Top Ten Bites
- larochelle Jul 31, 2006 12:36 AM
I'll be visiting your fair city this week, staying in Dupont. I'm digging through this site (& washingtonpost.com) and finding lots of interesting options. But I'm having a hard time figuring out what is unique to Washington DC or is just so damn good I shouldn't miss it.
What are the 10 things you think it would be absolutely criminal to leave without tasting?
For example, I'm from San Francisco and among my top ten SF bites are (in no particular order): champagne float from Citizen Cake, tofu banh mi from Saigon Sandwiches, pain epi from Acme, gougere from Tartine, hankerchief pasta/pork ragu from Incanto, Tommy's margaritas, fruit at the Ferry Bldg Market.
Here are some of the cheap must dos:
- Ben's Chili Bowl (http://www.benschilibowl.com/) is a must. I know lots of people say it has gone down hill, but it is truly a local gem in a sea of chain restaurants.
- Picking crabs down at the Maine Avenue Fish Market. Blue Crabs are a surprise for many west coasters. I have family in SF and they are always amazed at how much tastier our crabs are than the west coast varieties (don't worry, I still love west coast seafood). Old Bay Seasoning is also new for many who are not from the east coast.
- Any authentic BBQ joint, meaning Pulled Pork BBQ. BBQ is noun down here, not a verb refering to food grilled over an open flame. Geographically, DC is probably the first city of the South (meaning Baltimore is the last city of the North). I know the current trend is to call us Mid-
Atlantic, but that always seems like cop out trying to addressing a little dispute that occurred sometime in the 1860s. Here you will find more of a southern influence in our local foods.
- I don't know about the rest of the hounds out there, but I always feel like I am a part of the DC political scene when I am at Old Ebbets Grill or the Fox and Hound.
re: cimabue
Agree on Ben's.
Save BBQ for a trip somewhere that actually has good BBQ. The "southerness" of DC is, in my opinion, of a geographic nature only (and in that sense both baltimore and DC are below the mason-dixon line and - at least originally - on Maryland land), you can get very good traditional southern "soul" food at Oohs and Aahs. I would replace BBQ with an Ooh's and Aah's trip on your itinerary.
[Aside - there are any number of opinions as to where the South starts. My friends in new england and canada think of Baltimore as the first city in the South. Growing up in Baltimore, I couldn't tell you which. When I lived in NC Richmond was the common answer. My friend in Montgomery, Alabama says its Birmingham. All I know is that the good pork barbecue is either in or south of NC, or has emigrated with great effort and attention to detail from those points.]
Crabs yes but skip any of the DC options and make a trip to Baltimore or Annapolis for this to do it right. You will not regret it.
actually i will post an entire list of 10 recs separately
re: Lowbar
Where the South starts is definitely up for debate, but by the time you are in Richmond, you've been there for awhile. Likewise, once you make it to Philly, you have been in the North for a while. So that leaves DC and Baltimore.
I agree,crabs are better in Annapolis or Baltimore. But then again, the best place for crabs may well be Tangier Island or a buddy's back porch after a day on the water.
I would argue that natives to Virginia and DC do have a long tradition with Pork BBQ.
re: cimabue
My rule: if you order a Dr. Pepper and they ask you if Mr. Pibb is ok, you are not in the south.
re: cimabue
DC is DC and has a dearth of good food at a reasonable price, except for the ethnic joints in the suburbs. Wasn't always that way, though. On the whole, I'd rather eat in Baltimore.
As an ex-DC-ite and current San Franciscan, I think that you would really enjoy going to Eastern Market. It is a big room (not as big as the Ferry Building) with various different vendors selling everything from sausage to bacon to hummentashen. It is really fun and a treat! It is sort of like the Ferry Building but less pretentious and more down to earth.
Top Ten Bites in no particular order (this should hit almost all of DC's major food groups):
Galileo - approx. two days a week, the chef here grills meat for sandwiches. (midweek lunch only) Uneven schedule, you have to call. I suggest the sausage with broccoli raabe.
Rita's - West Indian dive. Polori with pickled tamarind sauce. Get the sorrel to drink.
Breadline - Midweek lunch only. Order the bbq (specifically ask for this on a ciabatta) served only on Fridays.
cf folks - midweek lunch only. Crabcake.
Citronelle - eat in the lounge - not formal. Get the mushroom cigars and the begula pasta. Not open for lunch.
Etete - Ethiopian. Fastening food platter (vegetarian selection).
Ercilia's - Salvadoran. Loroco Papusas. Handmade to order. Expect slow service, but these are set apart from others because the loroco flowers are pressed into the dough.
Jaleo - queso de tupi. An unusual alcohol-fermented cheese.
Oyamel - in Virginia. You'll have to walk three long blocks south from the Crystal City Metro. Wild mushroom soup.
Than Son Tofu - Eden Center in Virginia. You'll have to take Metro to East Falls Church and hop into one of the waiting cabs (very short ride). A Vietnamese Shopping Center with over 23 restaurants, bakeries, etc. Get the vegetable cake (they often run out) or the mushroom and lemon pepper tofus or try the sticky rice dishes. Mostly take out with about 4 tables. This is a strip mall with some hidden interior corridors. Worth exploring.
