I try to honor Ben's Asian heritage as much as I honor my Italian background. Usually we celebrate with a large Asian meal, but for some unknown reason, this year, I am stuck in the comfort food roasts and stews mode. I'll be over that soon and we will have a belated big Asian feast. Until then, I know it is the year of the dog, however, here is our Chinese dragon head to send you best wishes.
I can't resist telling the story about how I got the dragon head…. when we were in Hong Kong in February/March of 1996 with Jim and BK I bought it at the local version of K-Mart. (Great store, can't remember the name but I could probably walk there if I was in Hong Kong ) Now keep in mind this was 1996 before airlines got so nasty about bringing things on planes. Our suitcases were full with china and other treasures. The dragon head was in a box, roughly 2 feet square. Weighed less than 1 pound. I was carrying it on. It is only paper mache and could be easily crushed. I really did not want to check it. Well! You would have thought I was bringing on live snakes! Such a fuss! The box was a little too big for the overhead bins. What to do? What to do…. finally an accommodating member of the crew found a place for it in the first class closet and it made it safely back to the US. It did not travel with us to Italy but has been in storage. Now I am happy that it is out and hanging, guarding our back door and spinning around freely when the heat or air comes on.

Give INUKA The Respect Of Burial
0 have signed. Let's get to 2,500!
It is evident that Inuka, the Polar Bear at the Singapore Wildlife Reserves, touched the hearts of thousands of Singaporeans. Whatever our opinions, thoughts or feelings, The Wildlife Reserves of Singapore, made a professional decision to euthanise Inuka on humane grounds. For most of us, our feelings are based on emotion. Whether we are of the opinion that Zoos shouldn't exist, that there should never have been a Polar Bear exhibit or other views, we must accept Inuka is gone.
An autopsy will be conducted but unfortunately The Wildlife Reserves has no plans for burial. In view of the fact that from the moment Inuka was born he gave up his life for our entertainment, at the expense of years of loneliness and isolation, it is only right and humane to give Inuka an honourable send off. I believe The Wildlife Reserves needs to acknowledge the negative sentiment that this issue has created and also acknowledge the deep bond that many Singaporeans had built with Inuka over the years, as well as the high regard he held in Singaporean hearts. The Wildlife Reserves must seriously reconsider their decision and give Inuka due respect. We certainly have the funds to provide Inuka with a rightfully deserved burial and memorial. How does The Wildlife Reserves plan to dispose of Inuka's body if there is no burial? It is common practice in many zoo's to feed the deceased's remains to the other animals. Will this also be Inuka's fate?
A heartfelt appeal goes out to all to please sign the petition to give Inuka a proper burial and memorial at The Wildlife Reserves, in acknowledgement and respect of Inuka's life and contributions.
The Wildlife Reserves feel that they have done the right and humane thing by ending Inuka's suffering. They now also have to continue to do the right and humane thing by honouring Inuka with a proper burial.
Please sign this petition to give Inuka the respect and burial he deserves.
This completed petition will be sent to The Wildlife Reserves for consideration.

U.S. Budget Deal Cuts Funds for Community Clinic Growth
The 2011 federal budget agreement reached last week would remove $600 million from a $1 billion fund to support the expansion of community health centers, which are expected to help provide care for millions of newly insured patients under the federal health reform law. Of the remaining funds, $150 million is available to finance expansions for the clinics. California has about 800 community clinics in operation.

Luxury Moroccan Riads
A mixture of sensuous luxury and aesthetic simplicity, the historic Moroccan city of Marrakech attracts a fashionable crowd of winter sun seekers. The dusky, pink-walled Medina, the 'old city', boasts a greater density of chic boutique lodgings than possibly anywhere else in the world and the multitude of emporia will keep shopaholics busy for days. Even non-shoppers will be amazed by the colour, diversity and vibrancy surrounding the souks. In short, fabulous nightclubs, new-wave riads and radical new Moroccan food make this the coolest place to be. This begs the question: Where to stay?
