EU resolves bickering over satnav initiative
European nations apparently have resolved their objections over budgeting of Galileo, Europe's $4.2 billion rival to GPS. Several EU nations had voiced concern about Galileo's high cost, with some countries, most recently Spain, complaining they had been left out of commercial bidding negotiations. Under the final plan, Spain's share increases from 9.5 percent to 10.25 percent. The cost of Galileo is being shared by 15 European countries. The first Galileo satellites must be launched by 2005 or Europe may forfeit frequencies allotted by the International Telecommunications Union. That means a go-ahead decision must be reached this summer.

Ronaldo set to start
Sir Alex Ferguson will chuck Cristiano Ronaldo in with the Carling Cup kids tonight for his first start of the season. Ronaldo made his long a waited comeback from the bench in Manchester United's last two games - against Villarreal and Chelsea - after undergoing the summer ankle surgery which forced him to miss the start of the new campaign. United's star performer would not normally feature in the Carling Cup. The competition is last on Fergie's list of priorities, the one he uses to give fringe players and emerging youngsters a rare taste of first-team action. But Fergie, mindful that Ronaldo needs valuable time in competitive games to get back to full fitness, is ready to start with him in tonight's third-round tie against Middlesbrough at Old Trafford.
David McDonnell, Daily Mirror
The Guardian has uncovered a team-building document that Arsene Wenger gives to his players before matches. Team play is also the theme as the paper's Kevin McCarra writes that Sir Alex Ferguson still has to find the right balance to his United side.
The Daily Express picks up on MUTV's quotes from Wayne Rooney that appeared on ManUtd.com on Sunday. Wazza thinks the Reds can go on a run of form now.
Middlesbrough boss Gareth Southgate says there is now pressure on his side to do well against the might and strength-in-depth of United's squad. "There will be players Sir Alex will want to give a game to and he'll want to beat us so we have to be prepared," says Southgate.
John Obi Mikel tells the Daily Mail he made the right move joining Chelsea instead of United. (Yawn)

The Chicago White Sox optioned Taylor Thompson, a RHP reliever, back to the Triple-A Charlotte Knights following the 16-3 loss by the White Sox to the Minnesota Twins on Sunday.
In a press release by the White Sox it stated:
"Thompson, 27, has appeared in five games with the White Sox this season, going 0-0 with a 10.13 ERA (6 ER/5.1 IP) and four strikeouts. He made his major-league debut on July 20 vs. Houston."
It is safe to say Thompson didn't do as well as I thought he would when I looked at his numbers from Triple before he was brought up.
On Sunday against the Twins Thompson gave up three earned runs in one inning of work for the White Sox.
Thompson had a 2.61 ERA in 48.1 innings pitched with the Knights in 31 games this season.
The White Sox have yet to announce who they are moving up tot he MLB roster to replace Thompson, but are said to be announcing his replacement today before the White Sox face the Texas Rangers at US Cellular Field.

Old Jewish Cemetery Endingen & Lengnau Switzerland (par Swissrock)
About one half mile from Lengnau, in the direction of Endingen, is the old Jewish cemetery. It is recognized by a cluster of trees, on the right side of the road, and is surrounded by a stone wall. During the first years of settlement in Lengnau, the Jews were forbidden to bury their dead in Switzerland. They had to travel north to the Rhine River, and bury their dead on an island in the middle of the river, known as Juden Insle, Jews' Island." Endingen-Lengnau is close to the town of Baden in Switzerland.

The government also known as taxpayers gave Vz millions of dollars earmarked for rural broadband. Yet they let vz get away with spending zilch for that purpose and instead pocketing the money. Now vz has made it clear that they plan to abandon rural markets all together and remove all copper. Sure we can use 4g but what about those of us who aren't in a 4g market? I live in va and only the eastern most part of my state has 4g. The nearest tower is 85-90 miles away from me. Yes i know this is a rant but it says rant in the forum title.
I'm in central va. and they have had the antenna's in place for 4g on many towers, but its has been about 10 months since they were installed.Not sure whats taken so long, but at least it will be here in central va. some day.I cant picture the signal being that great unless your within 3-6 miles of any given tower (during the summer).The frequencies and power used tells it all.--Long you live and high you fly, and smiles you'll give and tears you'll cry,and all you touch and all you see, is all your life will ever be.

Arctic Sunrise case is not within UN court's jurisdiction - Russia
"The Russian side proceeds on the basis that the situation with the Arctic Sunrise does not fall under the jurisdiction of the International Tribunal for the Law of the Sea," the ministry said in a statement on its website.
The Russian Foreign Ministry issued the statement after the Hamburg-based International Tribunal for the Law of the Sea said it had accepted a Dutch request to order the provisional release of the Dutch-registered ship, Arctic Sunrise, and its crew.
Russia cannot release Arctic Sunrise due to court rulings - source
Russia cannot release the Arctic Sunrise vessel operated by Greenpeace, as demanded by the International Tribunal for the Law of the Sea, because the vessel's apprehension has been authorized by court rulings that have taken legal effect, said a Russian law enforcement source.
"We cannot release the Arctic Sunrise, because a court has made a decision on this matter, which was upheld by a higher court," the source said.
"As concerns the members of this vessel's crew, the restrictive measure imposed on them is being amended now and they are being released on bail," the source said.
International maritime court demands that Russia free Arctic Sunrise crew
An international maritime tribunal on Friday ordered Russia to release a Greenpeace ship and 30 people arrested in a protest against Russian Arctic oil drilling.
The Hamburg-based International Tribunal for the Law of the Sea said it had accepted a request from the Netherlands to order the provisional release of the Dutch-registered ship, Arctic Sunrise and its crew, which Russia detained on Sept. 18, sparking international protests.
Russia has previously said it will not accept the tribunal's decision.
Tribunal president, judge Judge Shunji Yanai of Japan, said the application from the Netherlands for the provisional release was accepted by the votes of 19 judges to two.
Arctic Sunrise case: 26 detainees leave St. Petersburg pre-trial detention center
A total of 26 Arctic Sunrise detainees have walked out of St. Petersburg pre-trial detention centers so far.
On Friday Gizem Akhan of Turkey, Ruslan Yakushev of Ukraine, Alexandre Paul of Canada, Hernan Miguel Perez Orsi of Argentina, Alexandra Harris, Iain Rogers and Frank Hewetson, all from the United Kingdom, Jonathan Beauchamp of New Zealand have been released from custody on Friday, Greenpeace said on Twitter.
Earlier on Friday Arctic Sunrise captain Peter Willcox of the United States, and activists Kieron Bryan of the UK, Mannes Ubels of the Netherlands, Paul Ruzycki of Canada, Faiza Oulahsen of the Netherlands, Anthony Perrett of the United Kingdom and Marco Weber of Switzerland walked out of St. Petersburg pre-trial detention centers.
Eleven people were released on Thursday from pre-trail detention centers.
St. Petersburg courts ordered the release on bail of 29 Arctic Sunrise activists so far. The only person whose custody was extended was crewmember Colin Russell.
Thirty environmentalists traveling aboard the Arctic Sunrise vessel of the Greenpeace international nature conservancy organization were detained in the Pechora Sea on September 19 for an attempt to stage a protest against drilling at the Prirazlomnaya oil platform. They were brought to Murmansk where a court sentenced them to two months in jail. All the Arctic Sunrise environmentalists were transferred to detention facilities in St. Petersburg on November 12.

