FCC questions Google Voice's expensive call blocker
The US Federal Communications Commission wants Google to explain how its voice service application blocks costly calls to rural areas. The commission sent a letter to the Mountain View company on Friday, asking for details by October 28 on its much-discussed Google Voice web application. The query comes two weeks after telecom …
Obvious solution...
Google Voice already has the facilities in place for charging for calls (they provide "cheap" rather than "free" international calls): just pass these charges straight through, with a notification message beforehand telling you that ScamCo is charging you $1/minute to connect the call.
As long as the FCC doesn't require that long-distance companies charge the same price for these premium-rate calls as for regular calls (which would be truly insane), this neatly gets around the legal problem with "blocking" access, as well as getting some public awareness of this little scam, without leaving Google out of pocket.
It's about time someone held Googles goolies to the fire.
where are the GV users?
Are there any GV users in those 'high interconnect fee' rural areas? If so, can anyone on GV call them?
Looks like a cunning plan
Google have hatched a plan so cunning you could pin a tail on it and call it a weasel.
5 Zimbabwean Dollars says that the FCC will do squat.
RIP "Do no evil" Google then.
This, and other articles, miss the salient point
The issue is that the local telcos are gaming the system.
If ONLY calls to local people in the boondocks were going on this wouldn't be an issue. The issue arises because there is an entire class of business built on living off "termination fees", those charges the long-distance companies pay to subsidize the local telcos.
Except they're not subsiding local telcos anymore, they're the profit mechanism for "free teleconferencing", the odd call center, and "free" sex chat lines, among other things.
Ever wonder why the number you call for your "free teleconferencing" is in Iowa or Minnesota? That's because your long-distance carrier is paying some telco for the privilege of terminating your call there. Note that even though in 99.99% of the time NOBODY on that conference call is in Iowa, there is a bunch of servers in some closet where all the long-distance calls terminate, and the telco and the free-conference provider split the (in my mind) ill-gotten gains.
Why should AT&T, or Google for that matter, subsidize YOUR free conference call?
Why is this right?
On what planet does this sort of arrangement make sense?
Why does the FCC allow this to go on?
Let me correct that for you
why should the general public subsidise commercial enterprises?
@ Ipopman
There is a rationale for termination fees, but I agree it may be weak.
This entire mess stems from the breakup of AT&T. In the old days, the monolithic AT&T was able to spread its costs around to subsidize the infrastructure needed to service remote areas. When they broke up AT&T, small telcos had to go it alone.
To "solve" this problem, they instituted the termination fee mechanism, whereby long distance calls terminating in these areas paid a fee for each such call; thus "preserving" the subsidy.
Problem today is, the local telcos and their partners have moved beyond subsidy to cash cow with this baroque arrangement. It no longer represents the original intent, and it needs to be stopped.
Do no evil
Hmm, not really in the spirit of the rules is it? Google becomes more like a normal corporation all the time. They were supposed to change the world!

Laurel Edwards has been one of the major players of 4KQ and the Breakfast Show for over 21 years. Her infectious personality and easy going nature have made her a listener favourite for so long.
Laurel was born and bred here in Brisbane, is passionate about
everything to do with the city including preserving our famous history.
Laurel is also a mother of two wonderful children, a presenter on Channel 7's "The Great South East" Sunday afternoons at 5:30pm and is also married to one of the gentlemen of country music, 20 time Golden Guitar winner Troy Cassar-Daley. Laurel is also passionate about her 70's music and can be seen and heard bopping along in the studio each morning to her favourite songs.
Laurel has also dabbled in music too. Back in the 90's she brought out her own album and one of her biggest singles was "Little Girl's Dreams", if your lucky you still may be able to find a copy in the bargain bin at your local record store!.
Each morning Laurel gives you all the latest in Entertainment News with Laurel's Lip Goss each morning at 6:45am. Also she likes to help celebrate listeners birthdays each morning and tries to give away some cash each day in the Birthday Wheel. Plus she gives a mother's point of view on most of the new topics and keeps you up to date with everything happening in the world!
"Handy" Gary Clare has also been with 4KQ's Breakfast Show for over 20 years. He first began his career in radio out in the country at such places as Roma, Toowoomba and Kingaroy before heading to ABC radio in Brisbane to produce the breakfast show there before heading over here to 4KQ where he produced the breakfast show for over 8 years before landing it in the big time on air.
Handy has also done various voice over work for many different commercial television stations and shows such as "Now You See It" and "My Generation.
In the 8 years on air, Handy has been the funny man of the 4KQ Breakfast Show with his quick wit and humour. He has provided us with some of the most hilarious parody songs and jokes for over a decade on air. He is also the resident quiz master for the Grand in the Hand.
He is a passionate sports follower who loves his soccer, especially his beloved Manchester United. He also loves his television with his love of shows and movies from over the past few decades.
Slaving over a hot radio desk for the last 22 years is where Mark Hine, anchor of the 4KQ Breakfast Show, has been for over half his life.
Well, there was a short break in 2000 when he was a staff writer for the tasteful "Hustler" magazine.
And the 8 month stint as host of the wildly successful Chanel 10 TV show - Ground Zero (broadcast most Saturday nights just before the high rating test pattern).
