicken and perfectly ripe avocados) put together very thoughtfully. I chose seasonal greens salad as a side - nice, fresh greens lightly dressed.
Coworkers had caprese sandwich, Easter dinner sandwich, and tuna melt, and all really enjoyed their meals too.
Service was rather slow. Although all four of us ordered at the same time (but on different tickets), one companion didn't get her meal until the rest of us were nearly finished. However, mgmt gave her three free, gorgeous-looking cupcakes to take home as an apology gift. We all hoped the slowness was related to opening week kinks and agreed we'd definitely be back again.
So happy to have this as an option in DT St Paul!
I really enjoyed my biscuits and gravy last Monday. The biscuits were light and the gravy didn't put me in a coma. Also snagged a "Ho-Ho" cupcake for later which was great. I'll be going back this week.
Went for breakfast today....OUTSTANDING! Places like this could really help turn Lowertown into a destination in of itself. The Hash Brown Omelet is so creative, and full of fresh asparagus. I bought four cupcakes to go for later....but we had a chocolate chip cookie and a brownie already on our way out! But it's OK because breakfast came with a salad...it all balances out...
We loved it as well. We had their caprese and reuben sandwiches and they were awesome. rich buttery chocolate chip cookies. Very glad they are in the area and we wil be back!
Can't comment on their table service - my slice of coconut cake was a "to-go" purchase. But it was really, really good. Am excited about the possibility of good baked items downtown!
With all these great reviews I think we're going to hit the place up for a breakfast this weekend. Question though - what's the parking situation over there these days? I'm a St. Paulite, but I usually don't get any further into downtown than Meritage and the Ordway. Are the meters over there still coin or have they all switched to credit card machines? And anyone know if parking at the meters in St. Paul is free on Sunday? I know it isn't in Mpls.
re: Seige
Pretty sure free Sunday. I think there is a mix of card / coins. Depending on what time you go Saturday, much of lowertown has free meters for the Farmers Market. Farmers Market probably won't have a major impact on parking where TBT is. Terrible drivers are all over the place though.
I had a great experience at The Buttered Tin, and am really excited for it to be located in Lowertown.
It's great to have another quality option for breakfast and lunch (and really amazing bakery items) so close to home.
We had a great first visit with good service and can't wait to go back!
Went back with my kid today. I had the Cobb salad special (served with a cup of navy bean soup). The salad was nice and fresh, lightly dressed, with spinach, eggs, avocado, lardons, tomatoes, and no cheese. The soup stole the show, though. Lovely, lovely navy bean soup with asparagus and some other veggies and some kind of meat - turkey maybe? - , with a dollop of pesto on top. Um yum!
The kid had the bananas foster french toast. She ate ten bites, which means it must be outstanding because that's about five more than usual. I couldn't try it due to my stupid banana allergy. She gave it a double thumbs up.
They had table service today and service was speedy and friendly. Yay! Loving this new option in the STP.
Was on a time crunch and should have gotten there before 9:30 as it was busy and we weren't able to stay and get breakfast. :( Got 4 cupcakes to go though... the ho ho, chocolate/raspberry, vanilla/raspberry and lemon. The ho ho and lemon were very good - the lemon filling was divine and the chocolate cake very moist. Choc rasp. was good and the vanilla rasp. was a bit dry. Overall though, I was pretty impressed. Will try and get there a bit earlier next time or at least on a day we actually have the time to wait the 20 minutes for a seat.
re: Seige
Made it there this morning for breakfast. You order at the counter, then have a seat and they bring the food to you. Very nice, clean, bright space which is a great addition to Lowertown.
We started by sharing a slice of blueberry cream cheese bread. Um. YUM! It had a great simple syrup glaze on top. Incredibly moist with juicy, sweet blueberries.
I had the hashbrown "omelette" with a poached egg on top. Hubster had the biscuits and gravy. Both are served with lightly dressed mixed greens and mixed fruit. My "omelette" was quite good. Melty gruyere with nicely grilled asparagus in crispy hashbrowns. The only downfall is that my poached egg was poached hard - major pet peeve for me. I like my poached eggs runny. To me, that's kind of the point. That said, it was tasty all things considered. Hubster's biscuits and gravy also came with 2 poached eggs and they got those right and appropriately runny so I'm taking my bum egg as bad luck and not a perpetual problem. Hubby loves biscuits and gravy and having grown up in the south, considers himself to be a bit of a connoisseur of this dish. While he wouldn't say this is the best version he's ever had, he did put it in the top 25%. High praise considering the B&G quantity he's consumed over the years. :)
We opted to pick up some baked goods to bring home as well. A chocolate chip cookie, a cookie whoopie pie and a non-Twinkie (it's really like a Twinkie, but they haven't come up with a name for it yet that is not Twinkie). The cookies were good although I would have liked just a tad more salt in them. The not Twinkie - the definite star! The cake was delicious and moist and the filling was yummy. Would totally get these again!
re: Seige
I had the huevos rancheros benedict last week and one of my eggs was over-done also. The second one one the plate was passable. My boyfriend had the same dish and both his eggs were cooked perfectly.
The cupcakes are moist and flavorful. The frosting is a giant dollop on top, which can make it hard to eat -- would be better spread out over the entire cupcake.
Visited Saturday morning after the Farmers Market. We were greeted by a hostess at the door and immediately given a table. Ordered the Hashomelet, girlfriend order the French Toast. Both were excellent. Took some cupcakes home, also excellent. Super moist. Great spot for St. Paul.
I finally got to try this place out. We went at 8am on Sunday and was the perfect time. The number of people waiting outside grew quickly afterward.
I won't bore with a long dissection of each dish except to say that my party had the Buttered Tin Hash, the Huevos Rancheros Benedict, the Banana Foster French Toast, and the Pig's Eye Breakfast. All were excellent in their own ways.
These folks do a great job and will be getting my business again