A 76-year-old man who police say was sunbathing nude in his backyard next to a church parking lot in Farmington has pleaded not guilty to lewdness charges.
Myron Lee Kipp is charged in Farmington's 2nd District Court with seven misdemeanor charges: four counts of lewdness involving a child and three counts of lewdness.
|Join the Discussion
|Post a Comment
He pleaded not guilty to the charges on Wednesday during a court appearance. An Oct. 14 pretrial conference was also set Wednesday, along with a Nov. 10 jury trial, according to the Standard-Examiner.
According to a probable cause statement, a police officer was called to Kipp's home on March 5 after witnesses saw the man sunbathing nude in his backyard.
Three adults and four children at a nearby church parking lot were able to see through the man's chain link fence, police said, and saw the man naked. Kipp's fence does not have privacy slats, police noted in court documents.
When confronted, a completely nude Kipp told the officer that "he was sun bathing and that it was his property and he could do it if he wanted," according to the probable cause statement.

Regarding the story: "Obama: Intelligence Work Failed." (Jan. 6)
Is it any wonder that the Christmas-day panty-bomber, Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab, went unnoticed, despite warnings from his father of his intentions? The Homeland Security report (on Extremism, April 7, 2009) stated that the real enemies of the United States are rightwing extremists, as the report avers over 25 times. This diatribe mentions only one alleged right-wing perpetrator of terrorism, Timothy McVeigh. Nevertheless, it goes into excruciating detail to say that maybe there are right-wing terrorists lurking everywhere, just lying in wait to do the rest of us in.
There is zero mention of al-Qaida in the DHS report. Anyone who has been alive for the last 35 years knows that the only right-wing terrorist to wreak havoc in this county was, indeed, Timothy McVeigh. All other acts of terrorism perpetrated upon America and Americans have been committed by Islamic terrorists. But how would the DHS know that when they are on the lookout for those pesky American right-wingers?

Obscenities? You mean [whispers] swear words? [normal voice] I don't like those.

Henry was surprised at the sudden show of strength from the smaller man, though he tried forcing himself to keep from meeting Lile's eyes for as long as he could stand it. Once he did look, however, he almost regretted it.
"I was just so worried about you. All I wanted was to know that you were okay and there was nothing that I could do to figure it out. I was terrified that I would never see or hear from you again." Henry reached his arm out, placing it gently on the forearm of Lile's handless limb, needing the extra contact with the man, ensuring that he was there and not going anywhere for now either.
Silence fell between the two as Henry processed what Lile had said, though as soon as the words clicked in his mind, he couldn't contain his grin. "I love you too, Lile." He pulled the smaller man into a kiss, one that, to Henry, felt different than any of the previous kisses they shared. Whether it was because they had just declared their love for one another or because Henry was still grinning wildly, he didn't know, though he didn't particularly care, either. "I love you" he repeated after pulling away, quieter this time.
"I wish I could show you off to let everyone see how lucky I am," He stated as he moved his hands until they were resting on the smaller man's waist, pulling him a bit closer in before leaning down and kissing him again.
"You want to show me off?" Lile asked with a chuckle between giddily sloppy kisses with his man. He ran his hand over the firm swell of Henry's shoulder and grinned cheekily up at the man. "I'm the one who's got all this at my beck and call."
His conversation with Tanya all those weeks ago came to mind, and he brightened, leaning in to press a fond kiss to the stubbled point of Henry's chin. "If you're comfortable with it, dear Tanya has been absolutely dying for a double date with me and 'my man'. We could invite them over for one of your wonderful dinners, or a delightful Sunday brunch."
The executioner cupped Henry's cheek, brushing the pad of his thumb along the swell of his lip absently as he thought his words over. Lile had lived with his… predilections, all his life, so he had long grown used to living with the fear that any moment he could be betrayed by the slip of a tongue, damning him to the gallows in a split second. Yet he understood that this was all new for Henry, and that the towering blond may have some misgivings about actually letting anyone know exactly who he was dating. Lile didn't want to push the man into anything he wasn't ready for.
"It's quite alright if you wish to decline, love. It's a hard decision that I won't hold against you." He said with all sincerity, playing his fingers through sleek blond hair. Although there was something else hard the executioner was most definitely 'holding against' his lover.
Oh, but, I don't want to disrespect you…
My dear boy, as long as you aren't slinging obscenities at me, or those charming nicknames everyone is so proud of themselves for coming up with, there is little you could do to disrespect me.
(via markbelfort)
Being in love doesn't mean you have to be someones white knight. Just you wait, one day I will saying I told you so.
Oh, you'll be saying something alright.
I'm sure it would be the first marker of the coming apocalypse, or something equally dreadful.
I don't believe you. I'm sure if you found the right person you could love again. I never thought I would, I used to be the poster child of bitter and alone, but then I met him and everything changed.
Oh, well jolly good for you, but this is one case you won't win.
I'm no one's white knight, and there will be no happily ever after.
Surprisingly, I don't find that shocking. Aren't you worried about ending up bitter and alone though?
Even one as heartless as yourself must want to be loved.
Sweetheart, if you were to look up 'bitter and alone' in an encyclopaedia, it would just be an image of my face.
My heart died a long time ago.
What does that mean, Sir?
Call me by my name, lad.
I promise I won't take your head for the audacity.
(via markbelfort)
….No, not really. Do you enjoy being one of the most hated people in Everafter Lile?
Oh, I love it.
[laughs] I'm sorry, sir!
Oh, you can just call me Tuck, Mr. Hooksman.
Only if you return the favour, Tuck.
(via markbelfort)
Henry's head snapped to the side when the sound of metal on plate took his thoughts from how to approach the subject with Lile. As soon as he saw his sombre expression, laced with worry, he knew that Lile had caught his nervous habits and was, probably, coming up with all sorts 'what ifs'.
He knew that he'd have to speak up sooner or later; let Lile know what was on his mind so that his own thoughts didn't eat him from the inside. But he was still trying to figure out how to say it. After a few moment longer of uncomfortable silence, he finally decided to just make it up as he went.
"I… I was really worried while you were gone," He began quietly, avoiding eye contact by staring intently at his hands as he picked at a loose thread on the hem of his shirt. "I had no idea where you were or if you were okay or if you," he paused, not really wanting to continue. "Or if you just didn't want me…" he half whispered, suddenly very self conscious of his insecurities, even more so following his revelation from earlier. "Am I not worth a phone call or a letter or… anything?" He asked quietly, grabbing his plate and setting it on the counter, facing away from Lile as tears began to cloud his vision.
"No no no," Lile blurted, his expression twisting as unnamed emotions grabbed hold of him. He stood hurriedly, the stool clattering to the floor in his rush, but he ignored it in favour of rushing around the island to clutch at Henry's shoulder. In a rare show of strength, the executioner spun the large man around, cupping his stubble rough cheek to guide the blond's gaze to his own.
"Henry, I… I'm so sorry." he murmured, his heart aching at the tears pooled in those blue eyes. He'd done this; this was his fault. "It was all so hurried, and I didn't know who I could trust to tell you… who I could write without risk of the letter being read…"
Lile trailed off, at a loss for words to explain why he would rather risk earning Henry's loathing than his head. Well, he had words, three little ones that on their own meant very little, but when combined, could change the world.
"Henry," Lile said, with something close to reverence in his voice, a smile he was helpless to control curving his lips. "I love you."