Radio is his passion and without it, he'd just have to survive with his collection of 80s video games and 8bit computers. (For his wife and children's sakes let's leave him in radio, he's quite a sad little man without it.)
Jo has been working in journalism since 2009, after a career as a Speech Pathologist.
Jo joined 4KQ in August 2012, after a few years at Brisbane's family station 96.5FM. She wore a number of hats at 96.5, including news director, breakfast newsreader, and breakfast show co-host.
Jo completed her journalism studies at the Queensland University of Technology, where she completed a Masters of Journalism in 2011. Her masters research topic looked at 'the etiquette surrounding afternoon tea in modern Australia'. No surprises, Jo enjoys all things 'afternoon tea' – especially the baking (and eating!) of scones. She is currently working hard to perfect her scone recipe and looks to Flo Bjelke-Peterson and Julia Childs as her role models in the kitchen.
Outside the newsroom, Jo loves spending time with her (very large) family … and feels blessed to call Brisbane home.
You can hear Jo reading the week-day breakfast news from 5am – 11am.
"Brownie" has been part of the 4KQ team for 25 years and his Coastwatch reports are relied on by those who go boating, fishing, surfing, or to the beach. His credibility comes from growing up doing all these things in SE Qld and all those years of involvement has given him a good understanding of how different weather patterns affect coastal conditions and where best to enjoy coastal leisure in different weather conditions.
Apart from a long career providing coastal information on TV and radio and in newspapers and on the net, "Brownie" is also a qualified marine master and has for long periods operated marlin fishing charters.
Brownie's 4KQ Coastwatch reports are heard at the following times:
Thursday & Friday: 6.35am & 5.05pm
Saturday: 6.40 & 8.40am … 12.40 & 5.05pm
Sunday: 6.40 & 8.40am … 12.40pm
Extra reports on public & school holidays
You can access coastal forecasts, current winds, tide times, weather radar, fishing and diving reports and links to surf cameras and reports 24/7 at coastwatch.com.au.

Time has been scarce lately and finding snipits of crafty time has been far more difficult than I'd like. Sewing is my jam though, so to keep myself sane I picked up a project that I can work on in small intervals. Let me introduce you to what's held my attention as of late - my new Sew Together bag!
I took the time to fussy cut some little scraps for the front of my bag, and chose a dark contrasting print from the same line for the background and back panel.
Last week I shared some progress pics and explained why I went with Lizzy House's Catnap line for this bag. Since then, I branched out by adding a gold metallic confetti dot neutral into the mix. I love how easily it fits in.
The contrast fabric in the pocket linings makes me unnaturally happy. Not too surprising since linings have always been my favourite detail. My catnap dress is a good example of that.
I don't have a tremendous amount of experience with installing zippers so I found the pattern directions to be extremely helpful. This bag is definitely the cleanest zipper installation I've ever done.
The details in pattern are so clever. I will definitely be making more of these in the future.
If you've made a Sew Together bag leave a comment below to let me know, I love seeing all the variations popping up online!

It's been over three years since the Volvo C30 Polestar Concept was unveiled, driven by journalists and, as it turns out, lapped around the Nürburgring with Scandinavian Touring Car Championship driver Robert Dahlgren behind the wheel. For whatever reason, the video of the 'Ring track session was only published by the tuning company yesterday. (Another discrepancy: Did Polestar's C30 lose 46 horsepower somewhere along the line? Because the video states that it has 405 hp, while the company's website quotes 451 hp...)
Whatever the case, the tuned Volvo is a beast, much more so than the similar-looking, 250-hp 2013 Volvo C30 Polestar Limited Edition that was sold last year. With 451 hp (sounds better than 405 hp, doesn't it?), all-wheel drive, limited-slip differentials front and rear and Öhlins dampers, the Polestar Concept checks all of the right boxes for us.
For some reason, the video, which you can watch below, seems a bit vanilla to us. Perhaps the overly dramatic music takes away from the action and the beautiful sounds of the turbocharged five-cylinder engine?

Arizona Cardinals
John Skelton's big day comes in a loss for the Cardinals
For the third time in his brief career Sunday, John Skelton threw for over 300 yards in a game. Unlike the prior two occurrences, however, Skelton's feat came in a Week 9 loss to the Packers.
While the third-year quarterback out of Fordham still turned the ball over Sunday and failed to give the Cardinals any sort of lead at Lambeau Field, Skelton's day was promising heading into a much-needed bye week.
On the Cardinals' first touchdown drive, Skelton followed a William Gay interception with a beautiful 40-yard deep ball where only wide receiver Andre Roberts could come down with it. The reception set up LaRod Stephens-Howling's touchdown run two plays later.
Down 24-7 midway through the third quarter, Skelton led the Redbirds on a rather impressive 87-yard scoring drive. He was methodical, hit the open man and didn't try to force the issue despite the differential on the scoreboard. On the drive, the former fifth round draft pick completed five passes capped off by a 31-yard touchdown catch by Larry Fitzgerald.
It wasn't quite mastery in motion, but as the Cardinals trimmed the Packers lead to just seven late in the third quarter, it appeared the offense was showing signs of life not seen since the fourth quarter in Week 6 against Buffalo.
