There were over 1,000 nominations for twenty finalists to receive the TiE20 Industry Awards representing five segments: IOT/Sensors; Fintech; Transportation/Mobility; Health/Fitness; Manufacturing Devices/Augmented Reality/Artificial Intelligence. On Nov 9, the winners were honored at TiEcon Detroit 2017.
Of the 20 winners, five companies have been or are involved with New Enterprise Forum coaching. They were: Foodstand, CARROT pass, LLC, TwoScoreTwo, Slideless and DiverseNote.
Interviewer: I understand that your goal is $18,000. How much have you raised so far?
Christina: We've raised close to $6,000 from 100+ people.
Interviewer: What are some tips about doing a Kickstarter campaign that you would recommend others to follow?
Christina: The biggest tip I have in trying to fund a Kickstarter campaign is to consider the entire ecosystem of the company. This isn't just the city where you work and the people on your team. You have to think about all the different groups you interact with and who has supported you in the past. For us that might mean university departments, game development meetups, or fellow startups.
Interviewer: What is it like watching the results come in? Are you biting your nails?
Christina: Thrilling at first! Each refresh of the page, we'd see the numbers go up. But every Kickstarter campaign has a plateau or lull period, and that's when the nail-biting comes in.
Interviewer: How will the funds be used at Spellbound?
Christina: We'll be using the funds to develop the augmented reality content for an award-winning children's book called Charlotte and the Quiet Place. It's the charming story of a little girl trying to find inner peace in the midst of noisy environments. This is the perfect calming book for the children in the hospitals we work with (or any child feeling overwhelmed), so we're looking forward to bringing it to life through our app.
Interviewer: What are your next steps after the campaign in terms of milestones?
Christina: After the campaign, we will be hard at work developing more tools for therapists, including creating 3D experiences for Charlotte and the Quiet Place. We are also wrapping up our seed round of investment so that we can expand into community clinics and private practices. We will also be looking to expand our sales and customer success team.
Interviewer: What milestones has SpellBound achieved so far?
Christina: SpellBound has been quite the startup journey. In August 2016, we received our first big piece of press in the Detroit News - it was a story of how SpellBound was helping a 7-year-old who had had a brain aneurysm. In January 2017, we signed our first customer: Lucile-Packard Children's Hospital at Stanford, and today we now have 15 hospital customers across 9 states.
At the Oct NEF Pitch Pit Competition, three entrepreneurs faced off and presented their business ideas to the panel of judges. Anthony Azzi of Deelio was declared the winner. Here is what he had to say about his experience.
Interviewer: What was the Pitch Pit experience like for you?
Anthony: My favorite part of Pitch Pit was meeting everyone there! There were so many interesting entrepreneurs, scientists, artists, and engineers to meet. I got so caught up in conversation with all of them beforehand, that I almost forgot I was there to pitch! It was a great experience, and a unique opportunity to network with people of diverse professional backgrounds.
Interviewer: How did the Tech Town Detroit DTX Launch prepare you for this presentation?
Anthony: Our pitch would not be what it is today, without DTX Launch. They taught us how to identify our customer segment, and understand their problems. This all goes into crafting a pitch. You need a deep understanding of your customer, and their problems, so that you can convince a panel of judges, or investors, that your business is viable.
Interviewer: How has customer discovery helped you?
Anthony: Customer discovery has been such an important process for us. You learn so much by getting out of the building, and having a face-to-face conversation with a potential customer, in her own place of business. You gain insights that you cannot find on Google, or anywhere else, other than by actually talking to people. By doing so, you are building a set of proprietary data that no one else in the world has.
Interviewer: What was it like to win the $205 Pitch Pit prize?
Anthony: We were very happy to win Pitch Pit. Knowing that over half of the prize actually came from small audience donations, makes it even better. We are very thankful to NEF, and to everyone in the audience who contributed. The money will be put towards our server costs, which allows us to host our website https://deelio.co and support our mobile app.
Interviewer: What are your next steps in growing Deelio?
Anthony: Our next step is to launch our beta in 2018. This is where we can put everything we have learned from customer discovery to the test. We have some businesses that we are very excited to work with, to test out Deelio in the real world. We hope that the businesses included in our beta act as the seed to the Deelio Network, and that we can continue to grow and expand to various cities in Michigan and the United States!
Sam Savant was the NEF Showcase presenter for TwoScoreTwo a blockchain commerce company. Sam described the problem and his unique solution to global commerce: data leaks and tampering, payment security, and impersonation.
Blockchain technology is revolutionizing the way organizations share and update data that is impervious to tampering. Conceptually, it is similar to a Google spreadsheet that is shared multiple times, even thousands of time across a network. The blockchain network is used to update the spreadsheet as users update the content. On the network, there is no "original" for a hacker to alter; thus, the genius behind the technology.

On Nov 16, Accelerate Michigan will host its annual business competition at the Masonic temple in Detroit. They are the premier event in the Great Lakes region for high-growth companies and venture investors awarding $1,000,000 in cash and in-kind prizes.
New Enterprise Forum (NEF) is proud to have members participate in this event and have the prestige of having coached 10 of the 36 semi-finalists. It is critical that entrepreneurs learn what is important to investors when pitching their business for funding. New Enterprise Forum has been helping entrepreneurs get noticed by investors for over 30 years.
The Sep. panelists were: Prem Bodagala, Director, Invest Michigan (MI Pre-Seed Fund 2.0); Mike Flanagan, Director of Capital Programs, Ann Arbor SPARK; Stewart Nelson, Angel Investor and CEO, Mayasil, LLC; along with Bill Mayer, Vice President Entrepreneurial Services, Ann Arbor SPARK, serving as moderator.
Companies can raise too much money too fast where the financials do not support capital needs. As a result, entrepreneurs can give away more of their business than they have to.
Have the convertible debt convert time for about 18 months, and negotiate to 24 months if you can.
Convertible debt where a company borrows money from investors which is later converted to equity. It is difficult to value companies with little traction. Investors are favoring priced rounds where the company has enough traction to value it. Being over or under valued can hurt the company. Investors look to double or triple the valuation between investment rounds so the 'price needs to be just right' – the Goldie Locks principle.
Many thanks to the panelists for their insightful expertise.
A team of coaches was requested by Crain's Detroit Business to coach teams participating in the upcoming Detroit Homecoming pitch competition.
The group gathered in a conference room of Crain Communication's headquarters in Detroit, where the entrepreneurs presented their two-minute pitches to the coaching panel, which consisted of Barbara Boldt, Gary Hazen, Stew Nelson and Stefan Sysko. The entrepreneurs received advice on perfecting their pitch, and on improving their presentation skills. The teams represented a wide variety of industries and stages, from tech startups to established non-profits and retail businesses looking to expand.
Now in its fourth year, Crain's Detroit Homecoming is an annual gathering of Detroit expats who are invited back home to Detroit to reconnect via a three-day immersive event filled with seminars, networking and tours.
Detroit Homecoming IV takes place from September 13th to 15th. For more information on Detroit Homecoming, visit www.detroithomecoming.com. The event is invitation-only.
Circadian Risk – Dan Young (www.circadianrisk.co): Circadian Risk dramatically improves the physical security risk analysis process so Security Consultants and their clients (organizations) can actively reduce the probability and severity of security incidents.
What is a "lean" startup? This workshop begins by introducing the concept and principles and outlines the methodology of lean. Avoid spending inordinate amounts of time, energy, and money only to fail for reasons you could have predicted. We then move to how you determine whether there's actually a money-making business around your great product idea. Come to this workshop to learn about "Customer Discovery:" the process of validating your hypotheses to quickly determine how to move forward for success.
A continental breakfast and light lunch will be available.