Riad Lotus Privilege
This fantastically glitzy Moroccan hotel is down an improbably dark lane in the northern part of the medina. As with most riads, the street front is modest, which makes the courtyard seem all the more astonishing. Set against a pure white wall, two tall obelisks clad in mirrors stand sentry beside a pool in the centre of a black-and-beige marble floor. To either side are cream sofas, and a row of orange trees screens off the dining and sitting rooms. The Moroccan decor is a fusion of contemporary chic and oriental. Part of the style-conscious Lotus group, the hotel was designed by Antoine Van Doorne with his trademark edgy glamour. The extravagance continues in the five bedrooms, spacious hammam and on the bamboo-lined roof terrace. The three suites and two double bedrooms are huge and are decorated in strong colours. All have Bang & Olufsen sound systems and DVD-players. The bathrooms have plenty of Moroccan marble and mirrors.
Royal Mansour
Tucked within the Marrakesh city walls, across the road from the Luxurious La Mamounia, the 3.5-hectare site has been contrived as a sort of medina-within-the-medina, an estate of 53 two-storey riads, each individually decorated and serviced via a network of subterranean tunnels. In addition to at least one bedroom, a sitting room and a patio, many of the riads have dining rooms, for those who decline to dine in the three restaurants. La Grande Table Française, already held to be the best French restaurant in Africa, the only marginally less fancy Grande Table Marocaine and the all-day-dining La Table are overseen by chef Yannick Alléno (from the three-Michelin-star restaurant at Le Meurice in Paris).
Dar Seven
With imposing candlesticks, cream drapes and crystal glasses, all is grand and comfortable in this dreamy haven with four bedrooms in the north of the medina. Dar Seven is owned by Princess Letizia Ruspoli, whose super-luxurious Residenza Napoleone III apartment is one of the ultimate places to stay in Rome. She designed the Marrakech property as a holiday home for her own family, and you can rent one or all of the four rooms when they are not in residence. This Moroccan riad is decorated in tranquil whites, creams and browns, the sitting room lined with antique black-and-white prints of Turkish pashas and the courtyard doorways hung with old, lined doors. The staff of three serve breakfast and other meals either downstairs or on the roof terrace, which is fringed with agaves and banana trees. They will also book restaurants and visits to nearby hammams or organise in-house treatments.
Angsana Riads Collection Morocco
Angsana's six Marrakshi properties are all built around a central courtyard, with just a handful of rooms and lovely roof terraces. Five are clustered in the Medina near Bahia Palace, while the sixth is 10 minutes' walk away in the Kasbah. You'd be hard pushed to choose a favourite: each is romantic and delightful in its own way and, best of all, guests can use the facilities of any in the collection. The all-suite 19th-century Riad Si Said stands out for its opulent Moroccan decor and large pool; Riad Lydines has a sleek, more modern feel and the suite has a private rooftop hot tub; Riad Tiwaline is one of the most atmospheric with a dark-wood decked courtyard. There's no space for full-blown facilities, but each riad has a treatment room and a hammam where Thai staff deliver exquisite massages.

NE-10 Presidents' Cup leading Skyhawks earn top ten rank with four fall NCAA Tournament appearances
NACDA Learfield Cup Standings Release
EASTON, Mass. (December 12, 2014) – Northeast-10 Conference Presidents' Cup leading Stonehill College is ranked eighth in the first 2014-15 Learfield Sports Directors' Cup Division II standings announced by the National Association of Collegiate Directors of Athletics (NACDA) at the conclusion of the NCAA Division II Fall Championships Festival in which Stonehill had three teams represented.
Stonehill earned 187 points by way of its four NCAA Tournament appearances in men's and women's cross country, field hockey and volleyball. The Skyhawks are the top Northeast-10 Conference program in the Learfield Cup standings, which is topped by Grand Valley State University, winners of nine Directors' Cups, including 2013-14, with 373 points on the heels of National Championships in women's cross country and women's soccer in Louisville, Kentucky, over the weekend. The College of Saint Rose ranks second in the Learfield Cup standings among NE-10 members in 30th place (108 points), while Adelphi University is ranked 55th (81).
"I'd like to congratulate our fall teams for their incredible success as measured by these rankings," said Brendan J. Sullivan, Director of Intercollegiate Athletics at Stonehill. "Qualifying for an NCAA Championship is the goal of each program at the start of the year and to have four programs reach their respective championship is a tremendous honor for Stonehill. I'd like to thank our student-athletes and coaches for all of their diligent work and commitment to improving our proud tradition."
