Black Box offers a multitude of scalable video solutions to meet our customer's needs. We recently engineered, furnished, installed, tested, and commissioned a Cisco Data, Audio Visual (A/V), and Voice solution for the new U.S. Army Europe (USREUR) Mission Command Center (MCC), located at Gen. Lucius D. Clay Kaserne, U.S. Army Airfield in Wiesbaden, Germany (WAAF). Our services included data (Layer 2/3) switching, full Unified Communications (UC) services, Video Teleconferencing (VTC), and a robust Audio/Visual (A/V) suite of products and services to allow for briefings, training, and real-time operational awareness monitoring from the Consolidated Operations Intelligence Center (COIC) and other video walls and conference rooms. The MCC is now equipped with a fully Joint Interoperability Test Command (JITC) certified end-to-end solution across the data, UC, and VTC networks.
The Black Box team implemented a Cisco DMP 4400G A/V Solution for the Command Control Communications Computer for Intelligences (C4I) system at the MCC to offer features such as sound reinforcement/audio playback systems with high fidelity audio, expandable audio digital signal processors (DSPs), IR microphone systems with lapel microphones and 74 push-to-talk systems (at podiums and tables), HD video displays, computer video from multiple networks, and video conferencing capabilities. The A/V equipment is industrial grade, to operate on a 24x7x365 basis and meet functional requirements such as tele-presence and large-scale conferencing needs. The Video Teleconferencing capability supports up to 130 people in the Combined Operations Intelligence Center (COIC) Knowledge Wall area; providing A/V essential support infrastructure and equipment such as DVDs, cameras, dual screen VTC units, and a computer and laptop video to allow for presentations on 48 70" LED/LCDs. To ensure no loss of service, we installed eight (8) back-up VTC units to the server in the COIC.
The COIC Knowledge Wall at MCC was also equipped with one (1) VTC Market Central A/B switch, which allows users to classify conferences as "classified" or "unclassified" and ensures classification integrity is maintained while in use; and discrete RS232 A/V control ports (IP based) with touch panel graphical user interfaces (GUIs), which allows instructors/presenters to easily operate all A/V equipment within the COIC, including camera control, audio source selection and volume control, set-top box selection and channel selection, Blu-ray disc selection, transport control, and lighting control.
Further A/V implementations carried out as additional Options to the baseline above, included EFITC teleconferencing capabilities to support up to 30 conference attendees in the War Room, 20 attendees for a Large Conference Room, 12 attendees for a Medium Conference Room, and eight (8) attendees for a Small conference room. Each conference area included the same infrastructure as the NOIC Knowledge Wall including the VTC Market Central A/B Switch, RS232 A/V control port, and all A/V essential equipment including DVDs, Cameras, dual screen VTC units, and 70" LED/LCDs.

Haskell Platform
From HaskellWiki
The Haskell Platform (HP) is the name of the blessed, core library suite for Haskell. By taking the best libraries from the more than 1200 libraries of Hackage, it provides a comprehensive, stable and mature base for Haskell projects to work from.
See the Platform Issue Tracker for further information.
1 Status
The platform is specified via a Cabal file:
- The Haskell Platform 2009.0.0 (alpha)
The initial release targets:
- ghc-6.10.2
- Classic Extra Libs
- haddock, happy and alex
- cabal-install and its dependencies.
2 Distributions
Distros that support the Haskell Platform
System | Status |
Arch | To be constructed with cabal2arch |
Debian | |
Fedora | |
Gentoo | Available in the gentoo haskell overlay, large parts in portage |
Nix(OS) | Metapackage available for testing in Nixpkgs |
Ubuntu | |
Generic Unix Installer | |
Windows Installer | |
OSX Installer |
3 Volunteers needed!
We are calling for volunteers for an action group. We need volunteers to take charge of various platforms and to manage the overall release. We would like to release a beta at the upcoming Haskell Hackathon in Utrecht (April 17-19). However this will only happen if people volunteer to help build distributions for different platforms.
In particular we need:
- Release manager / coordinator
- Website with downloads and release notes
- Someone in charge of each platform:
- Windows installer
- OSX installer
- Generic Unix source tarball
- Distribution packages: debian, fedora, gentoo, arch, BSD* etc
The person in charge of each platform is responsible for building a appropriate native packages / installer and coordinating the effort to test that the stuff installs and works ok.
If no one volunteers, we simply won't have an Haskell Platform release for that platform.
Please join the mailing list and volunteer!
4 Resources
- Issue tracker and dev wiki
- Darcs repository: contains the meta-package and scripts for the generic unix tarball
- Mailing list
- IRC channel: #ghc @ freenode.org
- Download statistics for Haskell Packages
5 Documentation
- The Haskell Platform Proposal for the 2008 Haskell Symposium
- Slides from the Haskell Platform talk
- Haskell Platform discussion
- Bryan O'Sullivan's writeup of the future of Haskell discussion
- A discussion took place in June and July 2008 about the direction of the HLP.
- More occurred during the #ghc meeting
5.1 Quality Control
Inclusion or exclusion in the platform will be driven by metrics, objective measurements we can extract from code. Determining appropriate metrics is a milestone.
- cabal-installable libraries with haddocks.
- packages should follow the Package versioning policy
- The set of HP packages + core libs must be closed. In other words, all haskell dependencies must be from within the HP packages or core libs. Dependencies on C libs can be external.
- All packages in a particular HP version must have a consistent install plan.
That means only one version of each package and all dependencies on packages must be satisfied by the version in the HP package set.
There is code in cabal-install to check the last two requirements.
Other possible ideas for quality standards we might want to require:
- Uses base library types, to force API standardisation
- exposed module names must follow the hierarchical module name convention, meaning they must be in an appropriate place in the module namespace. In particular, no clash of module names should occur within the HP.
5.2 Other heuristics
Packages set for inclusion should:
- Have a maintainer
- Have a bug tracker
- Use the correct versioning
- Build with cabal
- Work on all arches.
Further goals:
- -Wall clean
- 100% coverage
- Have real world use.
- Answer a notable set of build dependencies.
- Have a declared correctness test suite.
- Have a declared performance test suite.
- BSD licensed
6 Distribution format
- Source distribution
- .tar.gz bundle compatible with extra-libs
- Windows Installed
- Native distro packages
The HP will be the first meta-package on hackage, that depends on the platform library set. With this,
cabal install haskell-platform
will be possible.
7 Version policy
- odd major numbers indicate unstable branches
- minor numbers indicate bug fixes only, no API changes.
- 2008.0.0 -- first biannual major stable release
- 2008.0.1 -- minor release, bug fix only
- 2008.1 -- unstable branch leading to next major release
- 2008.2.0 -- second annual major release, API changes
- 2008.2.1 -- bug fixes
- 2008.3 -- unstable branch of 2008
- 2009.0.0 -- first release in 2009.
Additionally, if a library is accepted into the platform, it is suggested its version number be lifted to 1.0, if not already at 1.0.
8 Licenses
The initial release is expected to include only BSD3 licensed software.
9 Programs
The platform includes programs, such as haddock or cabal-install. These aren't nicely tracked from the cabal meta package yet.
10 Build system
Two ways to build the bundle:
- generate a sh script from the .cabal file
Or, build cabal-install, have the components of the platform as a mini, local hackage archive, and then ask cabal install to satisfy and install the dependencies from the platform meta-cabal file.

