flat grill or skillet grill? - cast iron
I know tools have their own specific use.
But does the flat grill (griddle?) have any advantages over the skillet grill?
Assuming they're both the same size, does the flat grill do anything the skillet grill can't do?
Enlighten me :)
I have both in cast iron, I prefer the flat one for making steaks etc. as it gets a better seared crust. I use the grill pan to roast chickens and small cuts of meat, The grill ridges give it a nice lift and higher sides help with heat retention
I have gotten hell for this opinion but I do not particularly like these grill pans - I own several raw and enameled as shown I find little use for them - making grill marks is fun but I much prefer to use a regular cast iron skillet for cooking almost anything - If anything I like the aw cast iron griddles that are flat on one side and ribbed on the other so they are multitaskers at least like this one http://www.target.com/p/lodge-reversi...
I have owned a flat bare CI round griddle pan. Can't say i was a big fan, largely because it didn't get used often enough to develop a great seasoning layer. In fact, the foods I cooked in it ended up stripping off some of the seasoning as often as not. So that was a little frustrating. I've since abandoned it in favor of a similarly sized deBuyer Carbone crepe pan. It's essentially the same pan, but with enough differences to make it more desirable to me.
That's one of the reasons I've been increasingly drawn to the enameled pans you're showing, because there's no need to season them.
Then this afternoon, I got an email advert for this:
Now I'm even more intrigued, because I think the shape is better for the things I'd cook in it. This might get me to pull the trigger and try one.
re: DuffyH
interesting Duffy - that is basically identical to the small ribbed grill pan I have without the ribs - which IMO got in the way more than they helped. What gap do you see this filling that your carbon steel pans don't fill? Seems like it would be good for an stove to oven sear/bake for veg
re: JTPhilly
<What gap do you see this filling that your carbon steel pans don't fill?>
I see it aiding mostly in terms of shape. The square shape lends itself to things like asparagus and 4 burger patties, a pair of sandwiches, fish fillets, stuff like that. A lot of what I pan fry is better suited to a square pan.
I've still got a pair of 12" frypans, one a cheap (thin) stainless nonstick and one a Calphalon Tri-Ply. Neither is up to the quality of my other pans, whether the carbon steel or my Zwilling sauté pan. I've been keeping them around for items that don't fit in my smaller 10" round pans, which is all the things I mentioned above plus some, but I really don't like using them, mostly because they're just too big and not as even heating as my other pans. The large base may be the culprit, too big to get good heat spread from even my largest burner. Perhaps a square pan would better suit me. I'm not sure, but I do know it will better fit my big induction element.
I have both too, in bare cast iron. I have lots of ECI but don't see the point of it in a grill pan. I use my vintage Griswold round griddle almost every day. It really depends on how you cook though. Other than a quick panini I have no need for a grill in the house, we do that outside.
The flat grill or griddle is good for making pancakes and such. You can do it in a skillet too, of course, but cast iron holds and distributes the heat better, and the square shape also suits that purpose.
I thought grill pan was used when you are cooking something really fatty like burgers or when you want to cook meat and veg together and not have veg cooking in juices/fat.
re: Chemicalkinetics
Agree. 100% of our grilling is done outside.
re: INDIANRIVERFL
I... can't even imagine trying to cook eggs or pancakes in a ridged pan.
If I could have only one, it would be a flat one. The grill pan does have its uses (not just to put pretty grill marks on food), it elevates food and stops it from being boiled in its own fat/juice, this does actually give a noticeable difference in texture/taste for things such as sausages (which is what I use my grill pan for the most).
re: Foodenist
If there is any advantage to either, it would be minor. The plate version might make it easier to slip a spatula under your food, without walls to interfere. OTOH, Lodge, LC and Staub offer fitted panini lids for the skillets.
As I said, minor. The thing you want to focus on is ridge height. If the ridges aren't tall enough and you grill something fatty, like a burger, your food will fry in the pooled fat. And of course, you need to decide if you want it enameled or bare.
re: DuffyH
Thanks duffy!

Peter King (R-NY) said the House would probably not vote to give President Barack Obama authorization to use military force against Syria if the vote were held today. King said that if the "vote were today, it would probably be a no vote." He said he intends to vote "yes" as of now and said Obama has the constitutional power to strike Syria but had "no clue what's in his mind on this issue." King acknowledged it was going to be difficult to get the vote through Congress as opposition builds over the next nine days and slammed what he called the "isolationist" wing in the House. He said he felt bad Secretary of State John Kerry had to "defend the indefensible."


text: No Mo for Joe: VP Struggles to Attract 1K at CO Events Print article Send a Tip by Tony Lee 4 Nov 2012 post a comment Vice President Joe Biden on Saturday struggled to draw 1,000 people at two campaign events in Colorado, one of the most important swing states this election. Republicans in Colorado have said they have not seen this much enthusiasm for the top of a Republican ticket in a decade, which is a contrast from Democrats, who are seeing a diminished level of enthusiasm from 2008. At an event in Englewood, Colorado, Biden's crowd "fell just short of a thousand people"--while an event with Romney drew 18,000--and another Biden event drew 1,200 in Pueblo, Colorado. Obama won Colorado by nearly ten points in 2008, but Democrats are trailing Republicans in the early vote and Obama is trailing among independents, which means momentum is on Romney's side heading into Election Day.