Stonehill, which leads the NE-10 Presidents' Cup standings following the fall season, earned 55 points from both field hockey and women's cross country, 52 points from men's cross country and 25 points from volleyball. Field hockey reached the national semifinals and is credited with a third place finish, while women's cross country placed 19th as a team and men's cross country finished 22nd at the NCAA Cross Country Championships and volleyball received a 33rd place finish for reaching the NCAA East Regional Tournament. It marked the second NCAA Tournament bid for the volleyball program, the sixth for field hockey (fourth national semifinal), 12th NCAA Championship appearance for men's cross country and 15th for women's cross country.
Stonehill's eighth place standing is the highest ever at any stage of the Learfield Cup since NACDA and USA TODAY developed the award to reward overall achievement in NCAA Championships. The Skyhawks previous high following the fall sports season is a 23rd place standing in 2003 and the College's highest ever final standing is a 20th place finish in 2009-10.
Stonehill, which finished the 2013-14 academic year with six Northeast-10 Championships, has already won four after the fall season. Stonehill won the first volleyball regular season championship in program history as well as its sixth-straight NE-10 women's cross country title. Stonehill also earned postseason NE-10 championships in field hockey and women's tennis during the fall season. All six Stonehill programs with NE-10 postseason championships qualified for their respective tournaments.
Men's Soccer finished tied for third in the regular season standings and hosted an NE-10 Tournament match for the first time since 1994. Field Hockey finished the regular season second in the regular season standings before defeating top-seeded LIU Post in the championship, 1-0, for its second postseason championship. Women's Tennis finished third in the regular season standings before reeling off three NE-10 Tournament wins to its fifth Conference Crown. Men's cross country added a second place finish to the women's title at the NE-10 Championships, while women's soccer also qualified for its NE-10 Tournament and football finished sixth in the regular season standings.
With 20 intercollegiate sports, Stonehill boasts one of the top athletic and academic programs in the country. In addition to finishing in the top three in the final NE-10 Presidents' Cup standings ten straight years, the Skyhawks have received the NCAA Division II Presidents' Award for Academic Achievement each of the first three years of the program's existence of honoring programs with an Academic Success Rate (ASR) of 90-percent or better. The Stonehill has earned a 96% Academic Success Ranking (ASR) by the NCAA, which considers the academic success rate of the institution based on the graduation rate of student-athletes, good for eighth among all NCAA Division II institutions, with 12 Skyhawk teams receiving a perfect rating of 100%. In addition, the Skyhawks are ranked third in the National Collegiate Scouting Association (NCSA) Power Rankings for Division II used to assess the academic and athletic standards of all NCAA and NAIA athletic programs.

Games Related to Dragonz
Yet another new release from the gaming gods at Microgaming, this time with one of the most striking and eye-catching slots you will have seen in the history of slot gaming.
The game is called Dragonz, but this is unlike almost any other slot you will have played as it comes with incredible 3D graphics.
What this means is that graphics that were once two dimensional and dare I say, a little boring, are now more vivid than ever, brighter than ever and with greater clarity. The net result is a slot that is the absolute definition of next generation gaming and that is not solely because of how beautiful the game looks, but a lot more besides.
The premise of the Dragonz slot is that you are following the fate of four dragons who are embarking upon an epic quest. As they progress in that quest, they will unlock bonus rounds and base game wins that will allow you to take home a, hopefully decent, cash prize.
The game was announced at the iGaming Super Show earlier this year with Microgaming extremely excited about the development of the new game. So much so that Roger Raatgaver, the CEO of Microgaming stated
"Dragonz...is an innovative game with never-seen before features, insane graphics, loads of wilds and a free spins feature that will make your eyes go pop!"
So let's take a closer look at the slot to see if he was right.
The first thing to note about the slot is that it is a standard 5x3 reel game which instead of having individual paylines boasts 243-ways to win instead and it can be played on desktop, mobile and tablet devices. Each of the five reels is a 3D reel and there is a top jackpot cash prize of 1,000 coins to be won. All this combined with a Return to Player (RTP) of 96.3% means that Dragonz is not just a slot that offers innovation, but also a fair game for the player too.
The reels consist of the usual playing card low symbols which, to be honest, is the only disappointing aspect of this slot. I'd have liked to have seen a few more characters added to the reels relating to the story of the four dragons, or perhaps some of their nemesis' as the low characters but instead we have the usual low symbols from nine through to the Ace.
