Low Latency No. 28: Tablet tease
Microsoft's press conference earlier this week reminded us a lot of what Apple has perfected -- the dramatic press conference. However, after the lights went off, we still had plenty of questions about what the new Microsoft Surface tablets were going to cost and when we could buy them. If Microsoft is using the Apple Playbook, they may have skipped a page or two.
Love it or hate it, Apple has all but mastered the art of the press conference. It's not that they use fancy graphics or a laser-light show, it's mostly because they answer a lot of questions and perhaps most importantly, begin selling the product right away. Cashing in on the excitement of a new product and then allowing the public to buy it immediately is something no other company really does, so it'll be interesting to see if the Surface hype is still churning once it's finally ready to be sold. … Read more

NEW YORK, Jan 30 (Reuters) - A home builder has asked a federal appeals court to throw out a National Labor Relations Board ruling, citing Friday's decision by another appeals court that President Barack Obama violated the U.S. Constitution when he filled three board positions using recess appointments in January 2012.
The argument, made in a letter filed Tuesday by home builder D.R. Horton, Inc with the 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in New Orleans, appears to be one of the first attempts to extend Friday's ruling from the District of Columbia circuit court to other recess appointments made prior to 2012.
The District of Columbia court said Friday that the Senate was not truly in recess in January 2012 when Obama named the three new members, a decision that could significantly limit the power of the president to sidestep Congress when pushing future federal nominees.
The letter from D.R. Horton, however, calls into question whether the decision could impact past appointments as well.
The company claims Obama's recess appointment of Craig Becker to the labor board in 2010 should also be considered invalid, relying on the D.C. circuit's reasoning.
Not counting Becker, the board had only two members, less than a quorum, when it issued a ruling on Jan. 3, 2012, in the Horton case prohibiting companies from requiring their workers to waive their right to bring collective action, the company claimed.
Different circuit courts are not obligated to follow one another's rulings.
Nancy Cleeland, a spokeswoman for the board, declined to comment. Ron Chapman, a lawyer for D.R. Horton, did not immediately have a comment.
Other companies have already begun citing the D.C. circuit's decision in challenging NLRB rulings made after Obama's three appointments.
Entergy Mississippi, a unit of Entergy Corp, filed a brief Monday in the 5th circuit arguing in part that a NLRB ruling in August 2012 concerning whether its dispatchers are bargaining-unit workers should be invalidated because of the recess appointments.
The case is D.R. Horton Inc. v. NLRB, U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit, No. 12-60031.

Cuuute!: Hello Kitty 'Castle' Opens In Shanghai
It looks more like a house to me, but like the saying goes, "one man's house is another He-Man's Castle Grayskull". So who am I to argue? BESIDES THE BEST DAMN (MASS) DEBATER MY HIGH SCHOOL EVER SAW! Anyway, this is a Hello Kitty castle that recently opened to the feline loving public in Shanghai, China. I have no idea why, I guess it's like a museum or something. A museum of cuteness! See ladies, I can be sensitive. Even more sensitive than old people teeth. But I can still eat ice cream. I'll be at the parlor, call me.
Hit the jump to see several more of the cat ladyness.
Hello Kitty castle [toomuchfreetime]
We've already seen a video of a kitty literally OM NOM NOMing it's food, but guess what? I love kitties (I even heart hairless cats, it's true) so here comes another. Plus, as an added bonus, there are two, count them, TWO kitties in this video. And two times five is ten. A... / Continue →

