A word from Davy's St James
A short walk from Green Park tube station, Davy's St James, a traditional wine bar and restaurant, really couldn't boast a better location. One of a popular London mini-chain, Davy's offers a fabulous atmosphere, great food and excellence in wine developed over almost 150 years in the industry. The styling of Davy's St James focuses very much on the history both of the setting and the brand, the surroundings giving the impression of a meeting place that has been here for many, many years. So you'll find a cosy spot in which to escape the busy streets, complete with candlelit tables, sawdust covered floors and shelving lined with bottles in truly traditional style. From midday onwards Davy's St James offers a superb Modern European a la carte menu, featuring numerous delicious dishes as well as a fine selection of hot and cold bar snacks. However, the real talking point here is the wine, an excellent selection of own label drops plus vintage and modern fine wines.Continued

- Old School English Dining ExperiencIainDined on 26/6/2014A great traditional old school English dining experience - the best Bangers and Mash in town and their Old Wallop in pewter mugs is the best. Evenings seemed quiet though and staff were sparse leading to only fair service, probably more of a lunch time spot.Special Features:
- good dealdelish2Dined on 16/5/2014Very pleasant evening; good food and service. Thank you Davy's.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- ExcellentCLAIREDined on 15/5/2014This is an excellent little hide away from the hustle and bustle of central London. The food was very good, there was no rush and it was a relaxed environment with friedly staff. Not expensive.Special Features:
- Excellent ValueGGPtrsVIPDined on 9/5/2014Excellent value with 50% offer. Good courgette and mint soup and excellent sirloin steaks cooked exactly as ordered.Special Features:
- Cool dark cellarRocketRobDined on 24/4/2014We dined because of a 50 per cent discount offer via OpenTable. The service was very friendly - professional and courteous. The food itself was pretty good. Our starters were lovely. I had haddock and poached egg. My partner had carpaccio. Both were very tasty. I had sausage and mash with a red wine gravy. The sausages were large and tasty and there was plenty of mash, but I was disappointed that there wasn't very much of the gravy - I felt like I had to 'save' it rather than being able to mash it into my potato. As such, I felt that my dish was a little dry. It was still good - just not exceptional.Special Features:
- DisappointedsaphtaVIPDined on 23/4/2014This was our third visit to Davy's and unfortunately this time wasn't as good as previously. I don't know what went wrong but our booking was for 5.30pm and the two dishes I wanted i.e. the Brie and PotatoTartlet as a starter and the Lamb as main had both run out as had other dishes. I can understand this happening late in the Evening but not at 5.30. The waitresses and service however are first class. We will go there again and hope that this was a "one off" bad evening.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- FaultlessIanJLondonDined on 22/4/2014Nothing at all to criticise. Steaks superb, staff attentive, excellent all round.Special Features:
- Nice dining experiencedomilouDined on 16/4/2014We were a party of six( 4 adults and 2 teennagers) coming from Belgium. We had a great time there and the food was excellent. We had reserved a 50% on food deal which made an outstanding value. To be highly recommended.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- MehchickenlickyDined on 11/4/2014It was a nice evening and the service was excellent. I was really disappointed by the food.
- Davy's St James - LunchPJ123Dined on 11/4/2014First time diner at this location. Attracted by the discounted price, but impressed with the experience. I will definitely return to this particular place, and hopefully stay a little longer.Special Features:
- Pretty goodlivetoeatDined on 4/4/2014Starters and mains were well cooked and on the whole well thought out and tasty. We enjoyed smoked salmon, scallops and lamb. The puddings were a little disappointing though. A chocolate pudding had been rather zealously nuked and came out dry with not enough coffee cream to resuscitate it. The highlight of the evening was our wonderful waitress Joanna. She was polite, charming and chatty without being overbearing. A real asset to the restaurant.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Surprisingly wonderfulTwogirlsVIPDined on 3/4/2014I booked the 50% food offer, selecting the place half based on geography (half way between the workplaces of my friend and I) and the other half as I like good wine! The 2006 Bordeaux wine was priced very well - the 2 x markup was no where close to many other restaurants who charge 3 or 4 times retail. The food (we ordered steak) was outstanding and easily as good as many other steak restaurants in the Piccadilly area and again at a very competitive price. I cannot wait to go there again.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- steak and wineFoodieDined on 27/3/2014we had a wonderful dinner at Davy's which was very busy being a Friday night. atmosphere was buzzing and we had a quiet corner as it was dinner for two. we both had ribeye steak cooked to perfection. Service by Joanna was impeccable. the bottle of red wine complemented our meal nicely. joined the Davy's loyalty programme as I am sure I will be going to this restaurant many times in the futureSpecial Features:
- A good spot for a group gatheringKeenonvalueDined on 21/3/2014Great value with special offer meaning our group meal didn't break the bank - great location with buzzy young crowd. Food was generally good, with an excellent steak, pronounced best ever by the eater! This is not a pretentious spot, with a wine bar ambience - so fine if you want to meet up with a crowd after work and not everyone is eating. The service was friendly and efficient and they gave us a free bottle of champagne when they discovered it was a birthday dinner!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Nice venue, average foodJHLondonDined on 20/3/2014I had dinner at Davy's St James with two friends.The menu sounded nice but the pheasant I had was a bit dry. The wine is reasonably priced and extensive. Venue has great ambience - lots of "nooks and crannies" - great for meeting a small group of friends. I would go there again for a drink - it was a real find. However, I would probably only resort to eating there because a lot of tourists don't know the place. The staff had good knowledge of the menu but the menu did not include a wheat-free dessert which was disappointing for me, although I hadn't enquired when booking. There is a 2- and 3-course special price for the a l carte menu so you don't need to book for 50% off food, which equates to about the same cost.Special Features:
- Delicious dining at Davy's St JamesthefouramigosDined on 19/3/2014With two work colleagues I dined early evening at Davy's St James using the 50% off food deal from Top Table. This proved to be excellent value. Service was a little slow to begin with, considering there were not many diners at the time but very helpful. Of particular note: one of my friends is gluten intolerant and I had therefore alerted the restaurant when I completed the booking form - on arrival we were given a specially marked up version of the menu highlighting all the dishes that were (or could be prepared) as gluten free. We all felt this was really helpful. The menu was wide-ranging but we all opted for steaks - and they were fabulous! Definitely worth a visit!I would recommend this to a friend.
