Back to Work + Don't Give Up the Fight
Bob Herbert and Paul Krugman know where it's at. Sez Krugman:
Democrats are now, understandably, engaged in self-examination. But while it's O.K. to think things over, those who abhor the direction Mr. Bush is taking the country must maintain their intensity; they must not succumb to defeatism.
Because if we don't it's goodbye, New Deal. Goodbye, separation of church and state. Goodbye, Roe v. Wade. And that's just the beginning.
Krugman also cautions the left not to abandon their support for gay rights and abortion rights in a misguided attempt to appeal to the religious right:
So what should the Democrats do?
One faction of the party is already calling for the Democrats to blur the differences between themselves and the Republicans. Or at least that's what I think Al From of the Democratic Leadership Council means when he says, "We've got to close the cultural gap." But that's a losing proposition.
Yes, Democrats need to make it clear that they support personal virtue, that they value fidelity, responsibility, honesty and faith. This shouldn't be a hard case to make: Democrats are as likely as Republicans to be faithful spouses and good parents, and Republicans are as likely as Democrats to be adulterers, gamblers or drug abusers. Massachusetts has the lowest divorce rate in the country; blue states, on average, have lower rates of out-of-wedlock births than red states.
But Democrats are not going to get the support of people whose votes are motivated, above all, by their opposition to abortion and gay rights (and, in the background, opposition to minority rights). All they will do if they try to cater to intolerance is alienate their own base.
Does this mean that the Democrats are condemned to permanent minority status? No. The religious right - not to be confused with religious Americans in general - isn't a majority, or even a dominant minority. It's just one bloc of voters, whom the Republican Party has learned to mobilize with wedge issues like this year's polarizing debate over gay marriage. Rather than catering to voters who will never support them, the Democrats - who are doing pretty well at getting the votes of moderates and independents - need to become equally effective at mobilizing their own base.
Yeah, what he said. As for me, I already had more cartoon material than I knew what to do with... sigh.

first impression: This hip spot is a light-flooded glass space with a distinct L.A. vibe. The food, heavily sea-inspired, is inventive with Baja and island flavors dominating the early fall menu, Asian touches the winter one. The bar program mirrors those influences and is rum-centric. The place is owned by the duo behind nearby Retreat Gastropub on Sarah Street. They recruited two San Diego chefs, celeb-chef Richard Blais to "lead the culinary vision" and native St. Louisan Jason Gethin as exec chef. By our December visit, former sous chef Kate Wagoner had moved into the top spot.
» sea biscuits: $8; These come with butter blended with uni, or sea urchin roe. While I didn't really detect that, the flaky, rich cheddar biscuits were stellar in every way.
» ahi tuna tostada: $14; A standout dish of fresh, bright ahi cubes sitting on a thin, crisp tostado spread with avocado 'crema' and sweet soy sauce. Topping it was shredded cabbage tossed with seaweed, making every bite a deliciously crispy, creamy blend.
» crispy brussels sprouts: $9; Tasty, if a little oily. The deep-fried little cabbages were flavored with Thai chili and garlic and tossed with crushed peanuts and pork belly.
» thai cioppino plater: $40; This transforms the classic Italian seafood stew into a spicy treat with cilantro, jalapeno, lime and tomato broth dominating (the coconut milk was barely detectable). Meant for two to four diners, it was filled with large chunks of premium branzino and tuna, as well as bits of calamari and tiny sweet clams. It was delicious (if a little spicy) and filling—served with a mound of rice in the middle of a huge bowl.
» wagyu skirt steak: $28; Plenty of flavor, but also too much fat. While those two are related, the meat could have been better trimmed with less oil in the marinade/sauce. On the plus side, it was tender and well-paired with a sweet soy Korean barbecue sauce. The dish came with Beef Fat French Fries—super tasty, crispy and sinful (another reason to moderate the fat in the steak).
» fish sandwich: $18; Delicious with its puffy batter coating (on the oily side) and yummy pile-ons like avocado tartar sauce and pickled daikon. It comes on a gigantic Hawaiian bun and with those same Beef Fat Fries.
» grandma's coconut cake: $6; This avoids the pitfalls of so many over-the-top desserts. Its delicate flavor relied on coconut flakes, sour cream in the frosting and a dense white cake that brought joy with every bite.
The specialty drinks here are creatively concocted with island fruit juices flavored by strong ingredients like ginger, rhubarb, allspice, nori, corn, nutmeg and soy sauce. Our Helping Hands ($12) was well-balanced. Tequila dominated the drink, but the snap pea, lime juice and nori enhanced it in subtle ways.
This is the 'it' place—lively and bustling with lines out the door (no reservations are taken, but you can use the NoWait app). I especially like the 'island vibe,' which feels fresh. As for the menu, most of what we tasted was exciting, blending ingredients like shoyu, nori, uni and passionfruit to offer diners something new—both with food and beverages. In the future, I plan to avoid the fried foods and focus on the menu's more exciting flavor pairings.

