Mastro's Steakhouse - Palm Desert Ratings and Reviews

We were disappointed, there were only 2 tables seated in our room and the hosts seated them RIGHT next to us. That is nuts.
As well, one of us ordered the crab appetizer at 6:00 PM and we were told you ran out. What?
We were there last Tuesday and then this past Thursday. What a difference experience a week makes.

We enjoyed a great evening for our Anniversary dinner. Service was outstanding and the food was great. There was a large party in the room next door, however it was no bother except for the occasional flash from the photographer.

Excellent food and service. Only downfall was they were out of the Oystets Rockefeller. The signature dessert, Butter Cake was to die for. Their Lobster sushi roll was outstanding.
I would recommend Mastro's for any special event, but be ready to drop $300-$400 for a nice dinner for a two and a mid price bottle of wine.

This was our anniversary. My wife ordered a filet well done with no pink. Those were her words to the server "no pink". After 40 minutes our food was delivered. We didn't expect a quicker turn around since her steak was well done. My wife cut open the steak and it was not well done, but medium rare. The outside of the steak was burned. I know the chef threw the steak on at the last minute and thought he would slip this buy her. To be honest, Outback can cook a better steak. There is absolutely no excuse for what the server presented her.
Also, the singing in the bar makes it to mousey in the dining room.

This is probably the Best steak house!!! Yes, better than our next favorite Ruth's Chris! I can't believe we didn't know about it sooner. We come over at least 4-5 times a year. This will be a must every time we come. We had Bret and we had the best service! His suggestions we so good! The manager is very attentive. He came up to our table a couple of times just to check in. We will be back for sure!

There is no better place in the desert that is better than Mastro's for a special occasion and a great meal. We celebrated our 50th anniversary and my son and daughter in law's first at Mastro's on July 4th and returned for another special dinner on our last night in the desert on this trip. The bone-in filets are always prepared perfectly and accompanied by the best Bernaise sauce ever. Starting the meal with their sublime shrimp cocktail is a must--the shrimp are huge but tender and the atomic horseradish in the cocktail sauce is superb. I'm partial to the profiteroles for desert but at that point barely have room for one and my son and his wife always want the absolutely fantastic butter cake. Some of Mastro's regular exceptional wait staff understandably were spending the Fourth of July with friends and family but we discovered another extraordinary waiter on our last visit--Brett. He has a knack for making a memorable meal even better!

If you would like to have a conversation with your dinner companions this is not the place. The bar scene is great but the music and noise carries to the dining room which in turn makes those that have had a few cocktails increase their volume. Our Server and the staff were amazing. Dessert was excellent.

Mastro's always has delicious food and impeccable service . The only disappointment was I took my husband there for his birthday and they charged us for the birthday, we didn't ask for . I. Top of it we ordered the prefix summer menu which included dessert . Just a bit tacky.

For a restaurant that professes to be a "special occasion, classy" restaurant, they do a lot to diminish that effect with three HD tvs blasting sports from three sides of the bar and and an electronic band that permeates the restaurant. The food was surpassed only by the attentive service, but the effort was ruined by the noise.

My wife and I celebrated our 30th wedding anniversary and the dinning experience was outstanding. Thank you Mastro's for the exceptional service and quality of food for a reasonable price. We plan on returning in the future and highly recommending it to our friends.

My waiter was Marco he gave excellent service n made my special nite run smooth. The seafood tower was amazing as with the sea bass. The dry ice El Paseo margarita was out of this world tasty👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾. The nite ended with a beautiful plated dessert butter cream cake my waiter even wrote happy birthday on it and topped it with a candle very nice touch😎 I would definitely come back for future special dates not bad at all for the 250$ I spend including tip which he deserved 😊😊😊😊😊😊

The only problem that I had, was I didn't order cream of spinach, it was dished out before I could tell the waiter that it was not ordered. Someone in our party was brought another beer that he didn't order. I was charged for both items. FYI my bill was $1000.00.

The resturant in Palm Desert was ice cold and very uncomfortable on Fathers day..
the service started out good and then they just left us sitting for a while..
not what I expect when Iam paying these prices... The music was loud and not
conducive to relaxing and having dinner... and being able to talk...
I won't be back anytime soon.