Ephemeral fever is an insect-transmitted, noncontagious, viral disease of cattle and water buffalo that is seen in Africa, the Middle East, Australasia (excluding Papua New Guinea and New Zealand), and Asia south of the former USSR. Inapparent infections can develop in Cape buffalo, hartebeest, waterbuck, wildebeest, deer, and possibly goats. Low levels of antibody have been recorded in several other antelope species and giraffe, but the specificity has not been confirmed.
Ephemeral fever virus is classified as a member of the genus Ephemerovirus in the family Rhabdoviridae (single-stranded, negative sense RNA). The virus is ether-sensitive and readily inactivated at pH levels below 5 and above 10. Although no evidence of immunogenic diversity is reported, antigenic variation has been demonstrated using panels of monoclonal antibodies and by epitope mapping.
The virus can be transmitted from infected to susceptible cattle by IV inoculation; as little as 0.005 mL of blood collected during the febrile stage is infective. Although the virus has been recovered from several Culicoides species and from Anopheline and Culicine mosquito species collected in the field, the identity of the major vectors has not been proved. Transmission by contact or fomites does not occur. The virus does not appear to persist in recovered cattle, which often have a lifelong immunity.
The prevalence, geographic range, and severity of the disease vary from year to year, and epidemics occur periodically. During epidemics, onset is rapid; many animals are affected within days or 2–3 wk. Ephemeral fever is most prevalent in the wet season in the tropics and in summer to early autumn in the subtropics or temperate regions (when conditions favor multiplication of biting insects); it disappears abruptly in winter. Virus spread appears to be limited by latitude rather than topography or availability of susceptible hosts. Morbidity may be as high as 80%; overall mortality is usually 1–2%, although it can be higher in lactating cows, bulls in good condition, and fat steers (10–30%).
Signs, which occur suddenly and vary in severity, can include biphasic to polyphasic fever (40–42°C), shivering, inappetence, lacrimation, serous nasal discharge, drooling, increased heart rate, tachypnea or dyspnea, atony of forestomachs, depression, stiffness and lameness, and a sudden decrease in milk yield. Clinical signs are generally milder in water buffalo. Affected cattle may become recumbent and paralyzed for 8 hr to >1 wk. After recovery, milk production often fails to return to normal levels until the next lactation. Abortion, with total loss of the season's lactation, occurs in ∼5% of cows pregnant for 8–9 mo. The virus does not appear to cross the placenta or affect the fertility of the cow. Bulls, heavy cattle, and high-lactating dairy cows are the most severely affected, but spontaneous recovery usually occurs within a few days. More insidious losses may result from decreased muscle mass and lowered fertility in bulls.
Ephemeral fever is an inflammatory disease. The most common lesions include polyserositis affecting pleural, pericardial, and peritoneal surfaces; serofibrinous polysynovitis, polyarthritis, polytendinitis, and cellulitis; and focal necrosis of skeletal muscles. Generalized edema of lymph nodes and lungs, and atelectasis may also be present.
Diagnosis is based almost entirely on clinical signs in an epidemic. All clinical cases have a neutrophilia with the presence of many immature forms, although this is not pathognomonic. Serofibrinous inflammation in the tendon sheaths, fasciae, and joints, together with pulmonary lesions, may substantiate a presumptive diagnosis.
Laboratory confirmation is by serology, rarely by virus isolation. Whole blood should be collected from sick and apparently healthy cattle in affected herds and must be sufficient to provide 2 air-dried blood smears, 5 mL of whole blood in anticoagulant (not EDTA), and ~10 mL of serum. A differential leukocyte count on blood smears can either support or refute a presumptive field diagnosis.
Virus is best isolated by inoculation of mosquito (Aedes albopictus) cell cultures with defibrinated blood, followed by transfer to baby hamster kidney (BHK-21) or monkey kidney (Vero) cell cultures after 15 days. Suckling mice may also be used for primary isolation by intracerebral inoculation. Isolated viruses are identified by PCR, neutralization tests using specific ephemeral fever virus antisera, and ELISA using specific monoclonal antibodies. The neutralization test and the blocking ELISA are recommended for antibody detection and give similar results. A 4-fold rise in antibody titer between paired sera collected 2–3 wk apart confirms infection.
Complete rest is the most effective treatment, and recovering animals should not be stressed or worked because relapse is likely. Anti-inflammatory drugs given early and in repeated doses for 2–3 days are effective. Oral dosing should be avoided unless the swallowing reflex is functional. Signs of hypocalcemia are treated as for milk fever (see Parturient Paresis in Cows). Antibiotic treatment to control secondary infection and rehydration with isotonic fluids may be warranted.
Attenuated virus vaccines appear to be effective but should be used only in endemic areas. Inactivated virus vaccines have not produced longterm protection against experimental challenge with virulent virus and cannot guarantee lasting immunity, but they may boost the immunity produced by live virus vaccine. Although a subunit vaccine that protects against field and laboratory challenge has been described, it is not commercially available. The efficacy of vector control remains uncertain because the insect vectors have not been fully identified. There is no evidence that humans can be infected.

When to Use
Use whenever setting up an aquarium, changing water or adding water to the aquarium. Heavy metals such as copper, lead and zinc can be found in most tap water supplies. These metals are toxic to tropical fish, therefore it is important that tap water be treated before adding it to an aquarium.

