Chez Spencer reviews from OpenTable diners
- New Favorite RestaurantOpenTable Diner Since 2011Dined on 5/29/2013I've driven by this restaurant a dozen times and wanted to try it after seeing it reviewed on Check Please. I was not prepared for the beautiful interior with arched wooden beams framing the high ceiling or the casual elegance I encountered. The food choices were excellent and everything we ordered was superb. We enjoyed every bite and sip of wine in a comfortable but beautiful ambience.Special Features:
- DisappointedOpenTable Diner Since 2006Dined on 5/25/2013Was very disappointed in both the food and the service. I had been to the restaurant a couple of years ago and had really enjoyed the food. This time I was shocked at how mediocre/poor the food was. $30 steak was overlooked. Food was under seasoned. Soggy pastry on the escargots lollipops - they clearly been baked ahead of time and reheated. Only redeeming quality was that the waiter was kind enough to let us tast several wines to allow us to pick the wine that would pair best with the food. What happened to this place??
- Notes on Chez SpenceririshiceDined on 5/25/2013The menu was a little hit and miss. The sweetbreads were wonderful, the scallops very good (though not knock-me-to-my-knees good), the chocolate lamb was wonderful, the asparagus (what there was of it) was good, The parmesan risotto was ordinary and over priced (I make better at home), and the filet mignon was surprisingly tough (for filet), but had a wonderful sauce of morel mushrooms and with some kind of truffle infusion. All said, I don't think I'd go back, and if I did I'd be very selective in my choices. Our server was polite and efficient, a bit distant, no special good vibes. I loved the ambiance with jazz in the background and the feeling that you'd found a hip secret hideout.Special Features:
- Not as special as pastOldsohoDined on 5/18/2013Food not as carefully prepared as past. Squab over cooked. Steak brought out too rare. An ambitious menu nice wine list. Attentive serviceSpecial Features:
- Near ACT Theatre Mission ArmoryrobertDined on 5/17/2013Popped in for dinner before a play at the armory. Reservation was for 5:30 which allowed plenty of time for dinner before the play. Try the asparagus and the beet salads - ExcellentSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Inside? Outside?OpenTable Diner Since 2012Dined on 5/12/2013I want to start by saying that our meal at Chez Spencer was amazing. Unfortunately the seating or staffing situation that evening seemed less than ideal. We were seated in the front area away from the main dining room and rarely saw our waiter, or he us. It took ages before we had someone come to take our order. Though I liked the ambiance in the 'outside' seating area next time I'll request the main dinning room as the staff seemed very dotting of the patrons there. Regardless I would like to return as it is a treasure of a place and I'm sure they will sort this thing out.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Favorite spot in SFOpenTable Diner Since 2009VIPDined on 5/12/2013The ambiance at Chez Spencer is pitch perfect--understated elegance meets romantic French garden. Plus, the food is spectacular, standouts include the asparagus, filet mignon, scallops, and the cod. Haven't been disappointed yet!Special Features:
- So, soOpenTable Diner Since 2011Dined on 5/11/2013Food quality and taste were were acceptable and "typical" for a restaurant in this price range but not outstanding. The best dish were the seared scallops. The setting may be viewed as trendy by some guests and as sub par by others.
- Great DateOpenTable Diner Since 2009Dined on 5/10/2013We had a fantastic evening! Everything was delicious. Entrees are $30+, which was a little steep...but overall a great date spot!Special Features:
- Great new spotOpenTable Diner Since 2005Dined on 5/3/2013We had this restaurant on our must do list for some time now. We ate there on our 35th anniversary. The food is fabulous and such a romantic space. Next time we will try the patio outside. Prices are very reasonable for the quality of the food. Be sure to check this place out.Special Features:
- Wonderful evening.TobalaVIPDined on 5/1/2013Celebrated an anniversary there and it was special...not noisy and very good friendly service. My husband had a Sweetbread appetizer and they were the best we've had anywhere. Ihad a butter lettuce salad with superb dressing. For the main course I would highly recommend the duck in a lovely sauce (not too sweet) with small light crepes and venison which was extemely tender and flavorful. We shared profiteroles for dessert that were yummy with a dark chocolate sauce which I would have liked more of. Athough it is a bit pricey, I would highly recommend Chez Spencer for a special occasion or just a great dinner.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- I made the reservation inOpenTable Diner Since 2012Dined on 4/20/2013I made the reservation in advance and they called to confirm on the dinner day. We got there on time but spent 5 minutes find a parking spot. when we arrived, the hostess informed us that our table was not ready and the guests were having dessert. she offered patio seating but we declined and wait. the hostess was very nice and kept us informed. we waited 10 to 15 minutes and was offered next available table inside. the foods were great except when we ordered two desserts and they brought out 3 desserts and charged us 3 portions. we didn't order but paid for it. two were the same dessert. we would have order the 3rd dessert different than what they brought out. one thing - food odors can really got on clothesSpecial Features:
- Delightful treasureOpenTable Diner Since 2010Dined on 4/18/2013I don't have a single negative thing to say about Chez Spencer. The entire experience was a delight. Would recommend it as a 'must' to anyone living in or visiting San Francisco.Special Features:
- I really enjoy this restaurant.susbuzzVIPDined on 4/16/2013I really enjoy this restaurant. It has a very relaxed feeling with really good food and very friendly and efficient service. I recommend this restaurant to my friends.Special Features:
- Romantic dinnerOpenTable Diner Since 2011Dined on 4/12/2013Very intimate, great place for a romantic date. The food was delicious and the service was elegant with out being stuffy. I am looking forward to comeback again.Special Features:
- My date ordered the tastingOpenTable Diner Since 2005Dined on 4/7/2013My date ordered the tasting menu & had the truffled mushroom soup which was rich and very good, had the pan seared scallops which were the best she ever had, and the filet mignon which was cooked perfectly. I had the butter lettuce salad which was very good due to the dressing and the Parmesan risotto which also was good. Highly recommend it!Special Features:

- Excellent food and service.OTUserDined on 3/30/2013Excellent food and service. A very nice dining experience.Special Features:
- It's a wonderful dining experience.robtDined on 3/29/2013It's a wonderful dining experience. The one thing that did not feel quite right was the Bus person was not friendly at all and a bit rude. The waiter was Fantastic. The food was very good, but a bit pricy.Special Features:
- A Little DisappointingArbitratorVIPDined on 3/24/2013Across 14th Street from the Wag Hotel, you enter Chez Spencer literally through a hole in the wall - once in, you're in a high ceilinged, loft-like room with a semi-industrial feel. The food is French - the preparation last night seemed a little off - I had sweetbreads that were almost perfectly sauteed, but were then doused with a vinaigrette that was so sharp it puckered my mouth; the lamb was beautifully grilled, but it was tough - very tough; my wife's filet mignon was well seasoned, but the morel and maitake sause was unaccountably watery. Service was friendly, but after taking our order, our waiter simply disappeared. At $160 for two that's a pretty steep proposition.Special Features:
- One of our favorite restaurantsOpenTable Diner Since 2012Dined on 3/24/2013One of our favorite restaurants in the City. My wife and I celebrated our 7th Anniversary here on Sunday.Special Features:
- Never Going Back!KsmoVIPDined on 3/22/2013After researching this restaurant, my husband & I were excited to celebrate our Anniversary at Chez. Unfortunately, our server was unattentive, lacked professionalism and had no personality, at least with us. We had ordered a bottle of wine & we had to keep filling our glasses since our server rarely ever came over to our table & when he did he didn't pour our wine or even ask how everything was. We couldn't leave quick enough, we ended up going back into Union Square to a newly opened wine bar where they were friendly. Since we were so UNimpressed with our server we can't remember his name but on the receipt it's server #8. He needs to take lessons from Meghan at Kuleto's; she's friendly, professional & attentive.
- Very innovative menu withOpenTable Diner Since 2008Dined on 3/21/2013Very innovative menu with a fine array of choices. Wine a bit pricey. Excellent service, attentive but not pushySpecial Features:
- Excellent food! bit of waitOpenTable Diner Since 2013Dined on 3/16/2013Excellent food! bit of wait for table 9very crowded)Special Features:
- Reservation made no differenceOpenTable Diner Since 2008VIPDined on 3/16/2013Rude hostess - we were not seated for over 30 minutes after our reservation, and with no apology for this delay. Their bar service was frustratingly slow as well. Won't be going back.
- Great food, amazing ambianceWhittDined on 3/16/2013Service a little spotty--forgot to bring out water for us 15 minutes after we sat and desserts (it was my birthday) went out to the wrong table--the one next to ours--but the ambiance and quality of food (while expensive) made up for it. The server, I must say, was very informative and helpful in helping us determine what to order.Special Features:
- We were here for a birthdaykarinDined on 3/16/2013We were here for a birthday celebration which I specified on the Open Table website. Without a reminder they brought a card and candle with the dessert- a very nice touch. The service was good, though they want ed to whisk plates away too quickly. Another waiter nearby had a loud piercing voice that raised noise levels considerably. The food was quite good. The escargot lollipops were dry but perhaps they were meant to be. I ordered the lamb rare and it was definitely not rare. Most of the pieces verged on well done. It was so tasty, though, that I ate without complaint. This restaurant had seating for large parties as well as strategically placed intimate seating. A good special occasion spot for dinner.Special Features:
- I've had drinks at the barMlsfVIPDined on 3/15/2013I've had drinks at the bar at Chez Spencer a couple of times over the past year, but hadn't stayed for dinner. The ambiance is really fantastic - a beautiful building, with spare but very tasteful decor...a great place for a quiet friday night wind-down dinner. Food was quite good across the board. The venison and sturgeon were great, lamb good and duck ok. Appetizers were generally strong (beet salad, asparagus, escargot lollipops). Dessert (profiteroles) was great. The service was ok. Our waiter was not particularly friendly and seemed sort of annoyed when we asked for recommendations (I hate the "it depends on what you like" answer). I like to hear a little more excitement and passion about the restaurant's offerings.Special Features:
- Always a great experience.IOpenTable Diner Since 2007Dined on 3/3/2013Always a great experience.I appreciate the fact that it is consistent.Special Features:

- BravoOpenTable Diner Since 2013Dined on 2/26/2013We loved the menu and the waitress was very friendly. We ordered 1. Red & Gold Beet Salad: Love the generous size of the beets because many other places serve small dices or few slices. Touch of the blue cheese is excellent. Refreshing & satisfying overall. 2. Morrocan Eggplant: The is something very special about the dressing. Perhaps I liked the slight spiciness so I used my bread to soak up the dressing. 3. Escargot Lollipop Puff Pastry: The moistness, slightly flakiness of the pastry and the escargot blended very well together. In fact it was hard to tell apart which is the pastry and which is the escargot when I bite into it. 4. Pan Seared Tai Snapper Consome: We ended our savories with this light broth and fish dish. Perfect!Special Features:
- The food was outstanding.WeOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 2/24/2013The food was outstanding.We especially loved the Sturgeon as a main course, and the scallops appetizer. Our main waiter seemed a bit distracted and inattentive, but the host stepped in and helped us with wine and made sure we were being taken care of. We were pleasantly surprised by the quality of the dishes. It was quiet and romantic, we liked the ambiance. We will be back.Special Features:
- One unfortunate side effectOpenTable Diner Since 2013Dined on 2/23/2013One unfortunate side effect of the open kitchen being so close to the tables, was the frequent smell of cooking fish wafting over guests. Not appetizing, especially if eating meat. Other than that, everything is very solid. The outdoor space is great.Special Features:

I witnessed the fourth show of Bruce Springsteen's new Wrecking Ball tour last night.
"Witnessed" is a carefully chosen word because it conjures the fervor of his concerts. He performs, yes, but he also testifies, and his adoring, faithful congregation (ranging from teens to octogenerians) responds in kind. It's something to behold: a single hand movement from Springsteen yields an instant, intended response.
The dozen or so times I've seen him, I've marveled at the obvious: his energy level, powerful voice, under-appreciated guitar playing, engaging personality and songwriting. But this time – thinking back over the two hour and forty minute concert – I was struck by his relevance. Despite being 62 years old and having created 17 albums over forty years, he's more relevant than ever. How does he do it? Here are eight relevance lessons from the Boss:
He's a thought leader – read the cover story from the recent Rolling Stone magazine to discover a man who's well connected with the world around him and not afraid to express a point of view. Bruce has tackled controversial topics throughout his 40-year career, sometimes stirring negative reactions, but he never backs down. He did it again last night when he played "American Skin" (41 shots), a song inspired by the police shooting death of Amadou Diallo in 2000. Speculation suggests he may have been making a statement about the recent shooting of Trayvon Martin.
His values define him – Bruce told Jon Stewart in RS, "In my music – if it has a purpose beyond dancing and fun and vacuuming your floor to it – I always try to gauge the distance between American reality and the American dream." Bruce began this journey in 1972 when he signed his first record contract with Columbia; it continues today with Wrecking Ball, his latest album.
He's social – Bruce doesn't sit still, doesn't keep to himself. He's a social animal who enjoys camaraderie and conversation. In an age of social media where the word "community" is fast becoming cliché, Springsteen has sustained an avidly engaged community that keeps expanding. One measure (besides selling over 120 million albums) is his social media presence. He has 2,179,654 "likes" on Facebook and 157,843 Twitter followers. Bruce is keeping the conversation alive, staying current in a digital age. He's no Lady Gaga (with 49 million Facebook likes) but he's definitely in the game.
He's sensory – Bruce may be a biological 62, but watching him perform, I marvel at his twenty-something dexterity, strength and flexibility. Whether it's sliding across the stage on his knees or bending backwards to the floor while holding a floor stand microphone, this guy logs hours in the gym to remain physically relevant. He's a best case example of how staying fit keeps us young.
He's an innovator – a handful of artists were creative enough to continually transform their music, taking risks, pushing in new directions. The Beatles morphed in amazing ways over a too-short nine-year span; "I want to hold your hand" sounded nothing like "Day Tripper" which sounded nothing like "A day in the life." Bruce is in this pantheon. The rambling lyrical style of "Greetings from Asbury Park" morphed into the tighter pop structure of "Born to Run," which was re-shaped to "Nebraska" starkness and later to the Americana-influenced "We shall overcome: The Seeger sessions." One of the new songs from Wrecking Ball – "Rocky Ground" – features a hip hop interlude, something Springsteen has never done.
It's about us, not him – We brought two friends to the concert who had never seen him. I explained how Bruce feeds off the audience and exists to give each person a gift. "It's never about him, it's about you," I said, explaining how Springsteen is passionate about making sure everyone has a good time, gets their money's worth and leaves happy. When the show was over I said, "Now you've been baptized." They grinned and understood.
He's more than music – I'm not hung up on awards; sometimes the gods get it right, often they don't. But Springsteen was robbed in 2003 when "The Rising" failed to win the Grammy for Best Album (he lost to Norah Jones). Inspired by the September 11 attacks, Springsteen had created an inspirational LP that helped us heal. It was musical catharsis; it was more than an album. His giving spirit has impacted a wide range of organizations, from Amnesty International to the Rainforest Foundation Fund to WhyHunger. He endorses a local charity at every concert: last night it was the Boston Food Project. He's raised – and given away – millions.
He's the best kind of brand – Great brands create a feeling, a meaningful personal connection that sticks. We want to associate with that brand because it's part of who we are, how we view ourselves. That's why he's more relevant than ever