Bones found in Magnificent Amphipolis Tomb belong to Five People, Ministry Announced
In 2015, the Greek Ministry of Culture announced the long-awaited results of the analysis on the bones found inside the 4th century BC tomb uncovered in Amphipolis in northern Greece. The news was quite unexpected – the bones belonged to not one, but five individuals, pointing to the likelihood that it is a family tomb. However, their has been a setback in their analysis since then. What's next for the Amphipolis tomb and the remains that were found within?
The tomb is located within Kasta Hill in what was once the ancient city of Amphipolis, conquered by Philip II of Macedon, father of Alexander the Great, in 357 BC. Experts have known about the existence of the burial mound in Amphipolis, located about 100 km (62.14 miles) northeast of Thessaloniki, since the 1960s, but work only began in earnest there in 2012, when archaeologists discovered that Kasta Hill had been surrounded by a nearly 500-meter (1640.42 ft.) wall made from marble. It was only in 2015 that they discovered the incredible chambers decorated with marble sphinxes and caryatids, an intricate mosaic floor, and a limestone sarcophagus containing hundreds of bone fragments.
Amphipolis Tomb by Greektoys.org (update) on Sketchfab.
According to the Ministry's Press Release , archaeologists recovered a total of 550 bone fragments, both crushed and intact, including a skull in good condition. After a meticulous process of piecing the fragments together, scientists identified 157 complete bones.
Following the macroscopic study of bone material, which was undertaken by a multidisciplinary team from the Universities of Aristotle and Democritus, researchers were able to determine that the minimum number of individuals is five – a woman aged around 60 years, two men aged 35-45 years, a newborn infant, and the cremated remains of another individual of unknown age and gender. In addition, they found a number of animal bones, most likely belonging to a horse.
Person 1: Female, approximately 60 years
Scientists were able to identify person 1 as female based on the pelvic bones, the bones of the skull, the mandible, and the morphological features of the bones. Age was determined based on the loss of posterior teeth, degenerative lesions, particularly in the spine, and the presence of metabolic diseases such as osteoporosis and frontal hyperostosis. Her height is estimated at 157 cm (5.15 ft.)
Most of the bones found can be attributed to the female, and they were located approximately 1 meter (3.28 ft.) above the floor of the cist.

Persons 2 and 3: Two men, 35 to 45 years
Two of the individuals identified are known to have been men, one around 35 years of age, and the other closer to 45 years of age. The younger of the two men, whose height is estimated at 168 cm (5.51 ft.), bears traces of cut marks on the left upper thoracic spine, two sides and cervical vertebra. His injuries are consistent with violent injury caused by a sharp instrument, such as a knife, which apparently caused his death (no healing indications could be distinguished.)
The slightly older man, whose bones were found higher than the first man, measures around 162 cm (5.31 ft.) in height and has evidence of a fully healed fracture in his right radius, close to the right wrist. Both men show degenerative osteoarthritis and spondylitis.
Cut marks were found in multiple places in the bones of person 2 in the Amphipolis tomb. Credit: Ministry of Culture
Person 4: Newborn infant
The fourth individual identified was a newborn infant, whose sex could not be determined. The determination of age was made based on the length and width of the left humerus and left mandible.

Person 5: Cremated individual of unknown age and sex
The fifth person is represented by only a few burnt fragments. While age and sex cannot be determined, the bones are believed to belong to an adult individual.

The scientific team planned to continue to carry out in-depth studies of the bones, including DNA analysis, to obtain more detailed information about the individuals including their diet, their affinity and place of origin, whether they grew up in Amphipolis or had moved from elsewhere, when they were buried/cremated, and whether the individuals are related to each other. The hope was that the results would enable the researchers to piece together the social and historical context and finally determine the identity of the individuals buried inside this incredibly important funerary monument.
However, an update on the research project shows that three and a half years after the fascinating discovery in 2015, the work has come to a standstill. A lack of funding for the project has raised some eyebrows on the current government's views on the archaeological site. Currently the human remains are being stored in the Amphipolis Museum. They've been there ever since the initial macroscopic analysis was completed.
Despite the obstacle in discovering more about the people who were buried inside, there is movement at the Amphipolis tomb. In fact, heavy restoration work has been underway to have the site ready to open to the public in 2020 .

I'm new to following this article and I have a question: was it common for there to be no identification on or around the tomb itself? Are all tombs mystery tombs from this time period or was identification put on paper or fabric that disintegrated over time thereby obscuring the identity?
dtdtdgg wrote on 19 January, 2015 - 23:36
At least 5!
aruvqan myers wrote on 19 January, 2015 - 13:01
Sounds like a family group. Mother, 2 sons, grandchild and anonymous 5th cremated, maybe the mother of the infant? Though the cremated fragments could belong to the main female's husband, died away and cremated for traveling the body remains back to the family crypt.
I await more information eagerly! This is a fantastic find.

Last week I set up an appointment with Kevin Lee to learn more about the Mercedes line and lease program. My lease in my Lexus IS 300 was coming to an end and after having 3 Lexus leases in a row I was considering getting into something completely different. He was GREAT! Before anything he spent time with me to get to know my likes, dislikes , what's important to me in a car etc.... he answered all my questions and even knowing I wasn't going to buy as yet spent time with me on a test drive. When coming back inside I spied a beautiful red 2019 CLA 250 with AMG accents on the showroom floor! I fell in love with it!! I expressed "that's the one!!" :) Kevin is no pressure!! He knew I was there to educate not purchase and sent me off on my merry way! Well...over the rest of the week and weekend I couldn't stop thinking about that beautiful red car and was bummed I still had time in current lease. I reached out to Kevin to see if they expected another one just like it in the coming weeks as I know that one probably wouldn't be there when I was ready. He responded quickly to my email... "Let's see what I can do to get you the one on the showroom floor"....He did it!!! I'm now driving a beautiful red 2019 CLA 250. Easiest car purchase EVER!!

