There are very few vehicles available today that compare directly with the Scion FR-S and Subaru BRZ twins. A case could be made for the Mazda MX-5 Miata, and possibly even six-cylinder versions of American coupes like the Ford Mustang. Pretty much everything else is either too expensive or is powered by the wrong set of wheels.

WASHINGTON White House chief of staff Rahm Emanuel has yet to decide whether he will leave to run for mayor of Chicago, administration officials said on Wednesday, as speculation mounted he could step down as early as October.
Emanuel, President Barack Obama's right-hand man who has long expressed interest in the Chicago job, has left little doubt he may resign to enter the race to replace longtime Mayor Richard Daley, who is retiring.
But White House spokesman Robert Gibbs said Emanuel was still "in the process of thinking about what he's going to do next."
"I'm not aware that he's made any decisions. The president is not aware that he's made any decisions."
News reports on Wednesday said Emanuel was likely to step down -- or was at least considering such a move -- before U.S. congressional elections on November 2.
"I'm not going to rule anything in or anything out," Gibbs said aboard Air Force One on the way to New York, when asked if he could exclude the chance of Emanuel leaving in October. "He's in the process of thinking through what's best for Rahm."
CNN, citing people close to Emanuel, said there was now a "good chance" he would resign as soon as October.
Obama said on September 9 that Emanuel would make a "terrific" mayor, but that his aide was expected to wait until after the November 2 elections to decide.
Emanuel's post gives him influence in shaping Obama's legislative priorities with Congress. He also oversees White House staff and effectively determines who gets to see the president.
Gibbs said in a Reuters interview on Monday that he expected Emanuel to make a decision "relatively soon."
Asked whether there was any contingency planning if Emanuel opted to leave soon, Gibbs told reporters on Wednesday, "If there is somebody to replace, we'll be ready."
Obama adviser Pete Rouse would be widely expected to step in on an interim basis. Among those mentioned as possible replacements are Obama adviser Valerie Jarrett, deputy national security adviser Tom Donilon, Ron Klain, Vice President Joe Biden's chief of staff, and White House Counsel Robert Bauer
Obama's interest in keeping Emanuel as a key strategist at least until the November elections could reflect concern about his Democratic Party's dimming prospects in the face of voter anxiety over high unemployment and a troubled economy.
But Emanuel may be feeling pressure. If he decides to run, he has until November 22 to file for the February 22 election. He would also need to organize a campaign and start raising funds.
Known for his political acumen, aggressive style and expletive-laced language, he represented a Chicago district in the U.S. House of Representatives before joining Obama's team.

We have just returned from a long weekend in Paris. This hotel is ideally situated, in a safe friendly area - within easy walking distance from La Defence and from the lovely walks on the Ile de Puteaux and Bois de Boulogne. Easy to get to from the airport.
When we arrived we found that we had been allocated a double bed, and the hotel was full but ... no problem! They put an extra bed in for us. How peasant and helpful all the staff were!
Breakfasts good, everywhere was spotless and we had a separate toilet from the bathroom - very useful when sharing.
I agree with a previous reviewer - it far exceeded my expectations for a 2 star hotel and I hope to make it my regular place to stay for my weekends in Paris.

(Nov. 17, 2009)--In the late 1890s and early 1900s, Ferdinand Pribyl, a Czech Moravian, painted a series of nativities of immense scale, brilliant color and painstaking detail. Through four generations, Pribyl's nativities have been passed to family members and close friends. This holiday season, Pribyl's descendents have chosen to share their family tradition with the Institute of Texan Cultures, which will display two complete Pribyl nativities from Nov. 21 to Jan. 3.
Ferdinand Pribyl's nativities stretch between 8 and 18 feet long. Originally, they were measured to fill entire walls in family members' homes. The Pribyl nativities use cardboard cutout figures placed in a baseboard to add a sense of depth to the panorama.
Pribyl built the nativities from cardboard scavenged from oatmeal boxes, post cards and shirt boxes. The figures stand between four and six inches in height and are painted in meticulous detail. The backgrounds draw on Pribyl's memories of Austria. Vibrant colors bring life to lush green hills, stone buildings, earthy farmhouses and wooden sheds. Central to each nativity scene is the Bethlehem stable with Mary, Joseph and the baby Jesus.
Presumably, there were seven Pribyl nativities, painted between the 1890s and early 1900s, each slightly different. Over the years, they have been displayed at various museums, libraries, churches and residences in South Texas.
Ferdinand Pribyl and his family emigrated from his native Moravia in the 1880s and settled in Fayetteville, Texas. They moved to La Grange and then Hallettsville, before joining Ferdinand's brother, Jan, in Victoria. In his late 60s or early 70s with no prior artistic training, Pribyl began work on the nativity scenes.
Bette Stockbauer of Victoria, whose family owns one of the Pribyl nativities, is a descendent of Pribyl's adopted son, Albert Stockbauer. She has had some success in locating other Pribyl nativities around Texas. In addition to the Stockbauer family's nativity, the institute will display a complete Pribyl nativity belonging to the Staha family of Hallettsville, two partial Pribyl sets and a two-dimensional nativity painting, all belonging to other Pribyl descendents.
The Institute of Texan Cultures is on the UTSA HemisFair Park Campus, 801 E. Durango Blvd., a short distance from the Alamo and the River Walk. Regular hours are 10 a.m.-5 p.m., Monday-Saturday; noon-5 p.m., Sunday.
Holiday hours are:
Admission is $8 for adults (ages 12-64); $7 for seniors (ages 65 and over); $6 for children (ages 3-11); free with membership, UTSA or Alamo Colleges identification.
For more information, call 210-458-2300 or visit the Institute of Texan Cultures Web site.

In KDE5 use "kstart plasmashell" to restart the plasmashell as a service instead of plasmashell &. If you use it that way it 's run as an independed service not connected to the current terminal session (meaning you can close the terminal without the process getting terminated). TLDR: KDE5 (in Terminal): killall plasmashell kstart plasmashell
In KDE 4, you can do: killall plasma-desktop #to stop it kstart plasma-desktop #to restart it In KDE 5 use: killall plasmashell #to stop it kstart plasmashell #to restart it
Well I didn't expect this to work (and it's not exactly what the question asks for) but pressing Alt+F2 and running: kwin --replace This reloads KDE's compositor and that seems to fix the flickering. I guess it's a factor into my particular issue.

As described in the official Kwin documentation, a good way to go would be to try this either on a running terminal application or on a virtual console (i.e.: Ctrl+Alt+F1), : DISPLAY=:0 kwin --replace
System Settings -> Window Behavior -> Window Behavior -> Active screen follows mouse:
Try changing the compositor back to OpenGL in Sytemsettings -> Hardware -> Display and Monitor -> Compositor
In the "windows behaviour" settings, you have to enable "Active screen follows mouse pointer". (approximate translation from French but I'm sure you'll find it). This way, by default, windows will open on the current screen. (except some rare specific apps like VLC which use the last used screen).
Try System Settings - Display and Monitor - Multiple Monitors. The setting Show Unmanaged Windows on allows you to select a display or use the display the mouse pointer is on. I had this problem but only when I first started a session, anything I ran would always initially open on the second screen (which is a TV and usually turned off) If you're having ...
After a serious bit of Googling I came across this post: The only purpose of this file is to be later in the link order than (nvidia's) libGL, thus being initialized by the dynamic linker before it, allowing it to set __GL_YIELD=NOTHING soon enough for libGL to notice it.

I had the same problem with 3.10 kernel, fglrx 13-8 beta, and kde 4.11.

kwin does have a DBUS interface, but it doesn't do what you're describing. To take a look at the calls that are available to you, run qdbusviewer (which be available in your distro's repository), choose the Session Bus tab, and search for kwin in the search box. From there, choose org.kde.KWin on the left panel, and on the right panel, you'l see KWin -> org....
Similar to Robin Green's answer, but this does not require a terminal window to be open already. Instead, specify the display in which to start kwin from tty1. Hence, Press Ctrl+Alt+F1 to access a terminal. Log in. Type killall kwin. Then, type in DISPLAY=:0 kwin. Press Ctrl+Alt+F7 to change back to your primary display.

I've been using Unity-2D with KWin for about two weeks now. In the login screen, choose Unity-2D as your session type. Install the kde-window-manager package to get kwin. Then fire up a terminal and run kwin --replace &!. You'll probably want the systemsettings and kde-config-gtk packages for configuration.
Press Ctrl+Alt+F1. Log in. Type killall kwin. Press Ctrl+Alt+F7. Quit all open applications until a terminal becomes visible. Hover the mouse over the terminal application. Type kwin &. What's that, no terminal application open? Tough - you'll just have to reboot.
I looked this up because I had an issue where I couldn't open any KDE settings menus, but I didn't really want to reboot or log out. I found that the best way to do it (in KDE 5 at least) is by using krunner (Alt+F2) to killall plasmashell then immediately afterwards, plasmashell. I tried doing it in a Konsole window, using killall plasmashell and then ...

The ability to show borders on maximized windows was removed from kwin in KDE 4.11. You can find more information about this decision in bug 299245.

So, this feature was added to the ...

I don't use hangouts, so I can't comment on the specifics, but there are alternative ways to match windows in the "Special Window Settings" (in English). If you use the window's menu to access this dialogue, it should automatically populate these fields. You can try matching by window class or window role, if either has a generic enough match. If the ...
I find I'm always having trouble with ksycoca5, and this seems to be the reason plasmashell gets in a strop, and also stops plasmashell restarting. To solve this I did: $ mv ~/.cache/ksycoca5* /tmp $ killall plasmashell buildksycoca5; kstart plasmashell

Editor's note: This story was modified after its original publication to clarify the timing of Section 508.
The Office of Management and Budget recently tasked agency CIOs with improving their agency's Section 508 standards.
Section 508 was added to the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 in 1986, then replaced with a new version in 1998. It requires agencies to purchase IT that is accessible to people with disabilities.
Under the new OMB directive, CIOs must:
OMB is bringing attention to the standards because of agencies' slow progress at instituting them.
"Implementation of Section 508 across agencies is not consistent, and a more comprehensive approach is needed to build and sustain an accessible federal technology environment," OMB wrote.

Best Summer Movies 2014 to see in Theatres
Transformer with Markie Mark - NO. There are only two movies this summer worth paying the extremely high prices in the theatre. Average cost is $11 per ticket and if you go IMAX or 3D that ticket price can go over $20 (and that's even the kids ticket).
The Stock Masters have scoured the internets and have it down to only TWO movies you need to see this summer. Everything else can be watched 9 to 12 months from now via Redbox, Amazon Prime or whatever. Here they are:
Andy Serkis is a complete badass, this a must see in the theatre. The movie is being praised by everyone, and I mean everyone. It's a win win. Now playing everywhere. A growing nation of genetically evolved apes led by Caesar is threatened by a band of human survivors of the devastating virus unleashed a decade earlier. They reach a fragile peace, but it proves short-lived, as both sides are brought to the brink of a war that will determine who will emerge as Earth's dominant species.
Marvel is going outside the box and it's going to be a home run. It's being held as the new Star Wars. A fresh franchise with great actors, characters, new worlds, humor, etc.

"When the world zigs, zag"
This philosophy was born out of the first print execution we ever produced back in 1982 to launch black Levi's. It became something of a model for our own business…and how we approach Client's problems always seeking to challenge the prevailing or conventional wisdom.
The philosophy has created moments in our own history when we decided to go against the grain of our industry. We were the first agency to become financially transparent. We were the first agency to create a micro network to serve global business. We were the first agency to recognise the need for channel planning to be at the heart of all creative development so we created a discipline called Engagement planning.
Engagement planning, not to be confused with media planning, is focused on understanding the consumer journey, bringing clarity to the roles different channels play in the marketing mix, identifying how brands can be built through interaction and participation, and most importantly using disruptive channel thinking to get to bigger ideas that deliver a step change in communication effectiveness.
At BBH, we believe in one central belief; that big, enduring ideas are the key to successful communications that create value for our Clients. It was true in 1982. It is even more true today. And in an increasingly complex and competitive world, it will be truer still tomorrow. So everything we do and all our structures support that single thought.

Most Helpful
It was really easy to make, but it was really sweet. Thanks!
Loved this. I used Pale Ale for the marination and thought the sugar and spices offset each other really well to give a slightly sweet flavor but with great depth. I wouldn't change a thing with this one!
Very Yummy! Juicy and tender! I used ribeyes and chuckeyes. I used a mild tasting microbrewed beer along with some garlic for the marinade, I let it soak for 24 hours. I used Montreal steak seasoning for the seasoned salt. I left the steaks out at room temp with the rub on for about 30 minutes. After grilling, I let the steaks rest for about 10 minutes. This is a keeper!

yeah ... and i know when they argued in the dugout in pittsburgh last year a lot of people were questioning wtf was going on with those two.but you have to give credit that dukes - at least on the surface - looks to have changed his attitude and is a more positive, obedient player. in every post game interview it sounds like he's crediting his teammates in key points of the game and praising his manager (he's been doing that up here and in all the broadcasts I listened to while he was in AAA).
I don't think Dibble, Carpenter, or Knight have anything against Strasburg as a person, I think they just hate Scott Boras and everything he represents. Strasburg is probably a good kid and I'm sure he'll be all smiles when he signs on Monday. Kasten saying that they offered 12 million was GREAT. Now, if Strasburg doesn't sign, the Nats are not at fault in the eyes of the public, and everything lies on Strasburg and Boras.
I hope it doesn't backfire. It's all on Strasburg. Does he want to be a National or not? We will find out what kind of person he is. If he doesn't sign for $12-15 million as sad as it would be it would be on the player.
12 million won't get it done
I'm finding this amazing as well. 12 million is, whether it's insane or not, a laughable offer 48 hours prior to the deadline for Strasburg. I've been thinking we would be literally blessed if Strasburg deemed $20-$25 million offer worth his signing and thus not going over to Japan and returning to the US a free agent. But $12m? Even $15m? A total joke given the reality of the situation and the player involved. Boras would physically stop Strasburg from signing any agreement that's less than double Prior's 2001 deal, if he had to put a gun to his head to do so. We don't get Strasburg for under $20m. Simple as that.Of course Kasten playing the press = they decided to end discussions two days early. They've kept a tight lip because they know making a big deal in the press will cause the deal to go up another $10m given Boras' history. He doesn't like to be embarrassed, and Kasten clearly did just that. Bottom line, Kasten's comments guarantee we're not signing Strasburg for any amount. They obviously have no interest in pissing off MLB by breaking the draft, and thus in trying to low ball Boras saw how far that would get them. So they started the PR campaign preemptively to save face after losing Crow and Strasburg back to back years and thus we're seeing comments 60 hours before the deadline. Comments that clearly are of a tone one would expect after a deadline in which they didn't sign Strasburg.
Go find a Steelers board.
Hope it's like that again next week. Being a Steeler fan has made being a Nats fan much easier.

Excellent 4.1 /5 from 122 reviews
The hotel was great, everyone is very attentive. We were there on three ocassions during a two week time. Shuttle to and from the airport is a plus. We're already planning our next stay at this location.
This is the fourth hotel we stayed at in Guadalajara and this was the best
It was so great! The staff is very nice! The food is great! The room was clean and perfect for family with kids!
We were very pleasantly surprised with the hotel, the staff was outstanding with excellent service, pleasant personalities, clean, very accommodating. An example that we wish to share-- we had made arrangements for a pickup at the Gdl. airport upon our return from the US. Juan, the driver phoned us early am to confirm our arrival time that day. Once we arrived - no driver, phoned the hotel, there was a mix up, the driver was there but was another couple on the same flight with the same first name, so he got them and left. Immediately the hotel dispatched another employee for our pickup and within 15 minutes arrived. Upon our arrival we were graciously greeted by the nite manager, totally apologizing for the mix up and with out even asking, arranged for sandwiches to be delivered to our room and comp-d our following breakfast- we definitely will be staying there again and very highly recommend.
It was great... My partner and my self we both felt very comfortable at the hotel... the service was excellent... on my next visit to guadalajara, I'll stay at this hotel for sure...
Is the description of this hotel not correct? Tell us

Marketplace Roundup
Published September 2, 2011
WEATHERING THE STORM: Atlanta Motor Speedway VP/Sales Greg Walter said that while the economy "has affected sports sponsorship sales in recent years," the track has been "able to weather the downturn." He noted that "more than 100 companies have marketing or sponsorship deals" with AMS in conjunction with the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series AdvoCare 500 on Sunday. The event's "biggest sponsor is AdvoCare," which signed a three-year contract in May "to succeed Emory Healthcare as the race's title sponsor." AdvoCare VP/Marketing Jan Wold said, "I just felt, instead of buying a bunch of TV commercials for one or two nights, this would get us more value." She said the company is "always trying to do something to build the brand, become a household name" (ATLANTA CONSTITUTION, 8/31).
3D PROJECTIONS: MEDIA POST's Karl Greenberg reports the Univ. of Texas is "launching a campaign promoting the university on the new Longhorn Network and on broadcasts of UT games, as well as at school events." The ads feature "footage of a video projection on UT Tower that spotlights famous alumni and uses 3D graphics to make the building look as if it is made of spinning blocks that fit together like puzzle pieces." The campaign, via GSD&M, Austin, and Klip Collective, "comprises five spots extending the university's 10-year-old 'What Starts Here Changes the World' tag." The first of the ads aired Aug. 26 during the launch of LHN. The spots will continue to "air in-game on stations like FSN, ABC and ESPN, the UT JumboTron, and online at www.UTexas.edu" (MEDIAPOST.com, 8/31).
BOBBLEHEAD TOUR: CABLEFAX DAILY notes Turner Broadcasting will bring its "MLB Postseason on TBS Bobblehead Tour" to eight cities this month "to hype postseason play, which begins on the net Sept. 30." Baseball fans "can get their photos taken with Postseason Pete, a 12-foot bobblehead statue decked out in the home teams' uniform" (CABLEFAX DAILY, 9/2).

Few U.S. institutions resemble today's prison system. Most Americans have little-to-no exposure to this quiet behemoth which has quadrupled its population since the 1980's, but for those who are exposed, the effects are dramatic. The system is wrecking families, hurting individuals, and costing our nation billions of dollars. We've seen some promising developments in the last year, but more Americans need to open our eyes to the dangerous path we've been headed down and push for continued reforms.
I've lived several years of my life in a small Midwest farming town that owes much of its continued existence to our American corrections system. It is surprisingly easy to forget in the busy day-to-day, but inmates make up roughly one third of the town's population and prison staff and guards compose another ten percent. It's doubtful that many of the retail businesses, restaurants, and hotels could exist without the business provided by prison guards and the visiting families of the imprisoned.
This situation is not unique – it's just one of many prison cities across the country. In total they add up to a system that hosts more than 2.3 million prisoners. If you combine this with the number of Americans on probation and parole, corrections systems in the U.S. are actively dealing with over 6.9 million people – that's one in 35 adults! And this number doesn't account for the many adults who have been through the system and have now come out on the other side.
While we seem to have gotten used to this mass incarceration, our rate is absurdly high when compared to other countries. The U.S. has 5% of the world's population, but houses 25% of the world's prisoners - our rate is the highest in the world.
So maybe there's something uniquely criminal about Americans? But our prison population wasn't nearly so high in the past. The incarceration rates jumped in the 80's with the increasing implementation of the war on drugs. Today's prison population is
But, some might respond, drug offenders broke the law – prison is their just deserts! Let's consider that for a moment. First, the prospects for the ex-con are disastrous. These are life-destroying punishments. The average federal drug offender will be sentenced to
Consider also the impact of massive prisons on the rest of America. States spent $50 billion on corrections in 2011 - an average of 7% of taxpayer general fund dollars went to these programs. Each inmate costs the public tens of thousands of dollars. Aren't there better, less expensive answers?
Thankfully there are some signs that we are moving in a better direction. Attorney General Eric Holder instructed federal prosecutors to under-charge lower level drug offenders in order to avoid triggering the mandatory minimum sentences that automatically send the convicted to prison. Holder is attempting to reduce the number of minor drug offenders (non-violent with few-to-no prior convictions) going to prison and improve their future prospects.
The White House has established new broader commutation criteria under which they are seeking requests from nonviolent federal prisoners with no gang connections who have already done ten years of time for nonviolent crimes, who were convicted under harsher penalties than those that exist today, and who have demonstrated good behavior.
Finally, and most encouragingly, after decades of skyrocketing prison populations, the U.S. Prison population has actually shrunk ever-so-slightly since 2009.
Unfortunately, there are also some significant threats to these positive reforms. First, consider communities like the one mentioned above: What happens to prison towns when their thousands of inmates and prison staff members are drastically reduced? Surely there will be a good number of towns and cities throughout the U.S. that will suffer if the prison population shrinks. Don't expect these voices to be silent - a $50 billion industry does not go gently into the night.
Second, and more disturbing, there is an effort to privatize prisons across the U.S. Groups like Corrections Corporation of America (CCA) have been building their own for-profit prisons and taking over existing state prisons. One particularly troubling trend is CCA's attempts to swing deals in which their takeover of a prison from a state is contingent on that state promising to keep the prison at over 90% of capacity. There are all manner of terrible incentives at work when you involve market interests in the doling out of just punishments. Establishing justice (which includes executing sentences) is one of the most fundamental roles of government - it should not abdicate this role to a private company.
What does the future hold for corrections in the U.S.? Things are looking hopeful for the first time in decades. The number of prisoners is beginning to creep downwards, people are seriously considering alternative approaches to our war on drugs, and all branches of the government seem to be oriented towards reducing our prison population. Maybe Washington actually will get something done on this front.
Or perhaps we will see an increase in the number of alternatives to imprisonment. Why not increase fines and mandate rehabilitation programs for drug users instead of sticking them in prison for five years? Or enact higher fines while reducing jail time for offenses like fraud? Maybe we can work towards real immigration reform that lowers the number of people in prison for immigration crimes? We can at least hope and cast our vote accordingly.
In the meantime, the corrections system is a significant chunk of our economy and needs to be on the radars of average Americans. There is a lot of money at play here, and there are plenty of people with financial interests in keeping large prisons stuffed full. Only consistent public pressure will keep government moving towards significant prison reforms.

For the past 26 years, Imperial Fez has delighted Buckhead Moroccan food lovers with festive, unique and exotic dining unlike any other Buckhead restaurant. Imperial Fez restaurant, with all its interior Moroccan grandeur, sits unobtrusively in the ground floor of an otherwise residential, crème-colored stucco building on Peachtree Road across from the South Buckhead shopping strip that houses Georgia Grille. Owners Rafih Benjelloun and his wife Rita proudly bestow Buckhead entertainment seekers with both the Imperial Fez Moroccan restaurant and the Ibiza Restaurant and Lounge, a sleek, tapas and hookah joint next door.
After leaving the car with valet, through a meek entrance Buckhead diners discover a dazzling Moroccan feast for the eyes inside the Imperial Fez restaurant. Once Buckhead removes their shoes and enters the dining area of this Moroccan restaurant, their eyes adjust to the dim amber lighting. Hues of red, blue and mustard pulsate from Moroccan rugs overlapping each other to cover every inch of the floor, and Moroccan tapestries of burgundy and glints of gold swathe the walls in equal measure. Framed artwork of Moroccan political figures hangs from these colorful walls, and formidable Moroccan lamps and stained glass lampshades accentuate the foreign flavor of this Moroccan restaurant. Strobe lights flicker to the time of music from distant lands as belly dancers who entertain nightly in sparkling attire sift through the shadowy, sultry interior. Diners from Buckhead and the world sit on pillow-covered, low benches to savor the Moroccan food at forty red-clothed, candlelit tables scattered intimately throughout this Buckhead restaurant.
Characterized by the cooking of fruits with meat, Moroccan food is also known for its spices. Buckhead diners in search of sheep, poultry and seafood steeped in the piquant and aromatic flavors of cumin, coriander, saffron and cinnamon find their palates rejoice in the Moroccan food served at the Imperial Fez restaurant. To properly indulge in the culture and cuisine at this Moroccan restaurant, Buckhead may order from the prix-fixe menu which includes two- to five-course dinners from thirty to sixty-five dollars a head. Servers in authentic Moroccan garb serve Buckhead spreads of Harrira soup, Moroccan breads, fekkas, and Moroccan salads to accompany savory dishes of Cornish hen, lamb, cous cous, salmon, and Berber vegetables. Hot mint tea, a rosewater hand bath and a jaunt into the Ameerah Imports market inside wrap up the Moroccan dining experience that the Imperial Fez restaurant achieves masterfully in Buckhead.
Not too many people in Buckhead and America in general are unfamiliar still with the Jason's Deli restaurant franchise. The successful deli style restaurant opens new locations consistently, with hundreds of Jason's Deli restaurants popping up throughout the nation. The Buckhead area is proud home to one Jason's Deli restaurant, and in the same venue as Buckhead Alterations and the Cost Plus World Market, in the Piedmont/Peachtree Crossing shopping center, is where Buckhead can dine on the delicious fare at this deli restaurant.
Jason's Deli on Piedmont Road offers the people of Buckhead a comprehensive menu for lunch or dinner. In this deli restaurant, which began its success back in 1972, Buckhead customers can enjoy a superbly clean restaurant and healthy meal.

The restaurant offers a plethora of seating for the influx of Buckhead professionals looking to eat a deli sandwich or to munch on their acclaimed salad bar. The walls of the deli restaurant are decorated with oversized black and white nostalgic American heritage photography, and the tables and booths are always kept clean and ready for the next Buckhead diner to enjoy a meal.
Jason's Deli offers five varieties of pre-made salads or ten kinds of specialty deli sandwiches. Lots of hungry deli lovers choose to eat at the salad bar, which is relentlessly tidied and restocked by the staff at Jason's Deli. Buckhead traditionalists can step up to the deli counter at the Jason's Deli restaurant and special-order their own kind of sandwich from ten kinds of deli-style meats, eight breads, and thirteen types of sandwich dressings.
In addition to standard deli fare, the Jason's Deli restaurant also offers Buckhead clients po' boys, wraps, paninis and pasta dishes. For the vegetarians of Buckhead, Jason's Deli carefully created nine different deli dishes they can enjoy from the restaurant without worry that some ingredient may contain meat products.

When Buckhead professionals need to offer a meal to business clients over meetings, Jason's Deli can provide them with a diversity of healthy, affordable deli-style menu items.

In a charming cottage that looks plucked from a field of daisies and placed on East Paces Ferry Road in Buckhead, Antica Posta delights the hungry Tuscan food-loving customers of Buckhead with its picturesque and intimate environment as well as its delicious authentic Northern Italian food. Antica Posta sits modestly, a hidden treasure, beside the Buckhead Range Rover dealership and the Toby House Antique store, in a three-story, mustard-colored building with white trim. A small clay-tiled terrace out front of this Tuscan restaurant is lined with large planters of evergreens and dainty, purple flowers.
After complimentary valet service, Buckhead customers seeking to dine on the delicious, traditional Italian cuisine served at this Tuscan restaurant and bar, enter first into a lounge room. Inside this mustard faux-finished room, the second-story ceiling is striped with raw wood support beams and amplifies the acoustics of Italian music, swing oldies and a happy, buzzing Buckhead dinner crowd dressed in business-casual attire. In this room, a cherry-wood bar for a dozen Buckhead drinkers seated in cushioned barstool dons rows of wines, ivy flower pots and Bose sound system speakers at the Antica Posta restaurant. White-clothed tables are set with blue glasses and vases holding fresh, colorful flowers. Leather tall back seats scatter color across the lounge in hues of chocolate, rust and white. Plenty of windows open on to a tree-lined view of Buckhead outside the restaurant.
At the entrance of the Antica Posta Tuscan restaurant, a warm hostess welcomes customers and seats them to one of eighty tables in the rust-colored main dining room with a fireplace, or at another fifty downstairs or thirty upstairs in the various nooks that offer Buckhead private dining rooms at the Antica Posta restaurant. Framed photography of sensual Raquel Welch portraits, lithographs of Italian cityscapes and a collection of photos of owner Marco Betti in his youth decorate the walls of this quaint Tuscan restaurant in Buckhead. Rustic chandeliers hang from ceilings with exposed support beams while Buckhead feasts on plates of sensible, scrumptious Tuscan food at dinner during the week or Saturday at lunch in Antica Posta.
Buckhead customers choose from ten Italian antipasti dishes from the salmon, sea bass and pesto carpaccio dish that represents the tri-colored flag of Italy to seared sea scallops on a chick pea puree. The attentive, knowledgable staff can recommend wines from a substantial list to couple perfectly with the tasty main course Tuscan dishes of fresh fish, juicy meats, pasta, seasonal vegetables, and savory spices that come on steamy plates to Buckhead Tuscan cuisine seekers in Antica Posta. Save room for the panna cotta with wild berry sauce or any of the other scrumptious desserts and nightcaps offered at Antica Posta, the most glorious, little Italian food jewel in Buckhead.
Pretty mediocre. Not my first choice, not my last choice.
Super cheap wells. Decent bar food for a decent price. Friendly staff. Watch sports, play darts, or just kick it on the patio.
This is a pretty chill LGBT pub. Crowd is laid back and always friendly hence the name. Not overly populated by hipsters yet so the drinks are still super cheap. I'm not talking PBR for $2 more like Long Islands for under $4. They have a jukebox, snacks, and clean bathrooms. Great location. The Drunken Unicorn and MJQ's are both located underneath. They have their own parking area. Only downside is how smokey this place gets.
This is very useful information shared here. Thank you for sharing it.
overpriced for bar food.
Plays are obsolete. Everybody wants to be in the movies -- you've got something to show for it afterwards. That said, the place is well-run. Acting classes, a schedule, etc. Checked out the acting class, didn't think much of it. This obese gay guy with a nasty attitude who seem to think his meaningless exercises have something to do with acting -- they don't.
I guess... Gone are the days of smoke filled Jazz Clubs packed with eclectic low key anti establishment pot heads zoning out.
The service is slow. The food is weird. But the Jazz?
The Jazz is on point.
My advice is get rid of the valet parking($10) The reservations ($5) per person, and get a new menu... You can keep the names but do change the cuisine...
If you have the $ and the patience you will be rewarded with some pretty good live Jazz...
The restaurant is NOT open for lunch! I showed up last week looking to eat lunch and saw noone in the building. So I went back later that night with friends. I must say the food was delightful. I spoke with a young woman named Marian who said she was the sous chef and a bartender named Madelyn. Madelyn (sp?) seemed very happy to be there, with a great smile and a truly wonderful attitude. Chef Marian was happy and talkative and welcoming. She had a great deal of knowledge of her craft. We talked food for some time. She and the other chef, whom I only got to meet briefly touched every table in the small restaurant between popping into the kitchen to cook and deliver meals to the people waiting. It was a true pleasure to speak with Marian and Maadelyn. On the other hand, it was not a true pleasure to speak with the general manager, Hong (I think) who seemed to want to have nothing to do with his guests. After both the lovely bartender and the chef asked him to come over to me to speak to me, he finally did come from the table in the corner where he was holding court. He smiled at me and looked through me almost, as if I wasn't there. When I asked him questions, he never answered anything directly, rather he danced around the subject and offered to buy me a drink. The place will never make money in this way. When I mentioned to him that the website said they were open for lunch, but they weren't he just smiled, never answered me directly. I asked when they would be open for lunches and he said December 1st. I also asked about Sunday hours and he told me that there would be a Sunday brunch in December. So, out of curiousity, I went back on Saturday, December 1 and low and behold, noone was there... I live accross the street, so it takes no effort to walk over. I returned about 1130 on Sunday and again, noone was there... No brunch? So, I suggest you avoid dealing with Hong alltogether and ask specifically to speak to one of the Chefs. Outside of the manager, it was a very good experience. I will go back if Marian or Madelyn are there, for sure.
I just had my first experience at Stir It Up. I must admit I was not expecting the atmosphere. I was pleasantly surprised. In addition, the waiter was very nice and helpful with assisting us with making a decision. He showed knowledge of the food and how it was prepared (A+). I had the stewed oxtail; and let me just say I wanted to go back there and "slap the cook". In case you don't know that's a very high compliment. My co-worker had the jerk chicken which was very tasty as well. My negative take-aways are (1) the menu should be expanded and (2) they charge you for refills. I know times are hard but who charges for refills on sweet tea?
Took my girlfriend for her birthday and she loved it. We've been to Agatha's and this was different. We liked that "the mob" has this party atmosphere. My girlfriend actually recognized a few of the actors. One of them was on A&E last month. I would say its really a good place to go celebrate. Foods really good and plenty of it we were stuffed. A little noisy at times but it was sold out and people were really partying. I am taking my girlfriend back for the Valentines Day Show. I would say we probably will do this show 2 or 3 times a year if they keep changing it up.
Noni's is also a great place for after work cocktails and a really tasty dinner and don't overlook the party scene on Saturday nights where hipsters from nearby East Atlanta, Old Fourth Ward and Inman Park dance the night away.
If it's $10 all you can eat and $5 all you can drink, your tummy is stuffed to the rim, and your bladder is about to explode. How else are you going to spend $20 per person?
Decent pizza and Italian dishes and one of the few places that reliably delivers around East Point. Open late and offers a pretty wide selection including pizzas, stromboli, calzones, salads, wings, fish, shrimp, and a few desserts. Not great, but not bad at all in my experience.
Pizza = good
Service = terrible
Please don't let sororistitutes take over your server pool, they are apathetic.
The sushi is pretty good but the service can be terrible! We were literally turned away at the door one day for lunch when there were plenty of tables. They only had one waiter working.
I agree, way over ratted. The guys in the back are rude. When I was there last week, our pizza came out wrong and we were blamed for not speaking up when they ran around with our pizza which was not true. The pizza is good, don't get me wrong. But I refuse to spend my money at a place that refuses to recognize the customer and appreciation of the customer.
Good soup small portion.