Here are 10 recs that are sure to be ripped apart. Problem is, just about any category of foodstuff you'd get in DC, you can get generally better renditions of the same elsewhere. Exceptions here are Ethiopian and Vietnamese, though coming from SF you aren't exactly isolated from good Vietnamese food. Also, most of our good authentic ethnic food is in the suburbs, where excellent Korean, Indian, Chinese, Vietnamese, Salvadorean, Bolivian, and Peruvian food can be found. What is nice about DC is that we at least have good to very good renditions of a very wide range of things. With that in mind I give you my top 10 in no particular order, with metro info to help you navigate a bit:
1) chili half smoke - Ben's Chili Bowl (U St Cardozo, Green line)
2) whatever tickles your fancy at one of the excellent Ethiopian places in the 9th and U NW general area (NOT adams morgan, georgetown, etc) Dukem and Etete are good options - (U St Cardozo, Green line)
3) Whatever tickles your fancy at Oohs and Aahs (U St Cardozo, Green line)
4) half a chicken, fries, and slaw at El Pollo Rico, Arlington...peruvian rotiserrie chicken is a staple here (for me at least) and this is the best chicken (sides a bit uninspired) (Virginia Square, Orange Line)
5) Crabs in Baltimore. Search this board to find rec's. For the uninitiated, I usually recommend Bo Brooks which, though it is a bit more touristy and expensive than some other good options, still has very good, well-prepared crabs and they are happy to show you how to properly eat them. If you can't go to Baltimore, try the Quartereck in arlington or Maine Ave waterfront (though you will be much more on your own at those places, and they just aren't as good as getting them in an actual crab town...probably my imagination)
6) Goat Tacos, laroco papusa....El Charrito Caminante, arlington (Clarendon Metro, orange line)
7) Galileo grill as suggested in Steve's post, though i don't recall seeing anything scheduled for this week.
8) 5-way chili mac or Frito Pie at hard times cafe (multiple locations). Good wings too. All of my friends from SF love this place and always ask to go when they come visit. I love it too.
9) A trip to Eden Center. (East Falls Church metro, orange line, take a right coming out of the station entrance and walk 3/4 of a mile down sycamore/roosevelt, entrance is on your right just past olympus gym). Wealth of awesome Vietnamese options. I like Viet Royale. Huong Que also good. Don't sleep on the little places either for a nice banh mi, bubble tea, etc etc. The Tofu place is also pretty good. Worth exploring the whole mall as steve notes.
10) I love the Oyster Happy Hour at Old Ebbitt. Truly excellent oysters half price monday to thursday from 3-6pm and 11-1 a.m.
that's my week and i'm sticking to it, unless i forgot something in which case i'll edit the post and nobody will ever notice my error.
Ethiopian is the city's claim to fame -- don't miss that. Eden Center and a Baltimore or Annapolis crab feast also loom large but require a car.
Ben's Chili Bowl is notable more for atmosphere and authenticity than food, but it's as good a spot as any to sample a half-smoke -- which, it can be argued, is the most authentically native foodstuff.
I was glad to see Eastern Market and Hard Times Cafe listed. At the former, try to have breakfast at Market Lunch -- blueberry buckwheat pancakes, homemade-bread french toast, or an egg-and-whatever sandwich. Lunch would also work (some great fried-seafood sandwiches, esp. the crabcake). Hard Times is a suburban phenomenon (but Metro-accessible) and a bit of an out-of-place one, with Texas atmosphere and Cincinnati and Texas food far from their places of origin, but it's an exclusively local chain and, in my opinion, the best bargain around.
I would add to the list a steak dinner in a power spot. Capital Grille is a chain, but a good one, and the location between Capitol Hill and the White House makes political-celebrity sightings quite possible. Great clubby atmosphere, too. On Capitol Hill proper, the Monocle offers a similar vibe in a non-chain establishment with lower prices.
Old Ebbitt is perhaps the quintessential D.C. restaurant in all its clubbiness, and the oyster happy hour is a great deal (though it's not the best season right now, of course). A late-night beer at the Hawk and Dove or the Tune Inn would also provide some nice old D.C. flavor.
re: Bill on Capitol Hill
Two comments:
1) I had to laugh after reading back over this thread and seeing that I poo-pooed the idea of DC pork barbecue but then heartily recommended DC chili.
2) Oysters in summer...true you are more likely to get a spawning oyster in the summer from a random sample for many varieties, but as long as you stick to NE (some say MD, I say MA or further), Pac NW, and canadian sources, you aren't that likely to encounter an issue. The "R month" rule is one born in the south where that holds true for local oysters. Old Ebbitt would not serve oysters that were likely to be spawning at that time.
In the event a spawning oyster is encountered, any reputable place will take it back and give you another. Just look for a noticeably milky appearance. Good shuckers will detect this while shucking and they won't end up on your plate. Which might explain why I've never had one at Old Ebbitt for the thousand+ oysters I've eaten there.
re: Bill on Capitol Hill
What's the scoop now on Market Lunch? I heard a while back they were cutting hours and that maybe they were getting rid of breakfasts? Maybe this was just weekends...
re: Bill on Capitol Hill
Actually, Hard Times is not exclusive to the DC area. It is as far south as Raleigh NC!