Thursday tops Taking Back Sunday in Anaheim
A strange tension filled the air when Taking Back Sunday performed the first of two sold-out shows at the Mouse House on Tuesday. Yet it wasn't completely apparent until night's end, when Adam Lazzara (pictured) jumped atop the venue's bar and stayed there way too long -- prompting irritated guitarist Eddie Reyes to flip the bird in that direction.
"I feel like I'm in a Coyote Ugly video," Lazzara said. (Coincidentally, LeAnn Rimes, who did exactly that for her video "Can't Fight the Moonlight," also appears at the O.C. venue this week.)
Just two weeks into the current tour, the 29-year-old singer appeared tired at times and his vocals were often frayed, muffled or weak (though there were no obvious audio problems). He continually hovered near the dark front corners of the stage while awkwardly crouching down.
Since the early 2000s, Lazzara has been among post-hardcore music's most dynamic frontmen. Having seen the New York group live more than a half dozen times -- including a memorable July '06 gig at Long Beach Arena, captured on the Louder Now: Part Two DVD+CD -- I can attest to how powerful they can be in concert. (Granted, former members Fred Mascherino and bassist Matt Rubano contributed to that high energy level.)
Last year, singer/guitarist John Nolan and bassist Shaun Cooper -- both of whom played on the popular, gold-certified 2002 effort Tell All Your Friends but then exited acrimoniously -- returned to the fold after seven years away. They helped record the new fifth self-titled album, which arrived at retailers this week. Produced by Eric Valentine, it adeptly ups the pop-oriented quotient without sacrificing their aggressive roots.
In Anaheim, a barefoot Lazzara conversed with the crowd; his fellow musicians (especially drummer Mark O'Connell) and an auxiliary singer/guitarist put on a fierce sonic display. Prime examples included hard-charging opener "El Paso," the menacing "Error: Operator" and "Spin."
Having Nolan and Cooper finally back to reprise their original roles on the Tell All Your Friends songs definitely elevated that material to new heights. Much of it cropped up during the 90-minute concert, more so than any other TBS album. On the flip side, Nolan's counterpoint vocal/screams didn't hold a candle to Mascherino's Louder Now and Where You Want to Be contributions. (Case in point: "A Decade Under the Influence.")
Overall, it was an erratic set -- and following opening turns from New Regime and the Color Revolt, longtime New Jersey hardcore act Thursday (yes, another band with a "day of the week" moniker) upstaged the headliner.
Veterans of the Vans Warped Tour, where I've seen them kill a few times, Thursday drew a good chunk of Tuesday night's crowd, who anxiously chanted for the group's immediate arrival and responded overwhelmingly to each song. Though less commercially successful than Taking Back Sunday, the sextet predates them by a few years and continues to have a huge fan base.
Latest Epitaph Records album No Devolución, released a few months ago, is their best to date and finds the musicians re-teaming with producer Dave Fridmann (the Flaming Lips, Mercury Rev). Wisely downplaying any screamo elements, the dreamier, more atmospheric sound (still pierced by guttural yelps every so often) is a welcome change.
Its well-executed 45-minute set featured thought-provoking projections on a screen (black-and-white instructional medical and atomic bomb films, Soviet cartoons from the '50s) and an ample sampling of the new songs, which all came off mesmerizing. For awhile, I was riveted to drummer Tucker Rule, who banged on an unorthodox kit. Thursday left fans wanting more.
Setlists: Taking Back Sunday and Thursday at House of Blues Anaheim, June 28, 2011
TBS: El Paso / MakeDamnSure / Bike Scene / Liar (It Takes One to Know One) / One-Eighty by Summer / Error:Operator / Faith (When I Let You Down) / Timberwolves at New Jersey / Existentialism on Prom Night / What's It Feel Like to Be a Ghost / A Decade Under the Influence / Everything Must Go / Set Phasers to Stun / Best Places to Be a Mom / You're So Last Summer / Spin / This Is All Now / Great Romances of the 21st Century / There's No 'I' in Team / Cute Without the 'E' (Cut from the Team)
Thursday: Fast to the End / Counting 5-4-3-2-1 / Magnets Caught in a Metal Heart / Understanding in a Car Crash / No Answers / Cross Out the Eyes / Sparks Against the Sun / Jet Black New Year / Turnpike Divide
The bands return to House of Blues Anaheim tonight, then head to the venue's West Hollywood location on Friday. New Regime goes on promptly at 6:30 p.m. All tickets are sold out.

The U.S. Department of Labor's Administrative Review Board has found that the Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) lacks jurisdiction over Florida Hospital of Orlando, a TRICARE health services provider, based on the 2011 National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA). OFCCP v. Florida Hospital of Orlando (FHO), DOL ARB, No. 11-011 (October 19, 2012). In FHO, an administrative law judge ruled that the hospital was a federal subcontractor subject to OFCCP jurisdiction because of its participation in a health care provider network established by Humana Military Healthcare Services Inc. (HMHS). HMHS has a federal contract with the Department of Defense's TRICARE health care program, which covers active duty soldiers, retired military employees, and their families. The judge ruled that, through its agreement with HMHS, FHO provides medical services to TRICARE beneficiaries and is thus performing a portion of HMHS's obligations under HMHS's TRICARE contract. While the case was on appeal, however, Congress included in the NDAA for Fiscal Year 2012 a section exempting certain TRICARE network providers from being considered federal subcontractors under the affirmative action laws. In light of this new and specific exemption, FHO moved to dismiss the OFCCP's complaint on the basis that it is not a federal subcontractor under the NDAA. In its October 19 decision, the Board dismissed OFCCP's complaint against FHO, holding that FHO's agreement with HMHS is not a subcontract under the NDAA and that OFCCP does not have jurisdiction over the hospital. The Board ruled that it could retroactively apply the NDAA to this case because it does not increase any party's liability, impair any rights, or impose new duties. The OFCCP has not yet announced whether it plans to appeal the Board's ruling but, for now, this decision is a big win for the health care community that has been inundated with OFCCP audits premised on TRICARE jurisdiction. Note, however, that the ruling in this case does not exempt all hospital and health care provider contractors from OFCCP's jurisdiction. The NDAA has no exemption for any provider arrangement other than TRICARE. In addition, health care providers that enter into contracts or subcontracts with federal agencies (such as the Veterans Administration) in an amount exceeding $10,000 are clearly covered by the federal affirmative action laws and subject to OFCCP's jurisdiction. Additional Information Should you have further questions about pending or new OFCCP audits that appear to be premised on TRICARE or other provider arrangements, contact the Ogletree Deakins attorney with whom you regularly work or any member of the firm's Affirmative Action/OFCCP Compliance Practice Group.

On the heels of a highly successful, critically acclaimed sold-out 2012 festival, Sasquatch! Music Festival is set to return for 2013. The festival will run May 24-27 (Memorial Day Weekend) at The Gorge – the internationally acclaimed concert venue carved in the basalt cliffs high above the Columbia River Gorge in Quincy, WA.
A limited number of special discounted four-day festival passes will be available in time for the holiday gift season on Friday, November 23 at 9:00am (PST) via sasquatchfestival.com and will remain available through 11:59pm December 31 (or while supplies last). The festival's complete lineup will be announced in February.
Festival creator Adam Zacks founded Sasquatch! in 2002 with the aim of building an event that catered to the eclectic tastes of voracious music enthusiasts. Personally programming the lineups for each Sasquatch! Festival, Zacks handpicks a diverse array of performers with a tradition of presenting critically acclaimed emerging artists alongside established headliners. Previous lineups have spanned a broad spectrum of genres with an independent spirit including: The Arcade Fire, Beastie Boys, The Black Keys, Coldplay, The Cure, Foo Fighters, Beck, Jack White, My Morning Jacket, Nine Inch Nails, Pixies, R.E.M., Wilco, and hundreds more.
The festival has also grown to include top comedy acts like Flight of the Conchords, Zach Galifianakis and Sarah Silverman as well as leading electronic artists like Deadmau5, Nero and Skrillex.
Electronic luminary Wolfgang Gartner said of his Sasquatch! experience, "There's this festival called Sasquatch! out in the middle of Washington once a year. Last night I played it. This is a really bold statement, but I'm'a go ahead and say this was the best gig I have ever played in my life, crowd-wise, vibe-wise, everything-wise…I will never forget it as long as I live. This is the kind of night that makes me realize I would do this sh*t for free."

Great news on Allen, very happy to hear.
I'm figuring they IR Eric Smith on Sept 4 with the thought of bringing him back Week 6 and elevate Allen to the active 53 man roster.
No, your comment is moronic since the person said the guy did not make the team AND did not get picked up on the psquad. You jokers can devalue the late round picks all you like, just look at the rosters of some of the top teams in the league. We had a hole at RT so we drafted a guard prospect whop was immediately let go, no blocking TE selected. Any pick that doesn't even make the psquad IS a bad pick considering how many udfa are picked up each year.
You can't be serious. We had 5 picks in the last TWO rounds. If you only have ONE sith and ONE seventh, oftentimes one of those guys gets cut.
We had FIVE.
So one got cut (and not PS'd)and "it was a bad pick"?
Hitting on late round picks is more luck than anything else, just like UDFA. It's not like we had 5 picks in the first TWO rounds and cut one of them.
Geezuz, grow the f*ck up.
Happy that the Jets retained Harrison the DT. He could really develop well behind Pouha and Ellis
exactly. griffin was a G only. the jets know they didn't draft OL this year and are trying to develop a quality backup. i'm confident that next FA and in the 2013 draft they'll address RT long-term. that's what happens if you draft BAP. the jets addressed DL, OLB and WR this year. that's 3 positions that are no longer hurting for youth, speed or depth. next offseason they'll address RT.
Jets RapidReports @CBSSportsNFLNYJ
#Jets officially announce they have signed S Antonio Allen to the practice squad. Allen was one of their 7th rd picks. P squad now 8.
The best teams draft better
The best teams don't cut their draft picks
The best teams never make misakes
The best teams never have holes
The beest teams do everything right and the team and their fans are one big happy ****ing Brady Bunch
It's getting ridiculous on this site!! ENOUGH!
Pretty much, every time I see the SOJF *****ing and whine fest on this board, the SAR's, the srobjets, the detjetsfan, etc etc, it's like they all sit in the same room and take turns on their computer...

Have used envirophone in the past with no problems. Sold 2x HTC Desire phones this time, sales were made approx one week apart. This seemed to cause problems as having sent the first phone back they then proceeded by paying the value of the second sale which was five pound less than price offered.
I then sent back the second phone which was repriced due to some damage, I contacted them and they initially seemed very reluctant to pay me the under payment from the first sale. After a couple of phone calls it was agreed that the underpayment would be added to the revised price on the second sale.
This is not reflected on my account at present so will await the payment with interest !!!

Some Nook users are a bit confused about the function of turning the device on or off. When you press the button on the top of the unit, it just puts the Nook into sleep mode. The screensaver is then displayed on the screen.
Although sleep mode allows you to quickly access the device when you need it, it still uses a bit of battery power. To turn the Nook completely off, press and hold the top button for about 5 seconds until the screen goes blank.

The author is a Forbes contributor. The opinions expressed are those of the writer.
Xbox One and PS4 are finally on the market, and both I and the gaming population at large have had plenty of time to play, experiment with, and break the much-vaunted generation of console gaming. The question remains: are these machines worth the price tag in the waning days of 2013?
Many readers already have their console, or have already answered this question with a resounding yes. For anyone without that commitment, conviction, or large pile of easily accessible cash, the answer is a likely no.
Consoles rarely hit the market fully-formed, and these two machines are no exception. PS4 is a slick little machine, but it just isn't launching with enough exclusive software to justify making the leap -- you've only got four games that you can't play anywhere else, and in my estimation, only one of those is any good. Even a more generous appraisal doesn't spell $400+ worth of gaming excitement.
The Xbox One has a deeper and more enjoyable software bench, but you'll still burn through it fairly quickly, and it's nowhere near what it will be once some third-party developers start churning out games. On top of that, the general consensus is that the "king of the entertainment center" functionality shows a lot of promise, but isn't quite fully-formed yet.
Add into that the uncommon, but still present, specter of potential hardware problems -- faulty disc drives for the Xbox One, screwy HDMI ports for the PS4, and you've got a compelling argument to just wait and see how these new machines develop over the course of 2014.
The important thing to remember is that these consoles have no place to go but up. For Microsoft and Sony, there's actually a powerful incentive to avoid launching with any of their top-flight exclusives. The hardest of the hardcore gamers were sure to gobble up any and all available machines whether they could do anything with them or not, so the companies could reserve their Halos and their Uncharteds for later, when fanboys have been placated and it's time to start attracting a mass market.
Both the Xbox One and PS4 have moved 1 million+ units already, with many more PS4s to come in the international release, and many more of both throughout December. This means that the AAA publishers of the world have enough reason to crank out as many titles as they can, and that's great news for these machines. Next Christmas season we'll probably have two machines with a wealth of hardware and software problems ironed out, as well as a deep suite of new releases that can only be experienced on new tech. There might even be a price drop.
If you want to see why you might want these consoles, here are my pre-release lists. There's every reason to wait on what are bound to be two great consoles geared toward two slightly different gamer audiences, but not many compelling reasons to brave hardware shortages and pick one up now. Get a Wii U, build a PC, or just be patient.
TL;DR: No.
Update: To clarify a little bit: if you must have one of these consoles right now, I'd go with the Xbox One based on what you can do with it today. There are more, better games, and a wider array non-gaming applications. The PS4 doesn't look like it will have the games to make it worthwhile until next holiday season. But smart money is on waiting, whichever console you prefer.

Almost Wordless Wednesday-Titanic Victims
These two young boys are James(11) and Walter(9) VanBilliard. They along with their father, Austin VanBilliard, were passengers on the Titanic coming from England. Their father was moving the family to America where he was from. His wife was ill so he left her and the other children to come join him later in Pennsylvania. One of the articles I found said that it was believed that the boys would not leave their father so they all perished. James was never identified. But Walter is buried with their father in Pennsylvania. They are distant cousins in my VanBilliard line.

It is understandable that the Volkmar findings set off a hue and cry on websites devoted to autism.
The walls are painted a solemn Bordeaux hue to let the garments resonate all the more boldly.
The hue and cry for the banning of football has never been stronger.
Her pin-up curls may have been envy-worthy, but it was the bleach blond, almost snow white, hue of her hair that become iconic.
Trying to force her to be based solely on the hue of her skin or the fullness of her lips is really being clueless.
Its waters were mostly deep blue in color, although they had a changeable effect and constantly shifted from one hue to another.
But do you know anything about the inwardness of this business on hue and Cry Island?

"color," Old English hiw "color, form, appearance, beauty," earlier heow, hiow, from Proto-Germanic *hiwam (cf. Old Norse hy "bird's down," Swedish hy "skin, complexion," Gothic hiwi "form, appearance"), from PIE *kei-, a color adjective of broad application (cf. Sanskrit chawi "hide, skin, complexion, color, beauty, splendor," Lithuanian šyvas "white").

"a shouting," mid-13c., from Old French hue "outcry, noise, war or hunting cry," probably of imitative origin. Hue and cry is late 13c. as an Anglo-French legal term meaning "outcry calling for pursuit of a felon." Extended sense of "cry of alarm" is 1580s.

Fox follows Bush's lead, renames domestic spying program as "terrorist surveillance program"
Research ››› ››› JULIE MILLICAN & ANNA DIMOND
Fox News has adopted the Bush administration's terminology for its warrantless domestic spying program, calling it the "terrorist surveillance program."
Not long after the Bush administration adopted new rhetoric to describe its warrantless domestic surveillance program, Fox News reporters and anchors began using the White House's terminology, referring to it as a "terrorist surveillance program." Beginning on January 25 -- during a week that saw the administration go on the offensive to promote its practice of spying on U.S. residents without obtaining warrants -- Fox News began slipping the term, without qualification, into its news reports and commentary. For example, reporter Harris Faulkner, on the January 25 edition of The O'Reilly Factor, used the term during a news brief when she noted that " '[s]trange and farfetched' ... is what New York Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton is calling President Bush's defense of his terror surveillance program."
During what many in the media have described as the White House's weeklong "blitz" to foster support for the wiretapping program, on the January 24 edition of the Fox News morning show, Fox & Friends, co-hosts E.D. Hill and Steven Doocy used the term "terrorist surveillance program" while discussing the president's January 23 Kansas State University speech in which he began using the term publicly. Hill and Doocy concurred that the White House's terminology "sounds better" and "is more accurate" -- presumably than other descriptions of the program, such as "domestic spy program," "warrantless wiretapping" and "NSA domestic surveillance program." The following day on Fox & Friends First, Doocy and co-host Brian Kilmeade announced their intention to refer to the program as "the terrorist surveillance program."
On January 22, the White House Press press office released a backgrounder -- called "Setting the Record Straight" -- on the NSA spy program, in which the term "terrorist surveillance program" appeared 10 times in reference to the NSA's controversial practice, authorized by the White House, of the warrantless surveillance of people in the United States, including U.S. citizens. The term "terrorist surveillance program" appears to have originated with the right-wing news website NewsMax.com on December 22; operators of right-wing weblogs began to pick up the term on January 20, according to a timeline at the Think Progress blog.
As Media Matters for America has noted, Fox also followed the White House's lead in replacing the terms "suicide bomber" and "suicide bombing" with "homicide bomber" and "homicide bombing" to describe attackers who kill themselves and others with explosives. On April 12, 2002, then-White House press secretary Ari Fleisher adopted the term, and Fox News immediately followed suit in its reporting. According to an April 13, 2002, Associated Press report, "Dennis Murray, executive producer of [Fox News'] daytime programming, said executives there had heard the phrase ["homicide bombing"] being used by administration officials in recent days and thought it was a good idea." In a February 23, 2005, item, Media Matters documented Fox's doctoring of AP articles featured on the Fox News website concerning terrorist attacks in the Middle East to conform to Bush administration terminology -- even altering a quote from Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton (D-NY) to fit the White House jargon.
Initially, when using the phrase, "terrorist surveillance program", Fox News reporters and anchors noted that it was the term promoted by the Bush administration. For example, on January 23 broadcast of Your World with Neil Cavuto news update anchor Uma Pemmaraju highlighted the switch:
PEMMARAJU: President Bush on the offensive against critics of domestic wiretapping in the war on terror. The president, speaking at Kansas State University, relabeled his effort the "terrorist surveillance program." He says it was within the law to eavesdrop on people communicating with Al Qaeda associates outside the U.S. after 9-11.
But beginning January 25, use of the phrase began to appear in Fox News reports without any indication that the White House has promoted it.
From Faulkner's news brief during the January 25 edition of Fox News' The O'Reilly Factor:
FAULKNER: "Strange and far-fetched," that's what New York Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton is calling President Bush's defense of his terror surveillance program. For example, President Bush has said Congress gave him the authority as part of a terror fight resolution passed after 9-11. Senator Clinton says she doesn't buy that argument, calling it "a stretch."
From the January 25 broadcast of Fox & Friends First:
KILMEADE: Let's call it the terrorist surveillance program. That would be a lot easier. And right now, if you're--
DOOCY: And more accurate.
KILMEADE: Yeah, more accurate too. If you're for the NSA wiretapping without going to the FISA court, I guess warrantless, then most likely you're Republican. If you are against it, you most likely are a Democrat. Here is what the president is going to be focusing on: the independents.
As Media Matters has previously documented, numerous Republicans and conservatives have expressed concern over the legality of the NSA warrantless spy program.
From the January 24 broadcast of Fox News Channel's Fox and Friends:
DOOCY: I wouldn't be surprised if George W. Bush is looking for a house in Manhattan, Kansas, because the audience yesterday at the Alf Landon Lecture Series at Kansas State University gave him a warm reception. He was talking at great length about the terrorist surveillance program -- that's now how it is being referred to by the White House -- and as we heard the president say at the top of this program just four minutes ago --
HILL: It sounds better, doesn't it? It's more accurate.
DOOCY: It is more accurate, and it tells you what it's about. And he made a good point: He said, "If I wanted to break the law, why was I briefing Congress?"

By now, we all know that I have a serious obsession with time. Whether it is a wall clock or a watch, I can't get enough of gorgeous timepieces. Today, I've decided to share this passion (again) and round up some of my favorite watch styles on My Life Scoop. From metallics and leathers to sporty and futuristic, the possibilities for your watch flair are endless! Click here to read the full post and share some of your favorite styles! — Stephanie
i love that first fossil watch, it's gorgeous!
Number 2 in the gold collection is so simple and beautiful.
That rose gold Fossil watch is beautiful!
In a watch-related question, where might one find GOOD QUALITY pocketwatch-style necklaces? From ebay to etsy and everywhere in between, all I can find are the cheap "antiqued brass" metal ones in the exact same style, all for around $25.00 or less. When I say they are the same style, I mean that they are literally the same mass-produced watch yet for some reason individually sold as "handmade" and "vintage". I'm looking for something more authentic, durable and meant to last. Any ideas?

Feelme Crew is a team of people, dealing primarily with video shooting and editing. There are many creative studios out there in this niche that are using a variety of materials for business cards. We decided to play with the shape, so that our design could pop out better.
The very first design version (in process) was monolithic – the upper part of the clapper board was not moving at all. Then we designed some invitations ( for another client ) using the rivet technology and decided to go with the same method for the Feelme Crew business card design, too. The experiment was successful and actually not too expensive. We produced our cards with the help of two different companies – one which did the printing and another one, specializing in bookbinding.
If you try to produce your own cards of this type be sure that the rivet is put properly. If it's placed loose the upper part will move too freely and this will spoil the overall effect. The paper we used is 300 grams and there is 30 microns laminate over it. Being hard and solid is very important for this specific design of business card.
By the way – this design was showcased in Smashing Magazine in 2010 ( 2 years later ).

Gloria Estefan, was born Gloria Fajardo in Havana, Cuba and raised in Miami. She was born on September 1, 1957 so she is a role model for women young and old. Ms. Estefan proves that a great hairstyle is great no matter what age you are. As long as it is stylish, flattering and well cared for, it is right for you.
Gloria Estefans bob hairstyle is very classy and sophisticated. With the length at chin level, the front edges point seductively at the corners of her mouth and form a face-framing curve.
- If your hair is fine in texture, shampoo and condition your hair with body building products and apply a firm hold styling foam.
If your hair is coarse or frizzy in texture use smoothing products for a sleek look.
- Begin drying this style by turning your head upside down and use the blow dryer to dry the root area at the crown. When the ends just damp, flip your head back right side up and finish blowing it dry using a large round brush to form the gentle curve.
- If your hair flattens on the top, use a large curling iron to add fullness. Form a large curl at the top of your head and carefully remove the curling iron. Grasping that section of hair, back-comb the hair at the base of the curl and spray it with hair spray. When the hair spray is dry, gently comb the hair into place. Repeat this to form 3 or 4 more curls. If there is too much curl and your hair doesnt lay smoothly, use a flat iron to straighten just the ends, leaving the fullness at the base. For maximum fullness use the large curling iron all over and then use a flat iron to smooth the ends.
For those who love to wear bangs, try this style that Gloria Estefan wears so well. Her bangs are trimmed short enough to show off perfectly shaped eyebrows and beautiful eyes. The effect is to draw attention to her eyes and to make them appear larger. Long bangs are often very attractive, but have the effect if concealing the eyes, drawing attention away from them.
- To create bangs like Ms. Estefans, trim them by cutting up into them (vertically) instead of cutting them in a horizontal manner.
- If your bangs are heavy or thick, texturize them until they are lighter looking. Texturizing takes out small amounts of hair of different lengths at intervals throughout, leaving spaces in between. It is done with the points of haircutting shears or with specially designed texturizing shears.

Mark E. Petersen
Council of the 12 Apostles
Be assured that you can be cured of your difficulty. Many have been, both male and female, and you can be also if you determine that it must be so.
This determination is the first step. That is where we begin. You must decide that you will end this practice, and when you make that decision, the problem will be greatly reduced at once.
But it must be more than a hope or a wish, more than knowing that it is good for you. It must be actually a DECISION. If you truly make up your mind that you will be cured, then you will have the strength to resist any tendencies which you may have and any temptations which may come to you.
After you have made this decision, then observe the following specific guidelines:
A Guide to Self-Control:
1. Never touch the intimate parts of your body except during normal toilet processes.
2. Avoid being alone as much as possible. Find good company and stay in this good company.
3. If you are associated with other persons having this same problem, YOU MUST BREAK OFF THEIR FRIENDSHIP. Never associate with other people having the same weakness. Don't suppose that two of you will quit together, you never will. You must get away from people of that kind. Just to be in their presence will keep your problem foremost in your mind. The problem must be taken OUT OF YOUR MIND for that is where it really exists. Your mind must be on other and more wholesome things.
4. When you bathe, do not admire yourself in a mirror. Never stay in the bath more than five or six minutes -- just long enough to bathe and dry and dress AND THEN GET OUT OF THE BATHROOM into a room where you will have some member of your family present.
5. When in bed, if that is where you have your problem for the most part, dress yourself for the night so securely that you cannot easily touch your vital parts, and so that it would be difficult and time consuming for you to remove those clothes. By the time you started to remove protective clothing you would have sufficiently controlled your thinking that the temptation would leave you.
6. If the temptation seems overpowering while you are in bed, GET OUT OF BED AND GO INTO THE KITCHEN AND FIX YOURSELF A SNACK, even if it is in the middle of the night, and even if you are not hungry, and despite your fears of gaining weight. The purpose behind this suggestion is that you GET YOUR MIND ON SOMETHING ELSE. You are the subject of your thoughts, so to speak.
7. Never read pornographic material. Never read about your problem. Keep it out of mind. Remember -- "First a thought, then an act."
The thought pattern must be changed. You must not allow this problem to remain in your mind. When you accomplish that, you soon will be free of the act.
8. Put wholesome thoughts into your mind at all times. Read good books -- Church books -- Scriptures -- Sermons of the Brethern [sic, Cistern too?]. Make a daily habit of reading at least one chapter of Scripture, preferably from one of the four Gospels in the New Testament, or the Book of Mormon. The four Gospels -- Matthew, Mark, Luke and John -- above anything else in the Bible can be helpful because of their uplifting qualities.
9. Pray. But when you pray, don't pray about this problem, for that will tend to keep [it] in your mind more than ever. Pray for faith, pray for understanding of the Scriptures, pray for the Missionaries, the General Authorities, your friends, your families, BUT KEEP THE PROBLEM OUT OF YOUR MIND BY NOT MENTIONING IT EVER -- NOT IN CONVERSATION WITH OTHERS, NOT IN YOUR PRAYERS. KEEP IT _OUT_ of your mind! The attitude of a person toward his problem has an affect on how easy it is to overcome. It is essential that a firm commitment be made to control the habit. As a person understands his reasons for the behavior, and is sensitive to the conditions or situations that may trigger a desire for the act, he develops the power to control it.
As one meets with his Priesthood Leader, a program for overcoming masturbation can be implemented using some of these suggestions. Remember it is essential that a regular report program be agreed on, so progress can be recognized and failures understood and eliminated.
1. Pray daily, ask for the gifts of the Spirit, that which will strengthen you against temptation. Pray fervently and out loud when the temptations are the strongest.
2. Follow a program of vigorous daily exercise. The exercises reduce emotional tension and depression and are absolutely basic to the solution of this problem. Double your physical activity when you feel stress increasing.
3. When the temptation to masturbate is strong, yell STOP to those thoughts as loudly as you can in your mind and then recite a prechosen Scripture or sing an inspirational hymn. It is important to turn your thoughts away from the selfish need to indulge.
4. Set goals of abstinence, begin with a day, then a week, month, year and finally commit to never doing it again. Until you commit yourself to never again you will always be open to temptation.
5. Change in behavior and attitude is most easily achieved through a changed self-image. Spend time every day imagining yourself strong and in control, easily overcoming tempting situations.
6. Begin to work daily on a self-improvement program. Relate this plan to improving your Church service, to improving your relationships with your family, God and others. Strive to enhance your strengths and talents.
7. Be outgoing and friendly. Force yourself to be with others and learn to enjoy working and talking to them. Use principles of developing friendships found in books such as How to Win Friends and Influence People by Dale Carnegie.
8. Be aware of situations that depress you or that cause you to feel lonely, bored, frustrated or discouraged. These emotional states can trigger the desire to masturbate as a way of escape. Plan in advance to counter these low periods through various activities, such as reading a book, visiting a friend, doing something athletic, etc.
9. Make a pocket calendar for a month on a small card. Carry it with you, but show it to no one. If you have a lapse of self control, color the day black. Your goal will be to have no black days. The calendar becomes a strong visual reminder of self control and should be looked at when you are tempted to add another black day. Keep your calendar up until you have at least three clear months.
10. A careful study will indicate you have had the problem at certain times and under certain conditions. Try and recall, in detail, what your particular times and conditions were. Now that you understand how it happens, plan to break the pattern through counter activities.
11. In the field of psychotherapy there is a very effective technique called aversion therapy. When we associate or think of something very distasteful with something which has been pleasurable, but undesirable, the distasteful thought and feeling will begin to cancel out that which was pleasurable. If you associate something very distasteful with your loss of self-control it will help you to stop the act. For example, if you are tempted to masturbate, think of having to bathe in a tub of worms, and eat several of them as you do the act.
12. During your toileting and shower activities leave the bathroom door or shower curtain partly open, to discourage being alone in total privacy. Take cool brief showers.
13. Arise immediately in the mornings. Do not lie in bed awake, no matter what time of day it is. Get up and do something. Start each day with an enthusiastic activity.
14. Keep your bladder empty. Refrain from drinking large amounts of fluids before retiring.
15. Reduce the amount of spices and condiments in your food. Eat as lightly as possible at night.
16. Wear pajamas that are difficult to open, yet loose and not binding.
17. Avoid people, situations, pictures or reading materials that might create sexual excitement.
18. It is sometimes helpful to have a physical object to use in overcoming this problem. A Book of Mormon, firmly held in hand, even in bed at night has proven helpful in extreme cases.
19. In very severe cases it may be necessary to tie a hand to the bed frame with a tie in order that the habit of masturbating in a semi-sleep condition can be broken. This can also be accomplished by wearing several layers of clothing which would be difficult to remove while half asleep.
20. Set up a reward system for your successes. It does not have to be a big reward. A quarter in a receptacle each time you overcome or reach a goal. Spend it on something which delights you and will be a continuing reminder of your progress.
21. Do not let yourself return to any past habit or attitude patterns which were part of your problem. Satan Never Gives Up. Be calmly and confidently on guard. Keep a positive mental attitude. You can win this fight! The joy and strength you will feel when you do will give your whole life a radiant and spiritual glow of satisfaction and fulfillment.

I always have to laugh when I see a thread described as "Not Work Safe." Is there anything on the OT forum that's really "work safe"? If I were your boss, I'd be mad if you spent any time on this forum at work at all. How is a picture of a naked girl any less work safe than, say, a picture of a matador getting gored in the *** by an angry bull? - VaderDave

Stephen Curry Receives NBA's Kia Community Assist Award For January
Kia and NBA Donate $10,000 To Make-A-Wish Greater Bay Area On Curry's Behalf
"I've been living in the Bay Area for the last five years and I call this place home," said Curry, who was selected as a starter in this weekend's 2014 NBA All-Star Game. "To be able to help support the community and its families in need, especially during the holiday season, is a very rewarding experience that I'm happy to be a part of."
During tonight's home game against the Philadelphia 76ers, NBA Cares Ambassador Bob Lanier, Golden State Warriors President and COO Rick Welts and a Kia representative will present Curry with the David Robinson Plaque during an on-court ceremony at the end of halftime.
Curry went above and beyond during the NBA's Season of Giving program; he helped to feed more than 400 families, hosted local community organizations at Warriors' games, and fulfilled the dream of a Make-A-Wish youth named Anthony. In addition to gifting the 14-year-old boy with a PlayStation 4, an Under Armour swag bag, a Muscle Milk custom bottle and a custom Men's Wearhouse suit, Curry awarded Anthony a locker in the Warriors' official locker room.
In addition, as a member of the NBA FIT Team, Curry hosted a health clinic for more than 250 kids in Alameda. He spoke to them about living healthy and staying active, and joined them in cooking and exercise classes. Curry also partnered with Kaiser Permanente for a Get Fit Time-Out Hoops & Health Clinic at Oakland's Ira Jinkins Recreation Center to encourage 200 students from Brookfield Elementary School to stay physically active and eat healthy. Curry also participated in three on-court gifting ceremonies for select kids, including a special holiday book exchange on Martin Luther King, Jr. Day. At multiple Warriors' home games throughout January, Curry hosted more than 80 underprivileged youths in Curry's Corner, a special section for kids to watch the game and visit with Curry.

They've got muck; we've got rakes. TPM Muckraker
ALEC, NRA Pushed 'Stand Your Ground' Legislation At Center Of Trayvon Martin Killing
Florida was the first state in the country to pass such a bill, but they weren't the last. And like many legislative trends, this one has its roots in the conservative American Legislative Exchange Council (ALEC).
Minutes documenting a 2005 meeting from an old ALEC website provided to TPM by the Center for Media and Democracy and Common Cause show that Marion Hammer of the National Rifle Association (NRA) pitched model legislation to ALEC's Criminal Justice Task Force. An old NRA update also documented the meeting. "Her talk was well-received, and the task force subsequently adopted the measure unanimously," the NRA wrote in an Aug. 12, 2005 post on the NRA website.
As Matt Gertz writes over at Media Matters, Florida's law is "virtually identical" to the so-called "Castle Doctrine Act" proposed by ALEC and the NRA's suggestion.
Opponents of the legislation are pointing out how easily it could be abused.
"All you have to say is that you reasonably believed you were threatened, and the only person who can dispute that is the person you have just killed," says Daniel Vice of the Brady Center to Prevent Gun Violence. But as this chart from Mother Jones illustrates, "Stand Your Ground" bills have already spread across the country.
Sponsors of Florida's bill, meanwhile, are claiming it shouldn't come into play in the Martin case.
"They got the goods on him. They need to prosecute whoever shot the kid," former Sen. Durell Peaden told the Miami Herald. "He has no protection under my law."

Kings Lose Kopitar
Posted on 27 Mar 2011 by Eric Cooney.
First off, sorry for the prolonged absence. I was on a long vacation and definitely suffered from blogger withdrawal. Anyone who showed a remote interest in hockey I would prattle on to forever, so it's good to be back. There's a lot going on for the Kings right now, so I'd like to just touch on the few things that will be impacting the Kings… severely. (more…)

Alderson Begins To Untangle Mets Mess
Posted on 21 Mar 2011 by Brandon Marcus.
Their owners are broke. In such despair they needed to borrow from the league. They may also need a substantial loan from the large banking institution whose name resides on their shiny young ballpark. They are looking for a minority owner to ease their burden, hoping to avoid being forced to relinquish control of the team. These are the front page stories for the Mets. Not the state of play ...

FBIW#5: 1st base rankings
Posted on 16 Mar 2011 by Mo Johnson.
Although 2010 may have been the year that pitching once again took over the Earth, one position held on strong. The mighty men at 1st continued to flex their muscles and rip the cover off the ball. So it should not be a surprise that 1stbase will likely produce 3 of these guys will go in the first round, including consensus #1 pick Albert Pujols. But unlike other positions first base i...

No New CBA. So What Now?
Posted on 16 Mar 2011 by David Willow.
So as of now the NFL is set for a lockout and no official business between players and team personnel will be taking place, save for the NFL draft. Ah, okay great. What this ends up resulting in is the inability for players to train with trainers or coaches during the offseason mainly younger players like Dez Bryant, who sorely need the guidance and leadership from coaches to sharpen their game...

1976 Logans Run Saying that the Eagles' personnel decisions resemble the cult 1970s sci-fi dystopian flick Logans Run (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0074812/) may be a bit unfair, but you can count the number of players over 30 on the Eagles roster without taking off your shoes. Former Eagles RB Brian Westbrook said recently that he'd love to return to Philly. After spending a year in San Francis...

Versatility for Dallas at the Number 9 Spot?
Posted on 4 Mar 2011 by David Willow.
The number 9 spot for the Cowboys seems to be growing more and more uncertain as draft boards shift around in the top 10 positions. Most signs point to Prince Amukamara as the best pick to fill one of their most vulnerable spots in the secondary, but after the NFL Combine some are speculating that Amukamara will not be available at the 9 spot and Dallas will be left at too high of a position to...

Early Positives for Mets This Spring
Posted on 3 Mar 2011 by Jim Mancari.
Spring Training is only about two weeks old, but already some players are starting to leave an impact on the new manager, Terry Collins. Regardless of a 2-3-1 record, the team seems to be coming together nicely, especially since the main focus of this offseason dealt with off-the-field issues. Stats really don't mean too much in spring. Rather, a player's quality of at-bats and defensive pre...

Fantasy Baseball is War: The Catcher Report
Posted on 2 Mar 2011 by Mo Johnson.
For most of baseballs illustrious past the middle infield positions (Catcher, 2nd base & shortstop) had been secured by defensive minded specialists. Good hitting was considered more of a luxury then a requirement. Slowly but surely things changed. Lands once reserved for golden gloved slap hitters were sacked and looted by young brawny sluggers. The Louis Castillo's of the world...

One of the largest questions the New York Jets faced coming into the 2010-11 season was whether or not neophyte signal caller Mark Sanchez would be able to take the next step in his development to lead the team and become a top tier quarterback who will be capable of winning a Super Bowl championship. That question has been answered….sort of. Statistically, there is no doubt: Sanchez im...

"Make It Or Break It" finally returns to ABC Family for its third season on Monday, March 26 at 9 p.m. ET. The Rock girls are just eight weeks away from possibly making the Olympic gymnastics team, and ABC Family has released episode descriptions for the first few weeks that give us a little more info as to what Payson, Kaylie and Lauren will be up to as they pursue their dreams of Olympic Gold.
Check out what's happening in the first three episodes:
Monday, March 26: "Smells Like Winner" (Season premiere)
Payson, Kaylie and Lauren are one step closer to making their dream of Olympic Gold a reality, but first they must endure eight weeks at the USA Training Center to make the final cut. With a new coach, new rivals, and new distractions, the girls must really up their game. Payson tries to focus on her training after receiving upsetting news, Kaylie feels torn between her boyfriend and her teammates, and Lauren worries that her new custom-created perfume is giving her dizzy spells.
Monday, April 2: "It Takes Two"
Coach McIntire decides to pair the girls up to teach the lesson that, while gymnastics is a single sport, they won't make it to the Olympics alone. This is not a training technique the girls were expecting, especially when Lauren and Payson are paired up and Kaylie is slotted with Kelly Parker. Still stinging from Kelly's betrayal before, how can Kaylie possibly live with this girl, let alone trust her? And Payson and Lauren are polar opposites, so how can they possibly agree on anything that can put them on the right track? Meanwhile, Austin pushes Kaylie to consider a career after the Olympics.
Monday, April 9: "Time is of the Essence"
With just six weeks to go until the Olympics, the women's gymnastics team is looking less like a team with every day that goes by. Coach Mac is determined to whip them in to shape, the way he did when he was head coach of the Men's team. The only problem is the girls are not responding to his harsh tactics and even worse, not improving. With a frustrated team and the NGO looking over his shoulder, Coach Mac is desperate to turn things around. Meanwhile, Payson is still plagued with the Sasha kissing scandal – even at the USA Training Center.
Sounds juicy. Are you excited for the show to return?

(ANHRI/IFEX) - 2 December 2012 - The Arabic Network for Human Rights Information (ANHRI) condemned the use of excessive force by the Bahraini security forces in response to demonstrations that took place in several villages near Manama on 30 November 2012.
Areas surrounding Manama witnessed mass demonstrations protesting the siege imposed by security forces on Mahza village, one of the Sitra island villages south of the Bahraini capital of Manama. The siege began three weeks ago and remains in place. The demonstrations were organised in response to a call by the 14 February coalition. Protesters carried banners and signs opposing the regime as well as pictures of Bahraini detainees in prisons across the country.
Bahraini security forces responded to the protests with tear gas, sound bombs and shotgun bullets, injuring several protesters in the process. Among them was Ahmed Mohamed El-Elwani, who was arrested with a group of friends in the village of El-Mosli. They were tortured while in custody, and his friends were later released. He remains in custody at El-Khamis police station.
In another incident, the Bahraini security forces destroyed some Shiite mosques, among them the Abutaleb mosque in the Hamd Dawar 19 city and the military mosque of El-Hussein in the city of Hamd Dawar 22. They also tore down the wall of the Fadak mosque.
"The repressive policy of the regime, which escalated recently, clearly discriminates against certain people. It is chasing down Shiite activists and entering villages, destroying their houses of worship and assaulting their special ceremonies. The regime also prosecuted certain preachers due to their sermons at Friday prayers in order to present the revolution as sectarian, and not popular, as well as increasing the intransigence of the regime in dealing with the legitimate requests of the Bahraini people".
ANHRI calls on the Bahraini regime to respect the rights of all people to freedom of expression and freedom of belief.

Phew! Mardi Gras 2011 is officially over and to be unapologetically honest, I could not be happier to be rid of stinky beads, traffic, muddy shoes, parking tickets, and way too much fattening food. This carnival season was the longest one we've had in years and OMG was it intense. The blog suffered during the long-haul into Fat Tuesday since life didn't allot any time to sit and write. But now that the stress is over, I am very happy to be back at the keyboard.
About a week before the Mardi Gras madness began, my fiancé and I headed out for a quiet dinner, just the two of us, to celebrate Valentine's day a little late. We had been dying to go to Herbsaint for a long time, and after talking to a few friends who had recently visited, I knew I couldn't wait any longer. We arrived on time, opted for an outside table, since the air was cool and balmy, and proceeded to order whatever our hearts desired.
To start, we split the Mixed Greens with City Ham, Ryals Cheddar, and Buttermilk Dressing. A lovely salad of fresh, vibrant greens, pungent ham, and sharp-tasting cheddar, tossed in a creamy, peppery buttermilk dressing. Toasted croutons added a nice crunch.
Our first choice for a small plate was the Louisiana Shrimp and Grits with Tasso and Okra. The shrimp tasted fresh out the gulf, the grit cake had a nice crust but was still creamy on the inside, and the salty morsels of tasso danced beautifully with soft okra smothered in red eye gravy. After polishing off the plate, we looked at each other and said, "Now that's what local food is all about".
Curiosity led to us ordering the Mortadella, Cauliflower, and Cheddar Gratin. My fiancé could eat a big bowl of plain cauliflower, no problem. I, on the other hand, haven't been a fan of the bland veggie since I was about two years old. But the idea of eating cauliflower baked in a cast iron gratin with creamy cheddar sounded like it could win me over. And a Donald Link cauliflower gratin fan I am. Like your mom's best casserole, this gratin had all the comforts of a home-cooked meal. A crunchy, buttery seasoned bread crumb topping cracked open to display a creamy, steaming-hot medley of cauliflower florets, chunks of spiced mortadella, and piping hot cheddar cheese sauce. A dish guaranteed to win the heart of any self-proclaimed cauliflower hater.
I chose a wine flight of three different red wines to accompany my entree. All of them were lovely, but I was especially a fan of the Lignier-Michelot, which was bold enough to stand up to the rest of my flavorful meal.
After hearing one of my friends rant and rave about the Muscovy Duck Confit with Dirty Rice, Sauteed Broccoli, and Citrus Gastrique, I knew I had to taste it for myself. And sure enough, after just one bite I knew what all the raving was about. This slow-cooked Muscovy duck leg had perfectly crispy skin, giving way to succulent meat that pulled easily from the bone. The warmth of duck fat permeated the entire dish and combined wonderfully with the sweet and tangy citrus gastrique, made from orange juice. Dirty rice seasoned with liver and pork pieces, the holy trinity (onion, bell pepper, and celery), and Chef Link's own combination of seasonings provided a soul-full backdrop to this dish. The steamed broccoli was kept simple with just some oil, salt, and pepper. I often think about what I'd want to eat if I could choose my last meal and friends, this one just might be it.
My fiancé went with the special of Cornmeal Dusted and Pan Seared Flounder with Poblano Chili Vinaigrette, Creamed Greens, and a Lemon Buerre Blanc. I took one bite but wasn't nearly as impressed as I was with my duck confit. The greens were delicious but we both found the fish to be slightly under-seasoned. Kudos to the chefs for the chili vinaigrette, however, as it was flavorful, imaginative, and quite tasty.
After much deliberation, we finally settled on two desserts. The Warm Chocolate Pudding Cake with Salted Caramel, Cashew Ice Cream, and Cocoa Nib Caramel Corn and the Coconut Creme Pie with Macadamia Nut Crust, Caramel Drizzle, and Fresh Pineapple. Now normally, the extreme chocolate lava cake served a la mode desserts don't appeal to me since just about every restaurant in the world has their own talked-up version. But fo' reals, this chocolate pudding cake took the cake. I cannot describe to you what happened to my taste buds once the warm chocolate cake filled with salted caramel sauce hit my lips. Utter bliss. Cashew ice cream and crunchy bits of caramel corn made this dessert even more memorable. Best chocolate dessert I've ever had.
The coconut cream pie was exceptional as well, with a deep coconut flavor, buttery crust studded with macadamia nuts, and cubes of fresh pineapple. The salted caramel drizzled on the plate didn't hurt, either.
Let's face it, when it comes to Southern-style food dressed to impress, Chef Donald Link really knows what he's doing. The Herbsaint experience was exactly what I'd hoped for, where the food is a distinct representation of a man's life-long love affair with Louisiana-style cooking. Attention to ingredients is equal to that of technique, and the result is effortlessly simple, yet immensely flavorful food that's as much of a joy to look at as it is to eat. I can't wait to share this decade-old restaurant with those who, like me, have simply been waiting for the right time to give it a go.

Over one third of Vancouver Sun Run participants are walkers! Start Walkers have their own start zone (1:46+) and are the last wave to cross the start line at approximately 9:30 to 9:45 a.m. You are encouraged to arrive at the start by 9 a.m. to ensure that you can access your start zone and partake in all the pre-race festivities. Remember several streets in the downtown core will be closed and this may add delays to your traveling time if you leave later in the morning. Bring water and stay warm. Dress with layered clothing to ensure you stay warm while waiting for your wave to start but ensure you remove your clothing to expose your race bib before your cross that start line to ensure your timing chip is activated. Port-a-Potties are stationed on Hornby Street for your convenience and comfort. The Walker's Zone gear check is located on Howe Street and will remain open until 9:30 a.m. Remember there's no need to sneak into a faster start zone. With the timing system, your time begins when YOU cross the start line. Bands at the start area will entertain you until the last walker leaves. Walker's Pit Stop Boost your energy level! Fuel up with fruit and water at your very own Walkers Pit Stop (located between the 3K and 4K mark) to help you get to the finish line.