The higher value symbols on the reels are the four dragons of the story and they all have their own name. Flint, Gobble, Frost and Switch and each is coloured differently too and looks very different to the other.
Of course, you can vary the amount you wish to bet with the lowest possible wager in the game being just 0.40 per spin, although if you are a higher roller you can increase this up to a maximum bet of 30.00 per spin. There is also a handy auto-play feature if you wish to let the reels spin at set number of times in your absence.
What really makes this slot stand out however is the game-play as with the Dragonz slot, the animations and graphics are genuinely outstanding. However, there needs to be more substance to a slot than simply great graphics and sound to make it appeal and fortunately Dragonz doesn't shirk this challenge in any way.
During the base game, if on a spin you do not win then you could trigger the Wild Deal feature when a Wild symbol lands on the third reel. When this is triggered, additional Wild symbols will appear across the other reels to guarantee you a win on that spin. What is great about this feature is that it does trigger frequently on non-winning spins, so you feel the slot is giving you great value for money as you play.
However, what really makes the Dragonz slot stand out is each of the four Free Spins bonus games you can trigger when you hit three or more of the scatter symbols anywhere across the reels. The first dozen times you trigger this feature in a session, you will be randomly assigned to a bonus game, however after you have triggered this 12 times you are then able to select the feature you want to play.
The four bonuses available in the free spins round are named after the dragon.
The Flint dragon is the red coloured beast of the bunch and if you take his bonus you get 10 free spins with Flaming Wilds. These are where Flint will randomly fire Wilds onto the reels using his fiery breath. Each time he fires Wilds on a free spin, the number of Wilds increases with up to 10 wilds possible on a single spin.
The purple coloured dragon is named Switch and for his bonus you also get 10 free spins but this time with Stashed Wilds. The Switch feature stores non-winning Wild symbols from a spin and when three of these have been collected, they are distributed on the reels on the next spin to ensure you hit a winning combination. One pleasing feature of this bonus is that if you have Wilds stored up when your free spins end, you will receive additional free spins until all your stored Wilds have been used up.
Gobble is the green and greediest dragon of the bunch and he comes with 10 free spins and a Winning Wilds feature. This is a modification of the Sticky Wilds feature where the Wilds remain in place on winning spins, only disappearing when they are not part of a winning payline on a free spin.
Finally, Frost is the blue coloured dragon and he comes with the Frosty Wilds feature as well as 10 free spins. In this feature, Frost will appear on the reels to freeze any wilds that do not form part of a winning payline where they will remain in place on subsequent spins until they contribute to a winning payline.
This is a hugely enjoyable slot that has a nice variance to it and allows players to play without draining them of their cash, while still offering a fair chance at a win that could be as much as 3583 times your original stake.

Next weekend will play host to the final four-star event in 2016 — The Australian International Three Day Event in Adelaide — and while the four-star crowd is a bit cozier after an Olympic year, it's nonetheless stacking up to be a thrilling contest.
Rio Team Bronze Medalists Stuart Tinney and Shane Rose both have horses entered in the CCI4* division, and will be looking to collect a few points for the FEI Classics Series. The series aims to unite the top end of the international eventing circuit by way of the world's six four-star events, and the top points-earner collects $40,000 for their efforts.
Stuart Tinney will be competing aboard War Hawk, an 11-year-old Holsteiner gelding who will be making his first go on a four-star XC course after withdrawing after dressage at this same event last year. The two are well poised for success next week thanks to a top ten finish in the CIC3* at Goulburn two weeks ago, and a win in the Meblourne CCI3* back in June.
Fellow Rio teammate Shane Rose also has one mount entered: Glenorchy South Park, an 11-year-old Australian Thoroughbred who has finished in the top ten at every event this year, including two CCI3* divisions.
Wilhelm Enzinger will be riding two horses in the four-star division, and he is the only competitor with multiple mounts in the top division. His rides are Britannica MVNZ, a New Zealand Sport Horse making his four-star debut, and Wenlock Aquifer, an Australian Thoroughbred who placed 12th at Adelaide last year.
In addition to the CCI4*, Adelaide also runs a number of other levels over the weekend, including a CIC3* and a CCI2* Young Rider Championship. Among the big names entered in the CIC3* is Brit and recent series champion of the Event Rider Masters Oliver Townend, who is entered on Tim Boland's horse, Napoleon, an 11-year-old warmblood. The three-star will also include 2008 Beijing silver medalist Megan Jones aboard two horses, and Atlanta team gold medalist Wendy Schaeffer who is traveling from her UK yard for the event.
Keep it locked in EN for all the impending news and highlights from the last four-star of the year!

How Romney Would Have Protected Special Interests and stopped the Sequestration
The Romneys, on their first interview since losing the election, spoke to Republican television, aka FOX news. Ann Romney said her husband, had he won, would have solved the sequester by now. "I totally believe at this moment, if Mitt were there in the office, that we would not be facing sequestration right now," she said.
Mitt himself said: "I'll look at what's happening right now, I wish I were there," Mitt Romney said. "It kills me not to be there, not to be in the White House doing what needs to be done. The president is the leader of the nation. The president brings people together, does the deals, does the trades, knocks the heads together; the president leads. And – and I don't see that kind of – of leadership happening right now"
Are there any surprises here? A Republican President being blindly supported by his party, is this a first? What Republicans don't do is lead, they follow.
From the day President Obama took the oath of office in 2009, Republicans have said "no", and nothing else. Ideas that were once Republican, and proposed by the President are now unsupported by the right wing, simply because they came out of Mr. Obama's mouth.
It's easy for the Romney's to say that the Sequester would not have happened if he had been elected. Need I remind them that the House is controlled by his party?
The Romney's are explaining why he lost the election. It's all the fault of the press and their misrepresentation of the "Mittster".
Well, they're partially correct. He was exposed as a candidate who represented special interests and the wealthiest Americans. He was exposed as a candidate who did not represent "47%" or more of the American people. He was exposed as a candidate who pandered to whichever audience he was speaking to.
Romney, Boehner, and McConnell need to stop throwing temper tantrums. You lost, get over it. Now how about trying some positive action that will make all of our lives better, not just the top 2%? I know that idea is quite revolutionary, but, try it, it just might work.

[tl;dr: Virtue Ethics is a moral philosophy focused on character and habits, rather than rules and actions. Instead of asking "Did Tyler do the right thing?", virtue ethics asks "Does Tyler kick ass?"]
An Introduction to Virtue Ethics
(Quick clarification: I here use the phrase "kick ass" not in the physical "I'm gonna beat your ass" sense but in the be fucking awesome sense.)
Virtue Ethics as a theory is not new. It was the dominant way that the ancient Greeks thought about morality. The thought leaders of Western civilization (Aristotle, Plato, Epicurus, Socrates, etc) argued about the specifics, but their discourse was couched in the language of virtue ethics.
Speaking of language, it's difficult to talk about virtue ethics without using some words that aren't in everyday language. Let's define a few terms quickly.
A virtue is a character trait or disposition that helps one to flourish. More on this in a moment.
Telos can be thought of as an aim, goal, purpose, or end. One's telos might be said to be their purpose in life. Note that telos can apply to more than just people. The telos of a knife is to cut things. The telos of a pen is to transfer ink to paper. The telos of a chef is to prepare food.
Arete means excellence, perhaps fulfillment.
Eudaimonia is a state of being that can best be described as human flourishing, althought lifelong happiness is another way to say it.
These words allow one to begin to grok virtue ethics. The Greeks understood eudaimonia (human flourishing) to be the ultimate purpose of life (i.e. the telos). Every person inhabits certain roles in life. Father, daughter, politician, electrician, soldier, doctor.
The means to eudaimonia is to fulfill one's roles excellently, to execute them with arete. To kick ass. Those habits and character traits that lead people to consistently and daily fulfill their roles with arete can be thought of as virtues. Any habits or personality traits that block or hamper one from fulfilling one's role excellently are vices.
In pure English: Discover your roles in life. Develop habits and character traits that enable you to kick ass in the fulfillment of your roles. These habits and practices of kicking ass result in a lifelong flourishing. This is what it means to live the good life, the moral life.
Okay, But How Do I Know What My Roles Are?
The challenge is to figure out what your roles actually are. This was a more obvious task to the Greeks, because their society was very explicit about this sort of thing. We moderns are a bit more angsty about roles and purpose. One way to start thinking about your roles is to apply the four-fold test:
- Are you well qualified/skilled/competent for the role? Don't volunteer for roles you suck at.
- Is the role socially valuable? In other words, does it also contribute to the flourishing of society?
- Is the role socially valued? Will society permit or reward you for performing the role?
- Do you enjoy being in this role?
Notice the emphasis on society. To the Greeks, morality outside of the context of society – the polis was impossible. Morality, telos, eudaimonia, were meaningful only in their relationship to society. They would have thought of Robinson Crusoe as a dead man walking. Citizenship was everything.
Fine, But How to Determine Moral Acts?
No group of people have ever agreed on a definitive list of virtues. That's actually good; societies and cultures change, and the way in which people inhabit their roles change along with the cultures.
The following four methods allow one to begin to grapple with the virtues:
- Use the 4-fold test to determine one's proper roles, and then figure out how to fulfill them excellently.
- Ask yourself "What sort of person would I become by doing this if I made it a habit?"
- Ask what your role model would do? Virtue ethics gives a new meaning to "role model", doesn't it?
- Ask where the act lies on the Golden Mean. This was Aristotle's theory that virtues could always be found to be the mean between two vices of excess and deficiency. Courage is the Golden Mean between rashness and cowardice; generousness is the Golden Mean between spendthriftness and miserliness.
What About All The Other Theories?
Most recent Western ethical theories out there revolve around rules. They're focused on actions (this kind of action is good, this kind of action is bad). There are complicated systems of evaluating the actions based on different rules. But it becomes impossible to find a finite set of rules that cover every circumstance. Those systems that attempt to wind up begging the question.
Maybe searching for the right set of rules is the wrong way to think about ethics.
Maybe ethics should be agent-centered rather than act-centered.
Maybe instead of asking the question, "What rules should I follow?", I should ask "What sort of person should I be?"
Whatever roles are yours to fulfill, remember:
Kick ass.

As a standard action, a desert drake can spit a ball of electrically charged sand that bursts into a cloud. This attack has a range of 60 feet and deals 3d6 points of damage plus 4d8 points of electricity damage in a 15-foot-radius spread (Reflex DC 19 for half). The cloud remains for 1d4 rounds, dealing no damage but otherwise acting as obscuring mist. Once a desert drake uses its breath, it cannot do so again for 1d6 rounds. The save DC is Constitution-based.
Savage Bite (Ex)
A desert drake applies 1-1/2 times its Strength modifier to damage dealt with its bite attack, and it threatens a critical hit on a 19-20.
Speed Surge (Ex)
Three times per day as a swift action, a desert drake can draw on its draconic heritage for a boost of strength and speed that allows it to take an additional move action that round.
Environment warm deserts
Organization solitary, pair, or rampage (3-12)
Treasure standard
Among the fiercest of their kind, desert drakes exhibit a lust for destruction as merciless as any desert storm. These fierce, ambush predators hunt by finding high perches among rocky outcroppings and surveying their surroundings. When likely prey wanders into sight, a desert drake dives into the sand and burrows toward its quarry or flies low with cover from dunes or other outcroppings. Drawing near the likely path of its victims, it bursts from the sand or dives from above to catch foes off guard, preferring to attack targets that exhibit the most fear first. Before enemies can recover from the initial onslaught, a desert drake exhales a cloud of electrified dust, using its superior senses to press the attack. Mated pairs of desert drakes hunt larger prey and groups of victims, and rampages of the beasts might gather near overland trade routes to devour whole caravans.
A typical desert drake measures 15 feet long from nose to tail tip, has a supple, wormlike build, and weighs about 2,500 pounds.

Restaurants in Tallinn
by Asko Plaado - Your Event Manager in Tallinn
Save the trouble of having to search through Tallinn restaurant reviews to find a good place to eat. Tallinn Out There has put together a complete list of the best restaurants in Tallinn.
Gourmet Restaurants
Tallinn has plenty of gourmet options to choose from and usually served for half the price of what it would cost in most other European capitals. Try Restaurant Horisont for contemporary European cuisine with an unexpected twist or Praat, which is situated right on the beach.
Laid-back Restaurants
Fish & Wine offers, as the name implies, great fish dishes and wine. But vegetarians and meat lovers can also find their picks on the menu. Peppersack is situated in the middle of the Old Town and serves delicious food all through the day together with their famous beer, made according to an historical recipe. Goodwin Steak House is Tallinn's only American Styled Steak house.
Traditional Restaurants
To try outstanding traditional Estonian food head to the medieval styled Olde Hansa, and for more contemporary Estonian cooking we recommend Von Krahli Aed. Estonian cuisine has been heavily influenced by German and Scandinavian cuisine, so it is not strange that you can find a great German restaurant in Tallinn such as Baieri Kelder, or a Scandinavian influenced place such as Sfäär. With almost 40% of the city's population being Russians, Tallinn is also a great place to indulge in Russian cuisine, and Vene Söögituba is a great place to do so.
Tallinn Out There can also help you book a hotel for your stay in Tallinn.

Fertility Assessment
This in-clinic assessment includes a blood test for key markers of your fertility, an ultrasound of your ovaries, a medical history review, a consultation with a fertility specialist, and a personalized plan for your next steps.
What's Included
The fertility assessment is the first step of the egg freezing or IVF process, or just a way to learn more about your fertility. The assessment includes all of the below, but laboratory fees may be extra if not covered by insurance.
A Blood Test for Fertility-Related Hormones
Hormones involved in the ovulation process can be measured to provide a better sense of your current ovarian reserve. The Anti-Mullerian Hormone (AMH), which is released by your eggs as they grow, is one of the most reliable measures of your ovarian reserve. Your levels of AMH levels can be measured through a simple blood test.
An Ultrasound for the Follicles on Your Ovaries
Follicles are small bumps on your ovaries that contain the eggs released every cycle during menstruation. The number of follicles detected can indicate the number of eggs available in a given month.
A Physical Exam and Medical History Review
Your age, lifestyle, medical history, and genetic background can all contribute to your fertility. These factors will be assessed and taken into account by our fertility specialists when creating a personalized plan.
A Personalized Plan for Your Next Steps
You will have a 1:1 meeting with one of our fertility specialists to discuss your results and your family planning goals. The specialist will work with you to come up with a personalized plan that works for you.

Events come in all shapes and sizes. Perhaps you are creating a kick arse celebration for your self. Maybe a wedding. Or even a surprise homecoming for your best mate. We love to plan parties of all shapes and sizes, perhaps our favourite is the dinner party.
Throwing a dinner party can be a classy way to welcome people into your social circle. We have found dinner parties are a great way to say hey to any new people.
Maybe it's meeting your best mates new boyfriend or the better half's long lost aunt. A dinner party is the best way to do it.
How to plan for a dinner party.
Do you or your guests have any dietary requirements, how about dietary preferences?
Now you have this info, it's time to consider what you want to prepare for your party.
Here's how to decide what to cook:
- Are there any dishes you are comfortable cooking?
- Are there any family recipes you would like to share with your guests?
- Do you have any simple recipes that are your favourite, you don't want to over stretch yourself so keep it simple?
- How many courses do you want to serve?
- Do you have a budget you want to stick to for the party?
What we suggest.
Start with bubbles and a platter to welcome your guests, either a cheese platter or antipasto platter with fresh bread and crackers.
Platters can be casual start to your dinner party and a nice way to get to know your guests.
Move to the table and start with a simple shared meal, like a pasta dish or a roast with plenty of sides to compliment like roasted vegetables or a green salad. We suggest shared dishes so your guests can serve themselves from the middle of the shared table. This will free you up as the host to eat and enjoy the dish together.
When it comes to dessert, be prepared. Cook or prepare this ahead of time. Have single serves of your dessert dishes ready to serve so when it is time to have your sweets: just grab, garnish and go!
Other things to consider.
Adding a simple printed menu or a name card is a nice way to say you are thinking about someone.
We love to grab a small gift (like a hand made block or box of chocolates) to gift to our guests and take away with them.
Flowers: Always add some flowers to your table. Make sure they are in a vase that doesn't take up your entire table, so your guests aren't trying to dodge the case to have an easy chat.
Alcohol: this is a tricky one, alcohol supply should be about making sure your guests have a lovely evening. We recommend about 2 or so glasses over the evening. But it really is up to you and your guests, keep a bottle of bubbles, red a white on hand just in case.
What to bring: your guests will often ask what they can bring. We suggest you ask your guests to bring a bottle of wine to share. Or bubbles to start the evening.
Place setting inspiration.
Here are a few place setting ideas

In his statement introducing Global Navigators, curator Murray Horne writes: "We navigate with ease today with online directions and satellite signaling." Can these words truly come from someone in Pittsburgh — a city so geographically confusing that navigation by GPS is virtually impossible? Seriously though, digital media have certainly altered the way we travel, explore and understand our planet.
As part of the Pittsburgh Cultural Trust's Distinctively Dutch Festival, Global Navigators shows the work of eight contemporary artists who live in the Netherlands. Shared among three different spaces — Wood Street Galleries, 707 Penn Gallery and Space — the exhibition presents work that investigates the idea of geographic exploration, both physical and virtual, in an attempt to "embrace and extend the historical context of Dutch exploration, charting a contemporary expedition with new media across emerging globalization."
The exhibition is ultimately a strange mix of pieces that fit together only loosely. It's kind of a stretch to connect Marnix de Nijs's "Physiognomic Scrutinizer" to the general theme. The piece, which mimics a security checkpoint, functions more as a critique of cultural norms as it snaps a picture of the viewer and matches his or her facial features with a person of some notoriety from a pre-selected database.
Mark Boulos' "No Permanent Address" is a slightly better fit, as it examines the way ideologies cross borders. But this video installation is more about the persistence of a particular political philosophy than any kind of territorial navigation. Boulos' process could be considered a type of expedition, as he lived for months among the New Peoples' Army, a group of Maoist guerillas in the Philippines. But rather than function as a travelogue, the film seeks to present the human side of insurgency.
Like Boulos, Guido van der Werve also traveled to a remote spot fraught with hardship and an element of danger. For "Nummer negen, The day I didn't turn with the world," he stood at the geographic North Pole and slowly rotated in the same spot for 24 hours. His short video is both wistful and whimsical. Accompanied by a musical score that he composed and performed, it documents his endurance performance in time-lapse and functions as a meditation on time and geography. Van der Werve's other video, "Nummer acht, Everything is going to be alright," is more successful at achieving a dramatic tension that verges on slapstick. In it, a lone figure trudges across a frozen landscape, followed alarmingly close by a hulking barge that slices through the ice behind him.
Van der Werve uses landscape for visual effect, something painters have done since antiquity. But the term "landscape" actually derives from the Dutch word "landschap," and in the 16th century, artists began to consider the landscape as its own subject matter, mostly because a growing Protestant middle class was seeking non-religious art. For his piece "Horizons," Geert Mul uses digital reproductions of landscape paintings from the collection of the Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen, in Rotterdam, to create an interactive projection. The movements of the viewer cause the vistas to change and the images to expand and contract along a shared horizon line.
For "Unleashed Content," Peter Bogers compiled an entirely different sort of visual catalogue. His video installation interprets the exhibition theme broadly by "navigating" online. The result is an astounding amalgamation of video documentation showing private lives now made public. On a grid of 36 videos connected to 36 speakers, both extraordinary and mundane activities play out across cultures. For example, Bogers types "flip flop slap" into an online video archive, and the search results fill a grid of 36 images, each focusing on a different woman's feet as she casually slaps her flip-flop.
Whereas Bogers' piece encompasses ideas of "global culture," Gerard Holthuis' "Hong Kong (HKG)" relies on the specificity of a very particular place and time. Filmed when there was still an airport in Victoria Harbour, this short contemplative work shows airplanes gliding like great white sharks above the buildings and mountains of Hong Kong. The subtleties of this grainy black-and-white film, unfortunately, get lost amidst the ambient noise and glare of the crowded show at Space. In fact, there are only two sculptural installations in the entire exhibition that don't have some kind of video and audio component. Folkert de Jong's "The Balance: Traders Deal," shows four unsavory characters perched atop barrels and pallets offering trinkets, a clear reference to Dutch exploration and colonialism. And Karen Sargsyan's inscrutable Baroque tableau includes figures made from cut paper whose expressions and gestures read as either exuberant or defeated.
The exhibition as a whole is an eccentric mix, but it offers an interesting interpretation of how the concepts of navigation and exploration have changed in the digital age.