Holy crap, I couldn't disagree more with some of these. Ben's!??! It has been around for 50 years, that is the ONLY reason it is anything. It is a greasy junk pit. Do I eat there? HELL YES. But not because it's good... it isn't. It's just open late, and in a neat part of town. It's a McDonald's that happens to be owned by some neighborhood folks and not a giant corporation... nothing more.
And common. Eden Center? Vienna Square? You are gonna send people out on half hour car or train rides to the middle of nowhere... just for some vietnamese food? Be realistic, folks. Would you really drive a half hour away from presidio on your one-week visit - just to eat a sandwich?
DC recs:
- The guy who suggested the Maine Ave waterfront fish market. Absolutely do that. You can eat all kinds of good stuff there, and it's very down-home and kinda neat.
- Citronelle: great food; very expensive. Do it if you have the $ (and yeah, don't sit in the actual dining room unless you are ready to spend $200+ per person).
- Galileo's - DO go there for lunch if you are nearby and can when the grill is open. If not, Restaurant Kolumbia is nearby and does a good and surprisingly cheap bar lunch as well.
- Bistrot Du Coin - most interesting place in Dupont.
- Pizzeria Paradisio: Second-most interesting place in Dupont. Often packed... there's one in G'town too.
Those would be my 5 must-do's. I would also recommend, depending on when you are gonna go down by the white house:
-Old Ebbitt's (very DC; Oyster happy hour from 3-6 and 10-12)
-Rooftop at Hotel Washington (great for night time ice cream above the white house).
re: EricDC
I think if you're from the midwest out here for a week, then Eden Center is a must visit. If you're coming from SF, then it could be skipped due to your choices there.
I would also say that you must have a blue crab feast, but you don't NEED to drive to the bay for it. Sure, it's better ambience and to experience palates, better crab, but if you've not had one, Steamers in Bethesda, or Quarterdeck in Arlington will get you what you want.
The tacos, etc are good at some places mentioned, but you have better in SF, ditto for any falalel/schwarma type item (Truly Mediteranean is all you need to know there).
And OP, you're killing me with the reference to Tommy's.
Outside of those tweaks (imo), most all other recs are worth following.
re: Dennis S
Thanks for the advice.
Regarding Tommy's, I tend to go with what's local but if y'all got some killer margaritas (100% agave, fresh persian lime juice) or even bar with an good tequila selection in town (extra points for Dupont area), let me know.
re: EricDC
I don't understand your disparagement of traveling to Eden Center. Are you saying you have been to Than Son Tofu and didn't like it? Or that you can find the same tofu shop in DC? To say nothing of the sheer variety of other offerings. I doubt the OP will agree with your put down of "just for some vietnamese food." I included some Virginia places in my response because I believe it is easier and faster to get there than some parts of DC.
Anyway, some of my other favorites in Eden Center are the ground pork wrapped in rice paper at Na Trang and the sweet and sour seafood soup at Huong Viet. I do not know of an equivalent ot these dished in DC.
Ultimately, I recommed that the OP do a search by restaurant name on Chowhound - do not trust washingtonpost.com unless the review in question is by Tom Sietsema, the main restaurant critic. Otherwise, you are just grasping at straws.
re: EricDC
"Eden Center? Vienna Square? You are gonna send people out on half hour car or train rides to the middle of nowhere... just for some vietnamese food?"
True story: when I visited Ann Arbor MI last year, I drove all the way to the Lebanese neighborhood in Dearborn just for a single meal.
And it was worth it.
Eden Center is worth the trip from DC, if you're really willing to go out of the way for it. I live in the PG County and I go there whenever I get the chance. Personally, I would have been disappointed if someone withheld info about Dearborn because it was "too far". I think the poster can make up their own mind about whether it's worth the trip.
I would add Masitas de Puerco (pork cooked slowly with bitter Seville oranges) from Lauriol Plaza, rockfish from Thaiphoon, lamb from Afterwords, and Murgh Makhani (a particularly good version of this staple) from Heritage India.
Naturally, you will avoid any place that was recommended without specific ordering advice, as you requested.
re: Lettuce Eat
Well don't let my lack of specific ordering advice steer you away from Ooh's and Aah's. Really, just order whatever there looks best to you...my recommendation would be chicken (wings) and a side of collard greens but I am worried the image that would come to mind of your typical crappy "buffalo wing" might be a turnoff. If you like chicken at all, order it at Oohs and Aahs. If you don't, or are in the mood for soemthing else, order whatever jumps out at you. If you're looking for health food, omit from list.
Thanks to everyone for all your advice/recommendations. I've sorted it all out and hope make the final cuts on the plane tomorrow morning. Jaleo, crabs, oysters, Old Ebbitt's, oohs and aaahs (before SF, I came from the South) and the lure of excellent Ethopian are already making me very happy -- I may have to sneak out of some of my meetings/receptions or relocate the action!
And I'll let you know where I end up.
re: larochelle
India Abbott Wilson who cooks at Oohs and Aahs is from Coastal South Carolina, so you will definitely want to try her shrimp. There are much better places for catfish, though. Sit at one of the stools, don't get lost upstairs.