I must say that the minor oversight from our last visit in May was minimal but the staff was so welcoming and treated us to a appetizer. We were not asking for that but it was well appreciated also by the couple accompanying us for our anniversary dinner. All four of us last Sunday asked for the $65 special dinner and ordered the 8 oz. filet. things were going along well until our guest received this half inch steak instead of the thicker filets we received. the waiter was perplexed and a woman supervisor was adamant that his small piece of meat was a filet. His wife traded the steak with him and confirmed that it was a NY strip. We all thought the staff would want to satisfy and offer a new steak but none was forthcoming. I'm not sure we will be able to bring our friends back who have dined at Mastros everywhere except PD. Too bad it happened that this one person made our evening uncomfortable especially for our waiter who worked hard and we appreciated his effort.
I had requested a quiet table in my rese ...
I had requested a quiet table in my reservation form through open table...as we were with elderly people with hearing aids. When we arrived we were told they would not honor our request as they were not opening up another dining room. The only dining room open on Father's Day was next to the bar where live music was playing...and only a curtain separated the 2 rooms. so the loud music infiltrated the dining room they were utilizing. For what we paid, this was unacceptable. The manager stopped by our table , as well as others, and asked how we were enjoying ourselves, and we explained the situation. She offered no explanation, but said it should n to have happened...and did not offer to move us, or comp a drink or dessert, or anything.She just walked away and we did not see her the rest of the evening.
We requested a high table in the bar sin ...
We requested a high table in the bar since we like the lively scene and our request was granted. The service was pretty on point; however for the high level of restaurant Mastro's is, I thought our service was not very polished. Her serving style, etc. were not very crisp or on point.
Overall we had a great experience and would go back but dinner for 2, splitting an entrée , was $153. If you like a high end restaurant and have the funds, it's the place to go

Our experience at Mastros exceeded expectations. The service, atmosphere, quality of food and overall experience was fantastic. Chef Devin Peters came out and said hello, which made us feel special. I highly recommend to anyone considering a great dining experience in the desert.
Not a good visit. Mastro's is about the ...
Not a good visit. Mastro's is about the steaks. Unfortunately, my steak and my companion's steak were a miss (mine) and a complete failure (the companion). I ordered the bone-in rib-eye, medium rare, and had a very specific conversation with the wait-person (Rita?) to ensure it came medium rare. It arrived medium in parts and medium plus in others. Since it seems to take forever to prepare a steak and it was getting late, I had this one. My companion ordered the filet, medium. His came undercooked; they put it back on the grill and it was returned rare; and then they put the same steak back on the grill, again!, and by now, it was overcooked and awful. God, I couldn't believe they did that: a 3rd time with the same steak? Really?!! That's just bad training. The side of green beans were good (not overcooked); the creamed spinach had too much cream and not enough spinach; the mushrooms were fine; and the French fries were cold. I recognize that shoestring fries do not retain their heat very long, but these fries clearly had been sitting around a while before being served. The cherry crisp: I love sour cherries, but this item had more crisp than cherries - too sweet; not good. Service was fine, but I was very disappointed that the guy helping Rita (when the steaks went south) decided it was acceptable to put the same steak back on the grill for a 3rd time; and then serves it overcooked. You have to wonder about their training (and ability) on how to prepare a steak. They took care of the steaks, but the entire point of the meal IS the steak. Otherwise, why bother? We sat in a smaller room away from the noise of the place - it was fine. Lighting could be improved, but having visited other locations in this chain, they somehow think the lack of sufficient lighting is an interesting feature. It's not. Sigh. In the end, it's just another steakhouse chain. No better or worse than the others in this area including Ruth's Chris, Morton's, Flemings, LG's, or Chop House.

Our first time here, and celebrating our 27th anniversary we found we weren't alone. At least three couples around us doing the same. Excellent steak..filet on the bone. The lobster mashed potatoes too pricey but tasty. Service? Great. From door to table, and even a follow up call the next day. Very comfortable room, too. We'll be back.

It saddens and angers me that we chose Mastros to 34th. we got bad service and my hubby's steak was so bad that he had to have them take it back. He did end up getting another steak but by the time he got his new steak our sides were too cold to eat. We ask for more bread which we got but the person who broght it to us just placed it on our table in a not so nice manner without taking the other empty basket. We had to aks for our waters to be refilled twice. When we got our check, we were being charged for both of my hubby's steak which we had to tell them to fix. It was as if noone was paying attention that night. I just feel like we could have gone to a lower scale steak house and gotten way better service for the $200 we ended paying at Mastros in Palm Desert. We have gone to Mastros in Costa Mesa many times and have always gotten great service.
Needless to say next time we have a special occasion will think twice before going back to Mastros. I feel like my birthday dinner was ruined. About the only thing i enjoyed that night was the signature lemon drops i had.
Very disappointed customer,
Sherley Vargas

Service markedly diminished from previous experiences; almost absent! Nobody came after serving apps, main course or dessert to check. Had to chase down personnel in halls for needs including water/tea refills. No offer of tea/coffee/etc with dessert or after.
New personnel vs staffing problems?
Dinner was good until the Kardashians showed up
I took my wife and our best friends there for her 39th ++ BD. Our waitress was less than ok, a bit on the loud side. I asked for a glass of ice which took at least 15 minutes to arrive. The expensive bottle of champagne that was bought for the two ladies, I had to pour twice because no one came by. The same was true with the equally expensive bottle of red wine. But the service got very
bad when Cris Kardashian sat down stairs a table next to ours. Ours waitress wouldn't leave there table and became even louder. Their table seemed to find great humor in flicking butter up so it stuck on the restaurant's 12' + ceilings. My friend told them they should stop and one came over and said it was all in fun. When he asked who was going to pay to clean it , he was told it wasn't their problem. After waiting a half hour for our desserts, my wife's favorite hot butter cake, which she'd waited for was not brought but instead a piece of cheese cake. Wanting the butter cake we'd order we ordered it again being assured it would take just 5 minutes. We finally gave up after 20-30 minutes and decided to leave, the cake was brought to us in a bag as we left the restaurant.