Carbo not proud of altered states
A Red Sox hero shares his emotional story of addiction, loss and renewal
In the hours before Cincinnati and Boston took the field for Game 7 of the 1975 World Series at Fenway Park, Bernie Carbo says he outdid himself, exceeding his regular routine of incessant drug and alcohol use.
"I was totally wasted when I went to the ballpark," Carbo says. "I would say I was at my worst."
The night before, Carbo had become an instant and enduring hero for Red Sox Nation -- hitting a game-tying, three-run home run with two outs in the eighth inning to set the Fenway stage for Carlton Fisk's 12th-inning leadoff shot that hit the foul pole and gave Boston a 7-6 victory over Cincinnati in Game 6. It was the greatest pinch-hit home run in Red Sox World Series history, yet Carbo says he couldn't savor the signature moment of his 12-year major league career because getting high was what his life had become all about.
"I was taking mescaline. I was taking cocaine, crystal meth, smoking dope and taking pills and drinking," Carbo says.
In the hours after the clubhouse celebration of Game 6, Carbo says, "I was very depressed."
The next day, for Game 7, Carbo, then a 28-year-old outfielder, expected to be on the bench again until the late innings. After all, he was a left-handed-hitting part-timer and the Reds were scheduled to start the accomplished lefty pitcher Don Gullett. While shagging fly balls in the outfield before the game, Carbo received a jolt.
"I went to catch a fly ball and it hit my chest and went to the ground," Carbo recalls. "I thought, 'Maybe nobody saw this.' Well, [Red Sox center fielder] Freddie Lynn came over and he said, 'You know what? I saw the ball hit you in your chest.' I went, 'Oh, wow.'"
According to Carbo, the conversation with his fellow outfielder then shifted from Carbo's dropped fly to Lynn dropping a bomb.
"'The bad thing about it,' [Lynn] says, 'is you're playing,'" Carbo recalls. "I said, 'Don't play games with me -- Don Gullett's pitching. It's a left-hander, I haven't played all year against a left-hander.'"
"I'll be all right, I'll be all right," Carbo remembers thinking to himself as he dismissed the news from Lynn. "I get to the seventh inning, I'll be ready to pinch hit."
Lynn, who was a rookie at the time, says much of the Series was a blur to him and he doesn't remember seeing a ball hit Carbo in the chest. He also says he was unaware of the "drug stuff with Bernie," adding, "obviously, he hid it well from people around him."
Trying to get ready
A day after shining in the clutch in Game 6, Carbo says he thought he had everything figured out precisely for the night of Game 7.
"I was thinking, 'Game starts at 7, I'll pinch hit around 9:30, 10, maybe if the game gets a few runs here and there, I'll be fine -- cup of coffee, I'll be ready to go.'"
When another teammate, pitcher Reggie Cleveland, came over and told Carbo he was to start and bat leadoff, Carbo says he thought it was all a practical joke. But when a third player mentioned the starting assignment, Carbo decided he had to see for himself, so he went to check out manager Darrell Johnson's lineup card posted in the dugout.
Early in the Series, Carbo had voiced a desire to start. But for Johnson to now turn to his Game 6 savior for his first start of the Series, with the season and championship on the line, was unfathomable, Carbo says. It was beyond even the wildest of thoughts that usually entered Carbo's mind, until he reached the dugout.
Once there, in front of the lineup card with his name written in the leadoff spot, seeing was not only believing, it was panic-inducing. "I knew in that seventh game of the World Series, I'm in trouble right now," Carbo says. "I couldn't play right now. There's no way I could go to the plate and hit and play, because I was too stoned."
Carbo's condition, he says, called for accelerated efforts to become game-ready.
"I went and took more Dexedrines [stimulants] and ran in the outfield, worked up a sweat and then I went in and took a cold shower and got ready," says Carbo. "Next thing I know the game's starting and I'm facing Don Gullett."
In the field and on the bases
Carbo, who had pinch-hit homers in Game 3 and Game 6, had no opportunities in left field during a 1-2-3 top of the first inning.
The Hernandez Story
He was a celebrated hair salon operator in his native Michigan, five years after he last played in the major leagues and 10 years after his home run in Game 6 of the 1975 World Series. Bernie Carbo had even been featured in People magazine.
But on Sept. 6, 1985, Carbo says, he was in his salon when a news report shattered any secrecy about his use of illegal drugs and altered his family life forever. That day in Pittsburgh, former Cardinals teammate Keith Hernandez (pictured above) testified in a federal trial about drugs in baseball that Carbo had introduced him to cocaine.
"I was cutting my dad's hair and my mother was in the next chair getting her hair done," Carbo says. "I had the TV on and my dad just said, 'Oh no!' He just took the cape off and walked out of my salon and my mom started crying."
Carbo says Hernandez's revelation devastated his parents, cost him a lot of his business and subjected his children to cruelty at school. In an interview with Mark Schwarz of "Outside the Lines," Carbo recalls pursuing drastic action.
"How did you feel about Keith Hernandez when you heard that?" Schwarz asked.
Carbo: "The truth? I knew some people and I had $2,000 and I asked them to break his arms."
Schwarz: "You really did want to send someone over to break his arms?"
Carbo: "Yeah! I had $2,000 and when I went to the individual to have it done, he said, 'We'll do it in two or three years, if you want it done, but we're not going to do it today, Bernie. If we went and broke his legs today or broke his arms, you don't think they would understand that YOU are the one that had it done?'"
Through a spokesman, Hernandez, now a TV analyst for the New York Mets, declined to comment for this report.
Carbo says he never sought any further measures against Hernandez and has never seen him in the quarter-century since the testimony. And he says he eventually concluded, following the 1989 suicide of his mother and the death of his father the same year, that he, not Hernandez, was to blame for his personal suffering.
"If I was to be with Keith Hernandez today," Carbo says, "I would tell Keith Hernandez, 'I'm sorry -- I'm sorry that I introduced you to a drug and I'm sorry that I was your problem,' and I would tell him that I love him and I don't have any problems with him today."
Leading off in the bottom of the first, he worked the count against Gullett to 3-and-2.
"I hit a fastball better than the first two home runs I hit and I thought that was a home run," Carbo says. "When I hit it, my eyes almost popped out of my head -- man, I crushed that ball.
"As I started rounding first, I realized the wind was blowing in, and it [the ball] came off the wall for a double."
After narrowly missing his third home run of the Series, Carbo was on second base when Boston's No. 2 hitter, Denny Doyle, followed with a fly ball to right field that was caught by the Reds' Ken Griffey.
"I went halfway," Carbo says. "And [third-base coach Don] Zimmer was saying, 'Tag up! Tag up! Tag up!' And I thought, 'Man, if I tag up, he's going to throw me out at third base,' and I didn't tag up and he threw the ball away."
Carbo remained at second as Griffey's throw trickled free. Hall of Famer Carl Yastrzemski's ground ball to the right side of the infield might have scored Carbo had he been at third base. When Fisk, another Hall of Famer, made the third out, Carbo was stranded and the Red Sox had come up empty.