re: Lowbar
Thanks LB for the great post!
Last week I was able to order up a nice meatball sub and grilled salad. I have to say that I was a little pleasantly surprised by the salad. Opening the box, I saw a few stacks of grilled romaine lettuce and thought, "how lame". But the parmesan and dressing go a long way.
The meatball sub was a little cold/soggy by the time I got home, but that's my fault. The price is great for a quality sandwich, and I just wish I couldve tried more their menu.
Other places I tried from the above recommedations:
-Song Que (East Eden) - ok bubble tea (boba)
-El Puerto Rico - great great pollo de brasa! the fries actually weren't anything special... but mmm that hotsauce!
-Eastern Market - cheap eats diner food
-Ethiopian - Langano seemed on par (or lower) than a few LA places
-Maryland Blue Crabs - Captain Pell's all you can eat was an experience that can't be missed.. piles of shells and bay spice.

Hurst is also expected to announce a new performance series of Camaros (a first for Hurst) at the SEMA Show.
General Motors donated the one-off car to support the fund which helps students pursue a future in the automotive aftermarket industry.
"We are thrilled to be able to support the SEMA Scholarship Fund by contributing this very special Camaro," said Bob Kern, General Motors SEMA Relations Manager. "GM is very committed to growing this industry and we are certainly dedicated to be part of a program that helps enrich the lives of so many young, aspiring automotive scholars."
The Brilliant Black Camaro with silver and red striping is equipped with 20-inch polished forged aluminum wheels, a rear deck spoiler, Eibach suspension, a Magnaflow exhaust system and Hurst Competition Plus short-throw shifter with a red anodized Hard-Drive Billet pistol grip handle. Other touches include metal exterior badges, a Hurst/Camaro dash plaque and logos embroidered floor mats. And to guarantee the car's uniqueness, the Hurst executive team has signed the trunk lid.
"This is hands-down the coolest Hurst Camaro ever…in fact, it's the first one!" said Hurst Performance CEO and 25 year SEMA Scholarship Committee member, Chris Phillips. "At Hurst Performance, we are committed making a difference with our cars and that includes helping young people get started in their careers in this industry. We are honored to join SEMA and GM in donating this car to this very worthy cause."
The car will be auctioned on eBay Motors two weeks before the 2009 SEMA Show in Las Vegas, where it will be on display from Nov. 3rd to 6th.