Hurricane Katrina struck the Gulf Coast with devastating force at daybreak on Aug. 29, 2005, pummeling a region that included the fabled city of New Orleans and heaping damage on neighboring Mississippi. In all, more than 1,700 people were killed and hundreds of thousands of others displaced.
Packing 145-mile-an-hour winds as it made landfall, the category 3 storm left more than a million people in three states without power and submerged highways even hundreds of miles from its center. The hurricane's storm surge — a 29-foot wall of water pushed ashore when the hurricane struck the Gulf Coast — was the highest ever measured in the United States. Levees failed in New Orleans, resulting in political and social upheavals that continued a half decade later.
Katrina ranks as one of the most punishing hurricanes ever to hit the United States. Damage, costing billions of dollars, has made it one of the costliest storms on record. In New Orleans, floodwaters from the breached levee rose to rooftops in the poorest neighborhood, and in many areas residents were rescued from roofs of homes that became uninhabitable. The hurricane's howling winds stripped 15-foot sections off the roof of the Superdome, where as many as 10,000 evacuees had taken shelter. An exodus of hundreds of thousands left the city, many becoming refugees, finding shelter with nearby relatives or restarting their lives in states as far away as Massachusetts and Utah.
Experts who studied the disaster say the hurricane was more like four storms — at least — that battered the area in different ways. They say the flood protection system in New Orleans was flawed from the start because the model storm it was designed to stop was simplistic, and led to an inadequate network of levees, flood walls, storm gates and pumps. And experts say that understanding the failings is essential in planning the next generation of flood protection for a rebuilt New Orleans, and for systems nationwide.
The head of the Federal Emergency Management Agency, Michael D. Brown, was stripped of his post amid fears within the Bush administration that its delayed response to the disaster could do lasting damage to both President George W. Bush's power and his legacy. But more important to some members of the administration, it dented the administration's aura of competence. In the end, the federal government's response was seen as too little and too late.
In the wake of the storm, the region's grinding poverty, longstanding corruption and political ineptitude — particularly in the Big Easy — were exposed along with the inadequacies of federal, state and local agencies. Gradually, the region stabilized as aid was meted out and many of its residents returned.
Rulings on the Army Corps of Engineers
In November 2009, Judge Stanwood Duval Jr. of federal District Court ruled that poor maintenance of a major navigation channel, the Mississippi River-Gulf Outlet or MR-GO, by the Army Corps of Engineers led to some of the worst flooding after the hurricane. It was the first time that the government was held liable for any of the flooding that inundated the New Orleans area after Aug. 29, 2005, vindicating the long-held contention of many in the region that the flooding was far more than an act of God.
While the government is generally immune from flooding claims resulting from failures of flood control projects, Judge Duval ruled that damage related to the 76-mile channel was different because its purpose was navigation, not flood protection, even though it was lined with levees. The government appealed the decision, asking the full circuit to rehear the case.
In September 2012, the Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit ruled that the government is immune from lawsuits for decisions made by the corps that might have left the MR-GO vulnerable.
"MR-GO's size and configuration greatly aggravated the storm's effects on the city and its environs," wrote Judge Jerry E. Smith, writing for a three-judge panel, adding that the federal tort claims act "completely insulates the government from liability."
In March, the same panel had ruled that the government was liable for some of the flooding, affirming the 2009 ruling by Judge Duval.
Flood Protection System Passes First Test
Seven years to the week after Hurricane Katrina, New Orleans was hit by another potentially deadly storm. Isaac was a Category 1 hurricane that caused severe flooding through a wide area of Louisiana and Mississippi.
In New Orleans, though, the the $14.5 billion in levee defenses put in place since 2005 passed its first test. But a Category 1 storm with surges of 10 to 14 feet presented challenges less severe than the new ring of defenses were designed to meet.
Nearly Seven Years Later, Police Shooters Sentenced
On April 4, 2012, five former police officers were sentenced to lengthy prison terms in federal court in New Orleans for the shootings of six unarmed civilians, two of whom died, in the days after Hurricane Katrina, and for orchestrating a wide-ranging cover-up afterward.
The five former police officers were convicted in August 2011 on a range of counts including federal civil rights violations and lying to investigators.
On Sept. 4, 2005, as much of New Orleans still lay submerged in floodwaters, Kenneth Bowen and Robert Gisevius, then sergeants, and Anthony Villavaso and Robert Faulcon, then officers, jumped in a Budget rental truck and raced with other officers to the Danziger Bridge in eastern New Orleans, responding to a distress call on the police radio.
As soon as they arrived, witnesses at the trial said, they began firing on members of the Bartholomew family, who were trying to find a grocery store. A 17-year-old family friend named James Brisette was killed, and four others were severely wounded.
The police then began to chase two brothers, Lance and Ronald Madison, who was 40 years old and mentally disabled, who were trying to get to the other side of the bridge. Ronald Madison was shot in the back by Officer Faulcon and then stomped on by Sergeant Bowen as he lay dying.
A cover-up began immediately and eventually grew to include made-up witnesses and a planted handgun. Sgt. Arthur Kaufman, a veteran investigator, was charged with overseeing much of the cover-up. He was sentenced to six years.
The four who were involved in the actual shooting were sentenced to terms ranging from 38 to 65 years.

Comments about Pittsburgh Automotive 4 Piece Fluid Line Clamp Set:
I was a little afraid the knobs would break on these (they're plastic molded around a metal nut), but after really cranking down on some tough brake hoses with them, I didn't look back. Nice selection of sizes but don't expect even the largest to fit your typical radiator hose. I'd like to see these have a lifetime warranty (aren't they a hand tool, HF?), but for the price I can hardly complain. Although the knob has plastic, the rest of the tool is made out of metal, for those wondering.

This is one of the greatest products you didn't know you needed. I've used this a million times already. Just buy 2 sets in case you need to pinch off 2 large coolant hoses. This is the best when you need to replaces hoses or heater cores and don't feel like spending another $20-$50 replacing coolant that's only a few months old.

