text: What hurt me the most is that you decided to walk out or "do your own thing" when I went through one of the worse times of my life. You said you wanted me to get better but you weren't even there for me. You among the very few people who meant SO MUCH to me all left like it was an okay thing to do. But that's alright, cause I'm not hurting anymore and I owe you nothing or gratitude for the support, or lack there of.

By The Associated Press
(AP) - "They had one message for the president, which is they need certainty. Please get this deal done as soon as possible. They very much want consumers out there knowing that they're going to have money in their pockets to spend. That's why it's so important to pass the extension of the tax cuts for 98 percent of consumers, 97 percent of all small businesses." _ Small Business Administration head Karen Mills on what business owners told President Obama Tuesday.
"We are significantly troubled by many of the answers that we got and some that we didn't get concerning evidence that was leading up to the attack on the consulate." _ Sen. John McCain after he and Sens. Lindsey Graham and Kelly Ayotte interviewed U.N. Ambassador Susan Rice about the deadly Sept. 11 raid in Libya as the three senators weighed her possible nomination to be secretary of state.
"Blessed with an air of power that masks an unmistakable cute, cuddly side, Kim made this newspaper's editorial board swoon with his impeccable fashion sense, chic short hairstyle, and, of course, that famous smile," _ The People's Daily in China quotes from a spoof in The Onion naming North Korean dictator Kim Jong Un as the "Sexiest Man Alive" without realizing the article was satire.

We all know there are a lot of mediocre and bad teams in the NFL this year. But those teams aren't all terrible - well, expect for the Browns and Lions. Some bad teams still have some guys playing extremely well - like Stephen Jackson of the Rams, who is on pace for nearly 1600 yards rushing this season despite the fact that his team loses by 40 points every week. He might rush for 3000 yards this season if he was on a good team.
Anyway, here are the top 10 players on mediocre to bad teams.
10. Rickey Williams and Ronnie Brown tandem (Dolphins)
9. Aqib Talib (Bucs)
8. Julius Peppers (Panthers)
7. Jairus Byrd (Bills)
6. Patrick Willis (49ers)
5. Stephen Jackson (Rams)
4. Vernon Davis (49ers)
3. Maurice Jones-Drew (Jags)

Via: Apple Support Forum | News Archive | Tags: Apple, tablet, slate, iPad 2, buggy
I do not own an iPad but these problems do make me weary of investing in one. Sounds like Apple has some work to do with fixing bugs with iOS 4.3 but the screen bleeding sounds like bad hardware probably caused by them having to switch manufacturers due to the disaster in Japan.
I have not invested in a single piece of Apple equipment ever in my life. When I was young we had an Apple IIe my mother got for work, and we had a Commodore which were the two computers in our house. I have know a few people who used Apple gear as well as some professional designers and artist's who swear by them. The most notable being my little brother who is a musician as well as an assistant, youth, and musical minister at a pretty large church. I would say maybe 10 people period in my life total have I known that are like this, and or use Apple anything. That is not current that is throughout my now 40 years of life. One thing especially currently is much like the Facebook Myspace thing from what I see, Apple is trendy, but the same thing holds true I think trends come and go. When they decide to go you always know about it yesterday if you get my drift. There is also another component to much of this and his name is Steve Jobs who could exit the picture entirely for healthy reasons/issues tomorrow.
this kinda of stuff is going to happen. What really gets under my skin is if bugs happen on an apple product, its ok because apple made it. Now if stuff like this happens on a android or any other tablet, everyone screams that its crap and android sucks and is laggy. Some fan boys take stuff to far. Hopefully these issues get fixed, but as for me i think i want either an android tab or the asus netbook/android tab coming out soon.
And thus the ipad3 was born, with the same outstanding hardware plus improved iLight ® backlighting, for only $699 without 3g or wifi.
^Rofl! But such a true statement.
lol ya, create the problems knowing they still want the product, come out with one that should of been the one before and profit!
Early adopters should be prepared for issues like this. If they think Apple is going to miss a release to fix issues they're clearly not too bright. All companies rush things to out the market to grab as much money as possible, they'll fix it later.
I agree, they aren't in a rush to fix anything. They want to get the ipad2 into other countries first. With anything being produced in that quantity though you will have a few problems. My coworkers just got a white one, she hasn't had any problems but she just got it.
I Am going on my 3rd ipad2, the first I bought on launch day had backlight bleeding I brought it back for a full replacement and they gave me a "used" one with scratches, dead pixels, and even worse backlight bleeding than the first, so I returned right away only to have an employee snap & say "you can't keep bringing this back, u can't come in here all the time for this, were not gonna keep replacing it, u can't do this, ect" and that I had 1 more chance to exchange it and if I got another bad one too bad he said that's it no more exchanges, so I called apple care and they told me to just fully return the unit get my $ back and just buy a new one, so I did return it, & call the manager of the apple store & explained the situation & how I was treated, he said he would hold one from his next shipment for me and also pay for my parking at the lot. He was very nice and took care of the situation. Now if this one has any issues I'm waiting a few months to return it, because u have a year to exchange any apple products. By then the issue should be resolved, and that's what all of you should do..wait hopefully all goes well
Why should I wait when I can get a functional slate from someone else Dcoggins? The Blackberry unit is active now, the Samsung units looks sweet as well, and I heard that Google will have Honeycomb debugged very shortly. I get the early adopter thing. I have in fact been one on several occasions, but that generally was when I was younger. With the rate technology moves today a month can make all the differences in the world. If I was you and I got another one with issues I would return it and just use your original iPad that I am sure you have, and start looking elsewhere. Some real beauties are dropping now and more in the very near future( including from what I hear the iPad3 in the fall with new components and upgraded screen, more outlets and native iOS5.