While Skelton deserves a bulk of the credit for his big passing day, a lot of the praise should be given to the offensive line. On a day that saw rookie Nate Potter replace D'Anthony Baptiste at left tackle midway through the second quarter, the Cardinals' front five limited the Packers to just two sacks and seven hits on Skelton.
"I was encouraged by our protection today," said Ken Whisenhunt. "There were a lot of times John sat back there, made some reads and made some good throws."
Although it's probably not in the team's best interest to have Skelton throw 49 times a game -- as he's averaged over the past two contests -- the Cardinals starting quarterback should have had an even better day if not for six drops by his receivers.
Skelton may not have matched reigning MVP Aaron Rodgers mano-a-mano in the touchdown department Sunday, but even in defeat he was certainly impressive on a cold day against an opportunistic defense.
"John was poised in the pocket," said rookie receiver Michael Floyd. "He was delivering the ball to guys, reading the defense and throwing it to the open guy."
For the season, Skelton has now thrown for 1,052 yards, two touchdowns and five interceptions.

About Carolina/Jackie/Juan
I love to travel and meet new people. My husband and I like to work hard to enjoy the luxuries the world has to offer. I grew up in New York and now reside in Miami, my family is from Bulgaria and my husband is Colombian. I look forward to having you as a guest in our home in Cartagena.
Carolina/Jackie/Juan purchased this apartment in 2
Why Carolina/Jackie/Juan chose Bocagrande
After years of traveling to Cartagena and staying in hotels such as the Sofitel Santa Clara, Hilton etc. we realize that it was time to make the move and get a place to enjoy without the hassle of the hotels. We chose this building because of its location and beauty, we chose the decorations based on what we loved about all the different hotels we've experienced through our travels. We know how to live the good life and now you can experience this yourself in our apartment.
What makes this apartment unique
Its so hard to choose what makes our building and apartment special, if its the location and the fact you can walk at any time day or night, or you can go to a bar or restaurant, not to mention the breathtaking views from the balcony or the jacuzzi located in the top floor. There is something for everyone in our little paradise.

"English" Food [Split from U.K. thread]
I'll try not to turn this into another "comparing" thread - I don't like London either - or New York - and am glad I don't live in either city.
However, it may be helpful to folk trying to respond to your OP, if you were able to expand on what you mean by "English food". The problem is that there isnt really a simple definition (very like asking what's "American food") - for some, it could be the classic dishes of the 19th century (like , say, a Sussex Pond Pudding), for others it might be the awful stuff of my childhood in the 1950s (the food that gave my country the reputation for lousy food which is still trotted out by some foreigners) or it could be some of the more recent additions to our diet (added since we travelled abroad more and/or included tastes from the diversity of our immigrant communities).
I'd hate to think that, by accident, someone steered you off to some "tourist England" place when what you really wanted to eat was potted shrimps, braised pheasant with celery and some aged farmhouse Lancashire cheese (which is what we had at home on Saturday).
re: JFores
Don't forget the potted shrimps - one of THE delicacies of this country. If you havnt come across it yet, shrimps are very tiny (about 5mm long) - prawns are anything bigger. You need potted shrimp not prawn.
re: Harters
What is done with them? What do you mean by potted?
re: JFores
OK. This isnt something I'd make at home as the shop bought ones generally have the edge. Restaurants might, of course, make their own.
The finest are a north west speciality with the shrimps coming from Morecambe Bay. Shrimps are the same tiny brown ones you also find in the Netherlands.
There's a simple recipe in Jane Grigson's "English Food" which suggests taking a pint of peeled shrimp (this is why I wouldnt make it at home - I would lose the will to live peeling some many tiny creatures). You put them in a pan with 4 ounces good salted butter, quarter teaspoon powdered mace, a pinch of cayenne and a little bit of nutmeg. The spices need to be there but sit very much in the background. You put them in ramekin (hence potted - as in put in a pot) and when set , then cover with a layer of clarified butter to seal. Eat as a starter with bread (and more butter)
You're unlikely to find them in a supermarket but a good fishmonger should have them or one of the upmarket foodie stores (usually in the frozen cabinet).
Here's link with a bit more info - you'll also find the site has good summaries of our regional food. http://www.greatbritishkitchen.co.uk/...
If you're interested in seeing abit more about our regional foods while you're inLondon, Borough Market might be worth a nosy. I see from their website, they are having periodic "regional events" with stalls from suppliers who don't normally make the trip. I think the north west "event" is sometime next month
re: Harters
Okay, when you say "set" do you mean congealed? and then it turns into a "bread spread"? I am actually going to try this for my super bowl party. I will have to use bay shrimp. I have good friends from County Essex (Clacton-on-Sea) and they do love their English food.
re: paso_gurl_100
Set/congealed. I think I prefer to eat "set butter" than "congealed butter" though - just sounds more appetising.
But, yes, you put the shrimp and clarified butter into the ramekin and allow the butter to cool/harden. Then you pour a thin layer of butter on top to finish it off. What I would then do when I was ready to serve is warm it slightly so you can turn it out onto a plate. That way, the top layer of butter is now at the bottom and folk can see the shrimp. Needs nothing more than some nice bread and a squeeze of lemon. If you ever get bored with potted shrimp, just melt a portion into pasta.