Local organizations are granted funds through HILCO's Operation Round Up® Program
Operation Round Up® is a voluntary program in which residential members of HILCO Electric Cooperative, Inc. sign up to have their electric bills rounded upward to the next dollar.
Every month, the additional pennies, nickels and dimes are added to a special fund.
The Operation Round Up® Trust Board, comprised of representatives of the HILCO districts, meets once a quarter to review applications and to decide how the funds are to be allocated.
At their July meeting, HILCO Electric's Trust Board voted to disburse $10,496.24 to nine organizations in the HILCO service area. These funds were donated during the second quarter of 2010.
Grant checks were presented on Thursday, Aug. 5 at the Whitney HILCO office. On hand to help with the presentations was Trust Board Member Richard Turner and Board Directors Ron Roberts, Jan Smith and George Thiess.
The following organizations were recipients of the first quarter funds disbursements:
· Aquilla Scholarship Foundation, Inc. (Aquilla) $500 - Funds for college scholarships
· Building Leaders Using Education (Covington) $2,000 - Contribution for the after school program
· Ellis Christian Women's Job Corps (Waxahachie) $600 – Contribution towards four new computers
· Ellis Co. Honor Flight (Waxahachie) $1,200 - Contribution for Washington DC trip for WWII veterans
· House Where Jesus Shines (Waco) $2,842.50 - Commercial grade freezer
· Isaiah's Place, Inc. (Whitney) $553.74 - Educational materials and scholarship fund
· Lake Whitney Ministerial Alliance-School Supply Committee (Whitney) $1,000 - School supplies for needy children
· Waxahachie Care Services (Waxahachie) $1,000 - Food for the food pantry/food bank
· Waxahachie Preparatory Academy (Waxahachie) $800 - Start up cost for volleyball program
Since the Operation Round Up® program began in 2001, more than $440,063.90 has been returned to communities within the HILCO service area. This has been made possible from the generosity of residential members who have opted to participate monthly in the program. Members may have their names added to or removed from the program by calling HILCO at 254-687-2331 or 800-338-6425.

What is 3D printing?
In simple words, 3D printing is a process of converting a digital object into a real solid object. A real object is printed layer by layer from the raw material. A digital file is given as a input to the 3D printer and we get a real object as a output. There is no limitation on the object, it can be anything like your new toy design or a tooth-brush or any part of the machine. In short a 3D printer can print anything!
Raw material used in 3D printing
Currently, there are some limitations on raw materials. Generally plastics like ABS, PLA, PVA , soft PLA and metals like stainless steel, titanium, silver, steel, gold are used. Other materials like chocolate, bio-ink, skin etc are also widely used depending on the object to be printed.
Applications of 3D printing
3D printing has N number of applications, we can't even imagine how useful it is! Some of the applications of 3D modelling are as follows.
- Orthopaedics
- Automotive industry
- Aerospace industry
- Fashion designing
- Cloning cells
- Art
- Jewellry
- Interior design
Currently the short supply of kidneys in organ banks is an increasing obstacle. While research is still in its trial phase in Japan, the possibility of bio-printing or printing of live tissue reducing this gap promises that the technology has good scope in transplantation. -Dr Narinder Mehra, head of the department of Transplant Immunology & Immunogenetics at AIIMS, New Delhi.You can just prove your concept with 3D printing and that too at a very speedy rate. You can build anything that you have dreamed if, you can give shape to your imagination.
Scenario in India
Almost every other modern technology has certain barriers to expand industry , and 3D printing is not an exclusion .As the 3D printing market in India is at a nascent phase and is developing gradually and progressively , there are numerous elements that may obstruct adoption . Considering the market is at a young age and there is certainly lack of sufficient awareness regarding the advantages of the 3d printing , adoption is seen as scarce . Still , estimates prove that the market is set to experience a growth in the next two to three years . An additional element to be looked at is the price of technology . Having 3D printers set up in each and every company set-up may not be financially viable resulting in lower adoption rates . Still companies today have developed reasonably priced ink-jet based desktop computer 3D printers which are being increasingly useful for manufacturing 3D prototypes at a considerably lower cost using 3D printing.
Future of 3D printing
In future, we will see 3D printers printing objects using two or more different raw materials. This will further increase the usefulness of 3D printing technology. This technology is moving rapidly on a global degree and provides something which some time ago was not possible : On-demand , at any time , at any place , by any one manufacturing . Its time to make a change with this technology. Just remember , if you don't , your levels of competition are going to.