text: Brooklyn's Finest If the men of America have been waiting for Andy Roddick to blow it with his smoking-hot wife, Brooklyn Decker, a golden opportunity may have come and gone a few months ago. It happened while the couple were watching Bridesmaids—her sixth time, his first—and Roddick made the mistake of saying aloud what he thought of Kristen Wiig's character: "That chick is crazy." Decker swiftly corrected him, both in the hotel room and on Twitter. "I feel like her character is my inner soul," she explains now. "The ways she acts are my inner thoughts, but I just can't express them because they're too nerdy. So if he was calling her crazy, I guess that makes me slightly crazy."

While cheerleaders used to stand on the sidelines shaking
their pompoms (or cartwheeling through the crowd during pep rallys), in the
last decade or two, cheerleading has become increasingly competitive and
dangerous. The tricks these girls and guys throw are complex and jaw-dropping.
And it's now wonder that serious injuries are mounting—though doctors are quick
to note that the total injuries caused by cheerleading are miniscule when
compared to sports like hockey and football.
Still, the American Academy of Pediatrics says cheerleading accounts for
nearly two thirds of all catastrophic injuries to female high school athletes.
So what can we do to fix that stat? Make cheerleading a
legit sport, the AAP argues. Why? Well, sports (as opposed to clubs) are
subjected to strict safety and training regulations. Coaches and trainers have
to be qualified, and practice spaces are typically far better maintained. As a
sport, cheerleading could require all athletes to undergo a pre-season
physical. Their strength and conditioning training would be supervised by a
professional, and they would be spotted by people who are well-trained and thus
capable of preventing serious injury should a stunt go wrong. The potential for
concussions would be evaluated, much as it currently is for soccer and lacrosse.
Want to support the
cause? Sign the petition here,
have your squad make a presentation to your school's athletic director and
board of education, and write letters to your congressman.
What do YOU think, babes? Should cheerleading be considered a

California Dreamin'
When we interview potential new employees at Text100, one of the first things we tell them is that we value work-life balance. I've seen so many agency people work 13-15 hour days consistently, operate at the mercy of their company and clients, and ultimately, seek in-house positions after burning out on this side.
Of course anyone in this industry is going to put in their time and endure a heavy amount of stress (remember that time we were named the 5th most stressful job behind the military, firefighters and pilots?). But what continues to impress me is Text100's commitment to evening out that industry stress with cultural, and personal, wins.
Beyond the stand-out benefits package that includes five weeks of vacation and two "duvet days", Text recently gave me the sign-off to spend a year working from home in San Diego while my boyfriend finishes up school.
There are so many amazing things about having the opportunity to spend the year in Southern California, but I think the view from my home-desk puts an exclamation point on it all:
Oh, and did I mention I'm three blocks from the beach?
Here's to a year of SoCal sunshine!
Texties work the Step and Repeat
A few of us from the office attended the Sabre Awards on Tuesday night, where we were honored as the Best Midsize Agency to Work for (go us). Apparently that night I promised to do a Tumblr write up on the event, but with the open bar I soon forgot I made that commitment. So, while it's a few days late, take a moment to admire our photogenic (and slightly tipsy) group, rocking the step and repeat.
99 Problems But A Pitch Aint One
The latest and greatest of the #WhatShouldWeCallMe meme, well, at least if you work in PR that is…
How to date a PR professional
An appropriate disclaimer for future boyfriends and girlfriends, husbands and wives of PR professionals. For our better halves that have already walked into a PR relationship unknowingly, well, we're sorry.
53 signs you work in public relations
Colby, in our office, passed around this great list earlier today. If you work in PR, this will definitely hit home….
PR Daily published a story this year from PR professional Lauren Fernandez on the 11 signs that someone works in public relations. (The story originally appeared on Fernandez's blog.) The article unleashed a flood of comments that we compiled into a second story ("42 more signs you work in PR"). Here, we combined both stories: The first 11 signs are from Fernandez, and the other 42 come from our readers.

[IT IS RUMORED THAT] in May, IDW are to publish a Doctor Who/Star Trek: The Next Generation crossover series. Featuring The Doctor, Rory, Amy, Captain Picard, Worf, Data, Geordie LaForge, Deanna Troy, Will Riker and the rest. And that this art, featuring the Doctor, Rory and Amy on the bridge of the Enterprise is a cover that will be used in the series.
The fact that this would be specifically the 11th Doctor meeting specifically the TNG cast has me very interested.

Colorado Rockies left-handed pitcher Brett Anderson made his Rockies debut Tuesday night and pitched very well. The southpaw pitched six innings, allowing four runs in which three were earned. He gave up a double to Jarrod Saltalamacchia in the second inning to plate Garrett Jones to give the Marlins the early 1-0 lead.
Adeiny Hechavarria followed up with a sacrifice fly to right field to score Saltalamacchia to give them a two run lead. Marcell Ozuna would try to tag up from first to second but would be thrown out to end the inning. Colorado got on the board in the fourth inning as shortstop Troy Tulowitzki collected his first hit of the season which would be a double to the right-center game to score Carlos Gonzalez. After a Justin Morneau infield bloop single, Wilin Rosario would hit a sacrifice fly to right to score Tulo to tie the game up at two.
Besides giving up those two runs in the fourth inning, Nathan Eovaldi was solid for the Marlins. The right-hander threw six innings, giving up six hits, two earned runs while striking out six. In the bottom of the sixth, Giancarlo Stanton would ground into a fielder's choice which would score pinch-hitter Reed Johnson who led off the inning with a double. Casey McGehee would follow that up with a single up the middle to score Stanton to put them up 4-2.
Colorado would appear to have things cooking in the top of the eighth as Michael Cuddyer doubled down the left-field line to begin the inning. Carlos Gonzalez would follow-up with a double of his own, scoring Cuddyer to bring the lead to within one. Colorado would fail to plate CarGo and they would take the loss by the final of 4-3.
The Colorado Rockies (0-2) return back to action tomorrow night against the Marlins. The probable pitching match-up features Colorado's Jordan Lyles vs. Miami's Henderson Alvarez. First-pitch is scheduled for 7:10 PM ET, 5:10 PM MT.

Greetings NFL fans! The end of the regular season is approaching, and if the Lions don't start turning their record around at least contending for a playoff spot, my house is going to be a nightmare for everyone else for the next six months. Week 13 feature one NFC North division game in the Vikings and Packers, another NFC match up in the Seahawks and Bears, and an AFC-NFC match up between the Colts and the Lions. Can the Packers bounce back after an embarrassing lose to the Giants? Will the Seahawks pull off the upset against the Bears? Will it be Matthew Stafford and the Lions who come out as the victors of the battle of the former number one picks?
Here are my week 13 predictions:
It's been a rough season for the Lions to say the least as they continue to lose close games that they are not only capable of winning, but should be winning. This week the Lions will try to slow down the up and coming Colts led by the sensational rookie quarterback, Andrew Luck. Luck might have led what was a 2-14 team last year to seven wins in just 11 games, but he's going up against the NFC this week where wins are hard to come by. Don't forget it's a road game too and Luck has thrown 10 of his 13 interceptions on the road this season. I don't think this game will be a blow out, but I wouldn't be surprised if the Lions won this game by two or three scores. However, this is the same team that keeps every game close regardless of who they are playing and for that reason alone this is Shack's Game Of The Week.
Prediction: Lions win 27-17
Minnesota Vikings at Green Bay Packers
The Vikings are too one dimensional to be a week in and week winner. If Adrian Peterson doesn't have a break out performance every game, then the Vikings have a difficult time scoring points. Given the Packers injury situation I'd say the Vikings have a decent shot of winning this game, however the Packers are coming off a whooping on national TV against the Giants last Sunday night. I doubt Rodgers let's that happen again. In fact, I foresee the Packers playing with a bit of a chip on their shoulder and putting the game away early.
Prediction: Packers win 30-10
Seattle Seahawks at Chicago Bears
I think we all know the outcome of this game. The Bears are one of the better home teams in the NFL and the Seahawks are by far one of the worst road teams in the NFL. The Seahawks are 6-5 with their only road win against the Carolina Panthers, who are one of the worst teams this seasons. Jay Cutler is healthy and the Bears' defense will thrive in front of the their home crowd.
Prediction: Bears win 24-10
Recap: I have all but the Vikings winning this week in the NFC North as the Bears, Lions, and Packers enjoy home field advantage. Don't forget to leave a comment and share your NFC North Predictions! I'll do my best to respond to any questions or comments you might have.
Last week's record: 1-2
Record so far this season: 23-16

Eclipse Asset Auction One Month Away?
The long-awaited auction of the assets of bankrupt Eclipse Aviation could occur on June 24, according to Mike Press, owner of Eclipse 500 S/N 004 and president and CEO of Single Pilot Jet Management. Press and Eclipse depositor Mason Holland have formed a company, now named Eclipse Aerospace, to bid on the Eclipse assets. If the company's bid is successful, Eclipse Aerospace will focus on restarting Eclipse 500 maintenance and upgrade services, including working with suppliers to get parts flowing, then "see what we need to do to get the production line going," Press said. Meanwhile, Press explained in a communiqué to Eclipse operators that the Eclipse service network's Chicago maintenance facility has received FAA approval to install flight-into-known-icing (FIKI) upgrades on Eclipse 500s, using the Eclipse Aviation FIKI service bulletin procedures. The Chicago facility has access to all the parts needed for the FIKI mod, according to Press. Eclipse Aerospace is offering Eclipse 500 owners discounts on parts and priority service in exchange for a refundable $100,000 deposit by a May 31 deadline. The deposits will "be used to order parts, as well as provide working capital for the modification effort," according to the communiqué.

Our expert Concierge Team all have first hand knowledge of our Retreats. Joe Benson visited Natural Retreats Adare Manor and here are his top five recommendations.
- Adare Manor Golf Course: The championship par-69 golf course covers 230 acres and was designed by Robert Trent Jones Senior. Each hole sports four tee positions making it good for pros to casual golfers. Try to beat Lee Westwood's 2008 record setting score of 64, it's quite the challenge!
- The Elemis Treatment Rooms: Six Elemis trained therapists offer the full spectrum of body treatments; facials, massages and wraps. Hydrotherapy baths are popular with golfers returning from the course and come highly recommended.
- The Oakroom Restaurant: A breath-taking space overlooking the river Maigue and its accompanying colonnade is considered the most enchanting dinner setting in the country as it is illuminated only by candlelight. Dishes and flavours change with the seasons, as the chefs endeavour always to source and cook local produce.
- Fishing: The River Maigue has a good stock of Wild Brown Trout. The average weight of Trout is 1lb and some up to 2 and 3 lbs. There are also two private Brown Trout lakes on the property, fish weighing up to 5lbs have been caught on both lakes. Private or group angling lessons available, all necessary fishing licenses and permits arranged, tackle hire, wet gear and boots.
- Hawk Walks: This activity is sufficient to get a basic insight into falconry and to gain the exciting experience of handling and flying a trained hawk. Starts with a brief history of Falconry before being introduced to the beautiful birds and give you the opportunity to get some hands on experience – flying your own hawk in the woodlands and grounds of the Manor Estate.

The Hidden Woundby Wendell Berry
Synopses & Reviews
With the expected grace of Wendell Berry comes The Hidden Wound, an essay about racism and the damage it has done to the identity of our country. Through Berrys personal experience, he explains how remaining passive in the face of the struggle of racism further corrodes Americas potential. In a quiet and observant manner, Berry opens up about how his attempt to discuss racism is rooted in the hope that someday the historical wound will begin to heal.
This book-length essay is a rigorously honest, deeply felt exploration of the "hidden wound" of racism and its damaging effect on American whites. Available for the first time in paperback.

Now that the call for papers for droidcon Berlin 2013 is in the wild and the submissions have started to wash in – a lot of really interesting stuff!– we'd like to point to what has happened since the last Berlin droidcon and to build up some awareness for what is ahead.
Here you go: The range of mobile devices is going to become ever broader. Last May, we saw cameras, cash registers and car stereos at droidcon, but we believe that this is just the start. What we are going to see further on is a far-reaching specialization, possibly even individualization of devices. And probably some momentum might come out of the droidcon community. To cut it short: After last year's ADK Open Call for Google Developer Day droidcon has teamed up with VIA, the manufacturer of the Android PC board. Together, we invite you to prototype your favourite Android device. The best ideas will receive a board and support to realize a prototype. For updates on dates and rules, please join the APC Open Call Community. Even more questions? Ask +Friedger Müffke (gplus.to/friedger)
Speaking about what was showcased last time in Berlin: Among the devices on display was the Takwak outdoor smartphone. Now it is available; let's see which experiences we will hear about in April in Berlin, when the winter is over and the first rough conditions lie behind the users. Also new back then and in use right now: Sony's floating touch technology enabling users of the Xperia Sola to operate the screen without actually touching it. Until now, there hasn't been too much buzz about it – as far as we know. But we're keen to exchange views. Also among the things we like to keep our eyes on is Certgate's MAPL (Mobile Application Protection Layer) technology for Android announced last May in Berlin. We're looking forward to learn about what fortified apps has been created.
To close, a brief look back at droidcon gatherings worldwide in the last weeks:
- On 25/26 October Thibaut and his team held droidcon UK in London with 1100 participants and 60+ presentations. 15 new apps and 1 new phone were presented, and the gaming console guys of Ouya introduced their first European employee.
- droidcon Eastern Europe in Bucharest and droidcon India in Bangalore took place at the same time, on 2/3 November. Dan, who organized Bucharest for the second time, tells us about 250 participants from 12 countries and 23 presentations – among them nine new apps, all from the region!
- Kiran and his team welcomed 330 participants at droidcon India in Bangalore, with 38 sessions. Compared to the first Bangalore event in 2011, they saw an increased focus on web-native discussions and UX/UI challenges.
- On 22/23 November at droidcon NL in Amsterdam, Jorik's team had 500 participants, 35 speakers, and a big Android barbecue. A new Facebook SDK was introduced and attendees enjoyed the famous live demo of an Android-powered Märklin model railroad train.
- The most recent event was droidcon Spain in Murcia on 5/6 December. Rafael, who was in the driver's seat at this youngest member of the droidcon family, happily tells us about 350 attendees, 24 speakers and a very positive echo of audience and media.

Cut the burlap to size. The piece should be 1 inch wider than your finished bag and two times as long. For example, if you want your finished sack to measure 12 inches wide by 24 inches high, cut your burlap 13 inches wide and 49 inches long.
How to Make a Burlap Sack
Burlap sacks are simple to make, and they lend a touch of country charm to any event. Make a large sack for holding things in your home or make small sacks to hold party favors. Sacks can hold potted plants outdoors or have a strap added to make into a purse or tote bag. Burlap sacks used to be common in the early 1950s because they held grocery items. Today, burlap can be purchased off the roll at most fabric or craft stores.
Fold the burlap in half across the short direction so it is roughly the size of the finished bag. The burlap should have the right sides facing each other.
Pin the two sides together along the 24-inch side. Sew along the side with your sewing machine, using a 1/4-inch seam. Remove the pins as you come to them so you don't break your needle.
Fold down the top of the bag 1/2 inch. Pin it in place. Sew the top down 1/4 inch from the top of the fold. Sew around the entire top of the sack.
Turn the sack right side out before using.

I give the child baked cinnamon apples, and she acts like I'm attempting to poison her. She tries super spicy salsa and would most likely eat it with a spoon if I'd let her.
Maybe she is my daughter after all.
If I'm being honest, in my head I've always pictured having two little girls. I'm not entirely sure why. But with news of this pregnancy, came visions of a little boy. Of Kylie and a little brother. Jason wanted a son so fiercely. And I began to wonder what it would be like to have one of each. Friends asked which I wanted, to which I honestly replied, "either."
When our ultrasound technician said "girl" my heart swelled. Jason had tears in his eyes, not of disappointment but of joy at the thought of another daughter. We saw her brain and heart and kidneys and hands. She's real. And she's ours.
I'm still digesting the fact that the visions of two little girls in my head will actually be a reality. I feel like my heart isn't dividing, but growing.
A girl. Another sweet baby girl.
These days Kylie is really into dipping. She picks up random food and says, "dip it." Yesterday she dipped her grilled chicken in apple sauce, no biggie. But today….
She was eating butternut squash french fries, and I was snacking on some guac.
K: Dip it. Me: No baby, I don't think squash french fries taste very good with guacamole. K: Dip it. Me: Um… ok suit yourself. K: Mmmmm. Mmmmm.
Now that the heat has claimed everything in my garden except some peppers, parsley, mint, and basil, it has been raining nearly every day for the last two weeks. Ugh. If we hadn't gone basically two months without it, my garden might not have fried. Sad.
At least there's fall planting season here. I guess it's about time to start planning. Soil needs to be prepared. Seeds need to be sown pretty soon.

Melograno, Philadelphia
I need to have good Italian when visiting Philly in June. I keep reading about Melograno and it's not too far from King Tut. Is there any way to find out a sampling of their menu? How do people dress to go there - is casual okay? Do they take reservations?
The food is good, it is located at 22nd and Spruce, no reservations, very small/outdoor seating. You can put your name on the list and walk a block and have a drink at Friday, Saturday, Sunday. Casual
It is also, BYOB. We like La Fontana della Citta - 1701 Spruce Street. 215-790-2533, they take reservations. www.lafontanadellacitta.com
re: BRI328
Thanks, I think I would prefer a place that takes reservations. I've been doing more research and came up with Ernesto's also on Spruce. Is La Fontana better?
re: LMRose
Ernesto's food is nothing special, except for his mother's zuppa inglese (a.k.a. Italian rum cake), which is superb. I do like La Fontana's food better.
re: BRI328
I used to love La Fontana but just had a very disappointing experience. They made us wait a long time -- even with a reservation; service was rude and food had delclined. Melograno's always wonderful -- both food and service -- and worth the wait. Also recently loved Branzino!
re: efeats
Finally had the chance to try La Fontana last night. It was reasonably good, I thought, but IMHO definitely inferior to Melograno and Bronzino...I'd say I even like Roberto's, Bistro La Baia, and Casta Diva better in the (fairly) immediate neighborhood when it comes to Italian BYOBs. The menu at La Fontana is nothing especially unique or interesting, more your (Southern) Italian classics, fairly reasonably prepared for Center City, but not as unique as Melograno nor as expertly done as Bronzino. I will say the seafood risotto I had was pretty good. It's just...nothing I'd really go out of my way for. Bread was pretty "meh" as well...
Melograno takes resevations during the week and if you are going during the week I would go to Melograno's over the other two listed. I would call and ask, but I think it's Tuesday thru Thursday (maybe Mondays too if they're open). Casual is okay, menu-wise you may be able to see a sampling on menupages.com
re: Tonyjlive
Thanks, unfortunately it will be a Saturday and it would be better if we had reservations. I checked menupages.com and I'll have to come back next time during the week, to Melograno. Is there something else in that area?
re: sylviag
I second Branzino
alot of people like illuminaire, though i think they are hit or way miss. but to each their own. i am surprised people aren't liking ernesto's. my family is italian-american and many off the boat italians (in the restaurant and food business) love ernesto's. i have never been, so can't be helpful. :) under no circumstances go to bistro la baia.
re: mazza3
What's wrong with Bistro La Baia? It's certainly got a different atmosphere than the other places you mentioned, and isn't nearly as upscale, but I've always enjoyed the food there. It's comfort food - yummy, but nothing fancy.
re: nns
i don't like the way they prepare their food and while i like being crammed in tight with people, i don't think that it would be a pleasant visit after a museum. maybe i'm just nit-picking and broadcasting my own preferences too much, but i real do think their food stinks too. :) and i tend to prefer cheap and nasty, not quite to the hollyeats.com extreme, but fancy places give me the woolies.
Melograno just rec'd a great blurb in the Inq. restaurant review- that is likely to hammer it more than it already is with crowds. I've eaten there and my thoughts are that it's good, not great, the wait can be long (not worth a wait)- parking is a royal pain in this area of Philly in particular--
This comment is out of date for this thread, but I just ate at Melograno and had to share my experience. Very disappointing! I was so sad because Melograno used to be one of our favorite easy dinners in the Rittenhouse area. It look like they haven't changed their menu in a year, and while the old dishes were perfectly satisfactory once, most of them aren't anything I needed to eat again. I had a very disappointing linguine with clams as well--there was hardly any broth (it was not terribly flavorful in any event) and the entire dish was dotted with tiny burned potato bits. When I ate a large piece of potato, I realized they had been burned because they were almost turned. The atmosphere at Melograno is still nice, and the waitstaff are attentive and friendly. I just wish the food were more inspired. It's never a good thing when the tastiest part of the meal is the bread and olive oil!
re: provnphilly
man... just got back from melograno... i wish i hadn't been one of those people who runs there after it gets a good laban review, but alas, i am one of those people in this case! wish i'd been here earlier! we stopped by on a whim - we'd just gotten out of a flamenco show a couple blocks away and were starved. i called, and sure enough they had one table open right then, and five minutes later there we were. i had three things all of which i would absolutely recommend: mussels, beet salad (who doesn't have a beet salad nowadays!?) with goat cheese, pears soaked in something cinnamony or another and walnuts, and a spaghetti with GARLIC and clams in a white wine sauce with chopped tomatoes. everything was perfect and hit the spot in a big way. those are possibly the best mussels i've ever had. (the spaghetti's sauce was very similar to the mussel sauce or perhaps the same) there were a million other things on the menu that looked equally good and i'll be back soon to try them. very very happy with my meal. between that, konak yesterday and kanella friday, i had a pretty damn happy food weekend. (was celebrating my birthday a little early, ha! now i don't know if i can top the meal for the actual b-day) ;)
re: rabidog
I would like to add another highly favorable experience. Ate at Melograno this last Sat night and had delicious meal. Starters included the pan fried chicken liver and artichoke arugala salad, main dishes were a suberb black cod dish and muchroom pasta dish. no room for desert though.
great ambience and good service.
re: Bigley9
I just had a great meal at Melograno too. The one question we had though was whether they change their menu. We at there for the first time in the early Fall after they opened the new restaurant. Everything we had in the fall was still on the menu and the other stuff seemed pretty familiar. Does anybody know?
re: megmosa
They don't seem to really ever change the menu. They added a few items when they moved, but it has been the same since. They do usually have a few specials that change.
re: hungry100
If I recall correctly, most expensive entree on the menu is $29 for the steak. Most are in the 20-26 range, pastas in the teens.
When I go with my S.O., if we order two starters, two entrees, an a dessert to split (w/some coffees), it usually ends up being around $100 before tip. Less if we get pastas as a second. So it's a little pricier than some of the other Italian BYOBs we frequent, but still a place we like to treat ourselves to every now and then.
re: sockii
Thanks. I'm going on Thursday, and I can't wait.
re: hungry100
the pastas were totally reasonable for HUGE portions - i wanna say mine was around $15? i highly recommend the spaghetti with clams.
does anyone know if melograno has a website? i wanted to recommend it to friends and couldn't find anything online.
with regard to changing the menu (or not), i think in certain places it is better left unchanged, like here. just IMO. when i'm craving a nice, thick spaghetti, now i know where to go. i would be devastated if it were not available next time. for more adventurous or ambitious plates/places, a change once in a while might be welcome... but everything at melograno seemed fairly 'safe,' and very well-executed. those are the types of menus that i'd hate to see changed. again, that's just my two cents. if it makes sense. :)
re: rabidog
I tend to agree--Melograno has a pretty balanced, solid starting menu and I'd hate to see some of my favorites disappear. And they do tend to have interesting nightly specials if you're in the mood to try something different (the langoustine starter I had on my last visit was fabulous). There are some places I like going to, to always have something different (like Matyson, with their weekly tasting menus). But others I'm happy when my regular favorite dishes are always there...
re: sockii
I have visions of padardelle (sp?) dancing in my head...
re: rabidog
No, they don't really change the menu, but, as was said, the specials were where the variety lived.
The mushroom pappardelle is exquisite. It's so good it's tempting to get an extra order to take home.

Having Upper and Lower Done on April 23 Under Local Anaesthesia - Worried I Don't Have Enough Time Off Of Work!
- JHBridge
- 1 year ago
I am kind of concerned about pain, bruising, swelling.... I was hoping to go back to work (desk job) on April 25. I will be able to be in a private setting with nobody seeing me until April 29. Concerned now that I am being too optimistic about my recovery. Maybe I need to put it off until I can take 2 weeks off which will not be for a long time. I am 53. Anyone have any suggestions?
Comments (2)
Does anyone have any photos of the week after surgery. I am having both uppers and lowers done and need to know what I will look like (generally). I am taking one week off work. Thanks to anyone willing to share.
From what many of the doctors have said, you should be able to go back to most jobs in about 5-7 days. Obviously it's different for everyone, but you could certainly get away with 6 days in private.
Good luck tomorrow! I hope everything goes well. Please keep us posted on your progress.

In order to save the goats, Fette Sau must barbecue them! Thats what Joe Carroll told Grub on his most recent visit to the Frankford Ave. outpost of his popular Brooklyn-based barbecue joint. You see, here in America, goat cheese is popular, and to a much lesser extent, so is goats milk. But the meat? Not so much. As such, often times dairy farmers are forced to euthanize young male goats each year, because they dont produce milk. To help curb the senseless waste, Heritage Foods USAs No Goat Left Behind program works to align dairy farmers with chefs, and get goat on the menus at more restaurants. They hope that by introducing the meat to a wider selection of the dining out public, fewer goats will have to be put down, and discarded.
Just as he did at Fette Saus Williamsburg mothership last year for Heritage Foods USAs inaugural goat push, Carrolls putting them on the menu here this weekend. The whole heritage breed goats arrived this morning, and will most likely go in smokers tomorrow after getting prepped and patted down with Fette Saus proprietary dry rub blend. Once the goats are ready, probably sometime on Friday, they will be added to the chalkboard menu.

By Tererai Karimakwenda
SW Radio Africa
07 July, 2014
Zimbabwe's two largest municipalities are facing a money crisis that has seen workers go unpaid for months and uncollected rubbish piling up as service delivery virtually collapses.
The capital Harare and nearby town of Chitungwiza are facing similar problems, with residents complaining that management is overpaid while ordinary workers suffer without wages and residents go without running water, rubbish collection and other services that they are paying for.
The situation in Harare will soon get worse, following a garnishing order issued by the Zimbabwe Revenue Authorities (Zimra), which required the city to pay over $40 million in outstanding taxes and penalties.
Harare Mayor Bernard Manyenyeni admitted the order comes at time when they were about to pay some workers who have gone without salaries for months and it will also "negatively affect" service delivery, meaning there will be even more rubbish piling up and reduced provision of water and other services.
The town clerk Tendai Mahachi continues to take home a shocking $37,000 per month while the top 20 directors are reportedly using up $500,000 per month in salaries. This is despite an order from government limiting monthly salaries of executives in government institutions.
In Chitungwiza the workers have resorted to an indefinite strike, which started last week after management failed to pay their wages for a whole year and have been secretive about the budget and revenue collected from residents. The council insists they are owed $27 million by residents and owe $10 million to workers.
Arthur Taderera from the Chitungwiza Residents and Ratepayers Association (CRRA) said they have been requesting a schedule of expenditure from management but none has been provided so far and there has been no communication since two scheduled meetings were cancelled.
"Litter is almost everywhere in the township but in some places it is even worse because people are dumping at the corner sites and whatever place they can," Tadererai told SW Radio Africa.
He added: "Water, water, there has been no running water in many places and to add insult to injury the council now has embarked on hiring a debt collector for services which were not rendered."
According to NewZimbabwe.com, the debt collector is a law firm owned by the ZANU PF former MP for Chivi South, Paul Mangwana. The law firm, Mangwana and Partners, has reportedly been sending letters of demand to residents, warning them to pay or risk having their property attached.
Residents in Harare are also receiving demand letters from debt collectors hired by the council, warning them of properties being attached if they fail to pay. The city says it is owed a total of nearly $254 million by ratepayers as of May, 2014. The majority, $130 million, is owed by industry with residents owing $105 million.
But in both Harare and Chitungwiza residents are refusing to pay for services that they are not getting, especially running water, rubbish collection and road repairs. Exorbitant salaries paid to management also remains a critical issue.

Cash machines get a voice
Swedish bank SEB has introduced 400 talking cashpoints, pitched at customers with sight problems, dyslexia, and other issues. Pressing a button before inserting a cashcard activates the speech synthesis option. Services available with voice synthesis include cash withdrawal, account balance options, and mobile phone top-ups. …
Announve to the world MUG ME!!!!!!
Image some unsavoury folk hanging around the cash point or even near buy
"Your Current balance is £4456 and 72 pence"
"withdraw cash"
"You have Chose to Withdrawn £300"
"Have a nice day"
Yeah you are now a target for getting the shit kicked out of you cus they now know you are worth the effort.
What's so great about this?!
I live in Japan and they've had talking cash machines here for years. Sadly, only in Japanese. Cash machines are in the future. Some even do retinal scans! They have live webcam feeds to staff if you have problems, built in scanners for sending information to the webcam staff while you're in a call to help sort things out, and you can do anything you can do at a cashier point (pay bills, send money internationally, pay for something you bought off amazon, etc.) as well as coming in air conditioned booths which of course stop people from robbing you, as it's only 1 person at a time in a booth.
Of course being Japan, land of the bizarre, they sometimes close, for reasons unknown, and often charge a fee out of hours (mostly to do with the fact that no-one borrows money in Japan, meaning banks do not make a profit that way).
The machine detects you enterting and says welcome, asks you to insert your card, type in your pin, take your money, don't forget your card etc. so I don't really think it's aimed at people with disabilities per se, but it's something. Perhaps it's enough. The screen is easy enough to read. I don't think using a cash machine if you're completely blind is a wise idea anyway.
Canada has something similar (I think)
In Canada, several bank machines (at least, all CIBC bank machines I know of) have a headphone jack that a user can plug into, to receive audio options.
(The only difficulty, of course, would be finding the audio jack in the first place.)
Erm, not really 'new' is it?
Many UK cashpoints have a headphone jack for those who want to listen to whats happening.
The jack points downwards, and is housed in a protrusion near the slot for your card.
Presumably if you have sight difficulties, but can make out the bright patch that is the screen, you can then figure fairly easily where the card slot and headphone jack are.
Photo example of headphone Jack
This picture shows the headphone jack next to the card slot on many UK cashpoints... in case anybody wondered.
Old News
In Australia talking ATM's were introduced about 1988 at the State Bank of NSW. In a country with about the highest literacy level in the world I think they decided in the next few years that the extra expense of adding the voice to the machine was not really worth it.
Seen it
Several times in the US. Some would just straight-up talk, others have a little headphone socket for a blind person to plug in.
"Computer says 'No'".