We believe that Jesus, the God-man, died for our actions that violate the laws of God (sin). He was buried and on the third day arose never to die again. We believe that God planned Jesus' death as His way to satisfy His penalty declared against our sins.
We believe that Jesus is the sustainer of all life. He answers our prayers, cares for our daily needs and gives us purposeful meaning in life as we move toward eternal life with Him.
We believe that all who repent of their sins and trust Jesus to take them to Heaven, based on His finished work on the cross, will enjoy eternal life with God.
Accept that because you sinned you owe God a debt that you cannot pay. Romans 6:23: "For the wages of sin is death." Just as there are wages for good, there is punishment for wrong doing. The penalty for sin is eternal separation from God in hell.
Believe that Jesus died in your place to pay your sin debt to God. Romans 5:8: "But God proved His love for us in that while we were sinners Christ died for us." Jesus died as our substitute and paid our debt to God in full. God accepted Jesus' death on our behalf and will forgive us and accept us into His family as soon as we repent of our sins and trust Jesus as our Savior and Lord.
May we help you word a prayer? Just saying these words will not save you. However, if the Holy Spirit is drawing you to Jesus (John 6:44) and you have decided to trust Jesus as your Savior and follow Him as your Lord, God will answer your prayer to be saved. Pray a prayer like this: "Dear Jesus, I know that I am a sinner. Please forgive me for my sins. I now trust You as my personal Savior and receive You as my Lord. Please come into my heart and save my soul from hell. Please take me to heaven when I die. Thank You for saving me, Jesus. Amen."
Now that you have decided to follow Jesus and confessed the same with your mouth, your first step is to follow Jesus in baptism and become part of a Bible-preaching church (Matthew 28:19; Acts 2:47; Hebrews 10:24, 25). Church attendance and fellowship will help you grow in your understanding of how to follow Jesus every day and honor Him with your life. Serenity Free Will Baptist Church would love to help you. Please contact us if you have questions. Please let us know that you have decided to follow Jesus so we can baptize you and help you further grow in the Lord.
We believe churches are strengthened through association with churches of like practice and belief. Serenity Church is a member of the Atlantic Canada Association of Free Will Baptists.

I quit ffxiv quite a while ago. I'm returning annd notice that most of the combat routine makers i used (kefka/omni) have quit.
Does anyone have advice for a good combat rotation bot/routine (doesn't have to be rebornbuddy, heck, i might be interested in a different option considering the chhanges they made recently).
It has to run rotations at max level well enough for dutys.
Our Combat system is still in early beta, but Assist Mode is already available and capable of performing automated battle rotations.
At the moment it is not yet optimized for endgame, but we continue releasing incremental updates on a regular basis.
We are planning lots of additional features with precise Rotations Customization and Raiding support.

Text, images, files and folders that you copy in Windows or a Windows program are automatically added to the Clipboard Master multi-clipboard. The newest entry is always added to the top of the list in the multi-clipboard.
Example: You have to paste multiple cells form Excel into a Word document. Use Clipboard Master to simply copy the cells from Excel one after the other and then switch to Word. You can then paste the copied text all at once. In doing so, you can select whether the text should be pasted separately by blank space, tab, new line or another character.
Or you run across a recipe collection in the Internet and would like to send links to certain recipes to an acquaintance via email. Use Clipboard Master to copy the links of the recipes one after another and then paste them in the desired order in your email program. In contrast to the Windows clipboard, you do not have to constantly switch between the browser and your email program; instead you can first "collect" all of the links and then paste them into your email in a single second step.
Automatic copying to the multi-clipboard: All entries copied to the Windows clipboard are also copied by Clipboard Master.
Paste from the multi-clipboard via key combination, double clicking on an entry in Clipboard Master or using the mouse via the Clipboard Master tray icon.
Directly paste the last 1 to 10 entries.
The entries also remain available after turning off the computer.
You can define the settings a time after which the entries should be automatically deleted.
All key combinations can be changed in the Clipboard Master settings.
This also works in Windows 8/8.1 apps.

Q: JIRA Rest API call returning " the request was rejected because no multipart boundary was found " on posting attachment via ajax call I am posting attachment to JIRA rest api through an ajax call but it fails in "the request was rejected because no multipart boundary was found ". I followed the instructions provided on jira doc but still facing this issue. Here is code snipped :
var imageDataUrl = canvas.toDataURL();
$.ajax({
 url: "https://example.atlassian.com/rest/api/2/issue/" + issueKeyid + "/attachments",
 type: 'POST',
 data: {
  file: imageDataUrl
 },
 processData: false,
 contentType: 'multipart/form-data',
 beforeSend: function(xhr) {
  xhr.setRequestHeader("Authorization", "Basic " + btoa(username + ":" + password));
  xhr.setRequestHeader("X-Atlassian-Token","no-check");
 },
 success: function(data) {
  alert("issue created");

 },
 error: function(data) {
  console.log(data);
 }
});

Here imageDataUrl is obtained from html canvas method asDataUrl(canvas).
I tried with curl and everything works fine.
What went wrong with code. Is there anything else I have to consider ?

A: After few hiccups I figured out the way to post attachment to jira. There was something the needed to be done before passing base64 image directly to jira.
Here is my final version of code.
                            var blob = BG.dataURItoBlob(items.screenshotImg);
                            var fd = new FormData();
                            fd.append("file", blob);
                            fd.append('comment', "img");
                            fd.append('minorEdit', "true");

                            $.ajax({
                                url: "https://"+jiraUrl+"/rest/api/2/issue/"+issueKeyid+"/attachments",
                                type: 'POST',
                                data: fd,
                                processData: false,
                                contentType: false,
                                headers: {
                                    "X-Atlassian-Token": "nocheck"
                                },
                                success: function(data) {
                                    status = "success";
                                    console("success");

                                },
                                error:function(data){
                                    status = "failed";
                                    console("Something went wrong !!");
                                }
                            });

Here I am converting the base64 image url to blob data first then sending it as a FormData object as a whole to server.
//base64 to blob data
function dataURItoBlob(dataURI) {
    // convert base64/URLEncoded data component to raw binary data held in a string
    var byteString;
    if (dataURI.split(',')[0].indexOf('base64') >= 0)
        byteString = atob(dataURI.split(',')[1]);
    else
        byteString = unescape(dataURI.split(',')[1]);

    // separate out the mime component
    var mimeString = dataURI.split(',')[0].split(':')[1].split(';')[0];

    // write the bytes of the string to a typed array
    var ia = new Uint8Array(byteString.length);
    for (var i = 0; i < byteString.length; i++) {
        ia[i] = byteString.charCodeAt(i);
    }

    return new Blob([ia], {type:mimeString});
},

A: Sorry about the late reply.
You might need to change the way you assigned your [$.ajax] method. Instead of passing a base 64 url image, You can pass the whole attachment file you wanted to upload that you will also get from your server side (e.g PHP) in which you can post your attachment using [curl].
Assume you've place your [file input] inside a [form] DOM element
<form id="frm-upload" name="frm_upload" enctype="multipart/form-data">
    <input type="text" name="input_text" />
    <input type="file" name="input_upload_file" />
</form>

<a class="upload"> Upload </a>

Then in your [ajax] callback
$(sElement).click(function(event) {
     event.preventDefault();
     var oFormData = new FormData($('#frm-upload')[0]); // Assuming this is your form
     $.ajax({
         url: '/dashboard/upload',
         type: 'POST',
         data: oFormData,
         contentType: false,
         processData: false,
         beforeSend: function(xhr) {
             xhr.setRequestHeader("Authorization", "Basic " + btoa('username' + ":" + 'password'));
             xhr.setRequestHeader("X-Atlassian-Token","no-check");
                },
         success : function(response) {
             console.log(response);
         }
    }, 'json');
});

Then you can get the uploaded file in PHP:
protected function upload()
{
    var_dump($_FILES); exit;
}

From which you can have the results:
array(1) {
["input_upload_file"]=>
    array(5) {
    ["name"]=>
    string(12) "service6.png"
    ["type"]=>
    string(9) "image/png"
    ["tmp_name"]=>
    string(14) "/tmp/php0bYNIY"
    ["error"]=>
    int(0)
    ["size"]=>
    int(1169)
  }
}

Which you can use [curl] to do this:
curl -D- -u admin:admin -X POST -H "X-Atlassian-Token: no-check" -F   "file=@service6.png" http://example.atlassian.com/rest/api/2/issue/TEST-123/attachments

As documented in Jira's Post Attachment API:
https://docs.atlassian.com/jira/REST/cloud/?_ga=1.22532412.681630190.1490518356#api/2/issue/{issueIdOrKey}/attachments
Hope this helps for your case.

This morning we've seen a slow but steady decline in price on BTC/USD.
We'll see that price started heading south as a number of technicals came into play. Firstly, notice the long bullish candle that closed significantly above the upper Bollinger band? (at around 634, marked with a blue arrow). Look at what happened on the next candle. An immediate bearish candle, without any wicks, with it's body being almost as long as the previous candle.
Then in the following couple of candles, we can see how the Stochastics turned around whilst being undersold, and the Accelerator Oscillator and the Awesome Oscillator had turned bearish as well.
As a result, price fell down until the afternoon, where it hit a low of 605. Interestingly, this was yet another major closing beyond the (this time lower) Bollinger band, marked with a green arrow. Unsurprisingly, price reacted and bounced back up to the 23.6% Fib level.
However, the overall trend is still bearish, so I would expect price to flicker between the 38.2% Fib level and today's low for the remainder of the day, before possibly breaking the 605 low later this evening.

The key to survival
Croatian pianist Ivo Pogorelich plays with a passion that comes from having more than just musical scores to settle. He talks to John Cunningham
Remember Sarajevo? Remember Dubrovnik? Ivo Pogorelich does. He's taken on a second career as a bridge-builder, but the result is that he spends more time, not less, at the piano. On top of classical concerts and recording sessions, he's raising funds to restore lives and landscapes shattered in the Bosnian war. Last week, a London recital to help repair monuments in Croatia; before that, five concerts in Kuwait for a hospital for the mothers and children of Sarajevo.
Pogorelich is also doing a spot of personal bridge building. After almost 20 years of acclaim, he's still something of an enigma. He is now 40, but it still rankles that, early in his career, he was portrayed in a "tasteless and vulgar" way - his words - by the British media. The image was of a turbulent genius emerging from a turbulent part of Europe, whose playing enslaved his fans.
It is impossible to deny that drama has surrounded him. Born in Belgrade, his father was Croat and Roman Catholic; his mother Serb. In the third round of the 1980 Warsaw Chopin Competition, he was eliminated: a Cold War carve-up because Moscow wanted to win. (One judge, Martha Argerich, quit to support him.) Then came marriage to Alice Kezeradze, the mentor, several years his senior, whom he met while studying in Moscow.
Consolation for the Warsaw disappointment quickly came: a place on the international circuit. As a soloist, he made waves on the platform with his silk suits, looks to die for and a mostly romantic repertoire. Some critics deemed his technique dazzling though unorthodox. But audiences loved it. Then came discordant soundwaves as his native Yugoslavia was dismembered, and the multi-ethnic, multi-cultural Balkan package split. Pogorelich became a Croatian citizen many years ago, and decided to boycott Belgrade in 1987, sensing the brewing nastiness. He is wary of talking about that Balkan war; even more so about Kosovo. He seals up like a walled city concealing its wounds. Off duty in a track suit, he's like a combative bouncer, icily polite. No joy in his laugh.
Growing up in Belgrade, he was acutely aware of the cultural and ethnic complexities. In the second world war, his father tried to join the resistance at 16. He was captured by Germans and narrowly escaped being hung. His mother was twice interned in a concentration camp, and family members persecuted.
His conclusion is that the colossal brutality of the century, in which the words holocaust and genocide were coined, affects all who witness it. This, says Pogorelich - who isn't afraid of big, bold ideas - will eventually feed our spiritual evolution. To show what he means, he points to the Holocaust museums, "which elevate our perception of what suffering on a grand scale is".
He chooses to be hopeful, but you sense it is with a heavy heart. The best he can do as an artist is to back rebuilding projects. That maternity clinic in Sarajevo, to serve the entire community, will cost $140m. What he raises is, he says, a drop in the ocean. But the citizens, stoic when war came, have won his ongoing commitment.
In Kuwait, his hosts were generous donors. He offered, in return, Chopin's music for "its massive value in terms of communication between cultures". Kuwait, he points out, knows about the traumas of invasion. It was an appropriate place to seek alms for Sarajevo.
Pogorelich also offered a Chopin programme in London, and four scherzos feature on his latest CD. And, though he's recorded works by at least 14 other composers for Deutsche Grammophon, Chopin is probably his best-known bridge to the public.
Some critics have noted a mellowing of mood: Norman Lebrecht in the Daily Telegraph, for instance, wrote that the music from the new CD "is no longer inaudible in pianissimi and unbearable in loud passages". Lebrecht added that, amid the sound and fury, there was a hint of an enlarged perspective "which may, or may not, reflect his recent tragedies".
Pogorelich bounds along his bridge of explanation to emphasise that he's very much against the press making personal remarks and "suddenly discovering maturity in my playing". The blatant fiasco at Warsaw all those years ago had the ironic effect of making him a bestselling pianist. But Pogorelich hated the pop treatment, and still shudders to recall it.
"I was called a Frankenstein of the piano; devil of the keyboard; a pianist who performed in leather trousers. I've never owned a pair. Anything but my playing was discussed. And now, having seen that I was not just the flavour of the season, that I was not undone by what they wrote, they discovered signs of maturity - and also wrinkles on my face which, of course, is charming, but lacking in substance." In fact, neither the wrinkles (almost invisible) nor the ponytail detract from his passionate seriousness.
Pogorelich is as energetic a settler of scores as he is an interpreter of classical ones. "One simple fact is forgotten: I am a musician with a diploma. I am equipped with authorisation to do my work. I am a qualified musician. The results didn't come out of the blue." He objects to his portrayal as a pianist who has suddenly acquired maturity as he enters the fifth decade of his life. There were long years of study after he was sent to Moscow as a 12-year-old. He has referred to time wasted with wrong teachers, and it was only when he met Kezeradze in 1976 (they married four years later) that he got on the right track.
Indeed, his career has seen long periods of pain, suffered in private, along with adulation and affluence (he has a home in Switzerland and a luxurious base in the heart of Surrey). At times, the physical pain has been disabling. As a child he was treated with second-generation antibiotics for rheumatic fever; this has affected the tendons of his hands, which are surprisingly boyish.
The most wounding of his sorrows was the death of his wife in 1996. Anyone who opens the booklet contained in the new CD sees a photograph of the golden couple juxtaposed with these words: "This is the last recording that Alice Kezeradze and Ivo Pogorelich worked on together. We are all thinking of Alice, who is no longer with us."
He can see a question about that partnership forming - and won't allow it. The most it's permissible to ask is whether it is important for professional musicians, particularly soloists, to have one mentor. "Yes, it is necessary to have trust in another musician; something that is, unfortunately, less and less observed," he replies. He laments that music schools don't emphasise the importance of this.
For all his altruistic inclinations, Pogorelich believes in shutters as well as bridges. We may never know how he is coping with his loss in terms of his music. He stresses that his career has always evolved. He mentions new projects; for example, he is studying a set of 10 Spanish dances by Enrique Granados. And he is interested in the music of other cultures.
Then, with a weary pleasure, there's just enough energy left to talk about his big enthusiasm for architecture, which extends to designing several rooms in his Surrey home. It was the family's base while Alice's son (she was married when she met Pogorelich) was at school. But now he's selling up. "It's not a place for a widower," he says.
"Home," said Philip Larkin, "is so sad. It stays as it was left, shaped to the comfort of the last to go, as if to win them back." Could such a line be true of customised sumptuousness in Surrey? For Pogorelich, it is.
• Pogorelich's CD of Chopin's four Scherzi is out now on DG.

EDITOR'S NOTE: This story is part of a series prepared on behalf of the tourism agency of the Genesee County Chamber of Commerce. The new tourism guide was recently published and is available at the chamber's office and will soon be available at other tourism locations. The official tourism site for Genesee County is VisitGeneseeNY.com.
Some people leave their mark on the land by building highways and shopping centers.
Paul Osborn is leaving his mark by making Genesee County's parks more accessible and inviting to visitors.
Osborn started his parks career 12 years ago after getting a degree in landscape architecture, but he thinks he made the right choice when he decided to apply to the county for a parks job.
"It was an opportunity to be part of creating something that will be there forever," Osborn said. "It my chance to create a legacy, to leave my stamp on things."
When Osborn took over as parks supervisor, the Genesee County Park in Bethany was in pretty bad shape, he said, and Dewitt Recreational Area was less than two years old and needed a lot of improvements.
"It was an opportunity to show what I could do for the community," said Osborn, a native of Oakfield who still lives in Genesee County with his wife of 12 years, Melinda, and their two children.
The vast Genesee County Park, covering 430 acres, was beset by disrepair when Osborn started. The bridges were getting old, the pavilions needed fixing, the playgrounds weren't up to standards and the facilities management structure was just a hut with a dirt floor.
Slowly, Osborn was able to rehabilitate the park infrastructure, and improve access for people with disabilities.
Today, the park is one of the gems to attract people to Genesee County.
With more than 150,000 trees, which were planted between 1885 and 1935, the park was the first county forest established in New York's history.
Its four acres of wetlands provide habitat for waterfowl. There are also five ponds, a few of which are good fishing spots.
Visitors can enjoy five picnic areas and four playgrounds. There are pavilions equipped with grills and restrooms at each area. Hikers, walkers, runners and long-distance skiers can enjoy more than 10 miles of marked and mapped trails.
There's also a baseball and football field, horseshoe pits, volleyball courts, and a sledding hill.
Dewitt Recreational Area, on Cedar Street in Batavia, is where Osborn has been able to exercise some of his creative energy.
While there was a master plan in place for Dewitt when he took over, it doesn't specify every detail of development. This allowed Osborne to choose the design of pavilions, select picnic tables and playground equipment and decide the best placement for them all.
And the park is still a work in progress.
Currently, it offers a state-of-the-art playground in easy view of either of its pavilions, plus a quarter-mile track, all on the edge of a large pond. The water is stocked each spring with brown trout, providing a lure to young anglers right in the city.
Since Osborn took over the parks, the Nature Center at Genesee County Park has also undergone its own kind of upgrades (the center is off Bethany Center Road, the last left before crossing the county line).
With the help of Judy Spring, environmental education specialist, programs have been added, displays made more interactive and marketing has been improved so local residents can stay apprised of what's going on at the center.
The 3,000-square-foot center was built in 1998. It offers a laboratory, a classroom, several display areas and a conference room. From the back porch, visitors are often able to view wildlife hanging out in their natural setting. The center is open year-round Thursday through Sunday, with hours varying according to the season.
"The nice thing about our parks is that there's something for everyone when they come," Osborn said.
While Osborn is no naturalist -- he considers himself a facilitator for the parks, and finds the right experts to help with forestry and wetlands management -- he does think the parks play an important role in a healthy community.
He frets about childhood obesity and that too many children today do not get enough opportunities to play in the dirt.
"Last year we had a small girl from Batavia who had never been outside in the woods," Osborn said. "She needed a leader to hold her hand because she had never been in the woods before.
"Here we are living in a rural community and there is a little girl who has never been in the woods. That's just shameful for society. We need the chance for natural experiences."


mysqli_fetch_object() вернет текущую строку результирующей таблицы в виде объекта, атрибуты которого будут соответствовать именам столбцов таблицы.
Важно заметить, что mysqli_fetch_object() задает значения свойств объекта до вызова его конструктора.
Только для процедурного стиля: Идентификатор результата запроса, полученный с помощью mysqli_query(), mysqli_store_result() или mysqli_use_result().
Имя класса, объект которого требуется инстанцировать, задать значения его свойств и вернуть. Если параметр не задан, будет возвращен объект stdClass.
Необязательный массив (array) параметров, которые будут переданы конструктору класса class_name.
Возвращает объект со строковыми свойствами, соответствующими значениям в выбранной строке или NULL, если в результирующем наборе нет доступных строк.
Замечание: Имена полей, возвращаемые этой функцией являются регистро-зависимыми.
Замечание: Эта функция устанавливает NULL-поля в значение NULL PHP.
mysqli_fetch_object() sets the properties of the object AFTER calling the object constructor. Not BEFORE as was in previous versions.
So behaviour has changed. Seems a bug but not sure if was done intentionally.
As indicated in the user comments of the mysql_fetch_object, it is important to realize that class fields get values assigned to them BEFORE the constructor is called.
will result in the ID being 0 because it is overridden by the constructor. Therefore, it is useful to check if the class field is already set.
Also note that the fields which will be assigned by fetch_object are case sensitive. If your table has the field "ID", it will result in the class field $ID being set. A simple work-around is to use aliases. I.e. "SELECT *, ID as id FROM myTable"
I hope this helps some people.
Please mind the difference between objects and arrays in PHP>=5: arrays are by value while objects are by reference.
I don't know why no one talk about this.
fetch_object is very powerful since you can instantiate an Object which has the methods you wanna have.
You can try like this..
$sql = "SELECT * FROM table ..."
Note : if the field is not defined in the class, fetch_object will add this field for you as public.
I checked the bug database and as long as your PHP installation is up to date, the order of setting properties and calling the constructor should now follow the order specified in the documentation. There was a little while that a patch had been introduced where it was happening the other way around but that has been fixed now.
You will get a fatal error "Cannot access empty property", this took me a while to track down!
Obviously your SQL really shouldn't do that, and should be fixed but I'm going to submit a feature request to ask for a better error message for that.
As a best practice, if you intend to use a defined class when using fetching_object(). Put the data obtaining code within a static method of the defined class. Otherwise, wherever you include the file (if not using an autoloader) the data connection will occur whether you want it to or not.
Call the static method to obtain an instance of the User class with your data applied to it.

St. Patty's is the obvious example, where the patron Saint of Ireland's religious contributions are largely overshadowed (at least in NYC) by overflowing rivers of Guinness and Jameson flowing into the mouths of drunken revelers who wouldn't know Erin if she was going bragh right in front of them.
Cinco de Mayo is another one of these appropriated holidays — take a moment, do you know what it celebrates? I'll admit I didn't know it myself until a few years ago, and only because the news was running stories about people's ignorance. Mexican Independence? Nope, that's on September 16th (and has an awesome subtitle of "Grito de Dolores" http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grito_de_Dolores). End of the Mexican-American War? No to that as well. In fact, Cinco de Mayo is a commemoration of the Battle of Puebla in 1862, where the Mexican army unexpectedly defeated the much stronger and larger French forces (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cinco_de_Mayo).
So much like St. Patty's, for most the holiday has become a celebration of inebriation — Cinco de Drinko, as it is actually advertised. I wish I could say that I celebrated in a more authentic spirit, but although I didn't have any tequila, I did indulge in another American appropriation of Mexican heritage — gooey, cheesy, meaty nachos. That's right, in this edition of Brief Bites we're taking a trip to Nachotown, care of one of the most highly lauded NY spots, Taqueria Diana.
The Set Up:
Looking back from the cashier into the long, narrow space of Taqueria Diana.
Taqueria Diana is located right off of St. Mark's Place on Second Ave, prime feeding grounds for pre-and-post bar-hopping NYU students. My NY dining list contains a disproportionate number of restaurants on St. Mark's, since the street and surrounding blocks are packed to the brim with eclectic spots, from classics like Mamoun's Falafel to Khyber Pass (serving Afghani food). In fact, Taqueria Diana is only a few blocks away from another California-Mexican taco spot, Otto's Tacos, which I hope to cover in another post.
The view from the back of the restaurant, where there are just a few counters with stools. You can see that cooking and prep make up most of the establishment.
I'd imagine real estate is at a premium in this area, so it should come as no shock that Taqueria Diana is only a step up from hole-in-the-wall-sized. Although there are a few bar-height counters and stools at the back of the restaurant, the space is dominated by the cooking/assembly/cashier counter. A small prep kitchen sits in the back. Unfortunately, I had brought 5 friends with me to Taqueria Diana, and we soon discovered that we'd have to take all of our food to go. For cheese-and-sauce heavy dishes like nachos, tacos, and quesadillas, that means cooling and congealing time. I say this having fully enjoyed the dishes I ate, but cautioning that an ideal Taqueria Diana experience should probably be capped at a group of 3.
The Bites:
Between the six of us we basically sampled all the categories on the menu — Jacob and I split the Pollo Nachos, Al Pastor Taco and Rajas Taco, Diana got the Al Pastor Nachos, Michael got a Pollo Burrito, and Dan and Laura split the Asada Nachos and a Pollo Quesadilla Suiza. We missed out on the straight-up Roast Chicken and assorted Sides, but covered all the proteins except for the Carnitas.
The impressive Pollo Nachos, visually underserved by the takeout container.
You should really look at Yelp for accurate pictures of the nachos, because the depth of the mountain of chips is hidden by their being crammed into a take-out box. Jacob's and my Pollo Nachos (chicken, chips, black beans, cheese, salsa, with added guacamole) seemed to be an endless, delicious vortex of cheese, guacamole and beans. I was pleasantly surprised by the quantity and quality of the chicken, which I assume is the same meat as offered in the Roast Chicken section. It was mostly sizable hunks of dark meat, juicy and well-seasoned, discernibly more flavorful than your average slices of grilled chicken breast. These nachos were expertly put together, as evinced by the existence of still crispy chips within the pile of semi-liquid condiments. Speaking of which, Taqueria Diana offers a number of salsa and sauces with which to top your dishes, available in unlimited quantities if you can dine in. This adds another layer of customization to the nachos, allowing to select a protein, type of beans, add on crema or guac, and then top with the sauces of your choosing. Unfortunately, our grand plan of dining al fresco in the courtyard by St. Mark's in the Bowery turned out to be flawed, as a brutal wind kicked up out of nowhere and left us shivering and shoveling Tex-Mex into our mouths. Jacob and I were so desperate to eat our food and get out of the cold that we failed to crack open even one of the sauces we'd thrown into our bag. Yet another reason to come back and dine in at Taqueria Diana. Honestly, though, I was very satisfied by their nachos. The chips were fresh and just slightly salty, the salsa was made of sweet tomatoes, the guacamole was smooth and rich with a strong avocado-forward flavor, and I even made an effort to up my spice tolerance the smallest bit by taking on the jalapenos. The only strange ingredient were rounds of raw carrot, which I can't say I've ever seen on nachos before, and barely made an impact taste or texture-wise.
The sadly soggy Rajas (on the bottom) and Al Pastor Tacos — promising in notion but not made for transit.
Alas, our tacos didn't hold up nearly as well. They were composed of thin, possibly hand-formed tortillas that soaked through during the transit and nacho-consumption period, literally falling to pieces when first picked up. Of the two fillings, I preferred the Al Pastor Taco (spit-roasted pork, corn tortilla, salsa, onion, cilantro) to the Rajas Taco (Poblanos, Corn tortilla, salsa, onion, cilantro), because most of what I got out of the Rajas was the heat from the peppers (still not too good at that spice thing, I guess). Despite the descriptions on the menu, our tacos seemed to have different toppings, the Rajas getting cotija cheese and sliced radishes, while the Al Pastor had lime and what looks like a squash blossom of some sort. The fact that everything was mushed together and muddled by the take-out box — which proved beneficial to the nachos — here left me tasting only the most prominent elements of the tacos, which ended up mostly being the meat from the Al Pastor. Taqueria Diana does seem to have a gift for proteins, however, since the pork was just as juicy and flavorful as the chicken. Doing a comparison between the regularly cooked carnitas and the spit-roasted al pastor might be another reason to return.
I mean, look how badass that hunk of Al Pastor pork is — worth another shot if eaten straight away.
The Last Licks:
All in all, I'd fully endorse a visit to Taqueria Diana, and hope everyone takes this as a cautionary tale of how NOT to do so. Even with all of the mishaps and weather-related misfortunes, the food was fresh, abundant, and packed with flavor. Except for the more proportionate tacos, Taqueria Diana's dishes can be easily shared, or serve as more than one meal — Diana couldn't finish her nachos, and although I didn't take a picture of it, the Quesadilla Suiza looked like an explosion of meat and cheese to put a Taco Bell Crunchwrap to shame (yes, I'm going to try one when I go back). I'm telling you now I plan on returning, possibly by myself to make sure I get a seat at the bar. I know it's far from authentic fare, but there's a good chance you'll find me at Taqueria Diana on September 16th, celebrating Mexican Independence Day as any patriotic American should — by diving mouth-first into that big ol' melting pot.

Snackshots Seattle, Part 2: Sightseeing by the Mouthful
I could have gone on even longer talking about my visit to Pike Place Market, but I'd rather leave some elements of mystery for you all (mostly my parents, who are just going to have to go there when they visit Dan). Fortunately, I still have plenty to share, since the rest of my weekend was taken up by alternating bouts of food inhalation and mild exercise.
I got into Seattle on Friday, and spent the afternoon checking out the EMP Museum while Dan finished up at work. If you're a music, pop culture, or sci fi fan, I highly recommend checking the museum out. Between the "Icons of Sci Fi" and the "Fantasy: Worlds of Myth and Magic" exhibits, I could barely contain the geek glee welling up inside me. Tons of props and costumes from movies and TV, plus guided audio tours featuring George R.R. Martin and Jane Espenson. Well worth the admission fee.
Dinner on Friday night — Tanglewood Supreme in Magnolia. Fine dining down a random alley?
Eventually Dan and I met up for dinner, and after a little bit of research, we settled on the highly rated Tanglewood Supreme. Despite sounding more like a Taco Bell order than a "fisherman to table" spot, Tanglewood Supreme is actually a "local seafood bistro" found in the classy, pricey neighborhood of Magnolia. It is tucked away down an alley, but once you enter the restaurant, Tanglewood immediately gives off a familiar upscale vibe of modern restaurants in NY or California. The same industrial aesthetic, with an open kitchen and simple wooden tables and chairs. The staff was very nice and accommodating, and perfectly happy to answer all of our questions.
Tanglewood Supreme is a little more familiar on the inside.
Dan was very eager to do the 7-course tasting menu (a ridiculously reasonable $45), but the jet-lag had left me not quite hungry enough to face down multiple courses, not to mention the fact that our waiter informed us it would take two hours to serve. I promised to join Dan for the full Tanglewood experience on a future visit.
The Spring Baby Lettuces salad, with a delectable dollop of Humboldt Fog in the top right corner.
We both started with Spring Baby Lettuces Salad (radish, Humboldt Fog, champagne grapes, pecan vinaigrette, carrot and apple), mostly because it included Humboldt Fog, one of my favorite goat's milk cheeses. Although it's produced in California, I've seen it on a number of menus in NY (in fact, Murray's sells it), and always enjoyed it by itself on cheese plates. As you can see in the photo, Humboldt Fog contains a line of of ash across the middle (like another fave of mine, Morbier), and has a strong, rich but tangy flavor, which worked really well against the bitterness of the lettuces and the acidity of the grapes. The salad was light and refreshing, and I was impressed with how all the components played off each other.
I was bound and determined to get my fill both of seafood and Asian food when in the Pacific Northwest, and managed to hit two birds with one stone at Tanglewood Supreme. As soon as I saw they had scallops, I was set (as I've mentioned before, scallops are one of my must-eat foods). Tanglewood Supreme's Asian-influenced take on the mollusk featured Alaskan Weathervane Scallops with baby bok choy, thai jasmine rice, red curry sauce, and "naan puffs." Dan went the more traditionally American route with the Rod & Reel King Salmon with rapini, mushrooms, bacon, celeriac purée, and june berry gastrique.
My entree of scallops, with a potent red curry sauce on the left. Both were great solo, but I found the combination unappetizing.
In what I would soon discover to be a common theme during my trip, the seafood in each of our dishes was of superbly fresh. The scallops were my favorite part of the whole dinner — caramelized on top, with a smooth buttery taste and just the right amount of chew. The baby bok choy was covered in a sesame glaze that paired well with the sweet scallops, but I found the red curry sauce, while appealing in flavor, too powerfully spicy for me. It ultimately overpowered the delicate subtlety of the scallops. However, the biggest disappointment were the naan puffs. Naan is one of my all-time favorite breads, to the point of dangerous overeating when I'm at an Indian buffet. But these puffs failed to be distinctly naan-like in any way — they were just like the pop-over version of donut holes, blandly bread-tasting without the smoky, charred yet chewy quality of well-executed naan.
Dan's salmon dish — very fresh fish with fabulous sides.
Dan really enjoyed his salmon, and even as a conscientious objector to the Cult of Salmon, I could tell how great the fish was. Flaky, but with real integrity to the meat. But as much as he liked the fish, he really dug the sides. The celeriac puree flawlessly masqueraded as fluffy mashed potatoes, and the layers of contrasting flavors from the berry gastrique, rapini, and fatty bacon and mushrooms lent a vaguely Thanksgiving-ish feel to the dish. Dan cleaned his plate, and from the sample bites I had, I could easily understand why. Overall, while I wasn't blown away by my dinner, I think I would be willing to try Tanglewood Supreme again, if only to see what the chef would come up with for the tasting menu.
Silly me, I thought that when Dan declined to order dessert at Tanglewood, it was because he was too full from dinner. In actuality, he had latched onto a comment I had made earlier about my list of Seattle must-eats (is anyone actually surprised that I did food research beforehand?). It turns out that Fainting Goat Gelato, one of the top-rated gelaterias in Seattle, is only a few blocks away from his house in Wallingford. So naturally we took a detour on the way home from Magnolia to say hello to a Fainting Goat.
Fainting Goat's whimsical logo on prominent display, not once, but twice.
Serious Eats' review of Fainting Goat was chock full of praise, and boy were they on the money. I ordered the chocolate hazelnut and the toasted almond, while Dan ordered the tiramisu. I thought that FG's equivalent of Nutella gelato had a well-defined hazelnut flavor, rich without tipping the scales into decadent. But I really went gaga for the toasted almond — it had a depth of flavor that totally surprised me — the kind of pure almond taste reaching beyond just a good extract and into the land of marzipan. While almonds have always been my nut of choice, between the almond croissant from Breads Bakery and this gelato, I'm discovering just how much I enjoy it as a leading ingredient in a food. Fainting Goat Gelato gets strong recommendation from me. They make all their gelato in-house, and have a rotating selection of flavors that changes daily. Dan said he had really enjoyed the fruit sorbets on previous visits, and thought that Fainting Goat's coffee gelato was the best he's ever had (a bold, if a bit sacrilege statement coming from a long-time Capogiro Gelato devotee).
Our orders of gelato at Fainting Goat, which lived up to their slogan: "so fainting good!"
After devouring the bounty of Pike Place Market on Saturday morning, Dan and I took a break from eating and strolled around a couple of Seattle parks. In the late afternoon, once our appetites had returned, we made our way to a couple more spots on Wallingford's main drag of N. 45th St (apologies if there is another main drag in Wallingford — I'm working off of limited knowledge focused mostly on edible trivia). Looking for a pre-dinner drink, Dan suggested we check out Bottleworks Seattle, a specialty beer store and bar.
Inside Bottleworks: a small sample of their enormous selection of fermented drinks.
Bottleworks inhabits a long and narrow space, each wall lined with fridge after fridge of alcoholic options, from US microbrews to beers from across the globe (I spotted a row of Ommegang bottles not too far down from some shelves full of honeywine and mead). Several beers are also available in kegs, a handful are featured on tap in the back of the store (for pints and growlers), and if you choose to stay and crack open your purchase, there are tables and chairs filling the middle of the space.
Washington State Hard Cider from Snowdrift — my attempt to drink locally as well.
Dan was thinking of trying out a new oatmeal stout, but I managed to convince him to try a local cider with me, since that was the reason he had suggested Bottleworks in the first place. The cider options were numerous and somewhat overwhelming, but luckily a staff member guided us towards the Washington State Hard Cider by Snowdrift Cider Co. It was smooth and easy to drink, dry yet delicate, with a slight fruity flavor that avoided the tooth-aching sweetness of some more common hard ciders. I got into hard ciders in college thanks to the cloyingly sugar-laden Woodchuck Granny Smith (employing the "this doesn't taste like alcohol, that's awesome!" strategy), but now I can barely stand the darker Woodchuck Amber or Angry Orchard stuff. Unfortunately, the day's diet of donuts and crumpets had left me slightly underserved in the tolerance department, and I quickly found myself solidly tipsy (in all fairness, it was 7.8% ABV). After making fun of me for a few minutes, Dan finally relented and led the way to dinner, at his new favorite Thai restaurant, May.
May is located just down the block from Bottleworks, in a two story building. Downstairs is the bar, which also has a few tables, but the second floor of the building houses the actual restaurant. The dining room is small, made up of maybe a dozen tables, and decorate in a cozy domestic style that Dan says is allegedly due to moving a home from Thailand and rebuilding it piece for piece in Seattle. (My one cider-induced regret is that I neglected to take pictures of May's decor). The restaurant had a very neighborly, welcoming feel to it, and the service was friendly and lightning quick.
Our appetizers at May — tender spare ribs on the bone, and filled-to-bursting fresh vegetable rolls.
We started with the fresh vegetable rolls and the pork spare ribs, which were delicious, but fade in my memory in the shadow of the pad thai. May has won "best pad thai in Seattle" multiple times, and so although I was tempted by an eggplant dish (you know how I feel about that nightshade), both Dan and the waitress recommended/insisted I opt for the pad thai. Just to round out my decidedly unkosher dinner, I chose shrimp pad thai, while Dan went with his usual, pad thai with chicken.
My unreal shrimp pad thai at May, with the pile of chile powder in the upper right corner.
The pad thai is brought out unassembled on a green banana leaf and is mixed at table-side to your preferred spice level. A small pile of chile powder sits in the corner of the plate to be blended in as per your direction. The only downside of this method is that klutzy eaters like me might end up accidentally scraping up some of the leftover powder, and then having a tremendously flattering coughing fit as a result. However, spice mishaps aside, this pad thai was hands down the best I've ever had. The noodles were chewy but pliant, the vegetables were crunchy and perfectly seasoned (not the least bit oily from the sauce), and the shrimp had a great snap to them. Honestly, the protein involved was pretty secondary to the rest of the dish, so I don't even think it matters whether you get chicken, shrimp, or opt out of meat altogether. If you think you're a Thai fan, May is well-worth your time.
Macrina Bakery in Queen Anne — perfect for a laid back brunch.
I'm pretty sure the only reason we didn't get dessert on Saturday night was because of our sugar-laden morning at Pike Place. But not to worry, Sunday was a brand new day to work on forming new cavities. Dan and I had grand plans of trying the famous croissants at Cafe Besalu, but the cafe was closed, the owners on vacation for two weeks. Rolling with the punches, we Yelped our way to the highly rated Macrina Bakery for brunch, and it ended up being a stupendous substitute. The location we went to was in Queen Anne, but there are also cafes in Belltown and SODO (whatever that stands for), according to Macrina's website.
Enough pastry for you?
Despite having no connection to 90s faux-Latin dance crazes, Macrina is still a spot worth visiting for a low-key brunch or lunch. The location we went to was made up of the counter and kitchen area, next to a small dining room filled with half-a-dozen tables (with some outdoor seating available as well). The cafe is decorated in pleasant, muted tones of red, yellow, and gray, leading your eye towards the seemingly endless array of breads and pastries. I was sorely tempted by the scones and muffins (especially the Morning Glory Muffin, which our server repeatedly recommended), but the allure of the brunch display plates was even more powerful. The brunch menu features a small selection of dishes, ranging from the basic two-eggs with toast and potatoes to the "is-this-even-breakfast" absurdity of Macrina's Brioche French Toast, slathered with cherry compote and amaretto creme fraiche (excuse me, what?).
The Market Special of the week at Macrina, with two eggs over easy.
Miraculously, I managed to show some tiny measure of restraint, opting for the Market Special, which that week featured two eggs how you like, with mushroom fritters, spinach and corn, herb-roasted potatoes, and a brioche roll — somehow encompassing nearly all of my favorite foods (just add in some chocolate and avocado somehow, and I would have hugged the chef). Although it seems like a lot of food, the portions were reasonable and filling. I was very impressed with the lightness of the mushroom fritters, that complemented the runny eggs and the freshness of the spinach and corn. What stopped me from finishing my plate was the additional Morning Bun Dan and I split. Continuing on his quest to eat all of the salmon in Seattle, Dan chose the Salmon Egg Bialy ("Onion Bialy topped with softly scrambled eggs, Gerard & Dominique cold-smoked salmon and chive crème fraîche. Served with herb-roasted potatoes.").
We also had a Morning Bun on top of our separate brunch dishes, because one roll is just simply inadequate.
The Morning Bun (a pre-Cronut era cousin of the croissant, baked in a muffin tin) was sweet from the swirl of vanilla sugar coating its insides, although I thought its flavors would have been further elevated if it had been served warm. Overall, I was glad I was sharing it, because flying solo that would have been a bit of a gut bomb, delicious as it was. Dan was very satisfied with his bialy and lox, and swore that he would bring his girlfriend Leah to Macrina for brunch on her next visit.
Inside D'Ambrosio Gelato in Ballard.
My last stop on my inaugural Seattle food tour was in Ballard, at D'Ambrosio Gelato. Some might find it unsettling that I would eat gelato twice in three days, but some people are just party poopers. D'Ambrosio was another spot mentioned in my Serious Eats-fueled field guide, so when Dan and I were strolling through the neighborhood during the Ballard Seafood Festival, we took a break from the heat with some authentic gelato, take two. Unintentionally emulating the flavors from my Fainting Goat experience, I ended up ordering the Stracciatella and the Bacio di Mama (aka "woman's kiss"), a mix of hazelnuts and almonds in vanilla gelato, inspired by a type of Italian cookie. Fainting Goat's toasted almond still triumphed in the gelateria Seattle battle, but the texture of D'Ambrosio's gelato is probably the closest I've found in America to what I ate in Rome. Thick and heavily churned, but somehow still airy enough to practically fly onto your spoon as you dipped into the cup. Like everything else I ate in Seattle, the high quality and freshness of the ingredients were evident from the first bite that touched my tongue.
My last bite in Seattle — Stracciatella and Bacio di Dama from D'Ambrosio.
I would say, if you can, try to visit both Fainting Goat and D'Ambrosio Gelato. FG's got a more wacky, free-spirited vibe to it, and features more unexpected flavors like Guinness or Banana Cream Pie, that aim to expand your gelato palate. But D'Ambrosio's more traditional menu is extremely well-executed, and better than many of the places I've tried in NY. It takes a deft hand to make the relatively commonplace Stracciatella a flavor you'll want to order again and again.
All in all, no one can argue that I failed to eat well in Seattle. However, for all of the donuts and chocolate and cinnamon buns, the element of the city's food scene that left the strongest impression were those largely untouched in the kitchen — the fruits and vegetables. Much like my time in Israel, I found myself marveling at the sheer juiciness of a peach, or the crunch of the bean sprouts in my pad thai. New York may have Seattle beat on Michelin-starred haute cuisine, but once you step into the ring of quality of everyday, street-level produce, Seattle's got a mean right hook. For an Oreo-obsessee, it's a little surreal that I'm actually counting down the days until I can eat some more fresh Rainier cherries. Not that I'd turn down some mini donuts on the side. Hope to see you again soon, Seattle (oh, and Dan, too, I guess).

The greatest investigation takes the by the presence of business and done a fraud from the three GlaxoSmithKline officers. These three executives did corruption in china and they are facing the investigated issues.
Britain's basic Fraud managerial focus has been developed for the criminal investigation about GlaxoSmithKline's frightful deals works on, heaping to the advanced government on the criminals, which is now being researched through Chinese powers. And this the best deal for criminal examination to protect the corruption through investigation.
One of the greatest organizations in the Britain's, the most experienced Andrew witty is running this organization; he said it is very effectively used for all the criminals on Tuesday. The organization SFO was opened for basic prison examination and group of criminals for practices".
"GSK is committed to living up to expectations its business to the idealistic moral thoughts and can keep on cooperating fully with the SFO," it presented. A representative was ineffective to give extra information. It's appreciated by the SFO is observing receivable examples all through a ton of world previews including China.
The protector expressed rest of July that GSK had conveyed lawful experts from the SFO on its exercises in China.
In the last two weeks, China has been catching the three GSK officers, along with Mark Reilly, who is the previous boss of china industry, for the corruption. Because of corruption china charged these people. The person, Reilly is one of the British men, based on evidences Reilly is in the jail, this by the judgment. Polices realizes the Reilly with other two executives, namely, Zhang Guowei and Zhao Hongyan did the corruption from medical executives.
Observing the assertions have surfaced in various countries. One and only GSK has researched claims that fixes have been paying up to documents in Poland, Iraq, Jordan and Lebanon. Though believing the cases important, the organization has demanded these are disconnected models and there is nothing about the systemic issues.
Short of what two years previously, GSK was fined essentially £2bn in the USA after it conceded remunerating therapeutic specialists and authorized the medicine of unsatisfactory antidepressants to young people. Witty guaranteed an organization substantial upgrade then to prevent a rehash of the "unsuitable blunders".
Payoff of specialists is said to be overflowing in China, with unpredictable deals targets and low doctor pay rates, making a backside floor for corruption of people.
Extreme week local against degradation powers went by, the business locales of Swiss drug maker Roche in the Japanese city of Hangzhou, another alternative is that Chinese powers are venturing up their crackdown on remuneration in the medical services segment. This news was gone very popular Herald newspaper, which is in the 21st century.
A same mode of authority reminder discussed through the daily paper record named Britain's AstraZeneca, America's Eli Lilly and Denmark's Novo Nordisk as organizations associated with making kickbacks.
An AstraZeneca representative, spokeswoman, stated that: "To our data, the Hangzhou prosperity Bureau has now not tried this verbal trade. Furthermore, we have now not got any genuine dispatch on this subject instantly, we are not receiving anything from the Bureau, and this is about information".