The Rat Pack packed it in after this sprightly musical comedy that owes more than it should to [[Performer~P109289~Damon Runyon~damonrunyon]]'s stories and [[Performer~P100024~Frank Loesser~frankloesser]] and [[Performer~P183143~Abe Burrows~abeburrows]]'s classic musical Guys and Dolls. [[Performer~P83819~Sammy Cahn~sammycahn]] and [[Performer~P115078~Jimmy Van Heusen~jimmyvanheusen]]'s bright and snappy score features such songs as "Style", "Bang-Bang" and the [[Performer~P111632~Sinatra~franksinatra]] standard "My Kind of Town". Set in 1920s Chicago, the tale begins during a birthday party for head mobster Big Jim ([[Performer~P60775~Edward G. Robinson~edwardgrobinson]]) who is shot to death during the celebration. Rival gangster Guy Gisbourne ([[Performer~P22575~Peter Falk~peterfalk]]) immediately declares himself the chief gangster. The northside gang, headed by Robbo ([[Performer~P111632~Frank Sinatra~franksinatra]]) is willing to grant Guy his self-declared title as long as he leaves the northside territory alone. Guy refuses and when small time hood Little John ([[Performer~P121802~Dean Martin~deanmartin]]) joins Robbo's crew, turf warfare breaks out between the two gangs, resulting in the destruction of both Robbo and Guy's nightclubs. Meanwhile, Big Jim's daughter Marian ([[Performer~P9847~Barbara Rush~barbararush]]) offers Robbo $50,000 to find the man who killed her father. Robbo demurs and gives the money to his henchman Will ([[Performer~P17423~Sammy Davis Jr.~sammydavisjr]]) to get rid of. Will, hoping to do a good deed, hands the money over to Allen A. Dale ([[Performer~P15874~Bing Crosby~bingcrosby]]), who runs an orphanage. Allen, finding out that the money came from Robbo, informs the newspapers of Robbo's philanthropic enterprise and Robbo immediately becomes a local celebrity, referred to as Chicago's Robin Hood. For his part, Robbo is willing to go along with the publicity. On the romantic front, although Robbo is attracted to Marian, he gives her the brush-off when he finds she is using a charitable foundation as a front for a counterfeiting ring being run by herself and Little John. Robbo tells Marian to leave town. Instead, she hooks up with Guy, proposing that he kill both Robbo and Little John. ~ Paul Brenner, Rovi