English food to me is Shepherd's or Cottage Pie, Fish Pie, Roast Beef with Yorkshire Puds, Mulligatawny Soup (might be Scottish!), beautifully fried fish (not chip shop fish), Lancashire Hot Pot, amazing cheeses - Stilton, Cheddar, Cheshire, Lancashire, Sage Derby, Wensleydale, etc.
Don't forget British food these days is curry!
re: smartie
I thought Mulligatawny Soup originated in India.
re: danhole
I think it did but it's become an English dish - just like curry!!
oh man. umm i remember when my father and i used to find snails (??) and winkles and fish crabs out of the rocks when the tide was low with a coathanger. and we would take them home, boil them and pull them out of their shells with our fingers or the ends of pins and eat them with butter.
i also remember white cheddar and branston grilled sandwiches.
when i was young in england and my father or brother would shoot pheasant we would hang them up and let the feathers rot off and then eat them that way, letting the meat age.
i recall eating a lot of mcvities milk chocolate digestives. i can eat those like popcorn, unfortunately. thats actually an english food that i associate strongly with the country.
i also remember always having a raspberry bush in my backyard and an apple tree, and pretty much all my friends and family had the same.
i also strongly associate currants/slows and gooseberries with english food.
and also, every sunday my father and i would walk down to the corner bakery and buy pasties and some dandy comics for me. and of course, there is cornish icecream with a wafer stuck in it <3
re: tinymango
I ate at Haunch of Venison Restaurant in Salisbury once, and absolutely enjoyed the meal - traditional English, but with a slightly Modern/slightly lighter touch. There were 3 of us, and we ordered:
- Toad in the hole;
- Braised pork with apple sauce & creamed spinach; and
- Steamed venison pudding with celeriac mash.
Everything's delicious - unforgettable meal!
re: Chinon00
And welsh rarebit- cheese and beer mixed together.
re: marmite
Doesn't get much better than that. :-)
re: marmite
and marmite of course!
re: smartie
I love marmite. It really is true though what the adverts say : "you either love it or hate it".
re: FoodieKat
So true. Every person I've introduced to it has hated it, probably because they didn't grow up with it. Only one person said it was tolerable, but not something he'd ask for again.
Isn't curry the national dish?
This transplanted New Yorker loves cheese (good cheddar and stilton!), pickles and chutneys with cold meat, a good fish and chips, and sticky toffee pudding. However, the roast beef is generally horrendous compared with American roast beef. I can't figure out why.
re: Kagey
When I think of English Food I'm reminded of several of Rick Stein's TV series in whch he travels the countryside and coastal areas in search of farmers growing organic/free-range meats and poultry, and fishermen catching local seafood. Cheese makers and bread bakers continuing the work of their ancestors to insure the old recipes and ways are not forgotten. Local foods brought home and cooked simply and delicious. Those programs are some of the most visually beautiful and inspiring I have ever seen.
Aberdeen Angus beef, Herdwick lamb, Aylesbury ducks, Cumberland sausages from a rare breed of pork, Gressingham ducks and black pudding, Caerphilly cheese from Caws Cenarth in Ceredigion .....Award-winning blue Stilton and blue Shropshire cheeses from Cropwell Bishop Creamery in Nottingham....and on, and on. Gawd... what fantastic English food is available if you only know where to look.
re: smartie
I forgot about cream teas. And bakewell tarts (my favourite).
Things may have got a little confused since the Chowhound Team split this from another thread on the UK Board. I hadnt started a topic but was responding to one from JFores where he'd asked where he could get "English" food in London. My post (now what appears to be the OP of this thread) was simply to ask that he better define what he was looking for so folk could suggest restaurants. The exchanges between him and me after that are also from that thread.
I'm not sure either of us intended the discussion to meander off into "what is English food", interesting as it might be for a topic.
English food to me is the food my in-laws serve when I am home visiting them. And the food my husband cooks on Sundays. So roast dinners, shepherd's pie, fish and chips with mushy peas, stew with dumplings, suet puddings, etc. And good, aged cheeses, preferably with things like pickled onions.
The problem with New Cuisines is:
1) They exist in most sizeable countries
2) There is a lot of similarities among the countries (every freaking country now has French & Meditterranean influenced dishes... plus immigrants from Asia, Africa, Latin America etc.,)... so no none of them are really as unique as their proponents would like to advance.... and no growing the zucchini in England etc., doesn't make Pasta Primavera an English dish.
3) Most of the New Cuisine will be forgotten in a few decades... and only the Classics will survive to become part of that nation's cuisine in say 100 years from now.
English cuisine is only that dishes that are unique to England (they can have outside influences... after all, all significant National cuisines including the heavily plagiurizing French cuisine has significant outside influences)... and only once they are widespread & commonly consumed & prepared enough to be considered part of that country's culinary tradition.
For the most part English cuisine is that 1950's crap & the 19th Century classics... plus we will wait a couple of decades to see what Modern Classics become part of the perpetual English tradition.
Considering that England was a great seafaring nation, and that it made best-sellers of fine wines from other countires, I've always found English fod to be strangely insular.