Inko's Blueberry White Tea is a wonderful addition to the product line. It offers the same great brew of delicate white tea that you'll find in all of the Inko's, plus a very mild splash of blueberry extract. The fruit flavor is really only noticeable on the finish of the flavor -- which works well with the white tea. The resulting beverage offers a well balanced flavor that is quenching and refreshing. In addition, this is the first flavor that we have seen to use the new custom cap -- definitely a nice way to spruce up the bottle. Overall, a great beverage -- and only 60 calories and 14g of carbs per bottle.

From day one the mess that is Obamacare has, in my opinion, been a case of taxation without representation. When a handful of far-left representatives, who don't have to use this program, rush through a giant bill with absolutely no input from anyone representing the whole rest of the country, it is a disgrace. There wasn't a single idea or suggestion from anyone but a couple of very wealthy people who are out of touch with working America. Then it was rushed through while they still had a majority, and they still had to exempt and use bribe-like tactics to pass it. Then they tried to say it wasn't a tax, but the courts said it is. A huge tax. This is not constitutional, in my opinion.

Workplace Stress and Your Health
If you have a cruel boss or rotten co-workers, beware. It may not be just your job that's on the line.
Clearly, a work environment that includes insults, back stabbing and belittling can erode an employee's morale. What's less understood is that such a toxic work atmosphere can also lead to deteriorating health. At WebMD, we talked to the experts to find out what it is about negative work relationships that can cause so much stress, how our bodies react to chronic workplace stress, and what it takes to find relief.

Men's Health Tune-Up Schedule: Medical Tests
Men rarely see Thomas J. Weida, MD, for medical tests without prodding from a wife or girlfriend. When they do show up, Weida jokes that he "can see the drag marks on the carpet." It's amusing, of course. But it can quickly turn serious when a man ignores important symptoms. Weida says he knows of men who got away with ignoring chest pain for a couple of weeks. Eventually, though, they died of heart attacks.

How many times have you watched someone get a promotion when your hard work goes unnoticed, or attempted to offer your insight to management, only to have it fall on deaf ears? Working in an unjust environment can make you sick -- really sick.
A Need to Be Heard
Feeling trapped in a workplace that isn't fair can actually increase your risk for coronary heart disease (CHD), a leading cause of death in the U.S. In a two-part landmark Finnish study conducted between 1985 and 1990, researchers surveyed more than 6,000 male British civil servants -- without presence of CHD -- regarding how fair, or unfair, they perceived their employers. Subjects who reported a high level of justice at work were 30% less likely to develop CHD than workers who consistently experienced injustice at work.
Just how did study participants define "justice" in the workplace? Those who felt their bosses considered their viewpoints, treated them truthfully, and included them in decision-making processes said they worked in "just" workplaces.
The results of the study show what many experts say: Feeling like you haven't been heard ranks as the most stressful aspect of interpersonal work relationships. "It's a helplessness that comes when employees feel like they've expressed themselves and been discounted, or someone hasn't taken the time to listen to them," says psychologist Carol Kauffman, PhD, an assistant professor at Harvard Medical School's department of psychiatry.
Others agree. "The workplace needs to feel meaningful. If you feel like you're not respected, that your opinion isn't meaningful, you're at an increased risk of heart disease," says Bruce Rabin, MD, PhD, a professor of pathology and psychiatry at University of Pittsburgh Medical Center. On the flip side, Rabin tells WebMD, "Feeling a part of the workplace is a meaningful buffer to the health effects of stress.
Reacting to Co-Workers
How workers react to negative interpersonal relationships in the workplace, be it passive-aggressive co-workers or disgruntled bosses, also has a dramatic impact on subsequent stress levels.
"Some people are more prone to stress reactions. They're likely to be people who have difficulty managing on a day-to-day basis. They may not have effective problem-solving skills, or be predisposed to high levels of anxiety and uncertainty," says social worker Len Tuzman, DSW, an expert on stress management. This is particularly true for employees that Tuzman calls "catastrophizers" -- those who blow a situation out of proportion until it becomes a major calamity.
Just how great a toll does workplace stress take on employees' health? While it's impossible to tease out every illness and adverse health effect that began as a reaction to stress, Minnesota-based health management company StayWell compared the costs of stress with 10 other common health risk factors -- among more than 46,000 employees of both private- and public-sector companies. The risk factors included tobacco and alcohol use, overweight, high blood pressure, and high cholesterol. Cumulatively, these 11 modifiable health risk factors were found to comprise 25% of companies' total health care expenditures. The most costly risk factor? Stress.

School Reviews
- June 01, 2012 - We are so happy we chose CMCS! The quality of education is exceptional and it is all done from a Christian perspective. The teachers genuinely care for our children. We came from out of state and had first wondered about how our family would fit in to a new school community; the administration, teachers, and community as a whole have been an incredible blessing to us! - Posted by Parent
- May 21, 2012 - Our family chose to send our children to CMCS because we liked the fact that our children were going to receive the same type of Christian mentoring we provide at home from our peers at school. In addition, we were drawn by their attention to excellence in academics. Our children''s experience has been fabulous! Now as a board member, I get to see some of the inner-workings of the school. I am so impressed by the leadership''s integrity. - Posted by Parent
- May 01, 2012 - I want my children at CMCS because I desire the best education for them. CMCS offers academic excellence as evidenced by high standardized test scores. It also provides a Christian worldview by applying God''s Word in every subject area and challenging students spiritually. CMCS has a wide variety of extra-curricular activities that makes for a well-rounded education. The brand new facility will enhance the educational experience even more with science labs, technology, and more. CMCS has a reputation of excellence within our community and beyond! - Posted by Parent
- May 01, 2012 - One of the main reasons we choose to send our chidren to CMCS, is the kindness of the staff and the quality education they receive. The faculty and staff are truly concerned with the children's ability to excel with their own gifts. - Posted by Parent
- March 16, 2012 - I have never doubted the decision to send our children to Central Minnesota Christian School. The teachers are outstanding and have provide an incredible education to our child from a distinctly Christian perspective. We will be sending our second child next year! We recommend CMCS to everyone who is looking for an education to train up their children in the way of the Lord! - Posted by Parent