I've never talked about this, because what reason would I ever have had to talk about this? In what I believe was the Summer of 2001 I flew down to Miami, Florida with my then-girlfriend to attend the wedding of her older sister to a very tall NBA player named Dwayne Schintzius. My memories of this whole time period are very fuzzy, but I recall hanging out with him a few times including spending some time at their house and visiting the chain restaurant they'd opened together in Ybor City. I remember the wedding reception: a lot more very tall men dancing with the kinds of tanned and enhanced women you'd expect to see populating Miami. At the time Dwayne was in-between teams and looking to play again. He was a nice guy, funny, easy-going, again that's based on only several interactions with him but he always seemed like a good person. The marriage didn't last very long after that, but neither did my relationship with that girlfriend.
I was saddened in a way that I couldn't quite figure out when I heard about Dwayne's passing. I hadn't seen or spoken to him since that weekend and there is no way in hell he would've remembered who I was without a lot of explanation, but there's something about the too-soon passing of someone that I tangentially knew in real life that makes it feel closer than if I'd just heard about any other athlete succumbing to leukemia.
So, RIP Dwayne.

text: GamesBeat Survey of the 2013 Gaming Post-Apocalypse December 30, 2012 4:53 PM Reggie Carolipio 0 This post has not been edited by the GamesBeat staff. Opinions by GamesBeat community writers do not necessarily reflect those of the staff.Shooters Aliens: Colonial Marines – Gearbox Software, TimeGate Studios (OnLive, PS3, Wii U, Windows, Xbox 360) Game site February 12, 2013 What is it? Gearbox will be packing players into cryotubes when February rolls around to welcome players back to LV426. Gearbox is handling this one and with Fox considering this as part of the Aliens canon as a sequel to Cameron's film revisiting famous locales such as the Sulaco in orbit to the remnants of the colony on the ground, it promises to be raise the bar early next year when it comes to expanding the mythology of the series in the way that Ghostbusters did in 2009. Army of Two: The Devil's Cartel – Visceral Games (PS3, Xbox 360) Game site March 26, 2013 What is it? EA's third-person bromance shooter is coming out for a third outing, hopefully with a more coherent story than the last game. This time, it's two new bros that are heading into battle together in Mexico as part of a PMC group going up against a drug cartel called La Guadana. Expect plenty of shooting, explosions, and brofists to go along with the bodies left in their wake. Battlefield 4 – EA (Windows, PS3, Xbox 360) Official Battlefield site Fall 2013 What is it? With a beta slated for the autumn of 2013, it's safe to assume that the game will be coming out shortly afterward for the usual platforms if their previous history is any indicator. Little else is known about the game such as what new things will be added in or where it's even going to take place. But fans probably won't care as long as it keeps its team-based multiplayer as fun as they have made it with oodles of extras. Crysis 3 – Crytek (PS3, Xbox 360, Windows) Game site February 19, 2013 What is it? Crysis 2 saw the alien menace smash into New York and plunge players into a conspiracy involving the super armor they wore which made them stealthier, deadlier, and slightly more bulletproof depending on what they wanted it to do. The third game promises to deliver even more do-as-you-like action backed by Crytek's sparkly new CryEngine 3 as they head back into what is left of New York, now sealed like Tupperware inside a mysterious dome. Earth Defense Force 2017 – Sandlot (Vita) Game site February 12, 2013 What is it? It's a port of the same game which was released for the Xbox 360 in Japan in 2006 and later in North America in 2007. Big bugs, UFOs, guns, and lots of shooting coupled with plenty of unlockable weapons made this a cult favorite on consoles, so it could be interesting to see how it uses the Vita's hardware to enhance the experience. Gears of War: Judgment – Epic Games (Xbox 360) Game site March 19, 2013 What is it? Another series joins the prequel bandwagon as Gears of War recruits players into the early days of the Locust War, fourteen years before the first game, as a youthful Lieutenant Baird. One of the new additions to multiplayer is the OverRun class-based mode pitting attacking Locust players against defending Gears. Players hoping to play as a Medic resurrecting fallen team members or as a sneaky Scout spoiling enemy positions might find even more reasons to hit this up when it arrives next year. Killzone: Mercenary – Guerrilla Games (Vita) Game site TBA 2013 What is it? A shooter for the Vita which will apparently focus on playing nice alongside both Helghan and ISA forces as a merc for hire doing the dirty work no one wants. The really dirty work. The live action trailer at Playstation's blog above brings out its basic concepts and a bit of what the actual game looks like, but there hasn't been anything else coming out of Guerrilla about the title or from anyone else since then. Lost Planet 3 – Spark Unlimited (PS3, Windows, Xbox 360) Game site TBA 2013 What is it? The third installment is in the hands of Spark Unlimited, a developer whose history has been stacked with plenty of vision teetering atop arguably shaky execution. But Capcom is banking on their talent for delivering ambitious ideas into a solid, open-world prequel for their struggling series which will feature a stronger emphasis on its story as well as side missions for players looking to squeeze a bit more out of the third-person gameplay. A lot is riding on this one. Metro: Last Light – 4A Games (PS3, Windows, Xbox 360) Game site March 2013 What is it? The terrifying follow-up to the first game promises more post-apocalyptic action in the bowels of Moscow's subway network where bullets are traded as currency, horrors lurk above and below, and where civilization has made city-states out of the vast stations tying the tunnels together. The first game was a surprisingly refreshing shooter with a number of interesting tweaks to the formula turning a typical FPS into a gritty adventure colored with horror and survival in 2034. Rise of the Triad – Interceptor Entertainment (Windows) Game site Q1 2013 What is it? A reboot/revival of the original Rise of the Triad from '95 by 3D Realms, now featuring Unreal Engine 3 powered gibs and all of the crazy weapons like Drunk Missiles soon to explode on players' screens in this PC exclusive. Solo players can play through 20 levels across four episodes of action, or skip it and head straight into multiplayer. An international team pulling disciplines from around the world is working on this nostalgic super-trip into gibland and more than a few old school players are waiting to see if it sticks to the no regenerating health, zero cover flavor of the bloody original. Shootmania – Nadeo (Windows) Game site January 23, 2013 What is it? An FPS based on Nadeo's TrackMania series, it hopes to bring in the same level of creativity into building stages, setting game rules, and letting players go crazy in blasting each other with whatever they can get their hands on. If you have a level designer itching to get out, Shootmania might be the game to share those ideas with the world. Sniper Elite V2 – Rebellion (Wii U) Game site March 5, 2013 What is it? The Wii U port of the re-imagined sniper title from Rebellion which came out in May for Windows, the PS3, and the Xbox 360. It's hard to not see it as part of the push to entice "hardcore" gamers with its eerily violent bullet vision as well as another hand-me-down from the current generation. Still, not a bad game if you like sniping titles. Sniper: Ghost Warrior 2 – City Interactive (Windows, PS3, Xbox 360) Game site January 15, 2013 What is it? Built using Crytek's CryEngine3, this sequel to what I thought was a mediocre shooter promises to improve upon everything that was broken in the first game. Instead of being stuck in a jungle yet again, the game promises to take the player around the world. Tom Clancy's Rainbow 6: Patriots – Ubisoft (PS3, Windows, Xbox 360) Game site TBA 2013 What is it? The latest Rainbow 6 game will apparently be channeling populist anger at Wall Street via a group of terrorists that call themselves the "True Patriots" whom Team Rainbow have to try and stop. Little else has been shown or revealed about the game since then, although a number of leads had all been 'restructured' out of the team behind it including the Creative Lead. I'm tentatively holding onto the hope it'll be out in 2013, but it's only a guess. The Walking Dead: Survival Instinct – Terminal Reality (PS3, Windows, Xbox 360) Game site TBA 2013 What is it? This is the action-packed take on AMC's phenomenally popular show, The Walking Dead, featuring the Dixon brothers as they fight their way through Georgia on their way to Atlanta. Players will apparently be able to blast everything in sight or sneak by zombies while meeting up with people that are probably just as desperate as they are. It's expected sometime in 2013. XCOM – 2K Games (PS3, Windows, Xbox 360) Game site TBA 2013 What is it? Not to be confused with its strategic squad-focused cousin which came out in October, this one was intended as a first-person tactical shooter which has been swirling around in development hell for the past six or so years, trading developers several times since 2006. Die-hard fans and veterans of the original series weren't too impressed by its initial trailers which seemed to throw away everything that the series was and it soon disappeared into relative obscurity as attention was focused on Firaxis' version which was much more faithful to its source. With rumors that it could now be a third-person shooter similar to Republic Commando, rumblings seem to also push the idea that 2K might simply be moving to "cutting its losses" and unload the game in whatever shape it's in now.