Right Where I Need To Be...
22 1 / 2012
Tomorrow starts Day 1 of the Reboot.
My food journey has taken me down many roads. As recently as two years ago the only vegetable I really ate was the potato. Make the potato in any way and I was there. I am still there for the potato, but gradually I began to look at the food industry and my place in it.
I enjoy seeing what goes on behind the curtain and backstage in the food industry is fascinating. I highly recommend watching Food Inc. to see a little of what it takes to get our food at dirt cheap prices. This documentary cultivated a desire to not to have choices made for me by the food industry or food itself. We joined a local CSA (Community Supported Agriculture) and began setting higher standards for our food. We do our best to only consume meat if we are satisfied with its journey (where did it come from?, how was it treated? How is the animal butchered? how are the farmers treated?)
Despite this we threw away a lot of vegetables from the CSA. Why? Well, I didn't really eat vegetables, so… Since moving to the Mini-Farm I have made great strides regarding my vegetable intake. I am now comfortable with an entire meal not containing meat. A meal without meat used to be called a snack.
This brings us to the present. As my awareness of how food affects our lives comes the documentary, Fat, Sick, and Nearly Dead. It chronicles a man with a chronic disease who is able to control, not cure, his disease through his diet. He had suffered with the symptoms of his disease for 8 years with little to no respite from his medications and with his doctors flummoxed. He did this by undertaking a 60 Day Juice fast. All he ate for 60 days was juiced fruits and vegetables. He lost weight and was able to discontinue his medication shortly after the end of his journey. But what I find more interesting was how his outlook on food and his life was changed.
Angie and I are doing the Reboot. We are not going for 60 days, though, who knows. We are going for at least 5 days. The photo is of Dinner tonight. It is called Green Juice and contains apples, spinach, kale, celery, cucumbers, and ginger root.

Financial planning tips for furloughed feds
Thursday - 10/10/2013, 7:09pm EDT
The discussion parallels NITP's webinar on the subject. (Webinar will be available to view online through October 31, 2013. View whenever you'd like and as many times as you'd like.)
The webinar offers the following tips:
- don't panic;
- focus on cash flow;
- explore lines of credit;
- don't take distributions - loans are better;
- cut back on contributions/ transfer IRA funds to TSP if appropriate;
- consider liquidating some assets;
- rethink short-term allocations;
- know the G Fund survives debt ceiling drama;
- stay focused.
"If you are going to have trouble paying your bills, do not wait and assume that your creditors understood what it meant to have the government furloughed and paychecks being delayed by a month or two," warns Schaeffer. "You've got to get on the phone with them and really, really be proactive with that."

Having been one of the biggest tracks of the winter season, it is no surprise that a Size endorsed remix would come to light. This Sick Individuals remix was released a few weeks back in honor of the brand new Size Records Website, and it definitely does not disappoint! With a complete revamp of the intro and bass kick, Sick Individuals leads you on an unexpected journey from start to finish. You can see through the synthy overtones to grasp the original melody, but for the most part this remix is on a much bouncier level than the chainsaw riddled original. Check it!

Fortune Promo Fam Night, Boooooooyah!
Do you ever have that feeling that your constantly trying to grab something that's out of reach and out of sight. You see a shiny glimpse of it past the clouds and stretch your body as far as it can go. You try climbing on things but the pressure from the gravity wears you out. Your arms are heavy, your chest is heavy, your legs are heavy. I can't shake that feeling.

Narrow your search
See the new models and concept cars shown off at the 2012 Paris Motor Show.
The following cars represent the most technically advanced available.
The 2014 Ford Fusion Energi drives very comfortably and easily, and proves extremely economical for people who can plug it in and drive a reasonable daily commute.
Ford's F-150 has been the best-selling truck in the US for the past 37 years in a row. This year it gets a radical overhaul, moving to aluminum to save weight and getting a raft of new tech inside and out, making sure this workhorse continues to carry the Blue Oval forward.
Pricing not available
For the 50th anniversary of the iconic Mustang, Ford isn't exactly reinventing the wheel, but the company's latest pony car looks to be the best yet.
Pricing not available
With its 1.6-liter engine, the 2014 Ford Fiesta makes for a mild-mannered urban runabout, but Sync and MyFord Touch add some compelling tech features.
The 2013 Ford Fusion Hybrid looks good and can be had with very advanced driver assistance features, but buyers should be aware of Ford's revised fuel economy average of 42 mpg.
If you have a commute under 50 miles and a place to plug the car in, the 2013 Ford C-Max Energi makes an economical and excellent commuter and family vehicle.
Its short driving range and long recharge times limit the suitability of the 2012 Ford Focus Electric to some specific lifestyles, but it is a very high-tech car that should delight early adopter types.
Offering all the fuel economy and practical interior space of a Toyota Prius v, the 2013 Ford C-Max Hybrid adds significant power and a more engaged driving experience.
After a little more than three years on the market, the plug-in hybrid Volt is approaching 60,000 units sold. Is that enough momentum to compete with the mind share of the Prius and Tesla? We ask General Motors.
Few automotive CEOs have pushed a company further and faster than Ford's Mulally. As he steps down, we look back at his impact on the Blue Oval.

Watched Frank Gore on replay last night and Turner vs. Saints in the toilet dome 2009. The formula is clear and so far the Saints haven't shown they can stop it.
Against both these guys the Saints seem more inclined to try and strip the ball vs. tackle the ball carrier
September 23rd, 2010
5:06 pm
The Falcons are going to take it to the Saints this year…..Not Once….But Twice and come out as WINNERS!!!!! The 49ers proved on Monday night that the Saints are beatable this year. Hopefully Mularkey won't go back to his conservative play calling in New Orleans on Sunday.
September 23rd, 2010
5:16 pm
If they can't get good pressure up the middle on passing downs, then use Anderson to impede Brees' view of the middle of the field. And please, make sure that every ball carrier is ready for defenders who are focused on ripping the ball out. I like out chances this Sunday.
September 23rd, 2010
5:17 pm
I like our chances…

GOOD LUCK FALCONS, WE HAVE WAITED ALL YEAR SO THAT WE CAN COME BACK TO THE HOME OF THE SAINTS AND THE REFS., if you have looked at either of their games the mojo is missing and they are lucky to be 2-0, don't think they will make it this week, should be 2-1.
September 23rd, 2010

D'led #12 MJ is still listed as LP. You make it to practice? How limited?

September 23rd, 2010
5:52 pm
Second that, FrontRow – What's the story on Jenks, DLed?
Falcons cannot count on a subpar Saints performance – we need to dominate start to finish. Fight hard and leave it all on the field Sunday. Go Falcons!
September 23rd, 2010
6:03 pm
Don't need to count on the Saints performance. Just make sure the Falcons don't have a subpar performance and we'll be fine.
September 23rd, 2010
7:25 pm
The falcants will lose on Sunday. They are an inconsistent, poorly performing team. Their offense had a good game last Sunday, horrible game the week before. They'll be a bad offense again this week. They're on the road, facing a hostile audience. They'll fold early.

If the Falcons have no turn overs, I really like our chances. Matty Ice has to lead this team to victory. No huddle offense. GO BIRDS!
September 23rd, 2010
8:46 pm
I think the keys for the Falcons are:
-an effective running game with a diverse mix of passing plays (get creative Mularkey)
- a swarming defense that hits hard
- protect the football
September 23rd, 2010
9:03 pm
We are the who, and here is the that. FALCONS, BEAT THE SAINTS,FALCON BEAT THE SAINTS,

There is no way the aints put up 45 points on the Falcons. As Sean Payton said we have a fast defense that can cause alot of trouble.

beentherewonthat………..this is a what have you done for me lately league. When ya'll lose sunday you aints fans wont care about last year for being to worried about this year.

Aints – LAST year was their time; back to reality and their coach turns back into a pumpkin! LOL!
September 23rd, 2010
11:20 pm
As long as the Falcons allow the running game to be the constant in this game we will be able to compete with them no matter who is running the ball. (Although selfishly I want Turner to get as many carries as possible to silence the haters) Lets go Falcons!
RIP Frances Bishop

Protect the ball. Saints defense thrives on creating turnovers, but they give up plenty of yards. Keep the ball secure, it's that simple.

For the second week in a row, in a low-attendance NFL city, the Michael Vick effect strikes again.
September 24th, 2010
5:32 am
As for the Falcons' chances this weekend, the Saints have looked quite beatable in their first two games. If the Falcons can keep the pressure on Brees, they should at least be in a close game in the 4th quarter, at which point it will probably come down to which quarterback can lead his team to a score at the end of the game.
September 24th, 2010
6:40 am
Seenthis B4….little girl, you were told not to interupt the adults. Stay in your room or play with your own friends.

Michael Vick= one man show and nothing to show for it. It's know being report that the team did not like how Reed threw Kolb under the bus. That man is a looser. I'm not saying he shouldn't have made the switch but aleast give Kolb another shot. I thought you couldn't lose your spot due to injury. I know Kolb wasn't lighting up the board but waiting in the wings for so long he deserved another shot.
September 24th, 2010
8:18 am
The key to the Falcons vs Saints game is going to be how much pressure can the Falcons front 7 keep on Saints QB Drew Brees….If the Falcons let Brees have enough time Brees and the Saints receivers will eat the Falcons lunch…The Falcons front 7 must disrupt the pocket and timing of the Saints offense. If that doesn't happen the Falcons will lose. Its just that simple. The Falcons defense must win this game. We cannot outscore them. We must score and limit the number of possessions of the Saints offense.
September 24th, 2010
10:36 am
No HGN……….if the AINTS don't stop the Falcons running attack the AINTS will lose this game. Why is always what we must do not to lose, why not what we CAN DO TO WIN?
September 24th, 2010
10:38 am
Oh….and HGN you just said we can not out score them????????? Wouldn't that mean reguardless of what we stop or do we still lose the game?
September 24th, 2010
11:03 am
truth…."I thought you couldn't lose your spot to injury"! Coaches in the pros and college have ditched that mantra years ago. HC's just make too much money to have real loyality to players any longer. And that is sad!

Turner the Burner is running with the ball
Watch out Falcon Fans the Saints will make him fall
The first hit will spin him all the way around
The second hit will surely plant him in the ground
As Turner is lying on his back
He will say WTF was that
September 24th, 2010
1:10 pm
The best defense against the saints is to control the clock and keep that high powered offense off the field. That means establish the running game with turner and snelling.
September 24th, 2010
1:24 pm
Well I did not know Turner hurt himself dancing behind the front line. I guess if he would have attacked it like Snelling, he would not have gotten hurt doing all that dancing.