Security Basics

You can still use MAC filtering by having your "trusted network" on one side
of the firewall and everything else on the other. Think of a
firewall/router as a device that connects two networks, not just a public
network (the internet) to a private network. Most large scale private
networks use routers to breakup broadcast domains.
As far as an authentication device that only allows a network login based on
a list of allowable MAC addresses, I don't know of one. But it is an
interesting idea. In Linux terms, you could probably build a dedicated
authentication server that runs netfilter/iptables rules to kill packets
that aren't on the "approved" MAC list before they even get out of the
TCP/IP stack. I'm not sure if you can do the same thing on a single Windows
box, but I'm sure you can do it by placing a filtering router between the
authentication server and the rest of the network as suggested above.

Can anyone recommend a device that will do MAC Address Authentication
before allowing a user/computer to connect to the network. This is
different then MAC Address filtering, which allow or disallow access to the
Internet for the the systems that are already on the network.
I am trying to find a cheap device that will help me control non-employees
accessing our trusted network.

This wine is so elegant in the mouth with fresh-picked blackberries, simmering chocolate sauce on the stove, and somewhere someone's cooking bacon…so many layers, so little time."

- About Deakin
27 April 2010
Dr Qismullah's story is particularly interesting given his humble beginnings. He was born in Sigli, in Aceh, Indonesia, the eldest of ten children. He completed his PhD in Adult Education (Training and Development) at Oregon State University, in the United States of America in 1992.
Dr Qismullah has 22 years experience teaching in high school, vocational schools and universities in Aceh. He began teaching English and Arts subjects in a high school in 1974. In 1979 he taught tailoring at a vocational school and from 1975 – 1996 he worked at Syiah Kuala University in Banda Aceh, in both the Language Centre and the Public Relations Division, of which he was the Head. Since 1987, Dr Qismullah has participated in establishing high school curriculum within traditional Islamic boarding schools in Aceh.
This was the first time formal schooling was brought into these schools, allowing students to progress to university. Dr Qismullah then went on to provide literacy and vocational educational programs to these traditional Islamic schools, a program that was supported by the Governor of Aceh at the time.
Between 1997 and 2000, Dr Qismullah joined nine other Acehnese leaders to establish the first modern traditional boarding school in Banda Aceh which served as a model for other traditional boarding schools in Aceh. This school focussed on educating early school leavers and abused and homeless children.
Dr Qismullah has worked extensively in government and non-government organisations.
He was the Director of an organisation established by wealthy Acehnese and Indonesians to provide funds and training to youths in Aceh to establish their own business. He then became Deputy Chair at the Chamber of Commerce of Aceh in Training and Development. His role was to establish a training program for youths to assist them to become business owners.
Every year Dr Qismullah employs young university students to work with him. He provides training and pays their tuition fees and living costs to enable them to complete their degrees at a university, often overseas. He is currently involved in establishing an institution to train disadvantaged youth in a remote area. It began as a two-classroom building, and is now a two storey building consisting of eight classrooms.
The most significant achievement of Dr Qismullah is his post-tsunami leadership.
In December 2004, a massive tsunami struck the Province of Aceh with catastrophic effect. This tsunami flattened 1,156 schools, 14 traditional boarding school campuses, killed 2,650 teachers (including teachers of traditional boarding schools), displaced almost 42,000 pupils, disturbed teaching and learning activities of more than 150,000 pupils, and made more than 3,000 teachers homeless. One thousand teachers were traumatized and unable to function properly in their classrooms. The tsunami also destroyed almost 400 laboratories, 225 small and medium libraries with hundreds of thousands of books, destroyed almost all education records of students in 14 districts, devastated 14 out of 68 learning resources centres of teachers. On the third day following the tsunami, Dr Qismullah took on the coordination of the distribution of financial and other foreign and domestic aid for disaster relief and community reconstruction. He held this post formally for 30 months and has continued informally in the role ever since. His role in the social and educational reconstruction of post-tsunami Aceh has been extraordinary.
Deakin University has played a critical role in the reconstruction of the education sector in Aceh and Dr Qismullah has been a strategic link facilitating a number of the professional exchanges required to effect the rebuilding of the teacher workforce. In addition, he has supported Faculty of Arts and Education researchers conducting field work that has been informing the educational activities and the disaster recovery undertaken in the region.
Through these activities, Dr Qismullah has not only helped his own community, but he has also made a significant contribution to the objects and programs of the University and in particular the Faculty of Arts and Education. The practical and applied teaching and research activities undertaken in the Aceh region have enabled the Faculty to draw from its areas of research strength to benefit a community in need, and through these, extend the corpus of knowledge in international relations, human rights development, disaster recovery, languages in society, globalisation and teacher education.
Dr Qismullah has devoted his adult life to developing the education sector in the Province of Aceh. His objectives very strongly align with the objectives of Deakin University and his work demonstrates how an individual can be a catalyst for positive change in a community.