Zimmer says he doesn't recall Carbo disregarding his pleas to tag up. A half-inning later, Carbo deftly played a ball in deep left field and gunned down the Reds' George Foster, who was trying for a double.
When Carbo was asked what he remembers of his defense that night, he replied, "Did I have any balls hit to me in Game 7?"
Other memories from Game 6
Now 62, Carbo also says he has no recollection of his second at-bat the previous night, after staying in the game following his pinch-hit home run. He blacked out about that, he says, and didn't realize he had struck out until he purchased a video of Game 6.
Rawly Eastwick, the Reds' relief pitcher who allowed Carbo's eighth-inning homer in Game 6, says he has a hard time believing a player as impaired as Carbo claims to have been, could function and succeed as Carbo did.
Carbo's response? "I did. I functioned that way my whole life for 28 years."
Of course, Carbo's role in Game 6 was strictly in the late innings, late into the night -- there was no surprise starting assignment.
In Game 7, the ball hit by Foster in the second inning was his only outfield chance before he was replaced for defensive purposes by Rick Miller in the seventh, a move Carbo says he was glad to see. "I don't think I could've finished the game," he says.
On offense, Carbo walked and scored in the third inning and grounded out in the fourth in his two at-bats after his double to lead off the first.
Carbo, who says he's been clean and sober for 16 years, rues not heeding Zimmer's hollers to tag up on Doyle's fly ball after the double. He says he should've been in position to score when Yastrzemski grounded out.
Boston ended up losing the game 4-3 and the Series by the same count, and Carbo says his third-base coach could have called him out after the loss. "One of the things I appreciated and loved about Don Zimmer -- he never spoke about that," Carbo says. "He didn't say, 'Hey, I told Bernie Carbo to tag up in the first inning, we score a run, we're still playing.'"
"I don't look at that run costing us a World Series," says a smiling Carbo. "Not until you start talking to me about it."
Lynn and Zimmer perspectives
Lynn expressed surprise at hearing how heavily into drugs Carbo was. But Lynn says many ballplayers -- though he wasn't one of them -- did drugs during the '70s, as it was a big part of the era's culture.
"It must have been hell for him, to fight demons while doing what he loved," Lynn said. "There is no reason for him to lie about it."
Lynn says Carbo had "all the tools" as a player, and he wonders what his ex-teammate would've achieved if he hadn't done drugs. He also says Carbo was invariably upbeat.
"I saw him at a reunion a few years ago and he seemed like Bernie," says Lynn, adding that he's glad that Carbo got help and seems to have his life together now.
Zimmer had managed Carbo in the Reds' minor league system -- Cincinnati had drafted Carbo in the first round in 1965, a round ahead of Hall of Famer Johnny Bench. When Zimmer became a coach for the Red Sox, he says, he lobbied the team's general manager to acquire Carbo from St. Louis, in part because he considered his opposite-field power well-suited for Fenway Park's dimensions.
"He was like a son to me," Zimmer says of Carbo. And although Zimmer says he was too naive about drugs to have been certain Carbo was using them, he says it was apparent that Carbo had "problems." In retrospect, Zimmer says, there was an incident that was indicative.
During a spring training in Winter Haven, Fla., Zimmer says, he "just vaguely remembers" a Red Sox employee -- probably the traveling secretary -- having to go to where Carbo was staying, when Carbo failed to show up. Zimmer recalls hearing that the staffer "knocked on the door where he [Carbo] lived and they can see or smell a glaze of what he was doing. I just remember that somebody went to his apartment and it was a total mess. What could've been done, I don't know."
Carbo confirms the story and says it was probably in 1976, when he got to Winter Haven nearly two weeks before training camp, but still didn't report on time. "I just hibernated," Carbo says, "I didn't even realize spring training was going."
Boston's traveling secretary came to his hotel room and, indeed, found a mess, Carbo says, because Carbo never left the room and never had the housekeeper clean it. He says there was probably the scent of marijuana. After being instructed to join his teammates, Carbo says he finally did.
A year later, Carbo says, Zimmer told him, "I think you're smoking that 'silly stuff' [marijuana] and I wish you'd stop it and maybe have a beer or something."
By that time, according to Carbo, about 80 percent of his teammates were aware he was using drugs. As for Zimmer, Carbo says, "When somebody loves you, like Don loved me and wanted the best for me, I don't think he wanted to believe it."
"I wish I hadn't failed Don Zimmer twice," Carbo says. "I wish I would've been more like a son to him where he could say I was a good man."
After Zimmer became Red Sox manager, he successfully advocated for Carbo's reacquisition from Milwaukee. But in 1978, Carbo's chronic lateness and failure to play to his capability became too much to handle. "I had to get rid of him," Zimmer says, "and it broke my heart."
"When I run him out of there, I didn't know he was on drugs," says Zimmer. "He was late to the park and he was there, but he wasn't 'there.'" Zimmer also says, "Bernie would never try to hurt anybody, he was never malicious. He was a great kid."
Carbo says Zimmer would often ask him if he was OK and Carbo would always reply that he was, no matter the truth. "Sometimes," Carbo says, "when he didn't play me, he didn't want me to make a fool of myself."
When Zimmer was told that Carbo had described being in solitude and in tears, hours after his momentous Game 6 home run, Zimmer said, "It's very sad, but I would've thought that we were close enough that if he were alone, he would've called me," adding that he would've come to console Carbo.
'I just chose to destroy myself'
In more than a thousand big league games, Carbo says, he played sober only once. He recalls going 2-for-4 during that game, but says he was unable to play drug-free ever again. The itinerant former Sporting News Rookie of the Year played for six different teams, never lasting three straight full seasons with any of them. He finished with a .264 batting average and 96 home runs.
"I take no pride in it at all," Carbo says of playing a career in altered states. "I just chose to destroy myself."
Many of his problems, Carbo says, dated back to childhood and the trauma of being molested by a cousin and being warned to keep it a secret. And he says his father, who himself had aspired to reach the major leagues, was incapable of providing him much-needed encouragement and support. Carbo says he got into frequent fights and only years later realized he had deep-rooted difficulties dealing with men who were in authority and handling being told what to do.
He says he experimented with drugs as a teenager in the '60s and then, early in his major league career, became hooked.
Carbo is now a youth hitting instructor outside of Mobile, Ala., and through his Diamond Club Ministry, he travels to churches, schools, Boys' and Girls' Clubs and prisons speaking about faith, baseball and the dangers of substance abuse. He also runs a fantasy camp.
Regardless of Carbo's checkered tours of duty with the team and his revelations of substance abuse, Zimmer says Boston fans always revel in the memory of that Game 6 home run and revere the man who hit it. "If you took 10 guys in Red Sox history, for fan reaction," Zimmer says, "Carbo would still be in the top 10."
Looking back to that Game 7, Carbo says he has a big regret.
"I wish I wouldn't have been so stoned."