Situated in the Atlantic Ocean, off of the coast of Northern America, is the wonderful Bahamian island of New Providence. As part of The Bahamas, New Providence is an ideal destination for those looking for sun, sand and sea. A New Providence holiday lets you relax in style or undertake a variety of challenging and energetic activities. A New Providence holiday rental villa offers stunning views of the countryside and ocean, as well as a place to lay your head after a busy day seeing the sights and enjoying the activities!
A New Providence holiday has a lot to offer the visitor with a range of things to see and do. Undoubtedly many people visit the island for its excellent beaches, full of pristine white sand. As a result, you will find that there are a whole host of activities to enjoy, including watersports such as sailing, fishing, parasailing, kite boarding, diving, snorkelling, swimming, surfing and water skiing. Other activities available on a New Providence holiday include golf, tennis, walking, cycling, horse riding, quad biking and bird watching. With such beautiful coastal views, vibrant towns and an abundance of wildlife, it is also the perfect place to find some great subjects for enthusiastic photographers or artists.
If you can tear yourself away from your luxurious New Providence holiday rental villa then you will find a multitude of great places to visit on the island. Top of your itinerary should be a visit to the capital city of the island, Nassau. Here visitors will find many attractions including the Pirates of Nassau, which is a wonderful interactive museum. Visitors to the Pirates Museum can learn all about the history and golden age of pirates, at which Nassau was the heart. Also worth visiting in the capital is Fort Montagu, an 18th century fort that was built to defend the island against Spanish invasion. Fort Montagu is one of several forts on the island and is the oldest and the smallest. The cannons have never been fired but the fort did see battle unlike some of the other forts on New Providence.
Those considering having a New Providence holiday rental villa can expect to enjoy a sub-tropical climate which means that there are very hot summers and mild winters. The summer months offer up daytime temperatures that can reach as high as 32°C. This cools down in the evening to around 23°C. The winter months see an average daytime temperature of 23°C, falling to around 15°C at night. Rain showers tend to be quick and powerful but dry up quickly in the heat. The island has an average rainfall amount of 2 inches per month.
Travel to New Providence, Bahamas Travellers on a New Providence holiday will arrive at the Lyndon Pindling International Airport (NAS) on the island. Air operators offering affordable, regular flights to the island include American Airlines, British Airways, Virgin Atlantic, Delta Airlines and Continental Airlines. Passengers can depart from various UK airports such as Aberdeen (ABZ), Edinburgh (EDI), Newcastle(NCL), Manchester (MAN) and Leeds (LBA).

Our church was founded in 1882 but our roots in Congregationalism reach all the way back 1620 and the Pilgrims' quest for religious freedom. We are a member congregation of the United Church of Christ and like our denomination we reflect the same diversity in thinking and theology.
We open our doors to many other community organizations for meeting space. Our members serve our community through involvement in the Rainbow Shoppe, B.A.S.E.S. Teen Center, Northern Community Mediation, Charlevoix Area Hospital Foundation and Guild and many others.
Our worship style while traditional is open and inviting. Dress for all our services is casual. Members and guests, young and old, are invited to lead worship as lay leaders, guest pastors and special musicians. Holy Communion is celebrated the first Sunday of every month as well as on other special occasions. We strive to keep worship inspiring, fresh and spirited.
Music is particularly strong at our church. We have a Chancel Choir, Pilgrim Bell Ensemble, the Altarnotes, and Jongleurs (recorders). Throughout the year but especially during the summer months guest musicians from Bay View, Great Lakes Chamber Orchestra and others add a dimension that enhances our worship.
Our church building also serves as the venue for a variety of community musical organizations for practice and performance including the Great Lakes Chamber Orchestra, Bay View Young Artists, and the Charlevoix Men's Chorus. In 2006 we added a new Rogers Trillium organ with which our very talented organists add to the depth and richness of our worship experience.
We offer two worship formats each Sunday. Our First Light Service at 9:00 a.m. is informal and reflective in style. Worshipers gather in a circle in comfortable chairs pray and reflect upon the day's scripture and message. The 10:30 a.m. is our traditional service in the sanctuary. From Memorial Day weekend through the second Sunday of September our early service moves to the Michigan Beach pavilion and we meet at 9:00 p.m. The Sanctuary Service remains at 10:30 a.m. through out the year.
Come, join us. We look forward to your presence with us as we celebrate the presence of God in our midst through word and music, prayer and praise!