Well… My usual green and tan peacoat that you have already seen me in is one of my 'casual' favorites. I like wearing it when I'm out and about doing my daily business.
But I recently found a new jacket I have grown quite fond of that I wear to any out-of-town business meetings that I (have no choice but to) attend…
… too much?
I've been told my face is a little too 'youthful' for such a 'mature' coat…

Anyone done any EPDM roof re-saeling lately?? What product did you use? How well/not well did it work??? Anyone try that Kool-seal on an EPDM roof? Dicor?? Another brand?
Looking to re-seal my MH roof, trying to save money for Yellowstone trip in July. Obviously would like to save a few hundred or more. Again, looking to hear from DIY'ers who have re-sealed thier own roof.

But Syndicate, at least the campaign, was pretty disappointing. At first, it had purpose and power, but little plot. Then when some semblance of plot popped up, it lost most of the purpose and power. Explain THAT shit to me…
I won't spoil it because, while I don't think many of you give any fucks I just don't do that, but the game plays with very similar themes that Deus Ex: Human Revolution does. This is good… on paper.
Deus Ex was a very mature game that dealt with all of these questions and theories and feelings regarding transhumanism, technology, corporatism and even evolution a bit.
Syndicate dips its toe in all of these pools… but the shallow end. When Deus Ex just fuck-you-dives right in the deep end.
If Deus Ex is a sophisticated movie with a pretty damn good script, good plot and amazing acting that is complemented by exceptional cinematography and direction, then Syndicate is the Michael Bay popcorn flick counterpart that tries to reach out oh so desperately to the heights of the former movie described. Both films can be good in their own right, and the market is big enough for the both of them, but it's clear who will come out on top when all is said and done.
In fact, now that I think about it… if Deus Ex was adapted to a movie by someone that was only handed a synopsis of the game from Wikipedia, I think Syndicate would be the final product. Which is… sad, but true.
I had fun; the guns are really fun to use, some are pretty damn inventive. The action is good. The game is deceptively difficult, even on Normal. But holy shit, I wish I wouldn't have spent $60 on it (ACTUALLY IT WAS JUST $23 OUT OF MY POCKET BUT NOW I'M JUST SPLITTING HAIRS).
The real saving grace here is the co-op. The co-op is probably the most fun co-op I've played since Borderlands. If you have friends that (stupidly) bought this as soon as it came out, you can't go wrong with the co-op.
Enemy agents are so hard.
Corporations in Syndicate go hard in the paint.

First off, my weekend went by super fast. I really like going home once in awhile. I was able to get a haircut and my car washed, which was nice. But, the best parts were seeing my dog, Katie, and my best friends.
I brought home a tutu for Katie and could not stop taking pictures of her in it. She is too adorable.
The other Katie and I visited our friend's school and celebrated a late Halloween.
I roasted acorn squash the other day using this recipe. I left out the brown sugar and used spray butter instead of regular butter, but it tasted kinda like a pancake with the maple syrup on it. I like it and will probably try a more savory version next time.
My main focus for this post is to just highlight the brands of running shoes that have worked the best for me. I don't have any affiliation with any of these companies, just my honest opinions.
Do you remember a few years ago when these were popular?
I had a pair because it was high school and EVERYONE had to get them. Even though I like Nike for some of their apparel–running shirts, shorts, headbands–I avoid buying their running shoes. I have a pair of Nike athletic shoes that I'll wear to walk around in or go to class, but when it comes to exercising, Nike shoes don't give me the right amount of support in my arches. Also, Nike Shox have been shown to be "biomedically unsound and can result in knee and back problems" due to the heel lift (The Bootcamp Effect). If you're solely looking for vanity and shoes that look good, go for Nike, but if you actually want to workout in your athletic gear, go for another brand.
I have bought countless pairs of running shoes from long-distance cross-country spikes to shoes designed for trail running and even sprinting spikes. Usually, I go to a specialty running shoes store as opposed to Dick's sporting goods because the prices generally aren't as high. The ONE TIME I had my feet fitted and had a person working at the store recommend a brand of running shoes specifically for the needs of my feet, I hated them. The store guy watched my walk, my running stride and looked at my feet. I explained any issues I had with my feet and what I was looking for in my shoes. He recommended a pair of Mizunos. I decided to give them a try even though they were not my go-to brand.
Within two weeks of wearing them, I had shin pains and increased problems with my arches that I had never experienced before. I have flat feet and am slightly pigeon-toed when I run, so maybe Mizunos just weren't right for me. All I have to say is, I will never try them out for my feet, again. I lasted a month or so in them before I had to get new shoes because there was no way I would make it through the cross-country season with them.
You may already have figured it out, but Asics are by far, my favorite and most trusted brand for running shoes. I have had seriously more pairs than I can count in the past ten years and love them. They have consistently provided enough support for my arches without feeling heavy on my feet. Their grips on the bottom have saved me from slips while running on muddy trails or in the snow. I can't even remember developing shin splints or shoe-related injuries with my Asics. I just can't say enough about them. Definitely look into buying a pair if you don't have a lot of experience choosing running shoes. On a side note, they always have an assortment of bright colors, which I love. I have my eye set on the hot pink pair on the bottom ;)
I hope my personal experiences with shoe selection helps!