- Twice in a weeksaphtaVIPDined on 19/3/2014Yes it was the second time in eight days that we have eaten at Davys. The bartender gave us a very warm welcome and we felt good from the start. The food was as good as the previous visit so we hadn't imagined it. The only thing we didn't enjoy was the Welsh Rarebit which really wasn't tasty at all. The waitress was delightful and even though there were not many people the layout of the restaurant does not give give this impression. Please continue with the 50% offer.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- LunchFoodieDined on 18/3/2014Lunch was excellent and we ate fish and chips. Service was professional and efficient. Great value and good choice of food. Will definitely go again. Enrolled for the loyalty card.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great atmosphere, good foodjakoDined on 14/3/2014Great atmosphere, good food and friendly, knowledgeable staff.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- WowsaphtaVIPDined on 12/3/2014It was our first time at Davy's and definitely wont be the last. Everything was perfect. The food was delicious, the service was great we had a delightful waitress who was extremely helpful and knowledgeable. The place was buzzing, possibly because there was also a private gathering there but I think even if it wasn't so busy the atmosphere would still have been good. We shall certainly visit again very soon but as we are 2 old age pensioners it will only be possible with the 50% discount. We do eat out once a week at toptable restaurant offers and this was one of our favourites. Thanks for a lovely evening.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- DarkgastronautVIPDined on 10/3/2014A dimly lit cellar. Steaks excellent and good value with 50% offer. Unfortunately the waitress was unable to answer questions about the menu and service was generally slow. Dessert wine was unavailable despite being recommended on the menu and the crumble was identical to one we had from a supermarket chain at home the previous day. The custard was lukewarm. After 2.30 pm there were very few diners.I would recommend this to a friend.
- Not badrhysoh1Dined on 7/3/2014Only downside to Davy's was walking through the door, it was a little bit confusing with no one to greet you as you came in. When we got downstairs it just looked like a busy pub, after we got attention we were taken to the table that was out of the way of all the noise. The waitress was very very good had brilliant customer service skills ,made us feel welcome and not ignored. Food was brilliant! Only down side is that the starters could have been less fancy ! A Simple dish for a starter would have been good. Main course was really good:) overall I would go back again and recommend this place.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Perfect night outRosiDined on 5/3/2014Food was lovely, really good service and great wine.. We loved the placeSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- Stunning SteakSilverJubileeDined on 21/2/2014Great value for money, particularly with the special offers currently available. The best steak I have ever eaten.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- The following 27 reviews are from the Davy's St James reviews archive.
- Great lunch without the extrasOxfordDined on 15/11/2013Four of us had a jolly lunch here, three steaks perfectly cooked and a delicious pheasant, washed down with a hearty bottle of red wine. The sting in the tail came with the bill when each sauce which accompanied the steaks was charged seperately. However it was an enjoyable lunch in a cosy atmosphere and I would recommend it. Just check what are "extras".Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Excellent meal and wine listRubesVIPDined on 12/9/2013Excellent meal and wine list but service was very slow (again - second recent visit). However, quality of food won it for me.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Team Lunch at Davy'sMish0Dined on 6/9/2013I was a bit sceptical about the location because some of the reviews mentioned "a basement". Yes it is underground but purposely I dare say as it is part of the ambience of a wine bar. With the 50% off deal this is really is the most outstanding value I have ever booked through top-table. I had a 220g amazing rare fillet which simply was melting for £15! Strong recommend and going back again until the offer lasts.Special Features:
- Davy St JamesHjj5Dined on 5/9/2013Good value with the 50% off and would recommend that deal to anyone. Bit pricy without it.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Absolutely wonderfulNKingDined on 5/9/2013The food was delicious, the service was outstanding. I would definitely go back.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Excellent DealBrisyDined on 23/8/2013Took advantage of 50% of food and found the food to be excellent. The last Toptable deal we went to (not this restaurant) was poor and so almost didn't take advantage of this offer. Would recommend this dealSpecial Features:
- Davy's St JamesAnnaVIPDined on 15/8/2013Davy's St James is a good place if you want great food, great ambience, great service and great value for you money, especially with Toptable's special offer. I also want to give the restaurant 10 extra stars for not adding service charge to the bill, they obviously know that their food and service is outstanding and does not need to fish for it, customers tip anyway. We certainly did.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Food and value quite good,fredDined on 9/8/2013Food and value quite good, but lacked any atmosphere. Given that it is in a basement this lack made the venue seem unwelcoming. Would be good for lunch when I think it is much busier, evening would after the office worker have left would appear to be very quiet.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Perhaps it's because it's AugustLondonerDined on 9/8/2013I thought the restaurant was a little empty, especially considering the location and the amazing Top Table deal. Perhaps it's because you can't get a mobile signal downstairs... and so it puts those off who are hooked to their smartphones rather than their dinner date. Or perhaps everyone's on holiday. The food was good. I had the fish and chips, which was so crunchy I practically broke the plate when my knife eventually went through the batter. Very tasty mushy peas too. My gin & tonic was decent and unfortunately went down too quickly, but I have to say it was a good size and not at all poncy. Overall, a good experience, made better by the amazing top table offer.Special Features:
- Met here with my adult soncupcakeVIPDined on 6/8/2013Met here with my adult son for a catch up. Friendly and helpful service, great steak and wine. Nice atmosphere to talk. Would defo go again and with the 50% offer great value.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Well worth itJulesDined on 21/6/2013Outstanding value with 3 lovely courses for £22.95, yes we spent a little more with champagne and wine but it was well worth it. Each course was perfectly proportioned so don't opt for just 2 courses wondering if you might not manage the dessert. A lovely evening in a restaurant that deserves 4 to 5 stars. We will be back.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- DrinksSLSPDined on 9/11/2012We stopped here before dinner for some drinks. The wine list is very good and at a reasonable price. It is not loud and noisy so it's possible to have a conversation, but it is a buzzy atmosphere. A good find and a nice place to enjoy a good bottle of wine.Special Features:

- Expensive mediocre foodSak1VIPDined on 11/26/2014Not worth the price. My food was cold in the middle and tasted like it was frozen and reheated. Service was slow and our server forgot to bring out the wine. Skip this place and opt for other good restaurants nearby within a few minutes walk.
- Great food and beautiful settingOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 11/23/2014Loved the experience in this restaurant located on the beach side of La Concha.

- Great for that special occasion!OpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 11/20/2014The night and dinner could have not gone more perfectly. The service was excellent right from the hostess at the door to the waitress who served us. The restaurant was beautiful and I'm quite sure that had we arrived on time for the sunset the water would have been even more so. The food was excellent! The portions and taste, perfect. They also have a huge selection of wines for you to enjoy from. Everything was perfect. Simply perfect.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- In a perle in a shellOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 10/31/2014The ambiance is fantastic, enjoyed the background music, and the view is awesome. We were greeted quickly and taken to our table. The service was outstanding, very attentive. The order consisted of the lobsters bisque and it was delicious, beat salad and fillet mignon. It was cooked perfectly with the delicious sauce. The pan seared fish was average, the cucumber, mango, pineapple chutney gave it a tropical flavor. For dessert the orange creme Brulé and orange sorbet was very good and the right size for two. It was a romantic evening and we left very content with our new found pearl.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- Amazing views with food to matchJAMKCDined on 9/16/2014My wife and I had an excellent dinner here while on a cruise. It was a short cab ride from the Port at Old San Juan. The views and ambiance were amazing. I had the tuna steak which was terrific. My wife had the filet with the bacon encrusted coffee jam and it was exceptional. Not usually a fan of sauce on a steak but this sauce was to die for. Great romantic mean with a fantastic view!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Awesome experienceLiz11Dined on 9/11/2014My birthday celebration was amazing, the food and service made the evening much more special.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Off MenuKBletshavefunDined on 9/5/2014After reviewing the menu, which had great options, I asked Miguel, our waiter if the Chef offered a prefix menu. Chef Lendel offered a 6 course dinner with a wine pairing. So, for my 60th birthday, I accepted the 6 course tour of the menu with the wine pairings. Each course was beautifully presented and a continuous surprise of flavors from the cold pea soup with lobster and risotto accompanied by a light crisp white wine, to the sea bass with Pinot noir to the white coconut flan with cafe con leche, and a candle, of course. What a superb dining experience! Miguel and his assistant, Nicole made sure all our needs were met and expectations exceeded. To my surprise but not disappointment, there was no beef in any of the 6 courses. Five Stars!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Fatally Flawedeager2enjoyDined on 9/3/2014My wife and I went to celebrate an anniversary and her entree was served cold---cold as previously frozen and not properly prepared before serving. Waitress made reasonable effort to make this misstep right, but my entree was left with me while hers was removed and, by the time I was finished (can't leave fish waiting too long) her entree was still not served. Not only was I surprised that they would but a frozen entree on the menu, but that on a night when there was but a few tables of diners in the whole restaurant, that they would serve it without proper care and attention. Oh well, one of those things, but once things got out of sync, it just didn't work out.Special Features:

- My reviewSHinDined on 8/24/2014Atmosphere of this restaurant is outstanding. That must be suitable for a couple or business dinner. However even though it is expensive, it does not taste outstanding but it is ok taste.Special Features:
- La Perla has excellent service.NothappyDined on 8/21/2014The pan seared sea bass was recommended by the waiter and he was right. It was delicious! The lobster broth was light and tasty. Very rich. Our waiter Luis was the best waiter we have ever had. Great experience.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Best Seafood RestaurantIrisVIPDined on 8/19/2014We went for a very late dinner. It was very quiet but the service was impeccable- From the bartender to our server. The menu items sounded delicious. It was the 4 of us so we decided to order many different dishes to try it out. Honestly, this is the best seafood restaurant with an amazing view of the beach. You can hear the waves. Scallops and sea bass were my favorite! Definitely need to try their dessert. They have an awesome ice cream and sorbet menu.Special Features:
- Perfect experience!TheTruthBToldDined on 8/18/2014Everything was great. The restaurant is beautiful. The service and the food was outstanding. I ordered a bottle of wine and when tastes it, really didn't care for it although there was nothing "wrong" with it. They said no problem and just brought me a different bottle. Outstanding! I would recommend the restaurant and will definitely return.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Made Anniversary SpecialJimiGDined on 8/12/2014We went to Perla for our anniversary dinner while in Puerto Rico, everything about this restaurant was spectacular. The hostess greeted us and sat us at our table which was nice but our waiter moved us to a nicer table knowing that it was a special occasion. Very nice wine selection and the food was excellent. When we finished our dinner our waiter (Miguel) brought out a complementary dessert with Happy Anniversary written on the plate. Perla made our special day even more special.Special Features:
- TerribleHorribleDined on 8/12/2014The food was horrible and way over priced. You would think they would have rare wines as well... But no, they had wine I typically get from grocery store for $10 (14 hands). They wanted $50! That just topped it off. The chicken was worse I ever had n lobster was not good. I recommend choices restaurant at the sheraton convention center instead. No view... But wayyy better food
- Welcome to Atlantis!!!ThePerfectPalateDined on 8/12/2014The atmosphere is surreal and the food is impeccable! You'll feel like you're immersed in the sea amongst excuisitly well thought out architecture. The food here is also phenomenal! I've dined at 5 star Michelin award wining restaurants and this place stands up to the competition. I highly recommend the sea bass and lobster, some of the best I've ever tasted on earth! Tip--> Early dinning is optional but to truly take in this experience I suggest a 7:15-7:30 reservation.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Nice space; mediocre expensive foodMachDined on 8/11/2014We come to San Juan frequently on the way to our house on the Western side of the island. There are some truly innovative, amazing restaurants in San Juan. This is not one of them. It is a pretty space, no doubt, but the food was unimpressive -- typical, fairly mediocre big city U.S. fare, with no bites that oohed or aahed. We had the ceviche (fine, not great, and diminutive); curry shrimp (not bad, just not inspiring -- red curry shrimp flavor from a decent Thai place); scallops (again, not bad, just not wow); the sea bass (yawn, sigh); and the graham cracker ice cream dessert (less flavor rather than smore). Service was fine, wine list was okay for Puerto Rico. Honestly, just wanted more yum. Only go if nothing else is open.Special Features:
- The best restaurantTsantiagoDined on 8/9/2014Is the best restaurant, the food was delicius, the service was great, its the best steak i ever eat.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- Perla is beautifulOpenTable Diner Since 2009Dined on 8/7/2014The restaurant is very beautiful especially in the later evening. Our reservations were for 6:30pm which may have been a little too early. I think most people eat a little later there. The resort itself is beautiful and a nice place to hang out after the meal. The meal itself was very expensive.Special Features:

Nuts About Cashewsby Toby Amidor in Healthy Recipes, October 4, 2012
We've told you how nuts we are about walnuts, almonds, peanuts, and pistachios but let's not forget about cashews.
Cashew Basics
These nuts are thought to have originated in northeast Brazil. The kidney-shaped, gray-brown colored cashew nut grows from the bottom of a fleshy stalk that resembles the shape of a pear (though is referred to as the cashew apple). The cashew apple has a bright yellow or red skin and is between 5 to 10 centimeters long. The cashew shell is toxic, that's why you can only purchase them shelled. Cashews have a distinct sweet, buttery flavor.
Today cashews are primarily produced in India, Brazil, Vietnam and Mozambique. Juice, syrup, preserves, wine and liquor are produced from the cashew apple, though the nut is the main form sold commercially in the U.S.
Nutrition Facts
One ounce (approximately 18 pieces) of unsalted cashews contains 160 calories, 4 grams of protein and 13 grams of fat – mostly the heart-healthy unsaturated type. Cashews are also an excellent source of magnesium and copper and a good source of vitamin K, iron, phosphorus, manganese and zinc.
What To Do With Cashews
Cashews can be enjoyed raw or dry roasted as a snack, in trail mix or homemade spiced nuts. Turn them into delicious cashew butter, use them in a stir-fry, on a vegetable side dish (like broccoli) or to top a salad. They can also be incorporated in sweeter goodies like cookies, muffins, candy and chocolate bark. Like most other nuts, roasting them helps deepen their nutty flavor.
Storage Tips
Store in a cool, dry location for up to 3 months or in the refrigerator for up to 6 months.
Recipes To Try:
- Wilted Bok Choy With Soy Sauce and Cashews
- Coffee Cashew Biscotti
- Broccoli and Cashew Crunch
- Spicy Cashews (note: this recipe slightly exceeds Healthy Eats' fat guidelines, though mostly from heart-healthy unsaturated fat)

October 2014
It helped that we had brilliant fall weather--cool and clear. But our guide/driver, Alice, couldn't have been more helpful and accommodating. Once we reached our destinations she steered us in the right direction but gave us ample time on our own for independent exploration. Lunch at a mill near Giverny was tasty in a very attractive setting. All in all, a fabulous day we shall treasure.
October 2014
We had a lovely guide and day. 6 of us were picked up on time and had a very informative day! It was lovely at Giverny and sad at Auvers sur Oise. I know we did Monet's Garden first because of the crowd management, but it might have been better to end on the high of Monet's success rather than Van Goh's seeming failure. Very nice lunch -nice group and great guide. Would recommend highly

Washington Report on Middle East Affairs, June 2004, pages 72-74
Arab-American Activism
Record-Breaking Attendance at American Task Force on Lebanon Gala
THIS YEAR'S American Task Force for Lebanon's Gala Awards Night, held March 31 at the Ritz-Carlton Hotel in Washington, DC, was the largest in the organization's history. The ATFL, which works to reinforce the historic relationship between the United States and Lebanon, each year honors awardees who have made contributions to their community and respective countries. Among the Arab-American luminaries in attendance were presidential candidate Ralph Nader, White House correspondent Helen Thomas, and Congressman Nick Rahall (D-WV). Also spotted in the audience were Congressman Chris John (D-LA) and ABC's Sam Donaldson.
Health and Human Services Secretary Tommy G. Thompson introduced Richard A. Abdoo, CEO and chairman of the board of Wisconsin Energy Corporation, a Fortune 500 company, who received the Joseph J. Jacob Distinguished Achievement Award.
"It's nice to win prizes," Abdoo told the audience, "but it's even better to be recognized by an organization with a special place in your heart."
Abdoo's grandparents immigrated from Lebanon in the early 20th Century and began living the classic American success story by selling fruit and groceries. Although his paternal grandfather, who had had little formal schooling, signed his driver's license with an "X," he realized the importance of a good education. In America freedom and rights are for everyone, Abdoo's grandfather and father taught him, but no one is guaranteed a job. That is a privilege, Abdoo said, and you need to work as hard as you can. "Those are the rock solid values that Arab Americans brought to this nation," he explained.
"Today this country is challenged by global terrorism, the effects of 9/11, the troubling occupation of Iraq, instability in the Middle East and the lost support of our global allies," Abdoo continued. Millions of jobs have moved offshore, he added, and American values like freedom, justice, generosity, and compassion have been shaken to the core. "We must not let this happen," Abdoo warned. "We must export freedom not by military means but by providing the tools of education and opportunity. We can set the example right here at home."
Ambassador Thomas A. Nassif, ATFL chairman, introduced Rep. Darrell Issa (R-CA), who serves on the House Energy and Commerce Committee. Congressman Issa, the grandson of Lebanese immigrants, is perhaps best known as the architect of the successful effort to recall former California Gov. Gray Davis. "Darrell was doing just fine," Nassif kidded, "until the Terminator turned up."
Issa was presented with the Philip C. Habib Award for Distinguished Public Service. In his remarks, the California congressman said that Lebanese Americans have a special honor and a special obligation. Their ties to Lebanon make them look at the world differently, he said—and that world is changing each day: 9/11, the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, and even Libya opening back up. For better or for worse, he said, Saudi Arabia and Iraq also are in transition. The capitals of the world had not helped Lebanon, Issa noted, and the issue of Palestine seems to be left for yet another generation. "We still haven't found out if Arabs and Jews can live together," Issa stated. "The status quo is less than acceptable. We wince at what is going on in the homes of our origin."
Despite these difficulties, Issa concluded, "There is hope because change is at hand."
The final award recipient was Lebanese Deputy Prime Minister Issam M. Fares, who has helped draft modern laws, government policies, and international support to bolster Lebanon's financial and economic stability. Describing "sectarianism as a cancer eating at Lebanon since 1946," Fares told the audience that the United States needs an even-handed policy in the Middle East. "If we solved the Arab/Israeli problem," he said, it would solve 99 percent of the problems in the region. We need a just and comprehensive peace.
"You can have reforms without peace, but reforms may not endure," Fares concluded. "Democratic reform thrives on a foundation of peace and stability."
The Capitol Steps comedy troupe provided a hilarious end to an uplifting, if sobering, evening.

Maryland County Celebrates Arab American Heritage Month
Montgomery County, Maryland, a suburb of Washington, DC, has designated the month of April to celebrate Arab American heritage. Artwork by members of a talented organization, Muslim Women in the Arts, was on view in the county's executive office building. A ceremony April 6, as well as an April 13 reception and open house, brought residents and visitors to admire the exhibit. Among the well-attended talks sponsored by the county, which prides itself on its promotion of multicultural dialogues and partnerships, was one entitled,"What is Arab? What is Islam? What is the Middle East?" It was clear that many Marylanders, including public officials, were interested in learning the answers.

The Jerusalem Fund's Gallery Hosts Exhibition of Art and Stories
The Jerusalem Fund's Gallery in Washington, DC held an April 2 reception to honor artist Helen Zughaib and introduce her newest exhibition of paintings with narrative entitled: "Stories My Father Told Me." Attendees admired Zughaib's vibrant art—her specialty is gouache and ink on board—and read the stories each painting illustrates.
Gallery curator Dagmar Painter asked audience members to share stories from their own family heritage. People told their memories of their fathers' fathers—stories of the Arab immigrant experience, histories and experiences that have shaped their world. They were encouraged to tape those tales and write them down.
Zughaib's "stories her father told her" include a poignant description of "Rising before dawn, they lined the edges of the ship, as they sailed into New York Harbor for the very first time...."
Many of the stories describe her father's annual summer visits to his grandfather's house in Zahle, a mountain village in Lebanon. He described his grandfather's love of poetry, and recalled some of the folk tales his family passed on for generations in order to teach lessons. He described village events like wedding feasts, Palm Sunday processions, preparing Sunday brunch kibbeh, and the "one big happy mess" that occurred when his village made molasses.
Zughaib, who has lived and worked in Washington, DC since 1985, uses color and pattern to define a new sense of space and perspective. She plans another exhibition at the newly opened National Arab American Museum in January 2005. We hope this exhibit turns into a book that can be enjoyed by every generation. In the meantime, artlovers can visit her Web site, <www.hzughaib.com>.

Remembering Edward Said
On April 6, Georgetown University held an event entitled "Remembering Edward Said: A Life in Literature and Social Justice." Sponsored by the university's Graduate School, English Department, and the Program on Justice and Peace, the memorial recognized Said's contributions to the humanities, literature and social justice movements.
The event commenced with a five-minute video presentation of one of Said's final lectures, which took place at the American-Arab Anti-Discrimination Committee's annual convention in June 2003. In his speech, Said described peace activist Rachel Corrie's actions as "heroic and dignified."
Philosophy Professor Mark Lance's reflections on Said, who died last Sept. 25, focused on the late professor's influence in "the global justice movement." Said's writing, Lance said, "urged eloquently for the demands of a deep and widening solidarity [among activists]."
Government Professor Bassam Haddad spoke of Said's impact on social science and the Arab world. Said's "most effective and canonical contribution" in this regard, Haddad said, was his book Orientalism. "Nothing can be written on the Middle East now without having to contend with the points Said raised in his seminal work," Haddad noted.
With the Sept. 11 terror attacks likely to "revive Orientalism," he added, Said's "recent writings told of how we can deal with such actions with intellectual honesty."
English Professor You-Me Park said Edward Said helped her "read, interpret, and change what Dr. [Martin Luther] King, Jr. called the great purveyor of violence, our own government." She recalled an October 1998 meeting on U.S. military violence against women in East Asia in which elderly women from Korea sat across the room from "white men in their 30s" who denied their claims of abuse. Said's writings, Park said, helped her "read the situation."
Orientalism, she continued, taught her about the "binary logic of colonialism" and helped her understand "the U.S. military's domination of East Asia," specifically the "masculinized power of the military." Concluding her presentation, which uniquely applied Said's theories about the Middle East to the U.S.'s relationship with East Asia, Park said Said "taught us that disasters and crises can be understood through our own mundane cultural lens."
Unlike the other presenters, David Lipscomb, also a professor in Geogetown's English department, had a personal relationship with Edward Said. He taught Said's daughter, Najla, high school English, and Lipscomb subsequently became Said's student at Columbia University.
Lipscomb admitted that he held preconceived notions about Said before even meeting him. "I assumed he would dislike the books I selected [for Najla's class], especially because there were so many Western books," he recalled. However, Lipscomb said, he discovered that Said "loved good literature wherever it was from, especially complex multi-layered [texts]." As a professor, Lipscomb added, Said often asked his students to question what was presented to them and not take it at face value. "I remember a quote from an interview [Said] gave in which he said, "˜The last thing I'm interested in is disciples.'"

Planting Olive Trees
- Planting olive trees with Jiddu (staff photo D. Hanley).
This is a story that was told to my father by his father. It is a lesson that is taught to children all over the Middle East in one form or another.
Visiting Jiddu (Grandfather) and Teta (Grandmother) in their mountain village was always a special treat. Teta would have special sweets and my favorite food prepared for me. Best of all, though, was Jiddu taking me with him to the fields. Sometimes it was just a brief trip to see how the plants were growing. But sometimes Jiddu would ask me to be "Jiddu's helper" and help him with some small chores. During one visit, Jiddu told me that we would be planting olive trees. Because we would be staying in the fields all day, we had to bring with us a zuwaidy (picnic lunch), water and other provisions.
The next morning, Jiddu and I set out for the fields much earlier than usual, with a donkey carrying our provisions and small olive plants. We worked hard planting the young olive trees in furrows which Jiddu had dug earlier. My job was to hold the plant straight while Jiddu would dig a small hole in the ground for each plant. Then I would ladle some water from a water drum and water each new olive tree.
During our break for lunch, I told Jiddu that next year I would return to help him harvest the olive crop. He smiled and said that would be difficult because olive trees take many years before they bear fruit. Disappointed, I asked him why we were bothering to plant olive trees if we would be dead before they would give us any fruit. He looked at me with a very serious expression and said: "Zara'u fa akalna, nazra'u fa ya'kulun" ("They planted so we would eat; we plant so our descendants will eat").

I heard songs of battle and war that I must have heard at every event I have attended over these last two years. But at Sir Randall's' campfire, I was drawn by songs and tales I have not heard at all. Songs from the 80's written and sung by a Duke who joined us later (I now know what the shishie-poke is), songs of elves, written and sung by a most beautiful one, tales of bravery told by a Knight and a Master at Arms, and songs of appreciation, sung by all there. I have seen on this list a post (made after I embarked on my journey to join the 3Kings) where Ivo wants a concrete statement about "this is what the college will do that is not being done". I do not know how this has been answered as yet, so please bear with me as I give it a try. What this college idea will do that is not being done now is, in my opinion, . * Collect songs and disperse them unto the known world to be both heard and not forgotten. * That last night of 3Kings, the discussion turned to some well-known facts. Such as; * Depending on memory and word of mouth to pass along songs and stories from one herald to the next means inevitable errors and changes - some by accident and some by design - so that singing a well-known piece at a multi-kingdom event will have, at best, mixed results. * This seasons favorites will be all but forgotten in just a few short years, and even the author can have trouble recalling them later on, when faced with remembering the large amount of currently performed pieces that need to be remembered to continue to be an effective entertainer. Compound that with the filks we sometimes write and you have one heck of a lot of grits to sort thru to find that one pearl you are wishing to perform. * Give Ansteorran Heralds a focal point. * As it is now, we only measure ourselves (and better ourselves) thru public performances. Why not make it possible for us to learn from each other without having to be in front of the public to do that. Create an environment where we have what amounts to a Bardic Symposium? Do we need to be on our own? * Then call it a Community instead of a College, a Symposium instead of a retreat or training. Heralds have the CoH to help bind them together and make the rules we heralds NEED to operate consistently throughout the Knowne World. Heralds also have the Known World Heraldic & Scribal Symposium to help them disseminate all that knowledge. As Bards, we do not need that level of consistency and degree of training (or do we?), but I feel we do need that level of community. How do we know a bard except by their performing? And is that the time to ask them about the worlds they create in verse? To share their songs with the new member who wants to become a bard? Again, No. But having a centralized way to collect and disperse songs and tales both new and old, to train bards up from a person who loves to sing but has a tin ear to a bard who knows what they can sing and add stories the populous wants to hear to his repertoire. Would thin not be a service we can perform for not only our audience? But also our Shire, Barony, Kingdom and the entire Knowne World? We could continue as we are knowing we are doing our own personal best, and everything will continue onward into the future, each of us driving on our own up the stream of time without anyone ever knowing we had been so close to what could have been a renaissance event for this community. I feel we will not do it at all without some form of organization, someone or some many who will step up to the wheel of the greater good and help direct us into the future. Ultimately, it is not any one of us that will make this possible, but every one of us. I know that some will prefer to be alone in their quest for what they perceive as the perfect art form for their performance style. And they are right to do so. But some, like myself, like to know they are a part of a greater thing, or a thing becoming greater with each breath. And we are right to do so. That is why there is no easy answer to this issue.

text: Rick Santorum: GOP Needs to Be 'Pro-Worker Party,' Can't Be Silent on Pro-Life Issues Print article Send a Tip by Tony Lee 31 May 2014 post a comment On Saturday at the Republican Leadership Conference in New Orleans, former Pennsylvania Senator and 2012 GOP presidential candidate Rick Santorum said one of the biggest problems the GOP faces is that their prominent donors try to push moderate and liberal policies that are out of touch with the party's base. That rift, Santorum said, does not exist on the left, and that is why they have been more successful in national elections. Appearing on Breitbart News Saturday with Breitbart News Executive Chairman and host Stephen K. Bannon, Santorum said Republicans and their friends who have emigrated away from the GOP are the ones "trying to dictate the future." He said these donors live in New York and Washington, D.C. and do not know that conservative values, even though they are under assault, are "alive and well." Santorum, who recently authored Blue Collar Conservatives, said that in addition to being a pro-growth party, the GOP also needed to be a "pro-worker party" that represents business owners and job holders. Santorum said it is a huge problem when the GOP's funders "are not conservative" while the base is decisively so. In contrast, he said liberals and all of their interest groups and donors are all on the same page when it comes to politics and liberal values. Santorum, who runs Patriot Voices and EchoLight Studios, which produces faith-based and family-friendly movies, said Republicans cannot be quiet on pro-life and pro-family issues on the national stage, especially when Democrats continue to shine a huge spotlight on them. He blasted the "experts" that told the last two failed GOP presidential nominees -- moderate establishment Republicans Mitt Romney and John McCain -- to surrender the playing field to the left on those issues. "Look how that worked out for us," Santorum said. "People care about life. People care about the family." Santorum said too often the message coming from establishment Republicans is that the GOP does not care about these issues. What's worse, according to Santorum, is that the Republican politicians seem like frauds when they are silent on pro-life issues that are firmly in the party's platform. "And who's going to vote for a fraud?" he asked.

Joal / META4 is a well-known Portuguese DJ and producer with one of the most exciting live act in recent years as proof of his solid work.Music cannibal, vinyl collector, constant sonority accumulator, sometimes melancholic and crazy thinker, are just some of the variables that generate his individual.Not wanting to converge in a specific genre of sounds, instead, he wants to be the synthesis of a continuous and restless contamination and commingling of various elements and sonority absorbed over the years.Basic elements from House and Techno are without doubt his most common ground to explore, although, continuous experimentation, openness to change and versatility are key words to define his work.His dedication gave him the opportunity to release on some of the most well known labels in the world like Minus, Witty Tunes, Bitten, as well as having frequent exposure on the Beatport top charts.In 2010 he become the A&R of Monog Records digital label www.monogrecords.com, whose Modus Operandi is to create a unique and familiar relationship with the Artists and their music. Thanks to the work it developed during its years of existence, Monog Records has been constantly supported and charted by artists like DJ Sneak, Barem, Slam, Loco Dice, Stacey Pullen, Figueroa, Maetrik and others.The moniker META4 was crystallized in 2013, in Berlin, being the result of a gradual change conceived after a long time reflection about himself and his music.

5 KASEY KAHNE, Chevrolet
Team: Hendrick Motorsports
WHERE HE STANDS: 11th, 20 points out of the top 10. Secured a spot in the Chase with his Atlanta win. Gained two spots last week.
RICHMOND RECORD: One win and seven top-10 finishes including four top-five's in 21 starts.
LOOKING AHEAD: Kahne hopes he can "build off" his Atlanta win as he heads to Richmond. "Hopefully, we can build some confidence, some momentum, and go into Richmond and even get better. We actually ran pretty well at Richmond earlier in the year, so that could be a good track for us this weekend."
LOOKING BACK: It was an emotional roller-coaster for Kahne Sunday night at Atlanta. After rallying late to take the lead, Kahne was within two laps of the win when a caution flag was waved for a collision between Kyle Busch and Martin Truex, Jr. With two drivers taking only two tires and two others beating him off pit road, Kahne was fifth on the first attempt at a green-white-checkered flag finish. A multi-car accident on the restart resulted in a second attempt at a green-white-checkered flag finish. Kahne was third on this restart and quickly moved by Denny Hamlin and pulled alongside Matt Kenseth. The two dueled for almost a lap before Kahne grabbed the lead and the win that earned him a spot in the Chase.
"Man, it took a lot (to get to victory lane)," said Kahne. "We were all over the place during the race but the guys stayed with me and worked hard. On those restarts, I didn't know what would happen because I had great restarts all night and I (normally) struggle with restarts a lot. That's big, because that is one of the things you have to be good at and it worked really well tonight. It's been kind of one thing after the other but we are in the Chase with my teammates. Glad we are in the Chase and we can race them now. I am really pumped to be here."
ETC.: Crew chief Kenny Francis didn't hide the fact "it's been a rough year for us. We have had a lot of good cars and just seems like nothing goes our way. We haven't got many breaks. You feel like you're got good equipment and you feel like you've been running good, just when things don't go your way, you lose some confidence and you get a little dejected. So, winning this race is such a dramatic fashion and getting in the Chase and all that, that is just a huge relief. And I think it's going to be a huge up lift for the whole team and for our whole shop."
