Abstract: We introduce the Frobenius–Schur indicator for categories with duality to give a category-theoretical understanding of various generalizations of the Frobenius–Schur theorem including that for semisimple quasi-Hopf algebras, weak Hopf C*-algebras and association schemes. Our framework also clarifies a mechanism of how the "twisted" theory arises from the ordinary case. As a demonstration, we establish twisted versions of the Frobenius–Schur theorem for various algebraic objects. We also give several applications to the quantum SL2.

SwissStop FlashPro Yellow King Brake Pads - Set of 4 $50.00
SwissStop Yellow. That's the answer we give when asked about brake pads for carbon rimmed wheels. And it's no secret that wheel manufacturers like Mavic choose SwissStop because they make the best carbon-specific brake pads on the market. In fact, SwissStop Yellow King pads come with Mavic's Carbone Ultimate as standard equipment.
FlashPro means one thing: These are compatible with Shimano and SRAM brake pad holders. To better the performance over the previous Flash pads, the FlashPro has deeper asymmetrical grooves and a more pronounced leading edge profile. The idea is to "squeegee" away more water to improve the wet weather performance and the deeper grooves also help give the pads better modulation. They increased the total pad depth with more material above the wear line -- good news for the carbon rim user as they generally wear pads quicker than alloy rims.
The Yellow King is specifically made for use with carbon fiber rims. They provide unparalleled stopping power in both wet and dry conditions. They give you high durability, quiet braking, and perhaps best of all, excellent stopping power with aluminum rims as well. SwissStop makes it clear that there's no need to swap out pads from carbon-specific to non if you switch wheels from your carbon race-day gems to your aluminum training set. However, we'd recommend always checking your pads and removing aluminum debris before installing your carbon race-day wheels. Any metal flakes embedded in the pads could be disastrous for your composite rims!
SwissStop FlashPro Yellow King brake pads come as a full set. One order gets you 4 pads total -- enough for one bike.

These have held up very well over two seasons of cyclocross. They are very predictable in any conditions.

The pads work great, they are amazing at what they were designed to do, however, to the excessive brake rider, I would recommend sticking to cork, these pads do not dissipate heat the way cork does and under extreme braking conditions will overheat the carbon braking surface. Buy these brakes if you know and are conscious of this fact, If you tend to forget about the limitations of your wheels, then save yourself the trouble of going thru a lengthy warranty process and simply stick to cork.

Rocketing down the hill, approaching a sharp 180 degree off-camber left, your fingers tap the hoods of the brakes.
You're cautious, but then again you don't want to lose too much speed on that turn.
The brake pad fade which used to occur is still in your mind. The painful audible memory of screeching pads all too familiar.
But NO longer.
It's like butter. The SwissStop pads hold onto the carbon rims like any man would hold onto a beautiful redhead. You hold her tightly... never wanting to let go, but you do.... In the back of your mind you think about her, your heart quickens knowing you'll get to hold her again as the next turn approaches.
These SwissStop Yellow brakes pads are phenomenal. The braking control you can exhibit on carbon rims is unlike any thing I've ever felt before.

Mokate Try Part of Being in the Moment |
National Teams - USA Men |
When Taylor Mokate had his first opportunity to do it, he made a mistake, dropping a pass for the USA 7s team at the Hong Kong 7s. But when you fail you learn, and Mokate made no mistake last week, as he was in support twice on a single movement to eventually score the best try of the weekend to help the Eagles beat Georgia 36-20. Of the 15 starters against Georgia and Italy (the same 15), eight went through the USA age-grade program, with three, Mike Petri, Scott LaValla, and James Paterson, captaining the U19s or U20s. |

Google recently introduced Business Photos, which uses the same tech as Street View, and allows shops, restaurants and other businesses to provide virtual tours of their premises.
These tours are then shown in Google Maps and local results, providing offline businesses with an opportunity to drive footfall into their locations.
I'll look at how business can use these photos to drive footfall, and improve CTR, while I've also been asking Charles Mansfield-Osborne of StreetVisit, one of Google's 'Trusted Photographers', about the scheme.