Who's.amung.us shows your star if you are a reader of this blog. I wanted to capture a full month, but wanted to show you the first 2 days [08/31 & 09/01] and an interim on the 17th. Now, I'm cutting off 2 hours because I have packing to do and an early start in the morning. Here you are & thank you so very much. I'll clear the stars at midnight tonight and note where our hits come from Friday and Saturday.
Monthly Archives: September 2010
White Oak Century, 10/01 & 10/02 ~ Update
Here is the latest information I have from Dr. Parker:
1) Maria plans to start [weather permitting] at 6:00 a.m. Friday morning, 10/01 versus 6:30. Please tune in early. This century will likely be over before 11:00 a.m. EDT.
2) Mike arrives in North Carolina tomorrow afternoon, Thursday, 09/30. He will not give the Vendetta a spin until Maria has completed her century. He will see the route, but not likely ride it before his record attempt on Saturday morning. We'll have his ride decision Friday afternoon—Silvio or Vendetta.
There you have it. I look forward to interacting with you Friday and Saturday. –jim

In 1955, Mrs Turtle gave a gift of £1,000 to further the development of psychology in Queen's University. Subsequent correspondence indicated that Mrs Turtle agreed that the use of the money should be at the discretion of the Head of the Department of Psychology and the "formula" for use should be flexible. Her primary concern was to foster the applications of psychology in the community. Mrs Turtle was concerned to foster the training of non-medical psychologists for work in the clinical and child guidance field. She was not interested in experimental psychology, nor in industrial psychology but, with these qualifications, she gave the Department of Psychology a free hand in the employment of the money.
This fund, established in 1955, derives from a gift of £1,000 from Mrs Emily L. Turtle to the School of Psychology to be used at the discretion of the Director of School to foster the application of psychology in the community.
A grant of £115 per week will be awarded for up to a maximum of 6 weeks for the purpose of supporting an Undergraduate summer scholarship that has a developmental focus and is linked to the community.
Operational Regulations:
Projects will be advertised on the School website and Level 2 students will be notified of the scheme. Students must meet with the supervisors beforehand and the supervisor must sign the proposal form.
The School research committee will choose a project and it is the best student who applies (i.e. best student following interview by the supervisor). It is the same process as our Summer Scholarships.
The closing dates for student applications will be the end of March.
The best proposal linked to the community considered by the Management Board will be awarded the Mrs Emily Turtle grant.
Amended February 2014
Musgrave Demonstratorship
In 1922 Mr Henry Musgrave, through his will, established a readership in Physics. The income was never sufficient to meet the salary of a reader and application was made to the Court to have the bequest varied.
The court ordered that the income be devoted to the payment of the salaries of one or more demonstrators in the Department of Physics, that the position should be in addition to existing staff and that any unexpended balance form a fund to be styled "The Musgrave Physics Fund" and be available for exceptional expenditure on equipment or research in the department.
All Physics PhD Students in the first three years of their degree are eligible to undertake laboratory demonstration, if they wish. The process is co-ordinated through an academic responsible for each level. Those students who undertake demonstrating are paid at the end of each semester. Any shortfall in available income from the Musgrave fund is supplemented by the School.

I said from day one that father of Madonna's new baby, David, was going to be trouble. Day one. The guy is going to be a thorn in Madge's side until she's six feet under. That's why she should have adopted a kid who was truly an orphan. Anyway, here's his latest quote about Madonna to Malawi's Daily Times.
"I don't have her phone and mailing addresses. All I want is to find out how my son is but I don't know how I can do it," Yohane Banda said. "I only talked to her once at the High Court and I want to talk to her now and find out about my child. All I want is to find out how my child is doing and not to have him back."
He may not want him back today, but he's gonna want him back eventually. I can smell it.
Funny -- Madge is such a smart businesswoman yet she made such a stupid decision with this adoption.

Mobile Users More Vulnerable To Phishing Attacks
CmdrTaco posted more than 3 years ago | from the it's-the-tiny-fonts dept.92
Orome1 writes "Trusteer recently gained access to the log files of several web servers that were hosting phishing websites. Analyzing these log files provided visibility into how many users accessed the websites, when they visited them, whether they submitted their login information, and what devices they used to access the website. As soon as a phishing website is broadcast through fraudulent email messages the first systems to visit it are typically mobile devices. Most fraudulent emails call for immediate action. For example, they usually claim that suspicious activity has been detected in the user's account and that immediate action is required. Most victims who fall for this ploy will visit the phishing site quickly."

Haskell is a language that requires a lot of thinking, code is shorter because it is smarter. The curryfication and composition of functions, combined with the Lazy Evaluation makes the language one of the most interesting and unique in the field.
I would like to tackle Real World Problems and also get deeper into the Algebra theory behind it.
I have been studying Haskell since late 2007, I really like it given the great level of expressiveness the language has, also it always manages to bend my brain until a point it will actually hurt (in a good way).

To explore whether intensive case management would reduce discharged psychiatric inpatients' rates of rehospitalization and increase their use of out patient ambulatory care services, the authors assigned 435 patients discharged from a public general hospital in New York City to three types of post discharge services: multidisciplinaty intensive outreach case management, less intensive Community Support System (CSS) case management services, or routine after care but no case management. Patients eligible for CSS weregenerally more impaired and bad more extensive histories of psychiatric hospitalization. At follow-up 18 to 52 months after entering the study, patients who received intensive outreach case management had twice as many psychiatric hospitalizations as the routine after-care group and bad a pattern of utilization of hospital-based ambulatory care services similar to the more impaired CSS group. intensive outreach case management did not appear to stimulate sufficient use of ambulatory care services to reduce patients' frequency of psychiatric hospitalization.