The description listed does this little piece of Serenity no justice....This cabin is amazing! The property is well kept and clean...it even smells great! Vic is awesome. He is very professional and attentive. We rented it just for a weekend getaway with the family but I would recommend this property to anyone for any occasion. We went hiking on the local trails, and visited the state park. My favorite part of this trip was laying back in the Jacuzzi and looking up to the night skies filled with stars...it was so beautiful words couldn't even describe the feeling. We loved it so much that we were already discussing making plans to come up around Christmas.
Beautiful cabin made for a relaxing Labor Day!
My family and I had a wonderful vacation over Labor Day weekend at the cabin. The river front cabin provided all the amenities of home with an amazing porch that overlooked the bike path and river. A perfect place to relax and listen to the sounds of the river! The owners were friendly and very easy to work with. We recommend this property and look forward to spending vacation retreats there in the future. Thanks!!
Bach Party
Great for a bachelor party. There was some construction being done on the house that the renter promised would be done before we moved in, but that really wasn't intrusive and didn't diminish the weekend at all (and the renter is a great guy generally so I have no doubt it was an honest mistake). Place is perfect for a dudes weekend. Highly recommend it - book it and don't look back.

Fake YSL princess skirts can at least help in this situation as it offers a wide range of colors and fabrics to allow everyone to be able to buy the gift that they really want as opposed to settling for something they don't truly want.

The flexibility of the fake YSL princess skirt gives even more reason as to why they should be considered one of the most desirable products around.
All this means that anyone who wishes to have the look and style of the original but wants a lower expenditure will be completely satisfied by a fake YSL princess skirt and of the benefits it entails. The fake YSL princess skirt range is able to not only provides the stylish look of the original but manages to do so at a price that is considerably lower than the original, which has ensured the buyer of fake YSL princess skirt is extremely satisfied with their purchase. Another reason for their happiness is the way that the fake YSL princess skirt manages to create that extra look of class in the overall look of a person meaning that the purchase of a fake YSL princess skirt can make anyone's ensemble be more than the sum of its parts.

Nike Air Max JR – Black – Varsity Red | Available
April 8th, 2011 by Aaron Hope | No comments
The jury just heard closing arguments on Barry Bonds' trial Thursday but there's no arguing that the slugger from the last generation who will remain most revered is Ken Griffey Jr. Just take a look at the success of Junior's signature sneaker line from Nike, a series that much like The Kid's career, was at a meteoric rise in the mid/late '90s and is now being appreciated even more for the context in which it was crafted. The Nike Air Max JR brings together the upper shape of his most popular model, the Air Max Griffey 1 with lightweight Torch material and a 360-degree Max Air cushion, this colorway something of a 'Cincinnati Reds away' look with its Varsity Red accents on a black base.

Shelley Neill was born in the culturally rich rough and tumble working-class Ironbound neighborhood of Newark, New Jersey in the early 1950's, and abandoned by her Irish Catholic mother and Hungarian father at birth. She was adopted, as an infant, into a Jewish family that had grown up and lived in Newark.
Her most vivid childhood memories were of Newark in the 1950's - cobblestone streets, people speaking in English, Yiddish, and Italian, horse-drawn vegetable carts, streets with names that sounded strange †Peshein Avenue and Demerest Street †where her grandparents lived - egg kindlers, fresh-killed chickens, Silverman's Bakery, chocolate egg creams, family circle meetings, chain-link fenced school playgrounds....