Is justice truly behind arrest?
Published: Wednesday, June 1, 2005 at 3:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Tuesday, May 31, 2005 at 9:40 p.m.
Dear Editor: The Associated Press reported on May 18 that "...the Bush administration has arrested [Luis Posada Carriles,] an anti-Castro exile accused of masterminding a deadly 1976 airliner bombing"; later in that report, we learn that Carriles had been acquitted twice in Venezuelan courts of that crime.
While I'm pretty sure Venezuela doesn't offer the same protections Americans enjoy (or used to), Constitutional rights, including prohibition of double jeopardy, are supposed to apply to human beings in general.
So why has Carriles been arrested, when others like O. J. Simpson walk free? Is this administration merely practicing justice, or appeasing two enemy dictators and terrorist collaborators (Cuba's thoroughly disgusting and hypocritical Castro and Venezuela's Hugo Chavez) a la Elian Gonzalez?

Queuing in the rain was very apt for this evening! We were all waiting to watch Travis live at The Pyramids Centre, Portsmouth.
The band came on at 9:15 and played thru to 11pm. They steamed straight into 3 new tracks from their latest album Ode To J Smith before playing… (cont'd) Mikey from Erith

When hunting being on the ground in the middle of the action is what many hunters are looking for from the hunt. The best way to do this is to be on the ground in the blind near where the deer will be out and about. But hunting from a blind and finding the right blind can be a challenge especially for those new hunters just getting in on the action. Here are some tips and tricks on how to pick the right blind for the area and get the blind ready for this hunting season.
The first step in blind hunting is finding the right blind for the type of hunting that is going to be taking place. For this a hunter needs to look at where the hunting is going to be taking place, what the brush around the blind will be and how many people will be in the blind come opening day. Since blinds come in all shapes and sizes knowing where the hunt will take place is the first step for finding the right blind. For blinds that will be on the periphery of a field a blind that is lightweight and easy to set up a while before the hunting season opens is a good idea. For this a good blind is the RedHead® Enigma™ 5 Ground Blind, this blind is lightweight with straps for brush to be directly attached to the blind without having to add extra weight with extra equipment to tie on brush.
A different path that can be taken for this area on the tree line of a field would be a more permanent structure. A great blind for this would be the Shadow Hunter Octagon Archery Blind, since this blind has a door and windows that can be locked and sealed, this box blind is perfect for a permanent blind on the tree line. This blind is also great because the size makes it a good fit for not only archery hunters but rifle hunters also.
While having a blind is all well and good, many times these blinds stick out on the ground like a sore thumb. So having a little netting or other camouflage to help break up the outline of the blind is never a bad thing. A great way to do this is to drape a piece of camouflage burlap over top of the blind, this being done bunch up pieces of the burlap randomly and attach them to the blind. These random bulges and flat places in the material will help break up the blind for the curious game that are looking for immediate threats. The next step is to cut the windows of the blind out of the material, since the material is easily movable it is preferred to cut three sides of the material and let the window be covered but still have the ability to be shot out of unhindered. Doing this gives the maximum concealment while still being usable. A good material for doing this is the Hunter's Specialties H.S. Camo Blind Material – Burlap, this material is easy to manipulate and cut while retaining the camouflage very well in all types of weather. For this type of extra concealment to work effectively the blind should be covered and brushed in a couple of weeks prior to the start of the hunting season in which it will be used.
Another type of blind hunting will take place in the middle of a field with stubble and hay bales. A new way to use a blind is to mimic a hay bale close to a game trail where an identified group has been seen. Since a hay bale is so innocuous to many animals, and are seen to move so often many times deer and other game species will not notice a new hay bale in a field. So using something like the Redneck Blinds Sportsman Bale Hunting Blind, keeps a hunter concealed and a game animal in the dark as to the fact that they are being hunted. This little extra advantage can be the difference in a successful hunt and a slow day in the blind.
Finally there is one last thing to look at when hunting in a ground blind. That is gear storage while in the blind. While being on the ground and near the action is fun and exciting, it can be hard on gear if not done properly. This is where gear holders and blind shelves come in handy. Having something like the HME Products Ground Blind Accessory Shelf, hung in a blind helps keep things like game calls and binoculars off the ground and away from moisture in the mornings. Also having something like the HME Products Ground Blind Gun Holder or the HME Ground Blind Bow Holder, will keep everything else in the blind off the ground that could possibly be damaged by dew in the morning, while keeping the gear close at hand for a quick shot.
Now that the blind is picked and brushed in, the gear is stowed off the ground and the game is moving it is time for some blind hunting. Remember to brush in the blind before season so the game animals get used to the new object in their area. Then get to the blind very early before the animals start moving for the best concealment. As always happy hunting and good luck!