I admire the British, but the food doesn't seem to have gone much beyond Prince Hal and Falstaff and their buddies chowing down on legs of capon. Bangers? Hey, develop some taste buds.
re: mpalmer6c
The grass is always greener elsewhere, but the Cotswold chedder, English cheese in general, and the easy availability of a good prawn sandwich at any Boots or other shop are things locals take for granted but people from farther away appreciate.
The better Indian restaurants, beef Wellington, Yorkshire pud, and Welsh rarebit set a standard for us in the US. I think the overcooking of vegetables and food in general gave local cooking the bad name.
Clotted local cream and scones - there is much to like, and for some reason a cup of tea tastes better there.
re: chowfamily
For the same reason a Mexican beer tastes better in Baja, and a cafe cubano tastes better in Miami, and a pizza tastes best in New York. It's all about the atmosphere that goes with it -- I can get a cafe cubano here in LA that's made exactly the same way as in Calle Ocho in Miami but it tastes better there because I have to have the humid sun and the Cuban-accented Spanish surrounding me.
re: Das Ubergeek
I don't know.... that Pizza in New York is magic independent of the tourist, infested, typical urinated Manhattan corner it occupies (LA can easily reproduce that same atmosphere... and the pizza aint going to taste the same)....
re: Das Ubergeek
This is very true. Since I moved back to the US I haven't had a cup of PG Tips tea that tastes anywhere near as good as it did after a chilly rainy day in England. Though I can easily buy PG Tips in Calfornia somehow it doesn't taste the same.
re: FoodieKat
I think it's because of a couple of things. Americans don't usually boil water in a kettle but use those hot tap things or a coffee machine or a Bunn's hot water machine.
Also, milk is different in the UK and USA so it just tastes different.
re: smartie
Disagree--most americans have a teapot (electric or stovetop). I've never seen anyone use a coffeemaker or (at home, not at work) use a hot water dispenser.
re: xanadude
I think the difference is Amercans don't add their tea to boiling water - just very hot water - I get funny looks in the office when I put my mug of "hot" water in the microwave to boil it before I add my tea bag (and cardomom pods - but that's another thread). And don't get me started on the tepid water restaurants typically bring with a floppy little orange pekoe teabag on the side. You're lucky if you end up with a cup of room-temperature red dye by the time you drink it.
re: butterchicken2nan
I'm sure that is true for some, but I do have an electric kettle at home, which is very similar to the one I used in England. But milk does taste different here, so maybe that's got something to do with it.
re: FoodieKat
I think the kettle is the most civilised thing about being in Europe. Every time i come to the US I am dismayed by the lack of a kettle in the hotel room (they expect me to make tea in the coffee maker???). Then again, in UK I am dismayed by the instant coffee love-- can be ok, but usually no more than ok.
Can't speak for English food. I live in Scotland where the produce is remarkable but everything has been battered and fried. (OK, I kind of overstate, but just kind of; plus I left out Irn Bru.)
re: Lizard
Yes. The mere prospect of drinking cheap instant hotel coffee is just as appealing as drinking tea made with boiling water from a filter coffee maker - yuck! Having said that, the instant coffee made by Carte Noire isn't too bad, nor is Nescafe's instant cappuccino. It wouldn't be my first choice by any means, but when needs must...it's ok.
re: smartie
Disagree. I've an electric kettle in my office and Fortnum tea, but it just doesn't taste like tea does in English, or in Ireland.
re: chowfamily
True, a cream tea is a lovely thing. And I do like the culture of having a kettle ready for a cup of tea at all times.
While I appreciate finer British cooking (venison, game, yorkshire pudding, etc), it is, on the whole, too expensive to indulge in-- dining out is expensive here. The average things-- pasties, sausage rolls, sausage pies-- can be good, but on the whole, I find them really underseasoned. Moreover, I'm constantly wondering why immigrant foods like West Indian pasties or Polish sausage have not taken off in these parts. The meat and dough elements should appeal to the local population, these would bring in the spices I find lacking.
Overcooked veg is at least veg. While the supermarkets and markets offer wonderful produce here, I find that the cooking neglects them. My friends think I have a healthful diet simply because I am keen on vegetables.
I should mention that I am not in England and this cannot really discuss ENGLISH food per se. I am in that nation to the north, so perhaps my experience is thus flavoured: in these parts a plate of chips is known as a Glasgow salad, and some restaurants couldn't get people to order a side salad, even when it was free. Seemed for a while I was hard pressed to find anything not battered.
Haggis, neeps, and tatties would be the standard Scottish dish. Plus anything battered. Haggis is nae bad, though. Quite like it when done right.
As for the prepared foods: the excess of mayonnaise depresses me and makes it near impossible to eat. Not sure what to make of the place that was testing out a sandwich with grilled vegetables; they asked if I'd like the margarine and mayo with it.
re: Lizard
I can't speak for Glasgow, but West Indian and Polish foods are increasingly making their presence felt in London. There are plenty of Jerk chicken/Jamaican patties on offer in S.E London, in addition to Nigerian & Ethiopian foods, and plenty of Polish grocers, although admittedly few takeaways. Maybe it just takes longer for the immigrant population to make its presence felt in Glasgow - witness the slow but steady growth of the Italian community.
re: babybat
I'm curious about WI food in London. Last time I was there I didn't see much evidence and London friends have noted same, as did an article in Guardian a while back (asking why so little WI food).
As for the Polish thing, I was just thinking that because my region is known for a large Polish community, and yet nothing yet. I'm looking forward to that and not another charity shop, or pizza place.
As for Harters' complain about culinary insularity-- I'd say that most European nations, not just UK, suffer the same sort of stasis. That's not to say that there aren't restaurants that innovate or create, or that there aren't restaurants that aren't glorious, but that these are small nations with relatively well defined identities and cuisines (with regions, of course). The US poses more of a challenge for its size and for the fact that it creates, in part, an identity based on immigration. Europe (and yes, I admit I speak broadly here) still struggles with ideas of identity outside of the national identity. (This is why there's a strange discourse on multiculturalism on this side of the Atlantic- but now I've gone waaaayyyyy OT.)
re: Lizard
Sounds like Wyoming, where the (curly) parsley garnish on the plate is often the only green thing available.
re: Das Ubergeek
Reminds me of a funny story I saw on TV once ... it was some chef, who had been cooking at high end places in big cities and then just up and moved to the rural south. He opened a diner and started serving normal diner food - but slowly and surely gussied it up a bit here and there, to the point that it became both a local favorite and a destination for people doing road trips.
Anyways, he told a story about the very first time he did any sort of "gussying", by putting parsley garnishes on his plates one morning. One of the customers asked him (the chef had the customer talking in a thick, exagerated drawl) "wutz this? buushes?"
re: jgg13
A few years back my wife and I walk into a funky looking place announcing "Steaks, Seafood & Mexican Dishes" near Venice, CA... should have left when we saw all the white hair but we were starved & broke. A few minutes after sitting down... a 80ish old guy with a Southern or Midwestern accent (whats the difference... jk).. exclaims "what's that green stuff?" at the waitress... she answers confused "Oh Its just Brocoli"... he says (quite angry)... "get it off my plate".
True Story.
re: mpalmer6c
When you say "insular", it is the nature of being a small country located on a small island. There isnt a cross-border influence that you might get in other countries.
But if you're suggesting that we havn't absorbed influences from our immigrant communities or from our European neighbours, then that is simply wrong.
It's a strange old thing though. There are frequent posts about how undeveloped British food is, indicating that we havnt moved on (from some often unspecified point in time). But we never seem to see the same criticism of classic Italian cusine, or French, or Spanish, etc , etc. I really can't account for it but it's probably as old-fashioned and out-dated a view as if I was to say that Amercian food is all Pizza Hut and Dennys.
re: Harters
Do Chocolate Hobnobs by McVities count?
Addictive. Glorious.
re: dolores
I'm a plain choccy digestives girl myself! Sadly unavailable in America though I can get the milk choccy ones but they are not as good dunked in tea.
re: Harters
Yet, if you go to a large European city, that is exactly the view that many people have. One instance that stands out in my head is having a really divine plate of galta amb llor in Barcelona and exclaiming (in Catalan) that it was so flavourful... the waiter smiled and said that people in Barcelona knew how to eat, unlike America with McDonalds and Starbucks.
I invited him to come to San Francisco or New York and Los Angeles and let me prove him wrong. But insularity seems to have spread beyond the insulae.
re: mpalmer6c
I'd love to know what experience you base that assessment on! "British" food has certainly grown to include lots of international influences by now, though it's true that the best of British restaurant cooking these days is too expensive for most people. But I would argue that the proliferation of ethnic cuisines (in my town--not a big city--alone, we have three Thai, about four surprisingly good Italian, many Indian, a Mexican, a pan-Asian, a French, and a few other decent restaurants, not including chains like Wagamama and Cafe Rouge) is evidence of taste buds!
And by the way, the English wine industry is booming down in the south!
re: Kagey
"...is evidence of taste buds!"
In the U.S. we speak of the "Ugly American".... Brittain also has this legacy... with the Brittish arguably historically being even more ethnocentric, arrogant & patronizing... BUT the newer generations are certainly more cosmopolitan, well traveled & cultured (I think younger Brittish people understand what I am talking about since there seems to be a cultural coup against the Queen these days).
How does this apply to food? The older generations seemed to regard cuisines (other than French) to be of an inferior culture, and used that filter to nitpick the food and rationalize its inferiority to English cuisine (this is succintly recorded in a mid 1800s travelouge "Life in Mexico" written by a brittish nobelwoman married to Calderon - a Spanish ambassador. I don't think every Brittish traveler gets Mexican cuisine... particularly the spicy etc.,... but the approach I see from the current generation of tourists seems so different to what you read in that back... and even compared to Brittish travelers over a certain age.
So what I am getting at... arguably the Brittish didn't have genuine, appreciative taste buds for cultural reasons (would anybody really thinks its physiological?).... and those aspects of Brittish culture seem to be changing rapid with the new generations that grew up questioning the Queen etc.,... I belive the Brittish have developed taste buds... and we shouldn't be so ethnocentric, arrogant & patronizing to not recognize that.
re: Eat_Nopal
Well, the Queen and her class and the anglo-centric British upper classes certainly eat some of the best foods in Britain, taking advantage of the the nation's excellent meats, fish, dairy products and produce. Prince Charles in particular has been a champion of organic farming in the UK and is certainly one of the leading experts on sustainable agriculture, and his line of baked goods and preserves, Duchy Organics, is a bestseller in supermarkets across the nation.
Taste buds are different to different people. I avoid eating too much of too spicy and too salty dishes, like the hot curries of India or the moles of Mexico, because they tend to blunt my taste buds and make it difficut for me to actually taste the food I'm eating. French cooking, for example, has its basis on the subtle flavors of fresh produce and meats, not spices. Good UK cooking is much the same.
The trend to more bastardized Thai, Chinese, Mexican, Italian etc foods, where the flavors of oil, salt and a few other strongly flavored processed ingredients dominate, has helped to dull many people's taste buds and turned them off from eating, say, vegetables and other healthier foods. This is particularly a problem in America and among the working class English.
re: Roland Parker
There's been a wonderful program on BBC America early on Sunday mornings called something like English menu - where top chefs from different regions of the UK competed to make the dishes that would be served at a birthday party for Queen Elizabeth. I really enjoyed it - often the chefs would go out themselves to obtains some of the ingredients - stalking the deer, catching the fish etc.
re: MMRuth
It will have been "The Great British Menu" - there's been two series. The first is the one you've seen. The second was for a meal at our Embassy in Paris.
Both show fine examples of modern Brit regional cuisine (and I've recently eaten at Richard Corrigan's restaurant - it was fab).
re: Harters
Yes indeed - that's it - thanks! I should have known that "English Menu" was wrong, since Scotland and Ireland were included!
re: MMRuth
And Wales!
re: mpalmer6c
Actually, it's not at all insular, making extensive use of tropical spices (mace, caraway, clove, nutmeg, mustard etc), fruits and herbs like sage. The problem is diametrically opposite to what you claim to identify - it has lost its roots in Prince Hal etc. The dishes of the Elizabethan age were much more interesting, and even up to the thirties things were much better. I blame WW2. Fortunately, traditional British/English cooking is being rediscovered, slowly. Re bangers - nothing wrong with my taste buds, thank you. I like bog standard bangers with a Full English breakfast and a strong cup of tea. Later on in the day, perhaps with alcohol, I like more flavoursome sausages, which are now plentiful fortunately. See them in any good supermarket.
I immediately think fish and chips, then beef wellington, then a great assortment of fabulous beers, then Lyles Golden Syrup pudding, then London curries, then haggis, etc.... I'd be happy in London... forever.
If jfood can add one of his favorites that he gets every trip to the UK. The bacon/egg/cheese on a roll from the 100's of little places tucked in the side streets of Mayfair are fantatstic. The use a wonderful piece of English bacon (not the US strips) real butter to cook the egg (not spray) and a good slice of cheese (all gooey). That and a good cup of English tea and the day begins.
I quite like English food, when it's done properly. For those who would like (or, need) a glimpse into the tradional cuisine of the lower rural classes in the south of England at the end of the 19th century, I recommend The Lark Rise Recipe Book, by Mary Norwak, based on the writing of Flora Thompson. The recipes are simple, but truly mouth-watering.
re: DonShirer
All remain very popular home food - and justly so.
Although the "full fry-up" for breakfast can be dismal affair if, particularly, cheap sausages are used ( see the above comment by my co-patriot, Lord Brazing).
I miss the pub food: the Ploughman's lunch, the steak and kidney, Cock-a-leekie and seafood pies along with "in the wood" ales.
One of my fondest memories was going to a Brit-Am formal dinner party in Helsinki. Dinner was served and a silver, covered chafing dish brought out, the cover lifted off and all the Brits sang out in joyous union, at what looked like a pile of dog turds on the tray, SAUSAGES! Oh the joy of one's native foods found abroad. The Yanks were a bit confused and the Brits, rapturous. Damn, they were good sausages.
I enjoyed the tea with milk, the fish and chips, and the scones. I do think these things tasted better in the UK and Ireland, to agree with others on this board. Maybe this had to do with the weather or the great conversations with people that came with a good cup of tea and biscuits. :)
For the most part, I'm sorry to say, British food is not too appealing to me. I prefer Mexican, Korean and Persian food, and these were not readily available whiIe I was there (over a decade ago). I know things have changed, with the influx of new immigrants. I would be very interested in trying some of the new ethnic cuisines available there now, if I ever go back. :)
re: katkoupai
My views on British food (which mostly consisted of vicarious nostalgia based on the many English mysteries/novels I read) have changed quite a bit since I've been cooking from Simon Hopkinson's books lately. Two of the dishes were truly outstanding and some of the most memorable things I've cooked in a very long time.

Cyber bullies may face UK imprisonment
Friday, March 28, 2014
LONDON - Under the UK government's new plans to be introduced this year, criminals convicted with text message abuse or cyber bullying can face up to two years imprisonment.
The amendment to the criminal justice bill supported by the British Justice Secretary, Chris Grayling aims to combat trolls that verbally abuse or sexually harass individuals on the internet or via mobile phones in England and Wales.
The amendment proposed by the Conservative MP for Ealing Central and Acton Angie Bray seeks for greater penalties of up to two years in prison and is expected to be approved at Westminister this year.
Back in January this year, 23-year-old Isabella Sorley and 25-year-old John Nimmo, who sent abusive messages on Twitter to feminist campaigner, Caroline Criado-Perez were sentenced to 12 and 8 weeks in prison, respectively.
Previously, British Minister in charge of Culture, Media and Sport, Helen Goodman made a legal framework call in order to tackle cyber bullying as several teenagers commited suicide following online abuse.
Back in 2012, 15-year-old Tallulah Wilson was hit by a train. Following her death, it was revealed that she developed an alternative fantasy life online, and in addition last year, a 14-year-old Hannah Smith hung herself following months of bullying by anonymous 'trolls' on the internet.

Before the concrete idea of becoming a travel writer or even a travel blogger entered my mind, I met Klaas. My husband, Cory, and I had decided to spend spring break in Peru, taking the four-day hike to Machu Picchu. I was working full-time in Corporate America at the time, but it was not going well. I was unhappy and working to build a portfolio of freelance clients on the side so I could get out sooner rather than later. Cory and I worked our leg muscles, training our bodies to get used to the arduous we were going to put them through. Our bags were packed, our passports ready to be stamped. And then the day before we left for our trip, I was let go from my department (creative and advertising services) and told there may be a position waiting for me in IT when I returned, but that I'd have to interview for it just like anyone else.
And so we left for Peru, intent on enjoying the experience regardless of whether I had a job when I returned home or not.
It's funny how things work out, really. We've been on trips before where we meet people and exchange pleasantries, but on our hike to Machu Picchu, we met three people that have steadfastly remained our friends to this day. Two of those people are Bethany and her husband. The third is Klaas.
Klaas was the first around-the-world traveler I'd ever met. Considering what I do for a job now and the fact that I regularly meet people tripping around the globe all the time, it's funny to think that just three years ago Klaas was introducing a foreign idea into my word. Originally from The Netherlands, Klaas was taking about a year to travel the world, hitting countries of interest as he went. He was nearing the end of his trip and had just come from Bolivia, where he participated in adventure activities that properly prepared him for the physical exertion we faced on the Inca Trail. While we took our time going up and down the hills, trying to catch our wheezing breath, Klaas literally ran from one stop to the next, squeezing in naps before lunch and dinner before we'd even rolled into camp. He had no problems taking on the trail, and at night, when our small group of six hikers and two guides gathered around the makeshift dinner table, Klaas shared stories about the places he'd been. He was interesting and engaging, and his travels inspired me to do something better with my life, even if I needed to bide my time in IT until I could make a clean break from the toxicity of the cubicle.
On our final day on the Inca Trail, we all decided to stay in touch via Facebook. Klaas and I occasionally toss notes back and forth on the site, and he was particularly interested in the time that Alexandra spent with us last semester because he was a foreign exchange student in Canada when he was in high school. He speaks highly of the experience, and I often hoped while Alex was with us that she would have similar thoughts in the years ahead.
When I decided to send Klaas a letter, I asked him for his snail mail address, and he told me he had to Google the term "snail mail" to find out what it meant. My note to him was primarily about traveling—where we've been as of late, where we're going. I also told him that we aren't planning on hosting a foreign exchange student this coming semester, but that we hope to do so again in the future. From what I can tell on Facebook, Klaas is doing well, and it's exciting to see how far we've both come in just a few short years.

IET Biometrics
The field of biometric recognition - automated recognition of individuals based on their behavioural and biological characteristics - has now reached a level of maturity where viable practical applications are both possible and increasingly available. The biometrics field is characterised especially by its interdisciplinarity since, while focused primarily around a strong technological base, effective system design and implementation often requires a broad range of skills encompassing, for example, human factors, data security and database technologies, psychological and physiological awareness, and so on. Also, the technology focus itself embraces diversity, since the engineering of effective biometric systems requires integration of image analysis, pattern recognition, sensor technology, database engineering, security design and many other strands of understanding.

When we were in Bali, Indonesia for the AMAZING wedding of this couple (that we will share soon) we spent an afternoon with them photographing this In The Mood For Love inspired engagement shoot. We had so much fun taking over an awesome restaurant, Siam Sally, in Ubud for an hour. Amy had the most beautiful Cheongsams made for the shoot that fit the feel of the story so well. If you haven't seen the movie by Wong Kar-wai, you must! We had to stop for a minute to pinch ourselves that we were shooting in BALI….
TQ + Amy {in the mood for love- Bali, Indonesia}
so nice!!!!
Holy smokes! "In the Mood Love" is one of my favorite and sexiest movies of all time, and looking at these pictures in Hong Kong where the movie was set is even more awesome. What a great session. Love them!!
Beautiful. I saw this on greenweddingshoes.com. It's easily one of my favorite movies and they are such a lovely couple. I absolutely love this.
Where did you get those beautiful qipaos?
sensational, i love this work. in the mood for love is a great movie to be inspired from.
i hope this couple stays together a year longer then forever..
years later after going thru some old thumbnails, i come across these photos, absolutely senational shots of this beautiful couple…
great work!! wong kar wai truly an inspiration