The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety released the results of its most recent crash tests on Thursday.
"There were three vehicles that in those four tests racked up damage that would cost a total of around $4000 to fix," said David Zuby, Senior Vice President for Vehicle Research.
The the cheapest total repair costs, given to the Mitsubishi Galant, somewhere in the middle was the Nissan Altima and the most expensive the Nissan Maxima.
The IIHS hopes that by publishing these results they will help the safety of drivers and passengers.
"We hope to get the vehicle manufacturer to think a little bit more about how they design bumpers and hopefully, in the future bumpers will be designed in ways that vehicles sustain less expensive damage in these very common low speed crashes," said Zuby.
The IIHS says that bumper damage is so expensive because a lot of the time if your bumper isn't strong enough, your hood, grill, fenders and everything else behind the grill can get damaged, which is all more expensive to replace than the bumper system its self.

November 28, 2014
CHICAGO (AP) - Jim Parque, a former pitcher for the White Sox and Tampa Bay, says he used human growth hormone "about six times" after he was cut by Chicago in 2002 and before he tried a comeback with the Rays the following season.
Parque made his confession in a lengthy, first-person account printed Thursday in the Chicago Sun-Times. He says he tried HGH in a bid to recover from a shoulder injury that he blames for derailing his career.
"It never gave me more strength or bulked me up, but it provided quicker recoveries," Parque wrote. "I began to throw harder because my shoulder felt no pain. I was able to withstand more throwing, creating a work environment that I had not experienced in two years."
Parque made five starts for Tampa Bay in 2003, compiling an 11.94 ERA. He never pitched again in the majors. In 2007, he was named as a drug user in the Mitchell Report.

FrugalBrutal ( 455 ) Feb. 14, 2013 at 8:29am
Oh, man! Wish this were an N9.
getting a used one for 150 is pretty rare too. Most people are still looking for 200 on CL. Plus these are brand new and already unlocked. This is a solid phone design wise but windows is too locked down for me. Must resist temptation. I do really want one though.

bought this one for $160 from secondipity few months back
rabydanimal ( 46 ) Feb. 14, 2013 at 8:54am
IMO avoid Win Phone 7 devices like the plague. It's a dead platform with very few apps people are used to having on smart phones. I wouldn't pay $100 for this phone.

The Office of Management and Budget's 2010 decision to halt 30 financial management projects had little impact on the cost and completion time of many programs, but agencies saw other shortcomings from the freeze, according to the Government Accountability Office.
GAO found that most agencies reported no change or that they did not know how the long-term project cost or completion time would change as an outcome of the actions, decisions and recommendations related to OMB's June 28, 2010 memorandum.
The memo laid out governmentwide policies associated with financial system overhauls, requiring agencies to come up with plans on how to make financial system modernizations more cost-efficient. The memo also directed agencies to find ways to better align projects with high-priority business needs as well as enhance their financial systems. While they were conducting the reviews, the agencies were to enter into no new contracts or task orders, under the memo's terms.
Despite lack of adverse effect on cost and timelines, agencies experienced other drawbacks of the freeze. Several agencies reported that their new focus on adopting more critical business needs delayed their work to improve accounting and reporting functions. One agency, for example, found that OMB disapproved its project to upgrade its accounting software to a current version, which hampered the agency's ability to keep its systems secure and implement new technology.
Agencies also found that standardization of internal processes or data and funding delays to be particularly challenging. Twelve of 22 agencies said standardization of internal processes or data is a main or moderate roadblock. Nine agencies cited funding delays as a significant or moderate challenge. One agency reported that continuing delays make planning difficult as the program manager is unable to begin new projects until funding status has been set.

Brown Deer has hired Robert C. Willis, a law enforcement instructor, trainer and consultant, to review the Police Department's numerous interactions with Zina and Radcliffe Haughton, Village Manager Russell Van Gompel announced in a news release today.
Radcliffe killed his estranged wife, Zina, and two other women, and injured four more at the Azana Salon and Spa in Brookfield on Oct. 21 before taking his own life.
The Brown Deer Police Department has since come under scrutiny for failing to arrest Radcliffe after a number of domestic abuse incidents. An Oct. 30 letter signed by 12 Wisconsin lawmakers calls for an external audit of the Brown Deer Police Department's interactions with the Haughtons.
"In the interest of getting an unbiased evaluation of the facts and law enforcement standards relevant to the Village of Brown Deer Police Department's contacts with the Haughtons, we have hired Wisconsin Law Enforcement Instructor Robert C. Willis to conduct an independent review of all contacts with the Haughtons", Van Gompel said in the release. "We have instructed Mr. Willis that he has no restraints on the scope or depth of his review."
Willis has served as a patrol officer, SWAT team member, and in a number of training positions. He is currently a part-time patrol officer in Milwaukee County, is a Deputy Sheriff in Brown County, and works as a full-time instructor and trainer at the Northeast Wisconsin Technical College Tactical Training Complex.
Willis' report will be made public at the conclusion of his review.

Time to start thinking about taxes approaching
It's that time of year when people start receiving their W-2 forms and other tax information.
Last year's government shutdown will affect this year's return processing date. The IRS won't start processing returns until January 31st, two weeks later than normal.
Experts say it's important to start gathering all of your documents now so they are ready when you want to file. They also encourage you to go through the filing process now if you would like to file the finished product right away on the 31st.
If you own a business or you think you're going to owe money, it might not be a good idea to wait until April. "Sometimes it's nice to get it all together while last year is still kind of fresh in your mind and while those documents are kind of readily available," said Tammy Becker of Becker Tax & Bookkeeping.
The deadline to file your taxes this year is April 15th.

Best one I've found is the Dude - free, and extremely customisable. I have it set up with a status screen on our office wall, a map of the site with coloured areas on the Intranet homepage, and a traffic-light system on the website (so I can check from home!). Also I get emails and pager messages from it when equipment statuses change. I am happy to send you example screenshots if that would be useful, along with info as to how I've configured it.
I've also added Spotlight on Windows (also free) with this for added server monitoring info.
Hope this helps!

The weather forecast for this Super Bowl Week:Cold and wintry, with a 100 percent chance of wisecracks.For the NFL, you see, this was always destined to be a self-fulfilling prophecy. Like the groundhog in Punxsutawney that manages to always see his shadow.From the first time that it announced that it had awarded Super Bowl XLVIII to MetLife Stadium in the New Jersey Meadowlands, the NFL has tried to act as if — wink, wink — it was in on the joke.The host committee's official logo, for example, prominently bears the image of a snowflake.More recently, commissioner Roger Goodell announced that he planned to view the game not while sitting on his customary ermine throne, but rather outside amongst the winter-swept commoners.Cold? What cold?, the NFL seems to be telling us, teasingly.In the latest forecast by the Weather Channel, as it turns out, the Jersey temperature at Super Bowl kickoff is expected to be around 37 degrees with a 30 percent chance of showers. Hardly Iditarod-like conditions. Which means that despite a bone-chilling, week-long run-up to the big game, the airports likely will remain open, the shuttle buses should run on time and the assembled media probably won't get to gleefully report on Winter Storm Roger or how the latest Polar Vortex ruined Goodell's corporate party.Oh, we'll still complain. It's what we do.But if the forecasters are correct, Super Bowl history won't be made this week.The coldest Super Bowl on record? That would be the notorious 1982 game, Super Bowl XVI, where it was 16 degrees in Pontiac, Mich.Situated 31 miles north of Detroit, the Pontiac Silverdome was tedious to commute to even on the fairest of Sundays. Add in the multi-escorted arrival of then-Vice-President George H. W. Bush, which shut down surrounding highways, and pregame traffic came to a complete halt.I was in a caravan of media buses that were still outside of the Silverdome's parking lot perimeter when our driver suddenly stopped and threw up his hands. He eased open the door of the bus, pointed to the distant stadium and apologized.The Silverdome lot was still glazed over from a Friday night ice storm. All I remember about the half-mile trek is hearing my media colleagues behind me, tumbling to the frozen asphalt with their computer terminals spinning away from them.The NFL, alerted to our dilemma, greeted us at the stadium door with blankets and hot chocolate.I have only a vague recollection of the game.Super Bowl IX, played outdoors at Tulane Stadium in New Orleans because the Superdome wasn't finished, saw temperatures in the raw and dank 30s.More fresh in Super Bowl memories, however, is the week of Super Bowl XLV, when North Texas was hit with 3.7 inches of snow and ice.The Super Bowl media howled. What do you mean you don't have any snowplows, they asked?Alas, we're a community of drivers, not taxi riders or subway commuters. Unlike here, where the teams, fans and media were scattered across Tarrant and Dallas counties, most of the Super Bowl media this week will be housed in Manhattan. Taxis will be plentiful when foul weather arrives.Just bundle up, the NFL seems to be telling visitors. There's going to be plenty of hot chocolate to go around.The first New York-New Jersey Super Bowl was always destined to be cold and wintry. The NFL — wink, wink — has been in on the joke from the start.That host committee logo with the snowflake? It depicts one other prominent local landmark:New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie's current nemesis, the George Washington Bridge.

About Mike Knowles
Grew up in Wales near Snowdonia. Hence the name for the chalet. Now live in London, but wish I was in the mountains.
Mike Knowles purchased this chalet in 2005
Why Mike Knowles chose Preyerand
I loved the location, so near the piste and large enough to have everyone around. Also it was a bit of a wreck when I bought it and I have enjoyed turning it into something special.
Guestbook comments from the owner
Dear M. Knowles,
We would like to send you a few words after the splendid week we have passed in Les Menuires.
We had a warm welcome by Kris and Kirsten, the chalet was 'fully' equipped and clean, the rooms were fine, there was enough hot water when taking showers, the balcony was sunny and offers a great view … we enjoyed it very much. If we have to say something negative, the only thing I can come up with is the fact that the pan in the kitchen were already very 'used'.
Thank you for the offering of your chalet and maybe we will be back next year.
Yours sincerely,
Marleen and Guy and family and friends

Champions League Group Stage
Old Trafford, 19 October 1994
Hughes 20, Sharpe 80
Romario 34, Bakero 50
United: Schmeichel; Parker, Pallister, May (Bruce 69), Irwin; Kanchelskis, Butt (Scholes 67), Ince, Keane, Sharpe; Hughes.
Barcelona: Busquets; Luis (Eusebio 45), Koeman, Abelardo; Guardiola, Nadal, Bakero, Sergi; Stoichkov, Romario, Beguiristain (Jordi 67).
Old Trafford buzzed with anticipation at the return of a true European giant – and the first-ever Champions League game between these two sides didn't disappoint…
In a nutshell: The taste of things to come in Europe for Sir Alex's men. United hammered Barça early and took a deserved lead when former Blaugranes boy Mark Hughes powered home a header from Lee Sharpe's inviting cross. But back came Barcelona and hit United with two sucker punches either side of the break through Romario and Jose Bakero. Not to be deterred, the Reds brought on Paul Scholes for his European debut, poured forward and Sharpe rescued a point with an impish backheel 10 minutes from time.
Star man: Fleet-footed Sharpe was outstanding all night, delivering the kind of classic left-wing display that made him a darling of the Stretford End. Taking full advantage of an injury to Ryan Giggs, he ran Barcelona's experienced European campaigners ragged – in particular Luis, who was withdrawn at half-time.
Key moment: Sharpe's skilfully flicked equaliser, which he considers his favourite Reds goal, was richly deserved and maintained United's unbeaten European record at home. "Like Denis Law in his pomp", was how The Independent's Glenn Moore

Any Fun Tiki Restaurants?
I'm looking for a FUN tiki/Polynesian dinner place for a friend's 40th birthday. I had hoped for a Polynesia dinner & dance show, but it looks like we don't have any in the SF area (I can't find anything recent about the "Taste of Aloha" supper & dance show in SOMA).
Any suggestions for a great tiki restaurant, other than Trader Vic's in Emeryville? Any other fun dining options? I also considered the Dark Dining deal, but scheduling is an issue.
re: Scott M
Yeah, Tonga Room is everything but fun. For example, it IS a great way to spend $8 on a bottle of beer and $24 on a $6 plate of chow mein from next door, in a tired old gimmicky room.
These numbers are not exaggerated for entertainment purposes.
re: orezscu
Uh, yes they are....
The Tonga Room in the Fairmont Hotel in San Francisco, sounds exactly what you are looking for. There are shows on a floating tiki hut and rainstorms on the hour over a center pool. It is really old school kitch. Really fun and good food.
The Tonga Room & Hurricane Bar
The Tonga Room offers a tropical and festive atmosphere with live entertainment, dancing and a rain storm. The Tonga Room serves exceptional Pacific Rim Asian Cuisine in a tropical setting. It is the perfect escape after a busy day of meetings or shopping along Union Square. Be sure to try the Mai Tai, regularly recognized as the City's best!
Hours Of Operation:
The Hurricane Bar
Sunday through Thursday: 5:00 p.m. to 11:45 p.m.
Friday and Saturday: 5:00 p.m. to 12:45 a.m.
Tonga's Award Winning Happy Hour
Monday to Friday: 5:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m.
The Happy Hour includes an extensive buffet of Pacific Rim delicacies with items such as spare ribs, vegetable chow mein, pork buns, pot stickers, chicken drummettes, cheese, fresh fruits and crudités. The all-you-can-eat buffet is a 'steal' at only $9.50 per person with a one drink minimum. To complement this feast fit for kings and queens, the tropical restaurant and bar serves tantalizing cocktails at Happy Hour prices.
As you marvel at the exciting decor, be sure to hold on to your drink during the surprise thunder and lightning.
The Tonga Room Restaurant:
(featuring Pacific Rim cuisine)
Sunday to Thursday: 6:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m.
Friday & Saturday: 6:00 p.m to 11:00 p.m.
Dress Code:
Reservations for dinner are recommended. Please call the Tonga directly at 1 (415) 772-5278, or reserve via the Internet.
re: beewings
I have fond memories of the Tonga Room. When we were growing up, a trip to San Francisco was always made more special seeing it rain into the Tonga Room lagoon.
I went here 10 years ago for dinner. Entrees were $13 each for not that great Chinese food; plus they tacked on $3 per person because of the band, and cokes were $3.
Four years later we headed back for the happy hour buffet. Back then it was $6 per person with a one drink minimum (cheapest drink then was $5). We felt like the buffet was the superior deal with dim sum, Chinese American standbys, and things like teriyaki chicken wings. The food was still mediocre, but the decor was fun as always.
re: beewings
Hey, do they still play the theme from Hawaii Five-0 when the band comes floating out? Last time I was there was maybe 15 years ago...sounds like the place hasn't changed! Good place to get some slow dance acrtion, every 3rd song was a slow one! gotta go back for old times sake.
re: beewings
Some of us (tiki aficionados, that is) do not find tiki to be cheesy, kitsch, or tacky -- I think it's important to realize that. I find the decor and design of most of these places to be splendid and gorgeous. I feel at home in this environment.
San Francisco's own Otto von Stroheim is one of the world's experts on the history of tiki/Polynesiana, and he puts things much better than I can.
That said, I really like the Trader Vic's in Emeryville for dining and drinks both, and Tonga Room for drinks only. I wish they had a much, much better band at Tonga Room. The design of the SF Trader Vic's is really unsuccessful for me. Too bright, not enough atmosphere. I prefer an undersea-grotto-like atmosphere.
Forbidden Island in Alameda is supposed to be fantastic.
Well, just as a completely different suggestion (ie. not Tiki). Maybe something like belly dancing at El Mansour might work for the birthday. I haven't been personally but just thought I would throw the idea out there and see what others had to say about any experiences they may have had.
I'd second the Tonga Room for happy hour and drinks. It's about as Tiki kitsch as it gets w/o going down stream. However if you want Hawaiian, I'd check out Hukilau (Geary/Masonic) owned by some Bruddahs from Hawaii. Fun place, live music on fridayweekends but no hula show. The SF location is basically a bar with about 15 tables for food. There's also Forbidden Island Tiki Lounge in Alameda. I wouldn't make a trip if you're coming from SF.
Thanks all. I'm quite familiar with the Tonga Room, but it slipped my mind. I love it's cheesiness and I think the happy hour is a great deal. That's a strong possibility. I really like the Hukilau and go there a bunch, but it's not quite what I'm looking for for this event. Bellydancing is a possibility. Al Masri - the Egyptian place on Balboa -has great Egyptian style bellydancing. I just wish there was a good "luau" type of place with a show around here. I have fond memories of going to some dinner show in Miami as a child. C'est la vie.
re: kresge86
Temple Bar on University in Berkeley is pretty Hawaiian. It has a fairly small stage, in fact the entire place is rather small and may not be as upscale as you are looking for, but I've heard the music there and it seemed authentic to me. The food is pretty good, too. Better than the Tonga Room. The decor is fun and very Tiki. It might be a great place for a birthday party, depending on what you're looking for. Very nice people.
re: Glencora
Temple Bar is cozy, friendly, and run by actual Hawiians but they seem to only
be open on the rare occasions when Kaluannuunohonionio rolls over in his
watery grave. Which is to say I went there three years ago and even though I
pass by there almost daily and want to go again, they're always closed.
Website says they're open pretty normal hours, but I'd call first:
re: Chuckles the Clone
They do private parties a lot. Calling ahead is a good idea.
re: kresge86
You might check the site tiki central for more info ... if any.
Another idea is to go down to the Flower Market in San Francisco. A few of the flower vendors are Hawaiian and post about events like local luaus. don't remember which vendor and it was quite a while ago that I saw this. I just came back from Hawaii and had trouble losing the Aloaha Spirit and was buying Hawaiian flowers when I noticed the postings ... BTW, this was when the first Bush was president ... so don't know if those vendors are still there. They were toward the end where you pay.
If you want high quality drinks go to Forbidden Island. Excellent drinks, excellent staff and the decor is top notch.
The Hawaiian store in Japantown is opening up a dining place and where looking for dancers. I think it is called Honu but I don't think it is open yet.
Forbidden Island
1304 Lincoln Ave, Alameda, CA
re: alohatiki
Thanks alohatiki! I'll have to keep an eye out for Honu, as I love Hawaiian/Polynesian food, music and hula.
I also like the Conga Lounge in Oakland. It's great for drinks, but a little cramped for dinner. I went to Forbidden Island a year or two ago when they had a big tiki sale, but I've yet to try it for drinks. Definitely cool decor. Perhaps we'll just hit up Tucker's Ice Cream with the kiddies, and then head over to Forbidden Island for the adults' only portion of the birthday celebration.
re: kresge86
That's a great idea! Tucker's makes delicious ice cream and Forbidden Island makes wonderful drinks. Not much food to speak of, but the sweet potato fries were pretty good. BTW, if you're going on a Friday or Saturday, get there early as it can get crowded fairly quickly. My girlfriends and I have started a birthday tradition of drinks at Forbidden Island and I love that the staff is willing to tweak the drinks to your liking. Also, the menu has little bottles on it to indicate how boozey drinks are. Just be aware that the drinks ain't cheap (I think my favorite is $9) but some of us only need one as they can be rather large. Oh, and they have about 25 different varieties of rum you can try as well. Happy Birthday and have a great time in Tikiland!

For 200 dollars I was able to take a great 8/10 picture with Hulk and get a signed item. He was personable and it was overall a good experience. I'm very happy I went!

The ERM: my part in its downfall
Exactly 20 years ago today, I was standing outside the Royal Crescent Hotel in Bath brandishing a placard with the words 'ERM: Extending Recession Misery'.
The EU's finance ministers were holding an emergency summit on the currency crisis in that gorgeous honey-coloured city (Britain happened to occupy the EU presidency at the time). In an eerie foreshadowing of our present discontents, the other member states were pleading with Germany to loosen its monetary policy. The world's media were present.
The finance ministers were due to hold a photo-opportunity with John Wood's magnificent terrace as a backdrop and, sensing an opportunity, I arranged for members of the Oxford Campaign for an Independent Britain to demonstrate on the pavement next to them. The assembled cameramen were delighted to find something other than a line of men in grey suits on which to train their lenses. We gave dozens of interviews, telling Europeans, in their own tongues, that Britain's membership of the ERM was in its final days (British Eurosceptics, as I've remarked before, tend to me more polyglot than 'philes). I particularly remember one pretty and sweet-natured languages undergraduate at Somerville assuring French and German television viewers that John Major couldn't hold out any longer against his own public.
That weekend, footage of our protest led news bulletins all over Europe. Investors saw images of, as it seemed, a spontaneous British uprising against the ERM. On the Monday morning, sterling came under unprecedented pressure and, by the Wednesday, we were out of the system. Inflation, interest rates and unemployment dropped almost overnight, and Britain embarked on the longest period of continuous growth in modern history. It took the dogged persistence of Gordon Brown to mess things up again.
Oddly enough, the people who got it right over the ERM – Margaret Thatcher, Alan Walters, Nick Ridley, Michael Spicer, John Redwood – were never forgiven. They – we – are still treated as lunatics, while those who got it wrong are deferred to as experts. The debate turned out to be more or less uncoupled from the facts. Support for the ERM was, as support for the EU is, a way to advertise to the world that you are a jolly civilised person. The economic realities never really signified which is why, 20 years on, Europe is back in the same mess. Oh, and the sweet-natured languages undergraduate from Somerville? Reader, I married her.