Social Recruiting: Throwing Open the Little Black Book?
Amidst the throng of discussion about the future of recruitment is a view that the internet is enabling clients to do it for themselves. Let's not hide from this. It is, and will continue to do so. There is undoubtedly a squeeze afoot.
This direct hiring and social recruitment 'gospel' might seem like a strange sermon from a retained recruiter. So where is this going? At the heart of this movement is LinkedIn, and they know it! As the worlds 377302nd LinkedIn member I was an early adopter and a major fan of its power. But with a portfolio of offerings for hiring managers of every denomination, you might easily be seduced into the view that the recruitment industry is fast facing its very own ice age.
I am firm in the belief that in a perfect world, with perfect visibility of labour, clients don't need recruiters. LinkedIn recruiter packs and other social channels move us ever closer to this reality. 'Social Recruiting' offers direct access to every skill set at every level, through structured campaigns and serendipitous encounters. The cost benefits to the employer are obvious. So there it is; the head hunters little black book laid open for all to read?
Those at the commodity edges of the recruitment market should rightly look hard at themselves. The internet removes barriers between direct access for candidate and hiring managers alike, and limits the days of simple CV brokering. This has always been a nimble segment of the market, so adaption should be fine. Retained providers do need to be mindful, but not fearful, of this.
Hard as it may be to believe in this digital age, there remains a substantive segment of senior managers and leaders who wish to remain off the social media radar. One might argue that here and now in 2013, the aware and alert ought to have a strong appropriate professional social media profile. Perhaps we ought to be suspicious of those who do not? But clearly having a social media profile does not in its own right confer greatness, nor does social media offer the recruiting panacea.
Irrespective of how they are sourced, covering the hard yards in identifying talent is only the beginning of successful hiring. I believe that real value comes more from knowing and understanding talent; knowing what will excite, motivate, challenge and capture the attention of key candidates. Specialist recruiters speak the language of their sector, advise clients on the market, and advise them on their proposition relative to the rest of the market. RPO's and in-house teams know their client intimately, but cannot fully offer the breadth of coverage of a collective of specialists. Scale and economies simply don't allow them to develop deep specialisms reflecting the external market. Internal resources of every design need to serve the 80 not the 20.
'Social Recruiting' has shifted the ratio a little, opening the doors a little wider on identifying where talent might lie. The digital age is enhancing communications immeasurably. Social recruiting is enabling a deeply constructive direct dialogue between company, consumer, employer and employee.
At the thin end of the wedge Social Recruiting allows for structured serendipity; giving the opportunity for chance and coincidence to bring the right person to the right role at the right time, directly. Advanced adopters utilise social recruitment as a channel to create a market wide awareness of their employee proposition, and build talent pipelines – pools of latent resource ready to engage as and when a suitable opportunity arises. In a more mature state this allows companies to focus recruit upon talent alone, not simple job slots.
Using Social Recruitment well gives a tremendous platform to promote and exploit ever stronger internal and external communications. Those who use it poorly risk simply creating a broadcast platform for bad news; a hot line for the waifs and strays of the employment market. So, knowing where to find talent really is just an entry ticket to the show.
The critical differential is in really knowing and understanding the needs of key talent groups. With investment from HR and sponsorship by business stakeholders Social Recruiting can certainly make good ground for the corporate recruiter. Otherwise it's really time to look at the owner of the Little Black Book and how they fill it! Specialists recruiters embrace all routes to finding and knowing the very best candidates. For us it's all about managing our knowledge pool and acknowledging that in this market the 'Little Black Book' is a simple and effective starting point, but rarely the complete answer. So, as the saying goes a little knowledge is a dangerous thing, but a lot of knowledge and an appetite for more defines a specialist. We firmly believe it's the age of the specialist.
As a retained Search & Selection business Berwick Partners focus upon holding deep and narrow specialist skills. We align these to the corporate functions (IT, Finance, HR, Procurement) and market sectors (Retail, Consumer, Energy & Utilities, Manufacturing, Infrastructure, Government, Not for Profit) of our clients. This enables us to place our cross hairs directly upon the best mix of talent for each assignment. We engage candidates utilising deep and narrow knowledge of the drivers, aspirations, and career needs of specialist within each market sector and function– all with a sharp focus upon the objectives of our clients.

Beltway Blog — Crossroads drops $200k on anti-Obama ads in Colorado
By Allison Sherry
WASHINGTON — It's Wednesday, the third day of the work week and the third day a new ad buy for the presidential race has gone up in Colorado — a critical swing state.
Crossroads GPS launched commercials today in ten swing states, including Colorado, that talk about "Obama's Promise," detailing the "poor results on fixing the troubled economy, cutting the debt, keeping taxes low, and other key issues."
They spent $208,000 in Colorado on the ad, which will run through May 31.
On Monday, Obama for America launched a two minute ad hitting Romney for his work at Bain Capital. Then the next day, pro-Obama super PAC, Priorities USA launched an ad on Bain again.
Coffman says Obama "not an American"
Suspicions of widespread cheating at two Denver elementaries spur investigation
Crossroads needs to run ads about Barry Soetoro's fraudulent birth certificate, his stolen Connecticut Social Security Number, and how he was admitted to college in the U.S. as a foreign exchange student.

A Birther AND a Ron Paul Supporter … wow, what does it feel like to be on the fringe of a fringe?
Comment by Jackson3793 — May 17, 2012 @ 4:59 am
Keep piling that Hollywood money into Colorado guys. It's a good way to spread the wealth. And, when you run out of money you will then see why Romney needs to be President.