Little Yangon, Authentic Burmese in Daly City
Just ate here this week, Fantastic food, friendly service, extensive menu. Open 10-10 everyday. This place puts the Burmese restaurants in SF to shame and is filled with local Burmese immigrants. They also sell Tea Leaves and other Burmese products. Anyone else been?
I ate here for a second time over the weekend. It wasn't very busy early on Saturday when we were there. I wasn't super impressed on my first visit, but this visit I liked the meal more. We had:
Coconut-chicken noodle soup: the soup was thick, and I thought it was a bit on the salty side. Noodles were pretty mushy. I like this dish much better at Mandalay and Burmese Kitchen.
Mohinga: Maybe my favorite version of this dish that I've tried in the Bay Area, beating out both Mandalay and BK. Served w/ pieces of fried donut on top, it was great with a squeeze of lime and some extra chili powder.
Tofu salad: Made with Burmese chickpea tofu, this was a very different dish than what I'm used to at Burmese Kitchen. The sauce was light, almost like a vinaigrette, as opposed to the richer, spicier tamarind based sauce at Burmese Kitchen. The pieces of tofu were small and very smooth, but I still think I prefer the version at Burmese Kitchen. Still, nice to have some variety.
Tea leaf salad: Made with larger pieces of tea leaves than the various SF restaurants, which I like. It also had more tomato, which I really like (Mandalay only gives you a few tiny cherry tomatoes). I felt that the tea leaf salad came underseasoned, but this may have been on-purpose. Once we added some fish sauce, I really liked it.
Service is friendly, and parking is pretty easy. It's definitely mom&pop homestyle cooking, and while I still wouldn't put the food here above other places, it's nice that there's another option in town (almost) that's making some great Burmese dishes.
Got some takeout last night, this is still my favorite.
They packed the mohinga in two tubs, one for the catfish broth / purée and another for the chicken broth, and a box for the noodles etc., so the crunchy stuff stayed crunchy. Very good though next time maybe I'd simmer the noodles in the chicken broth for a minute. I need to go back to Burmese Kitchen to compare.
Rainbow salad and ginger salad, best versions of these. Great mixes of flavors and textures.
I ordered balachan, the server told me Indonesians always order that with the garlic noodles, so I got those as well. Very satisfying combination.
The seasonal vegetable was green beans, that was simple but good, basic stir-fry with chile sauce and fermented shrimp or fish.
Hours have changed slightly, check the web site.
re: Robert Lauriston
Thanks for the heads up on the opening time change -- it made me go to the website and notice they take reservations, which I did not realize. S'pose they should change the times on the front page notice about offering breaky since they are opening later now... still thinking about the pickled shrimp salad...
I had a mediocre experience at Little Yangon years ago, after it had received a bit of chowhound hype, so it took me a while to get back. After striking out at Haig's (they no longer carry it?) and Myanmar Pyi Thar (closed, despite posted hours) on packaged tea leaves I finally stopped by Little Yangon again. I obdained the desired packaged salad, and got a much better meal than my first time here. There has been a remodel and they no longer microwaved the dishes behind the counter in the dining room. I got the mohinga and the pickled shrimp salad. The young server claimed these were her favorites, and they were just what I was in the mood for, as I wasn't that hungry. The mohinga was nice and thick, served with plenty of accompaniments--chili flake, yellow bean fritters, lime, and cilantro.
I really liked the pickled shrimp salad, and haven't come across it before. Initially it seemed like a less acidic ceviche, then I realized that the shrimp were a chopped and compressed product. I was initially wary of a salad of mostly raw red onion, thought they seem to have been soaked to remove their bite, and the overall mix was very pleasing. I'll definitely be back. -
Our group of six met for lunch Thursday at Little Yangon. We had--
#3 Fried Tofu (made from chana dal with house special sauce)
#5 Tea Leaf Salad
#21 Mandalay Myee Shay (rice stick noodles with pork and pickled mustard leaf)
#28 Moh Hinga (Cat fish chowder)
#41 Pork Curry with Chin Bong (Pork curry cooked with sour leaves)
#48 Fish Curry
#59 Chin Bong Jaw (Burmese-style sour vegetables sauteed with green chili, chopped shrimp & bamboo shoots)
#62 Tea leaves Rice
#63 Coconut Rice
#71 Soup of the Day (dal and cabbage soup) (comp'ed)
#84 Moh Se Kyaw (Burmese fried crispy dessert, made with rice flour, peanuts, sesame seed & shredded coconut)
#86 Mango Pudding (comp'ed)
PalatasFirst to come out were the palatas, fried tofu and tea leaf salad. The palatas were great- crispy on the outside, flavorful and soft inside. I could say the same about the fried tofu, but the sauce it came with didn't add much. The tea leaf salad had some nice texture but not as much flavor as some others I've had.
The Mohinga soup was not the thick porridge that others have described and there would have been no point in asking for more broth, but the flavor was good. It would have benefited from the addition of some nice crunchy extras but my share was quite small and I ate it with only lime juice added, which definitely perked it up. The Soup of the Day also benefited from some added lime juice.
The highlight of the meal for me was the Chin Bong Jaw, especially when eaten on a palata. It had a great complex flavor. I also really liked the Myee Shay. The curries were good but not awesome. The Moh Se Kyaw dessert was very good, nice and crispy with good flavor, but the comp'ed mango pudding was almost tasteless with a boring dense texture.
We got a lot of food for $13 per person (including tip). None of the dishes were very spicy. I'd go back for the palatas, Chin Bong Jaw, Myee Shay, and Moh Se Kyaw.
Keep forgetting to post that when I stopped by last month, Little Yangon was offering a "Spring Special". I just called to see if it's still on, and yes, it's still available. Mornings every day except Tuesday, some dishes are available for only $5. Don't know if they're smaller, but in any case, here's the list and info:

Went for lunch yesterday. The place was fairly busy, looked like mostly Burmese.
Mohinga, (chana dal) tofu salad, palata with chicken curry, pun thay noodle (fried thick round wheat? noodles with coconut milk etc.), balachang, and coconut rice were all great. They threw in a couple of small bowls of dal to finish the meal, also delicious.
The palata is like a Malabar paratha aka malawach. I don't think they add any sugar, though.
The one dish I wouldn't order again was salted fish sauce with vegetables. The dipping sauce was good but it was a weird assortment of vegetables including bamboo shoot, banana blossom, dahendi, some kind of bland squash, and cabbage.
I'm really eager to go back to try more. Lots of interesting dishes I've never heard of before.
Has anyone been back to LY since the Groupon offer? It seems the Yelp reviews have dropped precipitously since the Groupon-- complaints of meager portions and microwave use abound. I was hoping to take the in-laws over for dinner this week. Thanks for any assistance.
re: Greyhoundgrrl
I went in mid-December (and used my Groupon). I thought it was pretty good. I think we had a curry and a couple noodle dishes, plus a palata. I glanced at the Yelp reviews and don't recall hearing any microwaves at all, but maybe I'm not very observant. Everything was piping hot, and the service was as nice as ever. But as Civil Bear notes, it was empty and I wouldn't be surprised if they were struggling.
re: Greyhoundgrrl
I would not go out of the way to have dinner at LY. Some of the microwaved items (or more specifically Chin Bong Jaw) were overcooked and dried left out too long at the counter. Very disappointing to hear that microwave ding and realized that was your dish. It's probably ok as a quick lunch spot (probably fresher as well) though. Portions were small. This was a few months ago.
re: Greyhoundgrrl
I go every other few weekends for breakfast. Everytime I branch out for a new dish, I'm kind of disappointed.... however the Mohinga saves the day ever time. I hear the microwave pretty frequently, but the only thing i get that uses it is the cream of wheat dessert. The best Burmese food I ever had was in the Burmese section of Taipei... all the food just sat in bowls on a table, and was heated up in a microwave, so the microwave isn't a deal breaker for me, yet.
LY still has my favorite Mohinga, out of Burma Super Star, Burmese Kitchen and Pagan. I prefer the dishes at burmese kitchen more (especially the pork with pickled mango) The owner of LY is really nice.Did you know they have 2 kitchens in the back? 1 is for making grocery store sushi. No joke.
I ate here a few weeks ago with some friends and loved it. Almost every dish was good to excellent – for me, the standouts were:
Nan Gyi Dok – thick rice noodles yellow with split pea powder, tossed with curried chicken, onion, and bean sprouts, this was much spicier than other versions I've had, and absolutely delicious. It managed to be both mellow and piquant, and dared us to finish it off when we were already distended from overenthusiastic noshing.
Chin Bong Jaw – this was the table's favorite. The sour vegetable/bamboo combo reminds me of the pickled mustard green/bamboo combination I love so much in my favorite Shanghaiese dishes, but this had an additional pungency from shrimp paste, and an addictive chili kick.
Fermented bean paste salad (I forget the Burmese name – this dish is not listed on the takeout menu posted online) – this was a small dish of mostly red onions and cilantro (I think… forgot to take pictures) and a bit of pungent fermented bean paste. The flavor was fascinating – eaten straight, the paste tasted almost exactly like anchovy paste. Mixed with the coconut rice, it took on chocolatey overtones.
Also excellent were the tender/crisp multi-layered paratha, served with a very good spicy chicken curry, the tea leaf salad (lighter, more lime-y, and less pungent than Mingalaba's, but just as good), a mellow pork and pickled mustard leaf noodle (Mandalay Myee Shay), and the weekend special crab curry (they didn't have fish head curry that day – the crab curry was delicious, but I think I'd prefer fish head curry just because I have yet to perfect the art of eating crab in a soupy red sauce without splattering everything around me).
Good but not stellar were the fried squash (expertly fried, but a little bland, and the accompanying sauce tasted suspiciously like the "duck sauce" that comes in packets with Chinese-American takeout), the fried yellow tofu (the texture and flavor actually reminded me more of socca or farinata than tofu – it was a bit bland, but the leftovers, tossed in a container with some of our spicier leftovers, absorbed the flavors beautifully. It actually improved quite a bit as leftovers), the dry-cooked green beans (the chili sauce had less shrimp-paste pungency than I like).
The only miss was the spicy fried fish – small pieces of overfried, oversalted fish, coated in chili paste.
Overall, it was a pretty incredible hit rate. I'm just now catching up with reporting on some of my meals in the past month, and re-reading this makes me think it may be time to go back soon...
Went today on a whim and tried the Shan noodles. Delicious and almost like an Asian spaghetti bolognese, good comfort food. The service was very gracious too.
Also: they have a twitter feed?! https://twitter.com/LittleYangon
re: bigwheel042
We just went tonight and also had the Shan noodles. Delicious. I thought of them as a lighter Dan Dan noodles with rice noodles. We also had the chicken coconut soup, paratha with chicken curry and tea leaf salad. Everything was great and the owner is so nice. We look forward to going back and trying other dishes, especially the lamb kebab. Also, the roasted pepper condiment they have is amazing. I hope they start selling that.
re: Kmanlove
Stopped in today and had the Kyae Oo (clear broth with rice vermicelli, pork, pork liver, pork meatballs,quail egg, mustard greens). Simpler than I expected but good.
In a disappointing turn of events, the Shan noodles I enjoyed so much are no longer on the menu. When I asked why, I was told something to the effect of "people didn't like them." Strange. My feeling was that they can't be ordered off-menu either, but I didn't push. Wonder if the sauce contained some hard-to-find ingredient that they can't get anymore.
Just went here for lunch. The people are very nice and generous. The menu has changed and has several additions/notes, but I forgot to grab the takeout menu so this is from memory. For example, the crab and fish head curries are weekend specials only. There was also a mysterious "imported black bean paste salad" that I had never seen before. And a thin catfish noodle soup with tamarind and chili. Since there was a Burmese food newbie, we kind of stuck to the basics.
Fried tofu: The tofu was very tender, which was a pleasant surprise. The peas added a yellow color and a subtle flavor. The sauce was pleasantly tangy. I think I probably would have preferred the salad as it was a touch overfried.
Fried squash: This was a freebie that she added on. In contrast to the tofu, this was perfectly fried with a crisp exterior and a melting interior. I had been expecting pumpkin or zucchini, but this was a mystery squash (not winter melon, but like winter melon) that kind of melted in your mouth.
Soup of the day: mystery vegetable with cellophane noodles. nice sweet vegetal flavor. another freebie.
Tea Leaf Salad: very good, we ended up breaking up the peppers for more spice though. as previously reported, no staleness in the pulses and a nicely funky flavor from the dressing.Mohinga: it was ok, but I think I prefer the one at Yellow Pa Taut (which had more crunch from pulses and a thicker, fishier flavor/texture)
Mandalay Myee Shay: This was very interesting. Luke warm noodle salad with thick rice noodles (Bun Bo Hue/ Laifen like) with a lot of mustard pickle and some shredded pork. Tangy and crunchy with kind of an odd temperature, it grew on us as it cooled down.Fish curry--red and oily, flavorful without being spicy, really excellent with rice. Would love to come on the weekend and check out the special curries.
Highly recommended!

Thanks for the rec. Yes, this is a lovely place, and very convenient (it's 2 minutes off 280 at the old Top of the Hill Daly City near Westlake).
I had a decent ginger salad and Mandalay Myee Shay, an otherwise bland noodle dish served warm (not hot) with roast pork and pickles. The roasted chile condiment and pickles made me happy, along with the warm service. I'm looking forward to exploring more of the menu.
Note that there's a Burmese fundraiser with food and dance at Little Theater in DC next Sunday, November 22. Free admission, donations are welcome.
http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_fHSIvgOvsM4...While you're in the area, drive a mile further south on Mission and check out Nora's Patisserie on San Pedro Rd. I'd had Nora's cookies and turnovers once before, but was thrilled at the variety of cookies, pumpkin muffins, candy, and gingerbread, not to mention the very reasonable prices. They will be open Thanksgiving morning until noon.

Lapsed chowhound, Spencer, who's recently returned to the Bay Area's chow paradise, and yours truly attended Tuesday's leisurely chowlunch. So, I'll call our foray a scouting mission since we didn't order that much rather than a chowdown to encourage a larger future meeting of 'hounds here. Little Yangon has become my new favorite Burmese restaurant.
The restaurant's street facing is all glass, letting in natural light on this overcast day. The tidy interior is quite simple. Near the entrance are some shelves stocked with Burmese food stuffs available for retail sale. http://www.flickr.com/photos/melaniewong/4096664050/
The cold case next to it has autographs and good wishes from friends and family. http://www.flickr.com/photos/melaniewong/4096663980
An open salad station is set up in the front in what looks like a former steam table counter. Four slots hold crunchy bits, fresh garnishes, and dressing ingredients. We'd talked to one of the owners about the myriad of types of cooked, infused, and raw oils used to dress the salads. Here are photos of just part of the salad station's colorful mise en place for the huge variety of fried and raw crispy ingredients at the ready to mix to order.
http://www.flickr.com/photos/melaniewong/4096613672This was Spencer's first visit to a Burmese restaurant. His culinary preferences mostly come from living in Italy and growing up in Maryland. It was fun to share a different cuisine and to draw parallels to the familiar.
We started with the Tea leaf salad, $6.50, and on first sight, I knew we were in for a treat. Only the small, tender tea leaf shoots are used rather than the pulpy puree served at other restaurants, plus the tea leaves are in generous proportion. While the menu description mentions lettuce, this is a whole leaf of juicy Romaine under the mix serving as a base. Some cabbage slaw is blended in lightening the salad and isn't what I'd consider a filler. Slivers of tomato were carefully cut from just the outside flesh and skin without seeds or gel. The fried and roasted components were all crackly fresh. In the photo you can see the stems of the fresh green chili peppers, providing more heat that other versions. With the fried garlic, ground dried shrimp and ample dose of fish sauce, this tea leaf salad had all the spitfire and textures I love about the dish. I did ask for some additional lime to brighten the flavors to my taste.
http://www.flickr.com/photos/melaniewong/4095934223/Next up was Chin Bong Jaw, $5, sour vegetable (sorrel-like) sauteed with green chili, bamboo shoots, fish sauce, dried shrimps, ngapi, and balachaung. The menu described this as having "prawns", but that's a reference to the ground dried shrimp. When it first hit the table, Spence was taken aback at the "aroma". I suggested that he compare it to bitter greens braised with anchovy then given a shot of garum for good measure. He described it as having notes of barnyard and fire, finding the barnyard element more like the dried hay of the Rhone rather than the merde of Burgundy. This dish also has a healthy dose of red pepper flakes and fresh green chilis, starting off as moderately spicy but growing in capsicum heat with standing. Even though it doesn't look like much, basically gloppy greenish-brown mush with a bit of colorful garnish, we both found it delicious. The taste grew on Spencer, and he especially appreciated how the extra side of order of sweet and fragrant coconut rice balanced the spicy/sour/bitter/barnyard/garlicky/salty/iron/grassy elements perfectly.
When I tried to order this, the owner asked if I'd had it before. The owner checked back more than once to see if it was okay, and seemed surprised by how much both of us liked it. Later she mentioned that she's been careful to ask customers if they know this dish, as it seems to be an acquired taste. I asked whether we could see the uncooked vegetable to know what it looks like. She said that it has leaves like maple. The kitchen is using frozen now, as the season has passed. She buys it at the Alemany Farmers Market (and most of the other produce) during the summer and freezes as much as possible. Once the current supply is gone, that's it until next year.
http://www.flickr.com/photos/melaniewong/4096663978/I also liked the sour vegetable scooped on a wedge of the excellent Palata. Not itemized on the menu, I ordered the flatbread plain without a side of curry, $3. Golden brown, flaky, crisp . . . beautiful job. Spence mused that he'd like to eat the paratha with caviar and crème fraiche. He also had an idea for making a dessert with mascarpone and fruit. The owner said she likes hers with sweetened condensed milk.
http://www.flickr.com/photos/melaniewong/4096663976Then my favorite Burmese standard, Ohn Noh Kaw Swe, $6.50, coconut chicken noodle soup, thick with yellow peas and bits of succulent dark meat. It wasn't ready yet when we ordered and the owner tried to get me switch to the mohinga. But we were willing to wait, and I'm glad we did, even though we got apologies that this was the "rushed" version. No apologies needed, we were very happy with the dish. Chicken-y, mild and with a comforting texture and soft noodles, the ohn noh kaw swe inspired Spencer to remark that he didn't deserve this bowl because he wasn't sick at home in bed. Later he pronounced it "Burmese carbonara".
The red onion and cilantro garnishes were dewy fresh and joined with two kinds of crunchy crackers and half an egg on top of the soup. One of the ladies who does not speak much English asked if we wanted "more soup". I didn't understand this as an offer to add more stock to our bowl, and wish we had. Be sure to ask for more to thin out the thick base. I also needed to add a squirt of lime juice. Our take-out container was topped off with another ladle.
http://www.flickr.com/photos/melaniewong/4096663966/I asked about other vegetables such as okra or water spinach. The owner said that there's usually some available in the kitchen depending on the season. The water spinach (kangkung) can be served in hot and sour soup or stir-fried with balachaung.
Spencer shot this last photo of our meal with my camera. Since everything was new to him, he jotted down the names of the dishes on the paper-topped table. Here's his cheat sheet and primer for Burmese food.
You can see the various chili peppers in the condiment dish that he had removed from his servings. The kitchen isn't shy with chilis.Chatting with the owners, we learned that Daly City has a high concentration of Burmese people. This shows in the cooking style, geared toward serving the ethnic community and not watered down. Unlike the other Burmese restaurants, the owners of Little Yangon are not ethnic Chinese and the menu is strictly Burmese dishes. This is a terrific new addition to the Burmese scene, and I thank "outrig8" for the head's up.

I'm headed there for lunch today (tues nov 10) around 11:45/noonish. If anyone would like to meet up and share more dishes, drop me an email (address on MyChow page).
This is a cash only place.
re: Melanie Wong
We ate a nice meal here Saturday night. it's quite a bare-bones place, but with quite reasonable prices and very friendly service.
We had
Tea Leaf Salad
Chicken Curry
Chicken Fried Rice (for our nine year old son)
Fried Banana with mango ice cream.All was very good. This is not as fancy as say, Burma Superstar, but very nice, unpretentious fresh tastes in all the dishes. I even liked my son's fried rice! It reminded me of the one at Lotus Garden.
These dishes were enough for the three of us, but when we return we would probably order one more dish.
I don't believe they sell beer/wine, and as mentioned it's cash only. The room has basic tables and bright overhead lighting, but it's very clean and well kept.

re: Calvinist
I loved the lady owners here and their cooking! They said they opened in Daly City because it has a big concentration of Burmese people, who knew? I'll have notes soon from our lunch. If anyone's going today, I hope we'll hear about the homemade tofu, made of yellow pea powder. Didn't notice it on the menu yesterday and missed ordering it.
The restaurant is near the corner of Hillcrest Dr, the other end of the block is John Daly Blvd, the Top of the Hill nabe. It's just a few blocks over the SF city line for those who have a hard time leaving the boundaries of San Francisco. The 49 bus goes right by and BART is walking distance.
re: bigwheel042
Thanks for the correction. I thought I saw a routing for the 49 bus when I checked yesterday, but I can't reproduce it now. The 14 bus runs from Mission & 4th to the restaurant. Daly City BART is 0.4 miles away according to google.
I hope you'll have a chance to try it. When one of the owners asked me about my interest in Burmese food, I mentioned that I'd been to an event at the temple in Half Moon Bay. She said that the original temple had been in Daly City until enough money was raised to purchase and build on the HMB site. I also got an update on the sweet matron who had fed me so well in the temple kitchen. She has retired to Los Angeles. It was like catching up with family.
Please indicate where this is located, address would be nice, but general area is good too!
I went over immediately after reading this. I was by myself, so i only got a bowl of Mohinga, a grass jelly drink and asked for 1 paratha.
Definitely my new favorite Mohinga in the sf area. I like it thick, and thats how they served it.
The woman was super nice. Asking if i needed extra broth to thin out the soup, and explaining that they used banana stem(?) that they get from a tree in their back yard.
i can't wait to go back with more people to try other menu items.

Children need to read books every day so they can keep and strengthen all the literacy skills they learned during the previous school year. If children don't read over the summer, they can experience "summer reading loss" and start the next school year already behind where they should be!
The good news is that reading over the summer—even if it's only six books!—can prevent summer reading loss! You can help your child read and learn throughout the summer with a few simple helps:
A message from the State Superintendent, Dr. Martell Menlove, about reading and families:
The concept of "practice makes perfect" is definitely true in many academic areas, including reading. We know that students who read when not in school, especially during the summer months when school is not in session, are better readers than those who do not read during these times. We also know that students who do not read over the summer often return to school having lost skills they had previously mastered.
Summer is a great time to establish family reading habits. I remember one summer when our family read The Great Brain series as a family. I often found our older children reading to our younger children and all of our children requesting daily that I read to them. I still have my copy of Jack London's Call of the Wild that I believe I received for my 10th birthday. I remember sleeping in a tent in our back yard and reading Call of the Wild by the light of a flashlight. I must admit that my imagination got the best of me and I spent the remainder of the night in the house with all the doors and windows securely closed.

Update:Advocate says Tutwiler Report "Wakes People Up" to Reality at Prison An attorney for inmates says a recently released Federal Justice Department report, reveals a number of problems at Tutwiler Prison in Wetumpka. Bryan Stevenson of the Montgomery-based Equal Justice Initiative says the study "wakes people up" to what's going on at Alabama's prison for women. The organization filed complaints leading to the federal report. The report showed officials in Tutwiler have not correctly treated some complaints of sexual abuse, but Alabama Prison Commissioner Kim Thomas disagrees with the Equal Justice Initiative. Thomas says Tutwiler officials do take aggressive actions against prison abuse, including rape, harrasment, and sexual assault, but would not explain how employees have been fired or prosecuted in connection with sexual assaults. |

TEAMS: Indianapolis Colts
The Colts have finalized (for now) their 53-man roster, after making their final cuts and waiver claims.
Yesterday, I took a look at the final group of young men that make up the current roster on offense. Today, we'll look at the players that will comprise the defensive side of the roster.
Defensive End
Starters: Cory Redding, Fili Moala
Key Reserves: Ricardo Mathews, Drake Nevis
The defensive end position is going to be one of the more frustrating units of the season, as their inconsistencies will likely be what determines the effectiveness of the run defense. Redding is the one accomplished, proven starter on the roster, but could be slowed down by age (31) and injuries (has been sidelined in the preseason).
Of the other three, Moala has the most experience, but Drake Nevis has the most explosive potential. Nevis had a promising start last season, but was only able to play in five games. This preseason, Nevis has had 13 tackles and two sacks (in limited time in fou...