Product Description
From the Manufacturer
What are Rogue FlashBenders?
Rogue FlashBenders SystemRogue FlashBenders, unique shapeable light modifiers for shoe mount flash, enable unparalleled control for strobe lighting enthusiasts. Manufactured to meet the demanding needs of location photographers, FlashBenders' patent pending design provides complete control over the shape of the reflector.
Dynamic ModifiersFlashBenders represent a new approach to controlling light. FlashBenders are positionable. You can bend a FlashBender into a shape and it will stay in position until you reform it.
Unlike static flash diffusers and bounce reflectors, dynamic Rogue FlashBenders allow you to direct light where you want it. The result is more artistic control over your photography.
Work Fast
Rather than moving your whole light stand or attaching a different light modifier to tweak a shot, with a FlashBender you can often simply bend the reflector, instead.
FlashBender Features:
|Patent-pending positionable design allows for unparalleled light control
|Fits any standard shoe-mount flash using integrated tension mount
|Durable materials
|Neutral white surface won't change the color temperature of reflected flash (87% reflectivity)
|Reflective surfaces may be wiped down
|Packs flat for portability (weighs just 6 oz.)
About the Large Positionable Reflector
Create a Larger Light with Your Small FlashThe reflective face of the Large FlashBender Positionable Reflector measures approximately 9" square, effectively turning the point-source light of your hot shoe flash into a much bigger light source. The versatile Rogue FlashBender Large Positionable Reflector can be used either as a reflector to bounce light onto a subject, as a flag to shield light away from it or as a snoot to produce a tight and narrow circle of light.
Because of its size, the Large Reflector is perfect for off-camera use. In most instancecs, the flash head should be positioned either vertically (straight up), or horizontally (all the way down) when the Large Reflector is attached.
This FlashBender Moves with Three RodsThe patent pending design incorporates (3) positionable rods that allow the Large Reflector to be molded into position and held in place. This means that you can form the FlashBender in order to control where your flash's light is directed, putting light where you want it and not where you don't.
Integrated MountThe Rogue FlashBender Large Positionable Reflector requires no separate attachment strap, nor any adhesives to be applied to the strobe. The easy attachment belt built into this FlashBender is designed to work with all makes and models of shoe mount flash.
Light and PortableThe Large Reflector weighs approximately 6 oz. (163g),and measures approx. 10" x 11" (254mm x 280mm).
FlashBender Materials
FlashBenders are made from tough abrasion-resistant nylon and lightweight yet strong coiled spring steel positioning rods. FlashBenders' white reflective surfaces are made from a durable, wipeable, synthetic fabric which has been tested for neutrality so that it won't alter the color temperature of the reflected light from a strobe.
Fits Most Small Flash Units
Rogue FlashBenders fit a wide range of shoe mount flash brands, including: Canon, Konica, Metz, Minolta, Nikon, Nissin, Olympus, Panasonic, Pentax, Quantum, Sigma, Sony and Vivitar.

I am a spectator, so to speak, of the molecular whirlwind which men call individual life; I am conscious of an incessant metamorphosis, an irresistible movement of existence, which is going on within me - and this phenomenology of myself serves as a window opened upon the mystery of the world. I am, or rather my sensible consciousness is, concentrated upon this ideal standing-point, this invisible threshold, as it were, whence one hears the impetuous passage of time, rushing and foaming as it flows out into the changeless ocean of eternity. After all the bewildering distractions of life - after having drowned myself in a multiplicity of trifles and in the caprices of this fugitive existence, yet without ever attaining to self-intoxication or self-delusion - I come again upon the fathomless abyss, the silent and melancholy cavern, where dwell 'Die Mutter,' where sleeps that which neither lives nor dies, which has neither movement nor change, nor extension, nor form, and which lasts when all else passes away.
- Henri Frederic Amiel
(1821 - 1881)

|Nobody proably knows what this manga is. I am very excited for one. Neuro looks to be a great replacement for Death Note since it's over. The art direction is great. The characters are original. The premise is odd and interesting. This is gonna be one of the hot animes this fall.

I hope Madhouse will treat the series well. I bet they'll do the twisted imagery justice.
The ANN news entry didn't report it, but apparently Madhouse will animate it and Koyasu Takehito will be taking the lead role.

My impression had them ranked about the same?
They're both really, really good, but I have to give the edge to Neuro for sheer levels of inappropriate insanity.

Customer Reviews
Top Customer Reviews
Sin (long): I hate saying this, but, one word... weak. This track almost ruined the song for me. It's almost ridiculous. I skip it everytime this cd enters my stereo.
Sin (dub): As others have commented, this is the only track that feels like a remix. But, I still really don't like it. It would have been better an instrumental. This track has what ruined Long as it's only lyrics, the repetition of the words 'sin' and 'control'. Really terrible, is skipped like the song before it.
Get Down, Make Love: This is truely the best song on this. Before I was a NIN fan, I was a Queen fan (if you like this song, it's on News of the World) and I was not disappointed with the rendition that is portrayed onthis cd. No one can match Freddie Mercury at singing, however, Trent doesn't sing. He takes a different approuch and screams it. Bravo. (note, the sound clips are from the Original version)
Sin (short): Not as good as the original, however, it's listenable. The three remixes of Sin found on this cd all have one thing in common... a dance style drum part. I personally think that draws from the angst in the lyrics, but, some people like it. The only good thing about this track is that is doesn't go into a long annoying piece with the repitition of words that make the song lose meaning.
As a whole, I think the majority of this cd butchered one of the best NIN songs, but for the Queen cover, it's worth checking out.
1.Sin(long): this song is the as the title suggests, the longest mix on the cd. its 5minutes or so long, but its great. Trents vocals sound like they were being spoken though a bullhorn. about 3 minutes into it, it gives you a taste of what the Dub version is like. its general mood would be angry, but retains a similarity to both the original version and short version.
2.Sin(dub): this song is about 5minutes as well. this song is mostly instrumental with the exception of the words 'lies' 'sin' and 'control'. its sorta like this song were a repeating mental break, focusing on what went wrong. this song is so unlike the other versions of this song. but it is fantastic.
3.Get Down Make Love: this song is a queen cover. its 4minutes and 19seconds long. this is something you have to hear for yourself. it is one of the most amazing covers i've ever heard. you should hear this song live...fantastic.
4.Sin(short): just like the title says...the short version. its about 4minutes and 16seconds long. this one is most like the original version of Sin found on Halo2. this version has a more sad vibe than the angry/agressive nature of the Long version. both the Short and Dub versions are perSiNal favorites of mine.
this is something you should definitely buy. at under 20minutes this cd doesnt get tiring. and the brilliant remixing of LeBlanc/Sherwood is amazing for these songs. they retain the original meaning of the song. as for the cases...the domestic cover is red and gold, and on the back purple and gold.Read more ›
Hint: If you can tape or burn DJ-style compilations with high cueing precision, try to follow GDML with "Closer." If the first beat of "Closer" follows the rhythm of GDML's end sample from "We Will Rock You," it's an eye-popping segue. I did this on a mix disc for myself, and it does not fail to knock listeners over.
Long and Short are similar, yet both great. This whole single will get your blood pumping, weather it be the harsh lyrics, good guitar riffs, or ripping synth-lines, this single's got it all for any industrial fan.
Throw in a aggresive cover of Get Down Make Love, producded by nonother than Mr. Ministry, Al Jourgenson, and you have a excellent single.
If you're a fan of industrial, NIN, Pretty Hate Machine, or anything along those lines, certainly check this out. You will not be a disapponted. This is the last thing to come out of the PHM "era", and what a way to end it!

In all honesty, this is probably the hardest choice of all. To pick a single genre that's my favorite? I could more easily pick my least favorite genre (puzzle) than my favorite.
Once again, I'm going to cheat slightly and talk about two genres I adore more than any other: Fighting and RPG.
Fighting games have been a particular favorite genre of mine since Street Fighter II was released in the arcade. Battling one on one with another person right next to you, trying to see who is the better person at the game at that moment. Though the arcade scene started to gradually dwindle away around the time that Capcom vs SNK 2: Millionaire Battle was released, those years before it did were some of the most intense in gaming. Reading a player right next to you by dissecting their mannerisms in game was something you didn't learn overnight, but when you could get the right read and capitalize off of it, man was that a rush. Though the battlefield has moved online, it's not the same anymore, and it only seems more attractive of an experience when there's someone right next to you, playing against you. Also, it doesn't help that Capcom has been quickly diluting the genre with unwarranted remakes, re-releases and such. It's just so hard to stay away from the genre for too long, especially if something monumental comes along, and all the cool kids are playing it.
Then there's the RPG genre. This is a blanket term, not the annoying WRPG, JRPG or CRPG labels that have grown over the years. I'm talking about role playing games as a whole. Whether it's the stereotypical build like the Final Fantasy franchise, the point and click universe of Icewind Dale or the the more modernized approaches found in Mass Effect, the RPG genre is one that I absolutely enjoy. I have quite a library of RPG games throughout all systems as well, though most of them I have never played more than a few minutes of. For a genre I admire so much, I sure do have a difficult time maintaining a focus on any single one title from beginning to end, but I think it's more the fact that I have so many I want to experience, that I just overload on too many at once, and stop all together. There are the handful that I frequently dive back into, such as Suikoden, Final Fantasy VI, Mass Effect and Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic. Regardless of what games I have queued up, they always seem to leap to the beginning of the line and capture my interest from beginning to end, each and every time.
Again, I really can't choose one genre over the other. Fighting games and RPG's have been a longtime love triangle for me, and no other genre has ever come close to dethroning either one of them. Quite frankly, I don't ever expect it to happen, and I'm fully content with this.

We were there for one overnight as wedding attendees and had made reservations months in advance. Paying over $100 for the old, musty, outdated, crowded and somewhat dangerous (step down into the tiny bathroom was not marked in any way) room wasn't bad enough; then they added $50 for two dogs. We were given no information as to checkout time or anything else...they just took the credit card and gave us the room keys. The TV reception on the circa 1980 TV, that was mounted at the ceiling as there was no other room, was so bad it was hard to tell what program was being shown. A totally disgraceful rip-off money wise. On top of that, they charge to enter the only beach on the lake. It's a beautiful setting with lovely ambiance that is totally ruined by their gouging.

An article yesterday about the French government's effort to stop anti-Semitic violence referred incorrectly to results of a recent opinion survey sponsored by the European Commission. (The error also appeared on Sunday in an article about European attitudes toward President Bush.) Respondents were asked to identify the countries -- not the leaders -- they perceived as the greatest threats to world peace. A majority perceived Israel (not Prime Minister Ariel Sharon) as the greatest threat; the United States and North Korea (not Mr. Bush and the North Korean leader Kim Jong Il) were ranked No. 2.

Romantic Love
Sleepless nights, anxiety, mood swings, euphoric energy bursts, obsessive thinking, and a strange feeling in his chest. That is what Matt was experiencing when he first entered my practice. Rather than being concerned, he was loving every minute of it.
Hip Flexor Contractures & LBP in Above-the-Knee Amputations
Patients with above-the-knee amputations (AK or AKA) are particularly prone to developing hip flexor contractures. Not to be confused with muscle tightness, contractures are a permanent shortening of tissues which cause deformity or distortion.
Holistic Skin Care and Modern Technology
Anti-aging is a concept that we hear in reference to skin rejuvenation and growing older on a daily basis. Aging begins as soon as we are born; therefore "pro-aging" is embracing all stages of life gracefully, with vitality, wisdom, joy, and gratitude as the goal.
Constructing Our Reality, Part 2
My last article discussed perception and its relationship to the primary channels. Before we get to the channels most commonly used to treat sensory disturbances, the small intestine and triple heater, we should first talk about the bladder channel.
With Low-Back Pain, Sometimes Little Things Matter
Typical treatments for low back pain involve large muscles like the quadratus lumborum, iliopsoas, and piriformis. However, there are situations when a very small muscle, the multifidus, can play a significant role in the diagnosis and treatment of low back muscular or spinal injury.
The Need for Standards
ISO-TC-249: You may look at these letters and numbers and wonder what they are and what they might mean. They turn into: International Standards Organization- Technical Committee – 249. There is a global organization called The International Organization for Standardization.
Transforming Las Vegas
On a warm spring day in Las Vegas, Sonia Kim, clinic front desk staff, is busy preparing for a full day of intern shifts at Wongu Health Center. She greets patients, makes sure documents are properly signed, and lets the interns know that their patients have arrived.
How to Reach Your World With the Chiropractic Message
My latest effort to share chiropractic occurred in mid-May while I was sitting at an introductory parent information night for high schoolers. The IT instructor informed us that each student would be receiving a computer for all their studies.
Discovery: Finding Insights and Each Other in Different Disciplines
Recently I've been thinking about all sorts of things which are hidden from our daily direct experience. That general category is what links nearly everything that catches my attention and then demands some kind of investigation.
Living Well: Lessons From Our Oldest Old
Aging is a significant public health problem, important to chiropractors in practice and important to DCs who teach students training to become chiropractors.
Parker University Embraces New Era
Change is in the air at Parker University, which recently announced the selection of both a new president and a new consultant for its seminar program.
A Whole-Body Approach to Chronic Tension Headaches
Nearly every day in our practices, we see patients with chronic headaches that have not responded to traditional treatment. They present in our offices with a feeble hope that "maybe" a chiropractor can help.
Billing Timed Services
Q: I do not always use physical medicine services but in my state I do have a scope of practice that allows me to provide many of these services. I am trying to understand what "direct one-on-one patient contact" means in relation to physical medicine services.
Building Bridges with Discipline
As practitioners of traditional Chinese herbal medicine, our role is to educate patients and medical practitioners about the various safety aspects of our medicine. Medical doctors that embrace Chinese medicine want to collaborate and include Chinese herbal medicine in more aspects of clinical care to support their patients.
Distal Style Treatment of Neurogenic Pain
Treat locally or distally? This question has frequented my thoughts for the treatment of pain throughout my acupuncture career. Each style has strengths and weaknesses, thus the versatile practitioner would do well to forgo dogmatic adherence to any one style in deference to the needs of the individual patient.
Billing One-on-One, Direct Patient Contact
This is often misunderstood and leads to trepidation when documenting and subsequently billing timed services.
A Different Way of Looking at It
The way you and your chiropractic colleagues access information has changed over the past decade. According to a recent survey conducted by Dynamic Chiropractic, almost half (48 percent) of DCs read online articles on their personal computer or laptop daily.

Understanding Levels of Evidence
The concept of levels of evidence is a cornerstone of research literacy and a great starting point for understanding basic principles of how research works.
Keeping Malpractice Allegations at Bay
It has been suggested that in the litigious environment in which we live, the practice of chiropractic should be defensive and practitioners should constantly be watching their backs. An element of defensive practice is a good idea.
In This Current Age of Anxiety
Anxiety, also referred to angst or hysteria, goes by many names. One, popularized by the sagacious Zhang Zhong Jing, who many practitioners of Chinese Medicine may be familiar with, is known as Restless Zang/Fu disorder.
Low Fat vs. Low Carb & the Power of Protein
A science-based website recently posted a nice summary of 23 randomized, controlled trials from peer-reviewed journals pitting low-carb diets against low-fat diets.
Streamline Your Front Desk
Your front office can be your greatest source of efficiency or it can be a constant bottleneck. Increasing the productivity of this area, while not sacrificing the quality of patient interaction, can be a little tricky. However, with some focused effort and intention, your front desk can keep your practice running smoothly.
Adrenal Problems
One of the most common trends to see in clinical medical practice and public health is the cycles of health "buzzwords." These come and go depending upon the current cultural zeitgeist. One year, "parasites" are causing all the issues, and the next year it's "candida."
Prostate Cancer Risk
A large study published in January 2016 in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition showed that men who are vegans had a 35% lower risk of developing prostate cancer compared to non-vegan men. The study followed more than 26,346 men who are part of the Adventists Health Study-2.

Education and Training
By Keith Eric Grant, PhD, NCTMB
"There is a great difference between knowing and understanding: you can know a lot about something and not really understand it."
- Inventor Charles F. Kettering
I might as well admit it right up front: I'm averse to educational standards, at least as they are usually promoted.In truth, I love teaching, I love furthering my own knowledge, and I encourage others to do likewise. My collection of reference books and videos continually strains my ability to store them. My aversion to such standards comes not from an antipathy toward learning, but from a feeling that they are more postural displays than genuine efforts to guide the content and timing of teaching and learning. In hearing statements about efforts to "professionalize" massage or about the massage profession "maturing," I understand promoting the requirement of more up-front hours of education as a sort of credentialing arms race with other professions.
What I find desperately lacking is discussion about matching training with the specific needs of application, and consideration of when, experience-wise, such training will be most effectively retained. What I also find lacking is a realization that learning is taking new forms in many technical domains, as the flux of newly generated information doubles every four to seven years. The implication of this knowledge explosion is that we must increasingly view learning as an ongoing, largely self-directed process whose measure is not what we know up front, but our skill at accessing resources and networks to learn what we need for immediate use. The challenge of practice lies not in amassing knowledge, but in winnowing the understanding we need from the total harvest of disciplinary knowledge.
In designing the length and content of massage programs, we need to differentiate between training and education. Ironically, perhaps the clearest differentiation of training and education in terms of goals, context, and methodology comes from the military venue:
This differentiation is further developed on a recent report on military training and education for the beginning of the 21st century:
If we want to create massage degree programs, we should not develop programs that are simply a prolongation of skill training. When we extend from massage training to massage education we should aim to produce graduates that not only can perform techniques, but who also can interface with other healthcare and social care needs. Graduates should have the vision and skills to develop and manage new programs, and the background to successfully write grants to fund their programs. In short, our program should address developing leaders for the social context of massage.
In contrast, I believe that massage training should be much more pragmatic and specific. We should approach training programs with the hard-eye to costs and benefits of a corporate training manager. Content of a training program should address skills applicable and demonstrably needed in the near future - a "just in time" approach to learning that reinforces training with immediate experience. Given the rate at which unused knowledge decays to oblivion in the human mind, training should be designed to be provided in a modular/incremental fashion. Hours of training should be defendable in terms of the hours required to convey and practice well-defined content appropriate to the trainee's near-future practice. Continuing education workshops should supply the ability to draw on a greater pool of clinical experience. In practice, much of what is offered falls far short of this objective. Our goal, rather than convincing practitioners that their continued learning depends on being force fed, should be to teach them the skills for awareness, observation, and self-directed learning. Practitioners who can teach themselves will still be interested in attending workshops of value to them. The motivation comes from encouragement, sharing, and following Joseph Campbell's notable advice: "follow your bliss".
Beyond what we learn in formal situations, there are numerous opportunities for self-directed continual learning. There are also opportunities to marshal our personal knowledge and skills to become a resource center. By sharing our experience and vision, we can lead without a formal portfolio. In Japan, there is the concept of a person of wisdom being a national living treasure. We can all aspire to be living treasures for our personal communities of co-learners.
In closing, I'll return to Charles Kettering for a forward-looking 1941 statement on the necessity of interspersing experience between increments of theory:

The New York Times bestselling The School for Good and Evil, the first book in the series, is an epic journey into a dazzling new world, where the only way out of a fairy tale is to live through one. This paperback edition features an Extras section, giving readers a chance to see which school they'd be in and a Q&A with the author, Soman Chainani.
With her glass slippers and devotion to good deeds, Sophie knows she'll earn top marks at the School for Good and join the ranks of past students like Cinderella, Rapunzel, and Snow White. Meanwhile, Agatha, with her shapeless black frocks and wicked black cat, seems a natural fit for the villains in the School for Evil.
The two girls soon find their fortunes reversed—Sophie's dumped in the School for Evil to take Uglification, Death Curses, and Henchmen Training, while Agatha finds herself in the School for Good, thrust among handsome princes and fair maidens for classes in Princess Etiquette and Animal Communication.
But what if the mistake is actually the first clue to discovering who Sophie and Agatha really are?

by Soman Chainani
This year, best friends Sophie and Agatha are about to discover where all the lost children go: the fabled School for Good and Evil, where ordinary boys and girls are trained to be fairy-tale heroes and villains. As the most beautiful girl in Gavaldon, Sophie has dreamed of being kidnapped into an enchanted world her whole life. With her pink dresses, glass slippers, and devotion to good deeds, she knows she'll earn top marks at the School for Good and graduate a storybook princess. Meanwhile, Agatha, with her shapeless black frocks, wicked pet cat, and dislike of nearly everyone, seems a natural fit for the School for Evil.
But when the two girls are swept into the Endless Woods, they find their fortunes reversed—and they'll quickly find that the only way out of a fairy tale . . . is to live through it.
Soman Chainani's first two novels,The School for Good and EvilandThe School for Good and Evil: A World Without Princes, debuted on theNew York Timesbestseller list. The series has been translated into languages across six continents and will soon be a major motion picture from Universal Pictures.
As a graduate of Harvard University and Columbia University's MFA Film Program, Soman has made films that have played at over 150 festivals around the world, and his writing awards include honors from Big Bear Lake, New Draft, the CAPE Foundation, the Shasha Grant, and the Sun Valley Writers' Fellowship.
When he's not telling stories, Soman is a die-hard tennis player who never lost a first-round match for ten years . . . until he started writingThe School for Good and Evil. Now he loses all the time.

text: Fancy Farm Picnic KPR's Kenny Colston on the Fancy Farm Picnic By Kenny Colston (KPR) • Aug 6, 2012 Unlike in years past, this year's Fancy Farm Picnic drew few elected officials. But that doesn't mean there weren't any fireworks. Kentucky Public Radio's Kenny Colston covered the picnic, and he sat down with KPR's Gabe Bullard to sum up the post-picnic chatter. Republicans Have Strong Showing at Fancy Farm By Angela Hatton • Aug 4, 2012 The republican party has a strong showing at this year's Fancy Farm Picnic. Less than 20 minutes are left to the start of the political speaking. Agriculture Commissioner James Comer will emcee, and U. S. Sen. Mitch McConnell will lead off the slate of politicians and candidates. Republicans are hoping to cinch a big victory in western Kentucky, with five open races in the general election. Local Races Major Draw for 2012 Fancy Farm By Angela Hatton • Aug 4, 2012 While the humidity is running high, a smaller slate of candidates hasn't dampened the crowd at the 2012 Fancy Farm Picnic. The event draws thousands each year, and its stump speaking is the traditional kickoff of the general election campaign season in Kentucky. Speakers start at 2 p.m. Central time. Fancy Farm Speakers List Shortens By Kenny Colston (KPR) • Aug 2, 2012 www.wikipedia.com Most of Kentucky's elected Democrats will skip this weekend's annual Fancy Farm picnic. As of Wednesday, House Speaker Greg Stumbo is the only high profile Democrat scheduled to speak. Stumbo is filling in for the governor, who's on an economic development trip in Europe. Lieutenant Governor Jerry Abramson and the four remaining statewide elected Democratic officials are opting not to speak. Afternoon Round-Up 8/1/12 By Rose Krzton-Presson • Aug 1, 2012 Today on NPR: A mile-deep mine in South Dakota was closed a decade ago. Now, it's been cleaned up and revamped as an underground science laboratory. McConnell to Speak at Fancy Farm Picnic By Heidi Couch • Jul 31, 2012 Kentucky's senior U.S. Senator Mitch McConnell said he'll speak on behalf of Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney at Saturday's annual Fancy Farm picnic. Picnic political speaking chair Mark Wilson had initially told Kentucky Public Radio Romney would send a surrogate speaker, but he later confirmed McConnell will fill in instead. Smoke Free Coalition Goes on Tour By Kenny Colston (KPR) • Jul 30, 2012 www.wikipedia.com Advocates of a statewide smoking ban are taking their issue on a five day tour before this weekend's Fancy Farm political picnic. The Smoke Free Kentucky Coalition has pushed a statewide smoking ban law in the General Assembly for the last two years. And they are making next year's legislative session a key moment in their fight. Despite Some No-Shows, Hot Political Topics to Draw Fancy Farm Crowd By Angela Hatton • Jul 26, 2012 The absence of some big names at this year's Fancy Farm Picnic won't dampen the excitement. That's the prediction from political speaking chair Mark Wilson. Gov. Steve Beshear and Lt. Gov. Jerry Abramson have bowed out, and so has U.S. Sen. Rand Paul. Afternoon Round-Up 7/25/12 By Rose Krzton-Presson • Jul 25, 2012 Doug Wilson / wikimedia commons Today on NPR: Some pay phones offer free Wi-Fi as part of New York City's experiment to breathe new life into its abandoned public phones. Beshear will miss Fancy Farm for economic trip By Kenny Colston (KPR) • Jul 25, 2012 Governor Steve Beshear is on his way to Germany and France to help economic development in Kentucky.