How To Build A Homeschool Based Website Business
Instead of a home-based website business, you can create a homeschool based website business – just like we did! Your website can be about anything you want, anything that you are passionate about, and it doesn't even have to be about homeschooling. I really believe a home based website business is the best "work at home" opportunity out there. I've tried many other 'work at home' jobs and businesses and I have had the most fun and success with a website.
A homeschool based website business can be an excellent learning opportunity for your homeschoolers as well. Furthermore, the income generated from a home based website business can help purchase curriculum and extras for your homeschool, or simply can be used to augment your family's current income.
The start-up costs of building your own homeschool based website business are very small. Anywhere from $10-$30 a month will get you up and running – and even making money.
What's really neat about building a home based website business is that it can require virtually no technical skills whatsoever. Using a simple website builder, you can not only teach yourself the ins and outs of building a website and participating in eCommerce, but you can teach your children too.
Building a homeschool based website business does require some time and effort. However, what I have experienced is that you can take 'breaks' from building your website if you need to. Yet, when you go back to your website business, you didn't lose anything during your 'break'. Instead, what I've noticed when taking a day or two off from building my website is that my website business continued to grow while I was away!
The best part about creating a home based website business is that you can earn a passive income, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. This guide is meant to show you just how to do that!
How Much Time Does It Take?
Really, you can spend as much, or as little, time on your homeschool based website business as you want. You will find, however, that your earnings are generally equal to the amount of time you put in.
What I recommend is that a work-at-homeschool mom and family spend about 10 hours a week on building their homeschool based website business. This will show steady consistent growth that not only you, but the internet search engines, will love. If you want to build a large website that can earn a great deal of money very quickly you will, of course, need to spend quite a bit more time. I don't recommend building a large website very quickly – especially if you're a newbie. You don't want to burn yourself out before you see the fruits of your labor.
How To Create Your Website
Your homeschool based website business needs content first. Content is the information that you want to share with the web world. It can be articles, how-to information, or even your own general musings. Creating content is easier than you think. On the internet, it is recommended that your keep your web pages to 700 words or less – and write at the level of a 6th-7th grader. You can surely do that! Some people even hire other people to write their website content for them, but it is best if you write it yourself.
Technically, you will need to select a domain name for your website and build your website. Our family uses Site Build It (SBI). SBI is an all-in-one website builder. SBI will help you choose and register a good domain name for your website. More than that, SBI will walk you through the website planning, design and building process step by step. SBI comes with a wonderful Action Guide that is so easy to follow that you and your homeschoolers will have no problem building your own homeschool based website business. It also contains an easy to use website builder.
A subscription to Site Build It includes the following helpful services:
Domain Name Registration – You choose the domain name and SBI will registers the name for you and pays the registration fee.
Web Hosting – SBI comes with complete web hosting included in it's annual fee.
Graphic Tools – SBI comes with graphics tools, so you take basic webpage templates and personalize them with your own graphics and colors.
How To Build Traffic To Your Website
Most definitely, you cannot have a successful homeschool based website business without getting trafficto your website. This is an important part of the website building process.
To get traffic to your website, you need to do the following things:
1. Create optimized webpages surrounding a specific keyword such as "Homeschool Curriculum" or "Homeschool Science Projects".
2. Submit your webpages to major and minor search engines and directories. Having your website ranked on Google, MSN, Ask.com and other will bring a great amount of traffic to your website.
3. Create backlinks to your website from other webpages and websites. These backlinks are what help your pages to get ranked highly in the search engines. You can post your website in various forums and message boards to help create backlinks. You can even pay small fees to have other websites feature your website.
Once again we use Site Build It because it does #1 and #2 for us. SBI helps you determine the best keywords for each webpage and then SBI helps you to optimize each page for that keyword. SBI also submits your webpages to the major search engines so you don't have to.

This is what you've been waiting for. How do you make money with a homeschool based website business? By far, my preference for making money with a website is through pay-per-click advertising and affiliate programs. These are ways to make passive money from your website without having to sell a product or fill an order.
Pay-per-click advertising is where you have a link on your website, and you make money when someone clicks on that link. It's that simple. The clicks can pay you from .10 to $10 each and sometimes even more. The best part about this is that the click can happen while your cooking dinner or driving your children to an activity – or even sleeping. Once it is set up – you don't have to be present to earn money. You can go do something else!
Second, affiliate programs are where you advertise another person's product or service on your website, and when someone visiting your website clicks over to your advertiser and buys – you receive a commission. There are HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS of products and services on the internet that you can become an affiliate for. This is another passive way of generating income that once set up, earns you money while you sleep.
Finally, you can create a website to sell your own product. It's just another way to make money from your own website.
Lastly, you guessed it, Site Build It helps you monetise your website too. From information on how to participate in pay-per-click advertising to affiliate program references to how to market your own product, SBI contains it.
And Finally…
You have nothing to lose from starting your own website. Not even a lot of money. It's not hard and I couldn't imagine having a business any other way. Nothing else gives me the freedom to stop and start as I choose, the freedom to do want I want, and the earning potential that a homeschool based website business does.