Robert Carey, who served as principal deputy CIO at the Defense Department for three-and-a-half years before stepping down last month, revealed at his April 11 retirement party that he will join CSC as vice president of public sector, cyber.
Before becoming DOD's principal deputy CIO in October 2010, Carey spent four years as CIO of the Department of the Navy.
A veteran of the Gulf and Iraq wars, Carey was also a 2013 Federal 100 winner and was named Defense Executive of the Year for 2009 by GCN, FCW's sister publication.
CSC officials declined to comment on Carey's role at the Falls Church, Va.-based firm.
CSC ranked 15th on the Federal Procurement Data System's list of the top 100 government contractors in 2013; the company earned $3.47 billion under federal contracts last year. One of the products in Carey's charge could be an offering CSC released earlier this month called AppSEC on Demand, which tests the security of software and helps clients build security into the development process.

Best at Home Microdermabrasion System?
- TheRealAmani
- Mobile, AL
- 2 years ago
I know, I know...everyone recommends going to a professional. I definitely agree, because I go all the time! The issue is I'm starting to realize how much I pay at the dermatologists office every week, and it's just far too much. Mind you, I don't even have bad skin! So I'm converting to at home systems! I've gone ahead and purchased a blue light, a red light, and now I'm looking for a nice microdermabrasion machine. I'm looking for a bit of advice on what works and what doesn't work! Thanks!
Comments (7)
can you recommend checmicals for pre and post treatment. I just purchased a machine for home use, and wouldl ike to start on the right track in cleansing, cooling cream afterwords, antibacterial,e tc....what brands and preparation steps are you using. thanks
Before I made the purchase, I searched for reviews and feedback for various different machines and I couldn't find much to go on so, I kind of rolled the dice on this one. I was surprised at the minimal amount of information on real microdermabrasion machines on the market.
Now for my review, I absolutely LOVE my microderm machine ! It comes with nine different diamond tip's of varying sizes and function's, 2 different sized ultrasonic probe's and a skin scrubber that also utilizes ultrasonic waves. The suction is incredible and it came with 120 filters so, they will last quite a while but, I did look into replacement parts & filters and they are easy to get as well. The machine is an actual professional microdermabrasion machine and I feel like I came out on top with this one.
I definitely did my homework when it came to operating the machine and there is a little bit of a learning curve but, with the help of the operating manual & youtube tutorials, I've mastered it.
I hope this helps.