of job opportunities which are expected to rise with the commencement of the LNG Pipeline project. The Gladstone
Maritime Museum and Gladstone Regional Art Gallery and Museum are excellent sources of historical and cultural
information for tourists seeking a true appreciation of the Gladstone region.
There is plenty on offer for travellers to Gladstone from affordable accommodation, scenic driving
routes and city entertainment, there's certainly something for everyone. Whether you choose to stay in the city,
harbour or have views of both getting around Gladstone and the outer regions is hassle-free with the range of

NY Good Questions: How Does Parson's Desk Hold Up?
26 Comments
Buy it from where?
West Elm
I bought the desk over Christmas - and it looks great (obviously not that old yet...). The one thing to remember is that cleaners can scratch the finish, so it's recommended to wipe with a damp towel.
I've had this desk since August and it has held up really well so far. I was a little anxious about it getting stained at first, but I've gotten ink on it and it has always come off with a bit of cleaning.
I'm very happy with mine.
I've had mine for almost two years. It's green, but haven't had any issues with it. It's a great piece! That's why it's one of our Top 5 Cheap Furniture Basics!
I have 2 words for you, magic eraser.
It's great on everything white (It does take off colored paint from walls). I don't have a parsons desk, but I do have some laminate/laquer things that are white and this takes off scuffs and dirt beautifully.
Check overstock.com -- they've had the exact same desk for half the price.
According to a friend of mine who has long been in the kitchen business. ALL whites yellow over time. Generally fastest in sunlight rooms. It is likely to be so gradual that you hardly notice it happening.
katstrode - i second this recommendation!
we bought the overstock version a few months ago and it's a dead ringer for the parson's. it's held up really well so far, no problems at all.
don't be fooled by the poor photo quality on overstock, the desk is white, not off-white:
overstock student desk
we have had ours (in white) for the last year and love it! It does get fingerprinty--but they wipe off easy enough!
I have this desk and love it. I have spilt coffee and other things on it and, even after it dries, it wipes right up with a damp cloth. A great buy.
I also have the Overstock version. When we had people in the house installing hardwood floors, something mysterious and brown became forever ingrained on the surface. Otherwise, it has held it's whiteness and I really love it. And for $150, you can replace it in a few years if it gets yucky! I use mine in the bedroom as a vanity (with a tabletop mirror) and a desk. It's a good size to spread out paperwork. Very practical and cheery! I highly reccomend.
how is the overstock version a dead ringer? i have one still in the box because it doesn't seem to be as glossy as the west elm version. is this my imagination? is the west elm version really not all that glossy? someone let me know.
i love this desk, i've had for 1.5 years and looks new.
Great to hear this desk has held up! I recently bought the dining table version and have been scared I was going to stain or scratch it.
I've had the desk since it first came out, so at least 18 months, and I really like it. I use it daily in my home office and find it very sturdy and it's still bright white just as the day I purchased it. It also goes really well with my white iMac, as crazy as it sounds I really wanted a shiny white desk to coordinate with my mac. Other mac geeks out there may be thinking, "Yeah, and..." because I bet you get me totally.
I don't think it scratches easily, but I'm not doing much on the actually surface outside of jotting down a few notes, tapping away on the keyboard, or clicking on the mouse. In other words, I'm not cutting fabric or chopping veggies. :)
My light blue desk is great. Easy to clean. Hasn't discolored or stained yet. I've only had it since the Fall.
I would put it together on soft carpet and away from walls and other furniture. I chipped one corner of the desk and one corner of a drawer on a wall.
True about the Overstock version not being glossy. I just assembled mine last night. It's a great desk for the price, but I'd have to say that it's ALMOST a dead ringer for the WE desk. I'm very pleased with it because it looks fantastic and is much more sturdy and solid than I imagined for 150, but I knew that it didn't have a high gloss finish when I ordered it.
i once had a super glossy white desk for my ibook. and i had a white lamp..im a mac geek.
i got the WE desk for my mom and she is not one to care much bout modern pieces. but so far its holding up pretty well
Three months ago I purchased two of the white parsons desks to create one long works space. I really like them. I wipe them down once a week with a Method Cleaner.
I bought the one from overstock too. The description on the overstock website is high gloss, BUT in reality, its a reproduction of the west elm desk and is painted (a matted paint) wood. The desk (dimensions, shape, look etc.) is identical to the west elm desk, but definitely not as classy or glossed/laquered as the one in west elm store.
Has anyone come up with a way to lacquer the Overstock desk, to make it high-gloss? Just a thought...=)
If anyone has come up with a way to make the overstock version high gloss (and actually look good too) I'd love to know how...
I just bought a used white West Elm Parsons Desk - there is a small chip on the corner of it (that's why it was cheap, I guess). Anyone know of a good way to cover it up or fix it?
This is a very low quality desk that is very heavy, it will chip RIGHT away and there is almost no way to fix it.
This is an expensive desk that reeads as quality but, day to day use reveals cheap materials and some kind of chalky substance was used to build it.
My other $300 furniture does not chip like this.
My desk looks awful and I regret buying it.
Heed my warning!
I went to the WE store yesterday with the intent on buying two of these desks. The store sample was chipped everywhere. Even places that wouldn't normally get hit. WE sales person told us that they do chip easily, with slamming since it is made out of veneer. Now debating wether to buy the overstock version.

Best Product: CleanWell
We always find something good at Target. Last month, we spotted CleanWell products in the hand soap aisle and gave it a try.
CleanWell is an all-natural hand sanitizer with Ingenium - a formulation of essential herb plant oils. There's no alcohol in CleanWell but it kills 99.99% of germs naturally.
It's now a staple in our diaper bag - a squirt or two after a round on the playground when no soap and water is in sight. We like that CleanWell doesn't make your skin feel dry and it has a great citrus herb scent.
CleanWell also makes a foaming anti-bacterial hand soap which we have yet to try. Available here and elsewhere.
2 Comments
I have been to 2 Targets so far trying to find CleanWell products and they haven't had any! Guess I'll have to order online.
kitjule- You can also find the Clean Well products at Whole Foods if you have one in your area.

BOSTON, June 17, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Cloud hosting provider Media3 announced on Tuesday that it has launched a new line of enterprise-class remote app and virtual desktop machines dubbed Virtual WorkPlaces.
Logo - http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20140617/118850
According to Media3, their new offering utilizes the latest Windows 2012 OS, and creates a reliable, secure, high-performance cloud hosting environment allowing SMBs to rapidly and cost effectively benefit from cloud adoption for their mainstream corporate apps and desktops.
"Cloud is not just for web applications anymore," said Bob Hayes, Media3 co-founder and CEO. "Our customers want and need immediate access to their corporate programs, data and apps from anywhere on any device and Virtual WorkPlace machines are a perfect solution."
Rather than storing programs, data and applications locally on a PC hard drive, Media3 WorkPlaces runs within the Media3 private cloud. As employees work locally, the files and programs they use are being processed and delivered from their cloud environment, which is accessed as a service for a fixed per instance, per month price.
These new accounts include options and features designed to give customers complete and immediate control over their cloud environment such as instant provisioning, user management with simple granular control, easy app distribution and more, all manageable from their proprietary control panel.
Media3's network of worldwide resellers and partners will benefit as well with the ability to resell and bundle these new remote-app and virtual desktop machines. In addition, a complete white label reseller program will be offered in coming months as well as an API for easy integration with customers' billing and management systems.

Reading to Rocky program continues at Pequot Lakes Library
On Saturday, March 9, from 10 a.m. to noon, the Pequot Lakes Library will again offer to the community's children a certified pet therapy dog named Rocky.
The kids will read to Rocky. For this reason the program is limited to kids of reading age.

Just so you guys know I'm taking every single one of your reviews to heart and learning from my mistakes you guys are awesome =D. **EDIT*
Hey guys this I was playing through one of my gameboy games, Donkey Kong for game boy and one of the last songs was this and I thought, wow that would be an awesome trance song. So here it is. Donkey Kong stage 9-8. This is by far my best song in my opinion, I put a crap load of work into it and as always I used only the presets in FL Studio. So yeah vote fairly guys and enjoy!
Oh I did use a midi but for only the main tune, everything else is original by me.

Awesome song and game btw. Nice super fast intro and the beat is good. It does sound like its clipping heavily, unless that was the sound you were going for. Either way nice job, keep up the good work
Thanks :D,
Rated 4 / 5 stars January 30, 2009
Would be 10 but...
I find the drums in the background jar (BADLY) with the pattern they do... if id didn't do that skipping thing at the end of the loop it would would be *THAT* much more listenable.
I have no idea what you are saying O.o,
Rated 5 / 5 stars January 28, 2009
ur song i freakin great man i wish u make more !! ^_^
I am =P
Rated 5 / 5 stars January 28, 2009
Very Cool
I'd have to say the build-up in the beginning of the song is the best part. It's amazing how you could loop this song over and over and it'll never get old.
Keep up the good work!

U.S. District Judge Allen issued a ruling striking down the state of Virginia's ban on marriage equality among gays and lesbians in that state. Like Oklahoma and Utah though (also states where federal judges overturned similar bans) the ruling is being stayed, or put on hold, pending appeal.
Just a couple of days ago, a different federal judge upheld the Kentucky ban on marriages performed in that state, but ruled that the state must recognize same sex marriages from other states.
This is all starting to resemble an eventual showdown with the U.S. Supreme Court. Will 2014 or 2015 see a new Loving v. Virginia case? That case in 1967, was the one that struck down all the existing bans on interracial marriages that existed in the U.S.
Congrats to the gays and lesbians in the state of Virginia, and those with the courage to fight these cases in the courts.
Also thanks to the Human Rights Campaign, the strongest and most potent of all the gay rights organizations in the U.S. Another good organization fighting for marriage equality is the National Organization for Lesbian Rights.

Actually, isn't it because there are now TWO tiers of raids that raiders can do?
Now you can cap VP by doing heroics or by raiding. Choice is never bad.
Sure, it's easier to do seven trollroics for the cap, but if you'd rather do what's easier than what you are supposed to find fun, then perhaps raiding is not for you.

SHEBOYGAN, Wis. (WHBL) - A Sheboygan man has been charged with child abuse after allegedly whipping two children with a belt on Wednesday. 27 year old Alonzo Binns, of Sheboygan, was charged with the two felonies Thursday in Sheboygan County Court after he and his girlfriend allegedly got into an argument Wednesday night after she told him she wanted to leave him. While they were fighting, her two children were listening in from behind a closed door. When Binns noticed the children listening, he allegedly started striking the two children, ages 9 and 11, with a belt. When the girlfriend heard her children screaming, she yelled at him to stop hitting her children, at which time he came after her with the belt, whipping her arms, back and side so hard that the buckle broke off, then punched her in the face. When officers arrived on the scene, they witnessed welts on the girlfriend and the children. If convicted, Binns is facing up to 13 years in prison.

Bread & Puppet: Deflection Campaign Office Art Exhibit @ Goddard Art Gallery
Bread & Puppet: Deflection Campaign Office Art Exhibit @ Goddard Art Gallery
Goddard Videos
Bread and Puppet's Deflection Campaign Office with R&R Pillows for Exhausted Electorate Art Exhibit was on display at the Goddard College Art Gallery at 54 Main Street in Montpelier, VT from 11/1/2012 until 12/6/2012 and was part of Goddard's 150th Anniversary Celebration.
In this video, Peter Schumann, founder and director of Bread and Puppet Theater, explains the exhibit. The exhibit featured a local landscape containing a deflection campaign office whose job it was to deflect the viewer's attention away from the glamorous election issues to the muddled reality of the electorate, a reality that doesn't seem to match the confessed values and principles of the campaigners.
The citizenry was advised to acquire the upside-down practices and habits of the ordinary undermen and underwomen of everywhere. To further explain the deflection campaign's mission, an incomplete encyclopedia of HOW-TO books was also no display.
Bread and Puppet Theater was the theatre-in-residence at Goddard College form 1970 and 1974 before they moved to Glover, VT.

2014 Audi RS7
( Evan Sears/ Cars.com photo / January 17, 2013 )The A7 is one of my favorite luxury cars as it is, and that's sans the 560-horsepower, twin-turbo V-8 that Audi has shoehorned into the RS 7. Visual tweaks like the "Quattro" script in the lower grille and beefed-up bumper are nice. The quilted leather treatment also speaks to me. It says, "You can't afford me, but wouldn't it be great to sit here?"

Mike Evans, the former chairman of the state transportation board, this evening withdrew from the Republican race to replace U.S. Rep. Nathan Deal in Congress.
Evans is married to the former Gena Abraham, who served as state DOT commissioner.
This from a rather sobering note that Mike Evans just sent out to north Georgia supporters:
My profession, real estate development, has been especially hard hit. Many good friends of mine have gone bankrupt and others, like me, have struggled to hang on financially.
When I first entered this race for Congress, I thought I would have the financial wherewithal to campaign full time and maintain my financial obligations in this very tough market. Over the last couple of months, that has been increasingly difficult. Instead of campaigning or raising campaign funds, my time has been consumed with outside work trying to provide for my family and pay for two children in college and another headed to college soon.
Reassessing our financial

Krasnaya Polyana, Russia
Ted Ligety crossed the finish line, performed the ski racing equivalent of a slide into second base and raised his poles in triumph.
Utah gold
Utah-born athletes with Winter Games medals:
Ted Ligety, Alpine skiing, 2006, 2014.
Steven Holcomb, bobsled, 2010.
Joss Christensen, freeskiing, 2014.
Brett Camerota, Nordic combined (team), 2010.
Steven Holcomb, bobsled, 2014.

|Post a Comment
Eight years later, he was an Olympic champion again, winning Wednesday's two-run giant slalom at the Rosa Khutor Alpine Center. Ligety's life may have changed considerably since 2006, but his newest gold medal is every bit as precious.
Maybe more so, considering where he stands in the sport, what's expected of him now and what two golds mean in skiing history. As a multiple-discipline world champion, Ligety came into these Games with exponentially more pressure than in '06.
"I was definitely more nervous than I've ever been for a ski race," said his father, Bill.
The skier's emotion, upon winning? "Relief," he said.
"Me, too," his father said. "Oh, boy, was it ever."
That's because this guy no longer is the overachiever who grew up racing at Park City Mountain Resort, who didn't distinguish himself as "one of the prodigies," as a youth coach once said, and somehow became a gold medalist. He's far beyond the stage when his parents were his primary sponsors, funding a career that nobody was sure would take off — and certainly didn't imagine reaching this level.
As he said that night in Italy after his victory in the combined event, "I wouldn't have ever expected to be where I am right now."
Just look where he is — and who he is — at 29. He's not nicknamed "Ligety-split" anymore; he's "Shred," the name of his own line of skiing products, with his signature helmet and goggles atop the press conference dais.
Since 2006, Ligety has launched his company, landed major endorsements and established himself as an international star with seven-figure earnings. Yet there was this little matter of the Olympics, the every-four-years moment when everybody's noticing. So as important as World Cup races may be, they're "not like the pinnacle of your life," his father said.
After so-so showings in his first two events in Russia, Ligety knew the GS was his race. Of course, that degree of confidence was accompanied by pressure and anxiety. So the performance, under those circumstances, gave him "really, really an awesome feeling," he said.
"Eight years ago," his father said, "we had no expectation whatsoever that he was going to do well at all. … Whereas coming here, it's just totally the opposite."
Thanks partly to Ligety's living up to his advertising, Utah's homegrown stars are having a good Olympics. Ligety's showing follows a gold for Joss Christensen in freeskiing, a silver for Noelle Pikus-Pace in skeleton and a bronze for Steven Holcomb in two-man bobsledding. Mix in gold medalists Sage Kotsenburg, Kaitlyn Farrington and David Wise, with varying ties to the state, and these Games are working out nicely for Utah.
The final weekend will become a sort of Park City Open, with Ligety seeking another medal in Saturday's slalom. Holcomb, who gave up his Olympic-level skiing ambitions a few years before Ligety came along, will try for another gold medal (and third overall) in Sunday's four-man bobsled event.
Ligety delivered Wednesday with a blistering first run, followed by what amounted to a victory lap in the afternoon — although this is ski racing, and nothing is truly routine. He finished the second run a full second slower than silver medalist Steve Missillier of France, but stayed nearly a half-second ahead overall.
He could have won by a record margin, but this achievement is sufficiently historic. The kid from Park City, who started in a day program that involved coloring as much as skiing, is the first U.S. men's Alpine skier with two Olympic gold medals.

Foreign Visitor Rescued After Suffering Cardiac Distress on Park Trail
Contact: Public Affairs Office, 307.739.3393
On Wednesday evening, September 4, a team of 20 National Park Service employees and Jackson Hole Fire/EMS staff responded to a medical emergency involving a hiker on the Hermitage Point trail in Grand Teton National Park. Responders located and assisted a 74-year-old woman from Amsterdam, Holland who was reported to be in cardiac distress. The foreign visitor was assessed and initially treated on scene for cardiac atrial fibrillation and subsequently transported via an Air Idaho life flight helicopter to Eastern Idaho Regional Medical Center in Idaho Falls, Idaho.
The Hollander and her husband were hiking the Hermitage Point trail near Colter Bay around 5:30 p.m. when she began to experience apparent heart problems. Her husband hiked approximately three miles to the Colter Bay Ranch House restaurant to seek help. Teton Interagency Dispatch Center received a call for assistance at 6:45 p.m. and immediately notified park rangers that a woman was experiencing cardiac difficulty on the Hermitage Point trail.
Two 'hasty teams' with park paramedics set out from separate trailheads to quickly reach the woman who was several miles out on the eastside of the Hermitage Point trail. Jackson Hole Fire/EMS personnel were conducting a training exercise at Station 4 in Moran, and six members of the team also responded to assist in the rescue operation.
Due to the nature of this medical emergency, an Air Idaho life flight helicopter was summoned and an emergency landing zone was established in a nearby meadow. The patient was placed into the ship and in flight to Idaho Falls by 9:45 p.m.
While the Hermitage Point rescue operation was ongoing, a second emergency call came in to Teton Interagency Dispatch Center for a person experiencing difficulty breathing at the Colter Bay cabin office. Some of the rescue responders diverted to the second medical incident, which turned out to be a person suffering from anaphylactic shock, and that patient was transported to St. John's Medical Center in Jackson via park ambulance.
This marks the 27th major search and rescue operation conducted in Grand Teton National Park this year.

WHITING | There's no secret to how Whiting is going to succeed.
It is a perimeter-oriented team that likes to get out and score in bunches in a quick amount of time.
The Times No. 3 Oilers did that and more on Thursday night thanks to a devastating first quarter run that propelled them to a 53-21 win against Lake Station in the Greater Southshore Conference tourney semifinals.
The Oilers (16-2) started off slowly hitting five of their first 13 field goal attempts, but they turned it up in the last 2:30 of the first quarter by scoring 13 points during that stretch to highlight a 17-2 run to end the period.
The Oilers hit five consecutive shots at one point in the pivotal run, including threes from senior guards Abby Bondi and Mariah Aguilera and freshman guard Veronica Aguilera.
"We shot the ball really well," said Bondi, who scored a game-high 15. "We excel on the perimeter and have very good guards. This team has a lot of threats, so the opposing team can't just focus on one player."
Lake Station (5-12) went scoreless in the second quarter until Joanna Dwyer, who scored 10 of the 12 Eagle points in the first half, hit on a layup with 2:37 to go, as it committed seven turnovers in that quarter alone.
"Our effort was excellent. We've really tried to focus on the defensive end and we didn't allow Lake Station to get in its offense," Whiting coach Kevin Moynihan said.
After a combined score of 12 points by both teams in the third, Whiting put the Eagles away by ending the game on a 10-2 run.
"We made some immature mistakes and it's hard to come back from that," Lake Station coach Kristy Hite said. "We prepared a lot for them, but their pressure is what beat us."
Whiting will now play the winner of Bishop Noll and Wheeler on Saturday at 5 p.m. at Calumet for the conference tourney title.
"We're excited to be there and will do our best to bring it home," said Moynihan. "Whoever we'll play, we'll will have to put the pressure on them."

BEIJING (AP) -- Growth of Chinese manufacturing barely expanded in November and stayed at the same rate as in the previous month, indicating a continual sluggish recovery, the China Federation of Logistics and Purchasing said Sunday.
It said the group's purchasing managers' index remained at 51.4, the same from October.
A private survey by HSBC had expected weaker growth in Chinese manufacturing with a PMI at 50.4, down from October's 50.9, amid signs of weaker global demands and slower inventory restocking.
Both indexes use a 100-point scale on which numbers below 50 indicate contraction.
"With November's PMI holding steady from the previous month, it shows the economic growth is stabilizing for the future," analyst Zhang Liqun said in the federation's report.

This look is classic with a fabulous twist. The nautical striped blouse and tassel necklace are pumped up when paired with her camo jacket and brooch. This is a look we will be copying soon!

What a boho beauty! We are so in love with Kate's daisy maxi paired with the denim tank and floppy hat—it's a match made in style heaven.
We can't wait to see what these gals wear tomorrow night!
Leather, leather, leather! This luxe trend is everywhere, but what is the most stylish and original way to wear it? Fashion bloggers and power Poshers - Tracy of The Right Shoes Blog and Jackie of Living After Midnite - answers all our questions about this popular trend for winter (and every other season).
If you can't get enough of these leather ladies' style tips, check out their host picks tonight at our Downtown Chic Posh Party!
With her fashion and beauty hauls, YouTube sensation Nastasza of LagunaBeachLove10 is definitely hauling some serious style perspective, representing the Southern California summer style that makes the Golden State so famous. From studded pumps to American flag crop tops, Nastasza's closet reminds us of online shopping on Nasty Gal and Topshop. Except her clothes probably have been made famous on her fashion and beauty YouTube channel, lagunabeachlove10.
We've known and loved Nastasza since the early PM days, so it was only a matter of time we spent some time asking her a few of our favorite questions about fashion, Poshmark, and spring trends.
Can't get enough of Nastasza's style? Shop her closet here and join her tonight for the California Style Posh Party:
