Non-seafood eaters need not read further! Although they can easily make a seafood lover out of most anyone… the seafood savvy palate will be thrilled with Mary Mahoney’s.
Located on the Biloxi strip, Mary Mahoney’s Old French House is a favorite of locals and a tourist must! The history of the building itself warrants a visit. The Old French House was built in 1773 during the French occupation of the Mississippi Gulf Coast. Listed on the National Register of Historic Homes, The Old French House is one the oldest homes in the United States. The home was purchased and opened as a restaurant in 1964 by the Mahoney Family; Bob and Mary Mahoney, and Mary’s brother Andrew Cvintanovich. Soon the restaurant was referred to as Mary Mahoney’s Old French House and to locals simply, Mahoney’s. The Old French House has many uniquely French features; a wine cellar, rare to homes on the coast, a distinctly New Orleans style brick courtyard shaded by a 2000 year old oak locals call "The Patriarch”, and wonderful dining rooms with tall ceilings that captures what it must have felt like to live and enjoy meals in such a magnificent home.
Taking advantage of the availability of fresh seafood from locals, Mahoney’s menu is vast and varied enough to offer something for every day of the week. However, if time is not on your side, stick with the specialty menu. Start with the “can’t go wrong” Presidential Platter filled with fried crab claws and petite soft shell crabs; aptly named the Presidential Platter after being served to President Ronald Reagan at the White House in 1984. Follow up your crab claws and soft shell crabs with the world-famous seafood gumbo. With a dark rich roux, this gumbo is meant to be shared. Not too spicy but has a bit of...

Fine-dining, exceptional service and a robust history is a tall order for a restaurant. Many restaurants have tried to meet these criteria but few can truly say they have achieved it; Mary Mahoney’s fills the order. Do not compare Mary Mahoney’s to the seafood restaurant chains or the typical tourist trap, Mahoney’s is a true experience in local cuisine.
In 2005, Hurricane Katrina devastated the restaurant with eight feet of water. Mary Mahoney's reopened on Nov. 3, 2005, only 65 days after the storm hit the Gulf shores. Many say “The Patriarch” protected the restaurant. After all, the grand oak has stood tall for 2,000 years weathering many storms. Both, “The Patriarch” and Mahoney’s, have an abundance of stories. If you are visiting the Mississippi Gulf Coast and you love seafood, Mary Mahoney’s is a must! If you’re a local, see you at Mahoney’s!

When Thomas Jefferson wrote the second paragraph of the Declaration of Independence, it became one of his greatest legacies. In the first line he wrote, "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal" (U.S. Constitution, paragraph 2). Jefferson wrote these words to give inspiration to future generations in the hopes that they would be able to change what he either would or could not. The word “men” in the Declaration in the early 1700 and 1800’s meant exactly that, but even then it only was true for some men, not all. Women, children, and other segments of the population such as slaves and Native Americans were clearly not included. Jefferson himself was a slave owner and held the belief that women were inferior to men. Though women played no role in the political environment, they were crucial to the development and economic success of the times. The strength, courage and work ethic of pioneer women like Martha Ballard in “A Midwife’s Tale” (Thatcher, 1990) created the very fabric of the community and wove it together so the community could thrive.
Mary Zimmerman framed that women have not had ultimate control over their own bodies and health as a fundamental assumption underlying women’s health movement. Men control and dominate a huge portion of the of decision making roles in the healthcare field, such as health related research, health policy etc. Whereas women are more seen in social positions. According to the article “The Women’s Health Movement” by Mary K. Zimmerman, the concept of medicalization is the “increasing tendency to apply medical definitions and control to phenomena not previously thought of as medical problems (Zola, 1972; Conrad and Schneider, 1980). In the 1950’s a drug called Thalidomide was created by a German company, claiming that it was safe for pregnant women. Although many women were still using this drug during this time, in 1961, reports began to surface that this drug was causing several birth defects and other health problems. The author presented the Thalidomide case as an example of medicalization by showing us the potential consequences of a style medical
With Mary Daly we discover that in the Christian faith and many other religions, we portray God as male. This shared belief according to Daly is stated to be one of the leading causes of male dominance; also called “feminism, where women are seen as the second sex”. Here we will be breaking down Daly’s arguments and try to understand her ways of possibly fixing this problem. In Daly’s book we notice three main aspects that serve as the root of the majority of her claims. The first one is god as a verb rather than a noun, this concept address how by saying god is only a noun we are limiting the power of him. The second point is god is male and male is god, this part of her book talks about how males have been cast as the superior gender thanks
Mystery is a literary genre that hooks the reader in with thrill and suspense. Mary Reilly is a 1990 parallel novel by American writer Valerie Martin inspired by Robert Louis Stevenson 's classic novel The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. Faithfully weaving in details from Robert Louis Stevenson 's classic, Martin introduces an original and captivating character: Mary Reilly, a survivor who is scarred but still strong, familiar with evil but brimming with devotion and love. The novel Mary Reilly both compliments and complements Stevenson’s novel.
Mary MacKillop was born into a strong knit Scottish family and was the eldest of eight children. Mary was a well educated child who was taught by her father who spent some time studying for priesthood in Rome, but due to ill health he had return to his homeland Scotland until migrating to Australia.
Throughout her tale of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, Martin maintains some emotional aspects of the original Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, while discarding and replacing others. Although the subtleties of the emotions in Stevenson's novel are deeper than those of Martin's, they may still be found spotting the plot in all of the different characters. Stevenson's primary characters, Mr. Hyde, Dr. Jekyll, and Mr. Utterson, display the strongest emotions, and can be most easily documented and interpreted. Martin, on the other hand, swaps out Mr. Utterson as the primary character and replaces him with Mary Reilly, a housemaid living with Dr. Jekyll. Unlike Stevenson, Martin provides a very grand emotional display. Mary is plagued by several distinct emotions, and the thoughts and feelings of Dr. Jekyll are brought to light far more vividly than in Stevenson's text. By utilizing a deep connection to emotion in her novel, Mary Reilly, Valerie Martin nearly transforms the genre of the original Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde into a psychological thriller.

Lobster has become a great delicacy for all occasions. Resembling most other people, I absolutely love lobster! While it is available to me all year round, it is served in so many ways you can’t even imagine. From the many chain restaurants to the high and prestigious diners, it is the flawless food. Not only is lobster appealing and scrumptious, it is also one of the best sources for a low-calorie protein. Broiling a fine lobster until it sprays, fizzles and crusts up in all the right places make it just so delightful that it melts you right in your seat. Grilling a beautiful salmon and noticing the skin becoming so crisp on the grill, while the core slowly turns tender underneath is beautiful, too. Furthermore, many of the troubles in the world can practically be conserved through just a couple flavor-stuffed shrimps, saturated with warm butter.