It depends on how long she expected me to wait. If she gave me a definite time period, say, if she wanted to wait till she finished school or something, I could wait. If it was open ended, then.....naaaaah. That goes same for her.
Yea i agree. If she gives a time period like school or somethin then its cool. But if her decision is poorly justified then It would be best for me to say bye (even tho I most likely wouldnt want to) cause otherwise i would be wastin time it seems.
I have some more questions... If a guy tells a female that she's "too good of a good girl", what does that mean? And is it a good or bad thing? Let's say you were talking to a female (as friends but the potential to be more than that is there) that has been hurt in every one of her past relationships (the last time was about a year ago) and once had a "wall" up but now she's willing to give a relationship another try. Would you try to get in a relationship (like a bf/gf kinda thing) with her? If so, how would you approach the relationship? Would it be any different than if you were trying to get with a female who hasn't been really hurt? If you wouldn't pursue a relationship, why wouldn't you? Some of my male friends sometimes say about a female "That's a girl I would date" and then other times, "She's the wifey type but I wouldn't date her". Is there really a difference between someone you would date and someone you would "wife"? I know it prolly is a silly question... but when I tried to ask my guy friends, they just laughed.... so I'm turning to ya'll fellas.
Ok, I have a question... Why is it that when a guy starts having feelings for a girl, that they seem to push the female away? Ok, and another question... If a guy is "feeling" you, ya'll flirting and everything, but on occassion, drops in "well my homegirl said..." or "my homegirl did...", what could that possibly mean? Is he REALLY into you and the "my homegirl" comments don't mean much OR is he seeing you as a "homegirl" and not "the girl"?
1) maybe you're the one that's having feelings for him, and he's pushing you away... 2) he's not that into you...you're just his friend n he's possibly already taken..now yall know how it feels.
i'd wait for you if i thought yuo were worth it... yes...but i'd admt it'd make me want you more if you were like "i'm not gonna wait on him..."
hmmm.... interesting. thankx for the answer..
^^^...You gonna have to explain more on that Angie.


We are going to reschedule this weekend at Lake Erie Speedway due to the forecast, there will be rain in the area all weekend and the high temperature in the 50's makes the track tougher to drive with that dampness in the air. We realize that Sunday's forecast looks like we may potentially get the event in, however we schedule our trip to WNY and Erie, PA the same weekend. There's a high likelihood that we are going to get rained out on Saturday at Holland Speedway in Holland, NY and frankly it is financially impossible to make this trip work with that rain out on Saturday and potential rainout Sunday.
We regret this change and appreciate you working with us to insure a great event in June of this year.

An Education in Place Kat Oakley '19 has spent a lot of time contemplating the idea of "place" - both in Lexington and across the world.
I expected to learn a great many things in college — perhaps even earth-shattering things — but I could not have anticipated how much many of the seemingly disparate things I experienced would change my relationship with the idea of a place. In true college fashion, this transformation started in a class.
Despite having traveled a fair bit with my family, I had never thought critically about place until I took Intro to Environmental Studies with Professor Leah Green, which turned out to be the most influential class I've ever had the fortune of taking. The readings and discussions from that class have permanently affected my life, but none so much as those of Wendell Berry, enriched by Professor Green's passion for sharing them. Berry, an agrarian and localist, proposes an idea that I hadn't considered and that stands in contrast to our consumerist culture: that value and satisfaction comes from investment and — less eloquently put — that we are not truly in a place until we are invested in it.
From that point forward, I started viewing the world in terms of place instead of simply space. It was a paradigm shift that seems obvious but, in reality, was monumental. I had gone my entire life just moving through space, uncritical of those movements and those places. When I started seeing places, each unique and valuable and loved, the world became immensely richer and the possibility of satisfaction and beauty omnipresent.
Thanks to Wendell Berry and Professor Green, places were already on my mind. I viewed places as having more depth and had started to put much more value on investment in places in my own life. But I spent nine months quite literally in foreign territory; I had neither the time nor knowledge to invest in a place or truly be part of it. And so, while travel increased my appreciation of other places, it also enforced in me the value of having a place you love and investing in it, a perspective that will continue to direct my life.
Washington and Lee has forced me to confront place in all its complexity. I've learned to live in and invest in and value a place in which — as an openly queer person — it is not necessarily easy for me to exist. In fact, adapting to W&L, a place so socially and politically distinct from my high school, has been one of my biggest challenges. But I also view it as one of W&L's biggest gifts to me. I've learned that life is more beautiful when you're invested in your place, and that the comfortable place isn't usually the place you have the most to offer. It is my biggest hope that I have occupied Lexington in such a way that it has benefited from my being here; I also hope that, as I find more places that I love, I will apply the lessons that I've learned here and put some of myself in those places, just as they do the same for me.
For anthropology, people are the only thing that confuse me enough I could spend my life trying to understand them and not be bored. And then I picked up Spanish because I'm so naturally bad at it that majoring is the only way I was ever going to learn it (funcionó).
Kassie Scott '18 possesses a level of organization and commitment that is constantly inspiring. However, the real reason she comes to mind with this question is that I've never met somebody who is so kind or cares as much about fellow humans as she does.
Napa Thai without a doubt, and I almost always get some sort of vegetable curry.
"Ishmael" by Daniel Quinn. And if you like that, then read Quinn's "Beyond Civilization," where he fills in the pragmatic gaps.
First on the agenda is to get a cat. The rest is details.
It seemed like a place that would push me, and where my being there could matter.

We have friends that live part time in Seattle and part time in Singapore. Last year Yu Sian traveled with me to Laos and mentioned the World Gourmet Conference that takes place the first of May each year. When there is an invitation I hate to miss the opportunity so I took Yu Sian up on her offer. I arrived for an amazing week of eating and exploring.
We did more in one week than I have space to write but here are the highlights.
The restaurant is in the Metro Mall, in the rear of the Paragon Mall, as are most restaurants. Today we had dim sum for lunch however, we returned the last evening for the best peking duck served 3 ways. Do not miss this treat, my host Boon Woo believes this is the best Peking Duck in the world.
That first evening we went to dinner at Long Beach King Seafood– this is a very casual place with huge tanks of fresh crabs and fish. We had the special Chili Crabs, they serve a local mud crab with one larger claw. They also had live Alaska King crab, $700.00 sing dollars for one crab course.
We shared the local crabs and they were great.
Early the next morning we had a walk through the gardens and headed to Bacchus in Paragon Square to buy some Champagne for later. A good asian restaurant for an early lunch was located in the basement of this mall, Din Tai Fung makes perfect dumplings. We also now have the same dumpling restaurant in Bellevue, Washington.
That evening we stayed in and were joined by several of their friends for a wonderful traditional dinner around their table. durian was the surprise for desert. If you can get by the smell and that ugly skin the soft fruit inside is very nice, I believe a learned taste.
Boon Ho, Yu Sian's husband, took us for lunch on Sunday at the new "Sky on 57" restaurant at Marina Bay Sands hotel and casino. skyon57@marinabaysands.com.
This is a very upscale restaurnat serving local cusine. I ordered the local version of chicken rice, not like what you are served in street food. Next to the restaurant is the new pool that has an infinity edge 57 stories above the city. Worth a visit.
legs cooked with ginger garlic sauce to start. The sauce was rich with flavor and very tasty. Next arrived a plate of Zhichar, stir fry beef with rice noodles with black beans. Followed by a plate of small clams in a chile sauce, way to much chili.
Next morning we headed out to the famous Orchard Road to shop. It is hot and humid there so all of the shopping happens in very high end office type buildings or hotels, each different mall taking the first 5 or 6 floors of the building. Connecting the building is a maze of underground passage ways. Every major retailer from Gucci to Todd shoes is represented and each mall has a large selection of great restaurants, gourmet grocers and food stalls.
While my hosts were working I made good use of my time to visit the local museums, wander the shopping areas and get back to the house for the next food adventure. One of my favorite stops was the Peranakan museum. This is a small museum but so full of history I had a hard time leaving, a must. The National Museum of Singapore was a good place to spend time out of the heat of the city. Then I was off to my last stop Asian Civilsation Museum, across from the Fullerton Hotel, the original post office now converted into a grand hotel on the Singapore river.
The first wine dinner we attended was held in a new restaurant called 'Gaia" chef Luisa Valazza from a 3 star restaurnat in Alba, Al Sorriso , prepared a 5 course meal paired with Pio's wines also from Alba. After all, the reason I came to Singapore was to attend the dinners and cooking classes offered by the Gourmet group.
Next morning after our walk we headed to Little India for vegetarian Dosa at a small place called Komala Vilas, they have 3 locations but we went to #76 Serangoon Road across from the Indian market. Our perfect dosa's were around $3.00. Great way to start the morning.
After a quick change we were off to cooking class. The class was taught by a Japanese chef and he showed a couple of simple chicken dishes, not sure I would recreate at home but some interesting technique. I do not believe the classes offered were really that great however, the experience was worth the time.
We had a quiet dinner at home with the best bowl of "Laksa", I will ever eat. Laska is a bowl filled with noodles, fresh coconut juice squeezed from the meat of the coconut and beautiful shrimp. I perfect way to end any day. If you are in the region be sure to have Laksa, I am sure it will not be as good as what I was served but a must.
The next morning we went to China town and shared the traditional morning fare with hundreds of others in one of the food halls that are found all over the city. Most of the people live in apartments and have little kitchens so eat many of there meals in the huge food halls located in their neighborhoods. I chose to have a plate of noodles with fresh BBQ pork and a bowl of broth on the side, about $3.50. I had to try the hot ginger tea, a lot of ginger but I loved every sip and I am sure all my health issues were taken care of with that one cup of tea.
I made a stop at the Chinatown Heritage Center and spent time just walking through the rooms and understanding what the immigrants 100 years ago went through to find a new better life.
Boon Ho took us to a new upscale restaurant called "Otto" located at 28 Maxwell Road in The Red Dot Traffic Building, the old traffic police station and jail. Otto is restaurant that draws a large business crowd.
Last week we flew to New York for a quick 5 days of eating and exploring. We stayed at the Plaza Hotel, which has been all updated, our junior suite was complete with a Round bed. We have never slept in a round bed, interesting.
Our first night we had a late dinner at Dovetail, 103 West 77th St. Interesting American food with a twist. The soft shell crab Carl, my husband had, was perfectly crisp with a simple fresh peas puree under with a hint of lemon zest. The courses were the right size to enjoy without being to full. The wine list had a broad range of vintages and wineries represented. I recommend Dovetail for anyone interested in seasonal dishes prepared to perfection.
We woke up to a warm morning and after a quick coffee headed to our new Sur La Table store on 76th and 3rd ave. The store was busy and fitting into the neighborhood well. From the store we jumped on the subway and headed down to Soho to visit our store on Crosby Street.
Time for lunch and we took advantage of a friends suggestion for interesting Asian twist at MOMOFUKU at 207 2nd and 13th. Worth the try. Back to the round bed and a quick drink in the Oak Room at the Plaza before we dashed off to see Spider Man. We both agree that it is worth the evening entertainment to experience the flying cast and wonderful spoof on New York.
Always a good late night feast at NOBU on 57th street. We had a wonderful waiter and one dish after the next was unique, of course we had to much food but the scallop dish had to be added.
Next morning we headed to the now famous "Eataly" Mario has a hit on his hands. the space takes up half the block and each corner offered a different opportunity to taste a bit of Italian specialities. there are 4 different places to sit and eat, pasta, sliced meats salads and more. The take out looked great and of course the hundreds of people walking through gives energy. Not sure how much was being bought but it was worth the visit. Eataly—200 5th Ave at 23rd.
We did not eat at Eataly but headed down to Tribeca for lunch at a fun cafe called "Bread at 301 Church, near Walker." I believe I had some of the best carpaccio I have had in years.
We walked around explored the ground zero and took the subway back to the hotel for a rest before our dinner at Marea. Owner Michael White has introduced Italian food at a new level, light, local, fresh ingredients especially focused on fish. Every course was well presented and the wine list was amazing. There is not a bad seat in the restaurant it is just getting a seat that is hard. Call ahead 212-582-5100.
The last night we headed down to —-Imperial #9 —in The Mondrian SoHo Hotel. The front room which is a glass greenhouse type room is like being invited into Alice In Wonderland's house. The concept is samll plates to share and each one came to the table making us think that the next one could not be as good as the last. Make a reservation and go not only for the good food but the people watching. Don't forget to order the grilled fresh Alaskan King Crab legs.
Enjoy the city on your next visit we sure did.

Karl Rudolph Koenig (German: Rudolf Koenig; 26 November 1832 – 2 October 1901), known by himself and others as Rudolph Koenig, was a German physicist, chiefly concerned with acoustic phenomena.
Koenig was born in Königsberg (Province of Prussia), and studied at the University of Königsberg in his native town.
He was never received any formal education or anythings that associated with any school. About 1852 he went to Paris, and became apprentice to the famous violin-maker, Jean Baptiste Vuillaume (1798-1875), and some six years later he started business on his own account. He called himself a "maker of musical instruments," but the instrument for which his name is best known is the tuning fork. Koenig's work speedily gained a high reputation among physicists for accuracy and general excellence. From this business Koenig derived his livelihood for the rest of his life. One of his last catalogs had 262 different items. his shop dedicated a significant for science and physics.
He was, however, very far from being a mere tradesman. Acoustical research was his real interest, and to that he devoted all the time and money he could spare from his business. In the 1860s, the Koenig sound analyzer revolutionized musical and scientific worlds by demonstrated visually that musical notes and voices were in fact made up of simple sounds. An exhibit which he sent to the London Exhibition of 1862 gained a gold medal for his instruments. This was the first time his nano-metric flame apparatus was displayed to the public. At the Philadelphia Exposition at 1876 great admiration was expressed for a tonometric apparatus of his manufacture. This consisted of about 670 tuning-forks, of as many different pitches, extending over four octaves, and it afforded a perfect means for testing, by enumeration of the beats, the number of vibrations producing any given note and for accurately tuning any musical instrument. An attempt was made to secure this apparatus for the University of Pennsylvania, and Koenig was induced to leave it behind him in America on the assurance that it would be purchased; but, ultimately, the money not being forthcoming, the arrangement fell through, to his great disappointment.
Some of the forks he disposed of to the University of Toronto and the remainder he used as a nucleus for the construction of a still more elaborate tonometer. While the range of the old apparatus was only between 128 and 4096 Hz, the lowest fork of the new one vibrated at only 16 Hz, while the highest gave a sound too high to be perceptible to the human ear.
Koenig's manometric flame apparatus (1862), used to visualize sound waves. Air pressure from an acoustic phone altered the flame provided by a Bunsen gas flame, which was amplified by a rotating mirror and recorded
Koenig will also be remembered as the inventor and constructor of many other beautiful pieces of apparatus for the investigation of acoustical problems, among which may be mentioned his wave-sirens, the first of which was shown at Philadelphia in 1876. His original work dealt, among other things, with Wheatstone's sound-figures, the characteristic notes of the different vowels, a manometric flame apparatus, a vibration microscope, among others; but perhaps the most important of his researches are those devoted to the phenomena produced by the interference of two tones, in which he disputed the views of Helmholtz as to the existence of summation and difference tones.
He passed away on October 2nd, 1901 in Paris. He was sixty-nine years old and his health had been declining for some time.

Hi, Rusty for this scenario you will need your service manual, parts fiche, and owners manual if you can't find the best tool you ever bought for your TaoTao, despair not, for a mere zero $0 you can download another one.
If you have to ask, generally no! The base price is $10,400.
Take it to a local jeweller and ask them to remove the back. Tell them you think it might need cleaning. Then ask them if it is authentic. They can tell you in 5 seconds.
There are some good videos in the link. You will need a Jewelers Loupe to check some of the details.

Those in Okinawa looking for an "authentic" American experience will often head to American Village, in Chatan, central Okinawa. As an American, it was interesting to see how Americana has manifested in Okinawa. Of course, the themed shopping district caters heavily to the US military personnel that occupy a large portion of the island.
I few years ago I visited New York City's Dominique Ansel Bakery at the height of the Cronut's popularity. People were standing in line during the wee hours of the morning, before sunrise, so that they could then resell the coveted Cronut for $50+ on Craigslist. Yeah, we weren't down for that. Instead, we opted for a late afternoon visit with no Cronut's in sight. Luckily, Ansel opened a shop in the very trendy Omotesando area of Shibuya in Tokyo in 2015 which made it a lot easier for me to taste a DAB Cronut. Let's check out Dominique Ansel in Omotesando, Tokyo!
If you plan to enjoy breakfast at Morning Glass Coffee + Cafe in Manoa on a sleepy Saturday morning, then be sure to get there early. Even then, lines begin to form shortly after their first drop of coffee is served. It's a popular spot amongst locals and Japanese tourists. Thing is, the Japanese no longer have to fly very far to get their Morning Glass Coffee fix since there is now a location in Osaka. Of course, I had to fly from Hawaii to check it out.
For my birthday this year, my wife got me a subscription to Bokksu – a premium Japanese snack box that is mailed out every month. My first box came last month (it was an Osaka themed box)…but I ate it all before I was able to document it…so, let's start with the May 2017 Bokksu!

He was also a businessman in Kano.[4]
ReignEdit
Igwe Kenneth Onyeneke Orizu III (born 1925) is the 20th Obi of Otolo and Igwe of Nnewi kingdom though of seventeenth generation.
Igwe Orizu II was instrumental in the clearing of the Agbo Edo forest. His Uncle, Prince Nwafor Orizu was Nigeria's first republic senate President and his grandfather, Igwe Orizu I (Eze Ugbonyamba) was the first Igbo man to own and drive a car in the entire Eastern Region.[4] The Ofala Nnewi is a cultural festival held every year to celebrate the coronation of the Igwe of Nnewi.[5]

Film on TV: January 11-17
January 11, 2010 Jandy	Leave a comment
Henry V, playing on TCM Saturday at 6:00am.
There haven't been so many newly featured films to highlight for quite a while as there are this week. Nice to have some new stuff to write up for a change! We have a couple of 1940s British classics in Henry V and Kind Hearts and Coronets on Saturday and Sunday respectively, plus some adaptations of great 19th and 20th century literature – A Streetcar Named Desire on Monday, and The Heiress and Cyrano de Bergerac on Sunday. This is the 1950 version of Cyrano, which I don't think is quite as good as Gerard Depardieu's 1990 version, but hey. It's on right after Steve Martin's Cyrano-inspired Roxanne, so there's the fun of comparing and contrasting them. For musical fans, a couple of not-quite-classic but still enjoyable MGM productions: Ziegfeld Follies on Tuesday and Broadway Melody of 1936 on Sunday. And a few more recent offerings are also new to us this week, like Brian DePalma's Blow Out on Sunday and the more-fun-than-I-expected Go on Monday.
8:00pm – IFC – Go
In the first section of this tripartite film, bored grocery store clerk Sarah Polley seizes an opportunity to broker a drug deal when her dealing coworker takes a trip to Vegas. It goes very wrong. Meanwhile, her coworker in Vegas gets mixed up in a murder there. Also meanwhile, two actors work with a narcotics officer to break up the drug ring. All three stories tie up together in the end, but not before a lot of well-constructed Pulp Fiction-esque jumping around. A lot of fun, and better than you might expect.
1999 USA. Director: Doug Liman. Starring: Sarah Polley, Katie Holmes, Jay Mohr, Scott Wolf.
(repeats at 3:00am)
10:15pm – TCM – A Streetcar Named Desire
Elia Kazan's adaptation of Tennessee Williams' southern gothic play unleashed Marlon Brando upon the world and served as a strong comeback for Vivien Leigh – all in all, not a bad day's work.
1951 USA. Director: Elia Kazan. Starring: Vivien Leigh, Marlon Brando, Karl Malden, Kim Stanley.
3:00pm – TCM – Ziegfeld Follies
A plotless film, intended to recreate the revue-style musical show that Ziegfeld was so well known for in the early days of Broadway. Not every segment is worthwhile, but Fred Astaire's three numbers (one of them with Gene Kelly, the only time they worked together until That's Entertainment!) are great, and Judy Garland has a fun spot doing a Greer Garson parody.
1946 USA. Director: Vincente Minnelli. Starring: Fred Astaire, Gene Kelly, Judy Garland, Lucille Ball, Fanny Brice, Lucille Bremer, William Powell.
6:00am – Sundance – A Woman Under the Influence
Gena Rowlands gives a tour-de-force performance as Mabel, a woman whose teetering madness threatens her marriage to Nick (Peter Falk). Their relationship edges back and forth between love, frustration, and anger with amazing quickness, yet it's not clear whether Mabel's instability is causing the problems, or the other way around. John Cassavetes directs with an unwavering camera, refusing to look away.
1974 USA. Director: John Cassavetes. Starring: Gena Rowlands, Peter Falk, Fred Draper, Lady Rowlands.
(repeats at 12:00N)
8:15am – Sundance – Bob le Flambeur
Jean-Pierre Melville's noirish crime film about an aging gambler/thief who takes on one last job – knocking over a casino. Melville was the master of French crime films, and an important figure leading up to the New Wave – Godard name-checks this film in Breathless, mentioning Bob le flambeur (Bob the Gambler) as an associate of Michel's.
1956 France. Director: Jean-Pierre Melville. Starring: Roger Duchesne, Isabelle Corey, Gérard Buhr, Daniel Gauchy.
One of the best courtroom dramas ever made – James Stewart vs. George C. Scott as lawyers on a murder/rape trial that may not be quite what it seems. And that's aside from the top-notch jazz score by Duke Ellington, which is in itself reason enough to see the film.
1959 USA. Director: Otto Preminger. Starring: James Stewart, George C. Scott, Lee Remick.
6:15pm – TCM – While the City Sleeps
The head of a New York newspaper dies, leaving it in his son Vincent Price's hands to choose someone to promote: managing editor Thomas Mitchell, lead reporter Dana Andrews, or a couple of other people. The way to get the job? Get the scoop on the serial killer taking out women around the city. It gets a little plot-heavy at times, but it's so full of classic character actors and the noirish feel that director Fritz Lang does so well that it's still very worthwhile.
1956 United States. Director: Fritz Lang. Starring: Dana Andrews, Rhonda Fleming, Thomas Mitchell, Vincent Price, Ida Lupino, George Sanders
1957 USA/UK. Director: David Lean. Starring: Alec Guinness, William Holden, Sessue Hayakawa.
8:00pm – IFC – Kill Bill Vol. 1
A lot of people would point to Pulp Fiction as Tarantino's best film, and I think Inglourious Basterds is right up there, too, but I vote Kill Bill Vol. 1 for sheer amount of fun. He homages spaghetti westerns, Hong Kong fighting flicks, and revenge-sploitation, and ties it all together with incredible style.
2003 USA. Director: Quentin Tarantino. Starring: Uma Thurman, Lucy Liu, Vivica A. Fox, Daryl Hannah, David Carradine.
10:00pm – IFC – Kill Bill Vol. 2
10:00pm – Sundance – The Squid and the Whale
Jeff Daniels and Laura Linney are married writers/academics who finally drive each other too crazy to keep living together, bringing their two adolescent sons into their turmoil when they separate. Everything about the film works together to create one of the best films of the past few years. Writer/director Noah Baumbach has crafted a highly intelligent script which is achingly witty and bitterly funny; the acting is superb all around; the music fits beautifully, and even the setting (1980s Brooklyn) is something of a character.
2005 USA. Director: Noah Baumbach. Starring: Jeff Daniels, Laura Linney, Jesse Eisenberg, Owen Kline.
3:00am (15th) – IFC – Hero
Jet Li is the titular hero in this Zhang Yimou film, arguably the best of Yimou's period action-on-wires films (though I'm partial to House of Flying Daggers myself). The story unfolds in flashback as Li explains to a warlord how he eliminated three would-be assassins (who happen to be three of Hong Kong cinema's biggest stars, incidentally) – but all may not be precisely how it seems.
2002 China. Director: Zhang Yimou. Starring: Jet Li, Zhang Ziyi, Tony Leung, Maggie Cheung.
9:15pm – IFC – The Cooler
William H. Macy plays a loser whose bad luck gets him a job as a "cooler" at a casino – his luck spreads and cools off any hot winning streaks that might be going on. But when he starts a relationship with Maria Bello, his new-found love and acceptance turns his luck. This film reinforced my knowledge of Bill Macy's talent, made me take notice of Maria Bello, and gave Alec Baldwin pretty much his best role until 30 Rock.
2003 USA. Director: Wayne Cramer. Starring: William H. Macy, Mario Bello, Alec Baldwin.
6:00am – TCM – Henry V (1944)
Laurence Olivier's version of Shakespeare's historical epic was made during WWII and reflects England's need of a national hero to look up to – his Henry is the epitome of English goodness and strength, making it interesting to compare this version with Kenneth Branagh's much more conflicted Henry. Also notable for its art direction, borrowed from medieval illustrations.
1944 UK. Director: Laurence Olivier. Starring: Laurence Olivier, Renee Asherson, Leslie Banks.
6:00am – TCM – Broadway Melody of 1936
MGM made four films under the Broadway Melody title (in 1929, 1935, 1936 and 1940), and this is easily the best – a polished, sparkling show biz tale with the production detail you expect from 1930s MGM. Eleanor Powell can dance up a storm no matter what film she's in, and this is one of the few she did, honestly, that has any interest outside of her tap numbers.
1935 USA. Director: Roy Del Ruth. Starring: Robert Taylor, Eleanor Powell, Jack Benny, Una Merkel, Sid Silvers, Buddy Ebsen.
10:00am – TCM – Kind Hearts and Coronets
In one of the zaniest of the zany comedies that Alec Guinness was best known for in his early career, he plays eight, count 'em, eight characters – all relatives in line to receive a duke's massive fortune upon his death. The last in line plots to murder all the others to make himself the sole heir.
1949 UK. Director: Robert Hamer. Starring: Alec Guinness, Joan Greenwood, Valerie Hobson, Dennis Price.
4:00pm – TCM – The Heiress
Olivia de Havilland won her Oscar for her role as the title character in this adaptation of Henry James' Washington Square, a woman forbidden from love with a young suitor because her controlling father fears the suitor is only a fortune hunter.
1949 USA. Director: William Wyler. Starring: Olivia de Havilland, Montgomery Clift, Ralph Richardson, Miriam Hopkins.
8:00pm – IFC – Blow Out
Sound man John Travolta is recording sound samples one night, and may have accidentally recorded a murder occurring. As he tries to investigate, he's drawn into a dangerous conspiracy. Inspired to some degree by Antonioni's photography-based Blow-Up, but this is definitely DePalma's film all the way.
1981 USA. Director: Brian DePalma. Starring: John Travolta, Nancy Allen, John Lithgow, Dennis Franz.
(repeats 12:45am on the 18th)
8:00pm – TCM – Roxanne
Steve Martin takes on the classic story of Cyrano de Bergerac and his doomed love for the oblivious Roxanne, transposing it into modern times and making it much more consciously comedic.
1987 USA. Director: Fred Schepisi. Starring: Steve Martin, Daryl Hannah, Rick Rossovich.
10:00pm – TCM – Cyrano de Bergerac (1950)
And here's a straight version of Cyrano. This time Jose Ferrer (who won an Oscar for the role) plays the title character, a poet marred by the extreme size of his nose, whose love for Roxanne is such that he helps handsome but dull Christian woo her since he thinks she'll never notice him.
1950 USA. Director: Michael Gordon. Starring: Jose Ferrer, Mala Powers, William Prince.
10:00pm – Sundance – The Lives of Others
2:15am (18th) – TCM – Wild Strawberries
On his way to accept an honorary degree, elderly medical doctor Victor Sjöström thinks back and re-evaluates his life while being plagued by nightmares. Sounds kinda depressing, but then again, it is Ingmar Bergman. And he has a way of making depressing seem AWESOME.
1957 Sweden. Director: Ingmar Bergman. Starring: Victor Sjöstroöm, Bibi Andersson, Ingrid Thulin, Gunnar Björnstrand.