- Disappointed visitorOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 10/20/2014I booked a reservation upon a recommendation for our trip to SF for my 50th birthday. I noted this was the occasion in the comment box, hoping they might take notice upon our arrival. Nope nothing was said, no special service nor table was given. In fact we sat at the most crammed table in the front of the restaurant - many business people there. My 40 clove chicken meal was good. Tiramisu was ok. With all the fabulous places to eat in this city, I would not recommend. Sorry to say, but it was not what I expected and might have rather went to Olive Garden.
- Always FunOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 10/19/2014We come here every year after the Women's Nike Run....it's fun and colorful. Since we don't live in Northern California, we do make a special effort to come to North Beach to have dinner here. The appetizers are delicious and for dinner, gnocci is always a choice.Special Features:
- classictomzDined on 10/17/2014This restaurant always exceeds my expectations. Food is excellent. I would recommend this place to anyone. I am a garlic lover and they do not disappoint.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Lovers!FelicaLovesNathanDined on 10/12/2014We make sure to visit the Stinking Rose every time we visit San Fransisco!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Over rated awful experienceSeanVIPDined on 10/11/2014After hearing about how great this restaurant was our entire party was severely disappointed in the awful service and the fairy low rate food quality. With so many good restaurants in San Francisco I don't know how this place has survived this long. We will not be going back
- Touristy, But TastyOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 10/11/2014This is clearly a touristy restaurant. But that doesn't detract from the food. Garlic lovers, you'll be pleased. As long as you don't mind being a little stinky when you leave, as the smell will get into your clothes. The food is delicious. They move people along, so the wait isn't usually too bad. Make sure to eat the garlic fondue appetizer. Delicious!Special Features:
- Always a good timeKeithSFVIPDined on 10/11/2014I've been coming to the Stinking Rose for years, and I think the food is as good or better now than it has ever been. Definitely nothing subtle about the food. Gotta love the garlic. Better for vegetarians now, too. They've added a new vegetarian spaghetti Bolognese that has meatless balls. Really. And I really liked it. I brought visitors from Minneapolis and they couldn't say enough about how good the food was. The biggest hit was the Panzanella salad – tomatoes, onions, pine nuts & croutons. I get that every time I go.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Mmm MMM GarlicJaimeLadyDined on 10/11/2014You have to be a garlic lover in order to appreciate and enjoy "The Stinking Rose". They put garlic on everything, and if you don't have enough garlic, they have a garlic relish to add to it! I mean, they even had Garlic Ice Cream, though I wasn't brave enough to try that! It's very tasty and for sure a nice place for a special occasion.Special Features:
- 40 CLOVE CHICKEN EXCELLENTdavenickoDined on 10/11/2014The 40 clove Chicken was as good as we remembered if not better.The lasagna was not so good,too cheesy,as I saw other good looking dishes come out of the kitchen I almost ordered the lamb,next time lamb and chicken.Also the garlic relish with the bread was superSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Not for the LocalsCrabitDined on 10/10/2014The food was ordinary. The patrons were tourists.
- Stinks sooooo niceAurorafoodieDined on 10/7/2014Second time eating here and did not disappoint! My shellfish allergic wife had a braised short rib that was outstanding and I had a cioppino to die for! The waiter was very knowledgeable about the menu and the te of them were spot-on with service. Of course the garlic ice cream was a perfect way to top off the evening.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Only worth if you love garlichelocat101Dined on 10/7/2014Upon entering, you could hear, pretty clearly, the kitchen staff scolding the Asian waitress. She asked for a ticket stub, and the head cook just let her have it. The manager came out to see what was going, but didn't really do much besides ask what was going on and not really doing anything about the situation. Sure, they spoke Spanish, but it was really unprofessional to be screaming in front of the clients whether or not they can understand you or not. It's also a work environment. Sure, it may be a tough job, but there is no need to make it harder for your co-workers. In fact, even though the Asian waitress wasn't the best waitress, she was the best waitress in the restaurant. The manager (big beard) wasn't doing anything. Food is meh.Special Features:
- SFFanDined on 10/5/2014This was the first restaurant that we visited in our first trip to San Francisco--about nine years ago. The food wasn't memorable, but the place was. That's why we decided to visit The Stinking Rose once more, nine years and two kids later. I was reading a review where someone wrote, the food lacks the "wow factor", and I agree. The food is not bad at all, and I still like the place...just don't expect to be blown away :) I may visit it again, and who knows, maybe the third time's a charm.Special Features:
- disappointedOpenTable Diner Since 2010Dined on 10/4/2014My party of four was seated upstairs around two large, very loud groups. Our waiter appeared to be annoyed to be working. Very unfriendly. Prices are high for small portions. I ordered a shrimp tureen and sent it back. It was like a pizza sauce with rubbery shrimp buried in it and incredibly salty!! Other dishes, pasta and gnocci were at least flavorful. We will not be returning to this restaurant.
- Worth the waitSarahBVIPDined on 10/4/2014When I arrived and was given an estimated 25 min wait time even though I'd made a reservation a week in advance, I was annoyed. But they ended up seating us much sooner. The wait staff was clearly swamped but still very accommodating and kind.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Yes,You can overdose on Garlic!AAHHOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 10/4/2014We started the Bagna Calda. followed bya Med. rare Garlic Crusted Prime (melt in your mouth, make you slap yo mama!) rib filet!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Awesome food!! Awesome service!JenrevDined on 10/4/2014We came here with a party of 12 sat night. The food was awesome! Service was top notch! My hubby and I ordered the garlic crab... So yummy and plenty for 2! Also ordered the garlic with French bread for a starter... A must have! No cork fee makes it even better! Defiantly would recommend this restaurant! Everything in our party was loved what they ordered! We will be back!!!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- UncomfortableOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 10/2/2014It was uncomfortably hot. No ac. Food was good and if it had not been so unbearably hot, it would have been a super great dining experience.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Very good, but...OpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 10/1/2014Went here with my husband for our anniversary because he is a garlic lover. We enjoyed our meals and there were plenty of garlic cloves accompanying our dishes (especially mine being the 40 Clove Garlic Chicken). He HAD hoped, however, that the cloves would have been prepared a bit differently; he thought they looked more like a garnish. Dishes, nevertheless, were very tasty and flavorful. Would still come here againSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Really enjoyable experienceBulldogvetmsuDined on 9/29/2014It was a very busy night according to the waitress, but since we had a reservation we were seated immediately. We enjoyed the experience immensely. There was plenty of interesting items to look at. The food was delicious and it was definitely worth visiting.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Fun placeValerieVIPDined on 9/28/2014This was a fun place to take family visiting from out of town. Unique, charming and good food. I would take guests here again for a fun San Francisco experience.Special Features:
- Great Food but allow plenty of timeKatprintDined on 9/27/2014If you like garlicky food, you will love this restaurant! We started with the Garlic Spinach Fontina Fondue which I really recommend. My husband had Garlic Roasted Prime Rib which was a generous portion and really, really delicious. I had Chicken and Asparagus Pasta which was also very good. The only drawback was the extremely long wait. We were seated within 15 min of our reservation but it took 10-15 min for anyone to come take our drink orders, then another 10-15 min to bring our drinks and a menu, then another 10-15 min to take our food order, then about 20 min before we got our appetizer, then another 30 min to bring our meals. We expected an hour for dinner but it took almost two hours and we worried we might miss our concert.Special Features:
- Casual DinnerFoodCoachDined on 9/27/2014We got to the restaurant 45 min early and the staff was able to accommodate us with out a problem. we had a great table on the 2nd floor, our waitress was fantastic, and the food incredible (your must like (LOVE) garlic). I will recommend the restaurant and your service to anyone.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great food and serviceFoodblogDined on 9/26/2014Great food and service. Very veggie friendly. I will defiantly go to eat there againSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- JudeDined on 9/26/2014The food was great. I would highly recommend going there.Special Features:
- An evening of garlicFrequentDinerDined on 9/26/2014First of all I love Garlic! Menu was limited, service was slow and I didn't get the Garlic infusion that I imagined.
- Love the service!SillyDined on 9/26/2014Our waiter was fantastic! He's recommendations were wonderful and he remembered I mentioned it was my husbands birthday when I made the reservation. My husband said how much he liked the garlic and parsley in oil and he brought out a large to go container of it to take home. We will definitely be back!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Not upto our expectationsnaviodiner4Dined on 9/25/2014The food was a bit underwhelming for what we had expected. Their signature dish - Bagna Calda was not as 'unique' as we were expecting it to be. I ordered the Lamb Shank and it was cooked well and served with mashed potatoes and flava beans. However, nothing unique about the dish. My wife ordered the Butter sauce Fresh Fettuccine and she didn't feel like the pasta was freshly made. The seating is also not very comfortable and it felt like the table is too far away from the chairs (fixed) and you have to continuously lean in to get involved in the food or have a conversation. The ambiance is uniquely designed with wine bottles and garlics hanging from the ceiling but nothing extraordinary. May be were expecting a little too much.
- Two Thumbs Up!MAL1VIPDined on 9/24/2014I brought a group of 15 and was concerned that only one waitress was assigned to my table. Jaclyn was excellent and handled the group wonderfully!!

- If you love garlic then this is it!OpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 9/20/2014I had been here once previously on a trip to San Francisco & enjoyed it, this time I didn't find the food to be as good. I had the rabbit which I focus to be quite tough & hard to eat. My partner had the lamb shank though & said it was wonderful so maybe I just made the wrong choice! Very good service though.Special Features:

- Great foodJennyDined on 9/20/2014The food is great and the furnishings are interesting. It's a tight squeeze if you are dining with a group larger than four. The noise level is very high.Special Features:
- Garlic ParadiseStinkinFoodiesDined on 9/20/2014We always love the Stinking Rose! We went with friends after seeing Motown. Two of us had the ribs (for the first time), which were a big hit. One of us had the garlic potato soup, and she loved it. I had the meatloaf, which wasn't garlicy enough for me, but was good. I thought the meatloaf and potatoes would benefit from some (garlic) sauce. It's good to try new things, even though we have our faves at the Stinking Rose.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- A "Must Do" in San FranciscoFoodieKatDined on 9/19/2014This was on our list because it's one of San Francisco's landmark restaurants. The food was good, service excellent. We went into it without expectations and pretty much only for the tourist factor, so we weren't disappointed, but there are much better Italian restaurants in Little Italy.I would recommend this to a friend.
- Not as good as I rememberedSnoopy1Dined on 9/19/2014Been here many times and I am not a fan of the booths with the cabana tops. The seatbacks are uncomfortable. The food is not as good either. Not sure why. Other's may disagree but I don't think the food is as good as it was 10 + years ago.Special Features:
