Beautiful place and very accommodating and knowledgeable!
Haven't been to this place in many years but it's still the same great atmosphere and the food was better than I remember. I will caution you though, this place is definitely on the upper end of a $$ than the single $ rating it advertises.
Food was incredible. The prices ranged from a $10 to $32 for a steak. I got the pan blacken scallops. It was probably the best meal I've had since I was diagnosed with Celiacs. My wife who is not gluten free was jealous of my meal but loved her burger. We have a high energy three year old and the staff was very accommodating. All in all a very pleasant experience.
They'll make you a gf grilled cheese even though it's no longer on the menu. The lobster mac and cheese (or plain) is so yummy! Lots of lunch/dinner options, usually a dessert or two for gf, friendly staff, fun atmosphere with live music sometimes.
Good meal! Separate GF menu that included Macaroni and Cheese, osso bucco and some steaks, chicken, and seafood. Tasty and worth the visit.
The waitstaff is knowledgeable and helpful. The chef eats gluten free. meals were $10 to $30 per plate; my entire bill was $15.
I don't know who gave this a 1$ amount but we had 2 mushroom burgers, no fries-chips, water to drink and it came to $32.00 (with tip). That is high for a burger.
Decent GF menu. Service was kinda slow and my good was way too salty.
This is by far my favorite gluten free restaurant in the area. They are extremely knowledgeable and very prompt.
Loved all the GF options!! Great place.. Very knowledgeable staff.
Great food with lots if options. Great knowledgable service and great atmosphere. I know. That's a lot of greats. This place deserves it. It was, dare I say, GREAT! :)
I absolutely love this restaurant, it is by far one of my favorite restaurants. The wait staff is great and the menu is always changing.
Separate GF menu helps wait staff recognize your needs. Portion sizes are large, and they have GF bread for sandwiches and GF dessert options. I already picked out what I will have for dinner when I return!
great gf menu. lots of options, including dessert!
Love going here. The hostess actually asks if anyone in the party needs a gf menu before you're seated! That never happens. The gf menu is great. I love the mac&cheese and cuban sandwich on Udi's bread. They offer so many gf options it's hard to choose.

Thinking about it as best I can not being any form of expert but a good observer then I do feel,"rather than think," that we might be experiencing the calm before the storms that are to come in the next few seasons?
So many systems have formed only to be neutralised by sheer or bad alignments to lack for a better word. With a bit of bad luck we could have be moaning about disasters right now; not boredom.
"Keeper," said months ago this would be a season to remember! not that I remember his exact words but I do think that we should count ourselves lucky that we got this far and nothing went the way it could have done.
Our thoughts go out out to all that continue to suffer in the Southern US from droughts and we wish that you should soon get some relife.

I had the good fortune of landing a really fun project with the Tarsus Group: vintage magician illustrations for the 2013 Label Expo! There's a bunch of these, but the first one went live and is cleared to show!
The process on this one was fun as I decided to work in colors as opposed to my usual rough pencil-only sketches. They had very specific requirements for the pose of the magician and ultimately chose the straight on view.

Securitization Skin-in-the-Game Rules Permit Hedging Stakes
A U.S. government proposal requiring bond issuers or lenders to keep stakes in securitized loans allows the companies to offload some of the retained risk, even as portions of the draft rules prohibit hedging.
Companies packaging loans and leases into bonds will be barred from buying default protection tied to the "particular" asset-backed securities in which they must hold slices, according to the proposal, released for public comment yesterday by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. and Federal Reserve.
Regulators said the rule, designed to curb dangerous lending, permits other hedging tactics, potentially reducing how much the regulation will depress the flow of credit. Congress mandated last year that agencies create the provisions, reflecting a view that a lack of skin in the game among lenders and bond issuers helped fuel the shoddy mortgages that sparked collapses in housing and financial markets.
"That the institutions can do a variety of hedging almost negates all the advantages," said Anthony Sanders, a professor of real estate finance at George Mason University in Fairfax, Virginia, and former head of mortgage-bond research at Deutsche Bank AG. "Risk-retention may not make a lick of difference if the bank in question can hedge out most of the risk."
Companies will be able to use derivatives and other hedging instruments tied to "overall market movements," such as in currencies, home prices or a "broad category of asset-backed securities," according to the proposal. They could also buy default protection on "similar assets originated and securitized by other sponsors."
Under the rule, firms could purchase credit-default swaps referencing indexes of bonds that include the ones they keep parts of as long as classes of their securitizations represent no more than 20 percent of the benchmark, according to the draft. That could include so-called ABX indexes tied to subprime mortgages, regulators said.
Credit-default swaps on structured-finance securities offer payments if the debt isn't repaid on schedule, in return for regular insurance-like premiums.
Last year's Dodd-Frank financial overhaul law directed regulators to write the rule, saying the agencies should "prohibit a securitizer from directly or indirectly hedging or otherwise transferring the credit risk that the securitizer is required to retain." Issuers must generally retain at least 5 percent of risk, according to the rules.
'Tie the Hands'
It would be misguided for regulators to "tie the hands" of individual banks that decide they want to shed risk after building up sizable amounts of securitization stakes, said Clifford Rossi, a former senior risk officer at Countrywide Financial Corp., Washington Mutual Inc. and Citigroup Inc.
"At the same time, if every institution takes this view, then you solve for nothing in trying to shut down systemic risks from building up," said Rossi, now executive-in-residence at the University of Maryland's Center for Financial Policy in College Park.
Before the market for bonds backed by riskier U.S. home loans shut in 2008, banks including Goldman Sachs Group Inc. and Deutsche Bank bought protection in the credit-default swap market even as they sold new mortgage-linked securities. That helped offset later losses from debt held on their balance sheets, the companies have said.
Merrill Lynch & Co., UBS AG and Citigroup were among banks whose hedges against defaults on specific mortgage-tied securities failed during the crisis as the creditworthiness of the bond insurers providing protection collapsed.
Bear Stearns, Goldman
Some investment banks hedged in equity markets as the crisis grew. In late 2007, Bear Stearns Cos. bet against the shares of banks that bought default protection from Ambac Assurance Corp., the debt guarantor said this year in a lawsuit, citing internal e-mails. A Goldman Sachs trader that year also recommended his firm wager against Bear Stearns's shares, according to e-mails cited at a Senate hearing last year.
Yesterday's proposal includes risk-retention exemptions for certain high-quality residential mortgages, as well as for commercial-mortgage securitizations in which a third-party firm buys the riskiest slices after reviewing the loans. Hedging rules for those commercial-mortgage investors, known as B-piece buyers, are similar to the regulations intended for banks and issuers.
Hedging Bets
In one period before defaults soared, more than half the buyers of the riskiest slices of collateralized debt obligations used to repackage home-loan securities paired those purchases with other wagers that mortgages would default, according to the final report of the Financial Crisis Inquiry Commission.
Purchasers of the riskiest portions of mortgage bonds that weren't placed into CDOs also often entered into "short" bets against home-loan debt, the panel said. The buyers of these slices had traditionally worked to monitor the credit risk of the deals, so "it was no longer clear who -- if anyone -- had that incentive," the FCIC said.
The type of hedging allowed by yesterday's proposal would encourage issuers to make loans in their deals better than those of competitors, said Dan Castro, head of structured finance strategy at BTIG LLC in New York. Higher-quality debt would outperform hedges tied to the broader market in either good times or bad, he said.
"That's just the way the math works," Castro said.

City Greg Nickels Cares What People Think. Just Not This Time.
posted by October 16 at 13:11 PMon
Mayor Nickels told the Seattle Times today that anything less than a cut-and-cover tunnel replacement for the Alaskan Way Viaduct would be "unacceptable." His statements came in response to a new Times poll showing that voters overwhelmingly support rebuilding the viaduct, by a margin of two to one.
As Stranger and Slog readers know, I'm no supporter of rebuilding the viaduct. However, isn't this the same mayor who called vociferously for a vote on the monorail (money quote: "Give the voters a say in this matter"), and then supported killing the project after it lost its fifth and final vote? The people have spoken on the viaduct too, but Nickels only listens when he likes what they're saying.

I think he deserves it as much as the next person. Although I've never been sure it should be called 'Personality' ever since Stephen Hendry won it a few years back.
Well said, It is a nonsense to suggest this about the majority of people in sport, There are very few who come accross with an real PERSONALITY. A far better title might be sports person or for those older politically incorrect individuals like myself sportsman or sportswoman of the year. Monty as with anyone who represents this country and who does well should receive our approbation and in the time honoured way of Rugby players and Cricketers it should be enough to receeive a quiet pat on the back and a well done. Sadly this seems insufficient in this age when everything has to be hyped to the level of superlatives. But then I suppose I'm just an old fart.

SWAT: Target Liberty PSP
- Publisher: Sierra Entertainment
- Release Date: Oct 16, 2007
- Critic score
- Publication
- By date
There's certainly room for a tactical isometric shooter, but that game is going to have to be at least half as good as the high water mark set by Killzone: Liberation, and this game doesn't even come close.
Regardless of whether or not it was a good idea to make SWAT: Target Liberty for the PSP, it's quite a poor game either way.
Target Liberty is far from actual standards on Sony's handheld... It's a shame that a franchise like SWAT wasn't worthy of more thought. It's short, unappealing and monotonous.
There's not much to like about SWAT: Target Liberty. The squad-based mechanic is imbalanced. The levelling-up and weapon selection systems don't have significant effects on how things play out. The plot is silly, the cut-scenes are rubbish and everything's so small it makes your eyes hurt.
Playing against a pal or three isn't truly any less repetitive and tiresome than the endless sequence of door breaches and fire-and-forget gun battles that define the single-player experience, but it's at least different enough to add some middling interest to a game with little in reserve.
Playstation: The Official Magazine (US)Also, the presentation is a mix of cheesy music, mediocre pre-rendered cutscenes, better in-game cutscenes, and bad voiceovers. [Holiday 2007, p.78]
Playstation Official Magazine UKLacking the immediacy and fun of Killzone Liberation, this feels criminally outdated. [Christmas 2007, p.109]
This is a below average, clunky game that I'm knocking an extra few bonus points off of for the sheer stupidity and laziness of the near-bordering-on-racial-profiling plot.
Target Liberty is a game so clunky, dated and downright unlovable that between its miserable graphics, woeful presentation and tedious gameplay it feels more like a late-90s budget PC release than a premium PSP game with a price-tag to match, and playing it is as pointless and unrewarding an enterprise as you're likely to get for £30.
Target Liberty will only serve to frustrate even the most die hard of tactical shooter fans.
This game is quite clearly meant to be a celebration of how "kick-ass" the SWAT teams are, and will probably provide a smattering of enjoyment for the more jingoistic out there. But it really has nothing to offer anyone else - it's just a poor version of Killzone on the PSP. Purchase at your own risk.

Tom Cruise has been practically shouting from the rooftops about his love for his pregnant fiancée, Katie Holmes. But when their much-anticipated baby is born, the superstar dad probably won't say a word.
Cruise, a longtime Scientologist who introduced Holmes to the faith, is likely to follow Scientology's practice of quiet birth. Followers believe the absence of talk and other noise in the delivery room is more healthful for mother and baby.
No one's saying publicly where baby Cruise will enter the world, but if it is at the actor's Beverly Hills home then noise control might prove a challenge. Buzzing paparazzi are already camped aside the property.
With the little one expected soon, tabloids and gossip Web sites have been rife with chatter about silent birth, spawning much speculation about what it is and isn't.
Some are sure it means the mother can't make a peep during childbirth - forget the popular image of a chaotic hospital-room scene with a laboring woman spewing invectives. Others have claimed silence must be maintained for a full week after the baby is born and that Scientology opposes medical exams for newborns.
According to the tenets of Scientology, known as "Dianetics," words - even loving ones - spoken during birth and other painful times are recorded by the "reactive mind," or subconscious. Those memories, adherents feel, can eventually trigger problems for mother and child.
What the doctrine doesn't say is that laboring moms can't make some noise during delivery.
"We're not going for absolute silence," said self-professed "Scientology mom" Michelle Seward. "If a sound is made, that's OK."
After years studying the faith, established in 1950 by fiction writer L. Ron Hubbard, Seward went the silent route for the birth of her son, Sage, five years ago.
Seward drew up a birth plan and discussed her desire for a wordless delivery with her doctor.
In the hospital delivery room, she used hand signals to communicate with her husband and mother. A nurse tapped her on the shoulder to tell her it was time to push. When a complication arose after 30 hours of labor, the doctor whispered to Seward that she would need an epidural.
"I had a happy, calm baby," she said. "I know it's because of the way I delivered him."
Actress Anne Archer, a Scientologist for 30 years, called the recent speculation about silent birth "ridiculous."
"We just want to keep the environment as calm, quiet and loving as possible," she said. "Any culture in the world would understand that and any woman who's given birth would understand that."

Portland, Oregon's A((wake)) is a progressive hard rock band making waves across the Pacific Northwest. Originally formed as a three piece instrumental post-rock group, Cameron Taylor, Ian Engblom and Brian Lawson recorded what would be A((wake))'s first demo. Embracing the influential styles of bands like Isis and Mastodon, "The Crescent" EP was released in 2005 and was immediately followed by numerous live performances throughout the I-5 corridor. Their energetic live show, coupled with the trio's dynamic and hard hitting sound, quickly gained them momentum in the Northwest music scene.
Following the success of "The Crescent", A((wake)) released "Northern Lights" in 2008. The threesome's second EP showcased a more aggressive and complete sound that was well received by fans and music critics alike. The release was supported by more live performances throughout the Northwest, local radio airplay and expansion of the band's reach overseas. However, "Northern Lights" would signal the end of the band's instrumental identity, as vocalist and keyboardist Ben Jackson joined A((wake)) in 2009.
With his vocal influences rooted in the echoes of Mike Patton, Tom Waits, Layne Staley and Frank Black, the addition of Jackson to the group's ranks brought an influx of creativity and originality that shaped the band's new identity. The eclectic mix of Jackson's vocal styles, combined with his cerebral lyrics, gave the lineup the final piece to form the group's current energizing and refreshing trend.
Now, A((wake)) has released their first full length album with Jackson at the helm. Self-produced with longtime friend and engineer Jeanot Lewis-Rolland, the band's self-titled debut is a concept record which blends diverse guitar work, percussion, and soaring vocals into a contiguous set of rock movements which are sure to make rock listeners beg (and weep) for more. Covering such themes as the struggles of self-identity, navigation through a estranged modern world and the links formed between humans and their environment, A((wake))'s new album will continue to fuel the band's momentum and drive them to the crest of the Northwest rock scene.