Hot answers tagged betting
Be careful. Usually tinkering with houserules, if you overlook something, you can make it up on the spot. If there is real money at stake, suddenly the game becomes much more serious and the ability to quickly tweak something which might be in one player's favor or another is gone.
From your initial idea, I see several dramatic flaws. First is that Risk is ...
This question was discussed in this BGG thread.
The only answer I found at all convincing was: in a 3-player game, if your hand is marginal, the big bet may convince your opponents to put their own interests aside and work together to set you. If you make a small bet on a similar hand, your opponents might play less aggressively to defeat you--each trying ...
I would recommand another approach:
Each player can buy treasury bonds for every country, you play with the countries in which you have a majority of bonds. You can still attack your ennemy, but when you do that, remember that someday that country you weaken can be yours because you have more treasury bonds that the other players.
But wait! Don't bother ...

Ok, so me and wife are soon moving in to our first house and there are so many upgrades to be done, but we are starting with our kitchen. First thing will be cabinets and as our budget is pretty tight, I'll be working with what I have pretty much.Right now the cabinets are dark wood with old outdated hardware. Im planning on adding decorative molding to cabinet faces, new knobs/pulls, painting the cabinets an off white or creamy white and adding dark glaze especially in the molding areas to give it that rustic look or the popular look nowadays. Im looking for advice or a DIY on how do this step by step, I need any and all info/advice to make sure I do this the right way. What paint (valspar) , what glaze color? I really have no idea how to go about this, but am good at diy projects and feel confident I can do it. THANKS!
Hi brodywms,
Here are some links which you might find helpful...
This method can also apply for kitchen cabinets...
Hi brodywms! Welcome. You could Google "glazing kitchen cabinets" Lots of info there.
You will have to really wash down and probably give a quick sand to your present cabinets. Using TSP is recommended. Cabinets get a build up of grease etc that you can't always see so it is very important. When you add the mouldings make sure that you double check the opening and closing of doors and drawers vs. hinges to make sure you don't have any problems.
They will need a good primer. I would recommend two coats of primer.
They will then require at least two coats of paint in your desired colour.
If you are going to put a glaze on them I would suggest a white that could complement the glaze. Look at some of the Benjamin Moore Historical Collection colours. It is best to take off all the doors and lay them flat, as well as pull out all the drawers and stand them up so they are flat.
I would really recommend that you go to a good paint store and ask for advice. You will need to decide if you want to use latex paint or oil paint.
Oil paint is not going to be on the market for much longer so you may want to just go with a good quality latex.
I had my cupboards done about four years ago and they are still in excellent shape. Good luck and welcome to the forum and congrats on your first house.

Friday, Oct. 21, through Sunday, Oct. 23, dozens will don hard hats to visit Echoview Fiber Mill as builders work towards completion. These guests will be among the first visitors to tour the construction of the nearly completed fiber mill, which will have the capability of processing wool, mohair, alpaca and other exotic fibers. Tours will be held Friday and Saturday at 11:30 a.m. and 3:30 p.m., and Sunday at 11:30 a.m.
Establishing a fiber mill in this area will be a step towards bringing textile processing back to North Carolina. The Carolinas were once considered a textile hub from the 1920s through much of the 20th century. But free trade regulations — combined with cheaper prices in developing countries — led to a decline in regional textile business, as local companies could no longer compete with global textile production. Echoview's new fiber mill will join a growing movement to bring textile production back to the Southern Appalachian region.
"Supporting the region's textile industry in a sustainable, community-focused way is a top priority as we move forward," says Gwen Perkins, mill manager at Echoview. "At the same time, the heart of our mission is working with local farmers and breeders, as well as local artisans and crafters."
In addition to producing quality fiber products that will make North Carolina a leader in textiles once again, the Echoview Fiber Mill will serve as a model of sustainable industry. Mill designers and builders are working towards LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) certification, which requires energy efficient components, sustainably-harvested resources, eco-friendly materials, clean construction techniques and more. In addition, once the mill is built, efficient technology and building systems will help save energy and lighten our footprint on the local environment every day.
"Traditionally, we work to re-purpose unoccupied textile facilities to serve a variety of uses. This rare opportunity to assist in the creation of a progressive and sustainable textile model rooted in a North Carolina tradition — while simultaneously representing Julie Jensen's exemplary vision for the future of this industry — is a monumental privilege." — Clearscapes Art + Architecture
About Echoview Fiber Mill
Located in Weaverville, N.C., Echoview Fiber Mill is adjacent to Echoview Farm, a 75-acre working farm committed to sustainable agriculture. When the Echoview Fiber Mill opens in late 2011, it will be a full-service, energy efficient fiber mill equipped with top-of-the-line custom equipment capable of processing wool, mohair, alpaca and other exotic fibers. Bringing together individuals from across the region, Echoview Fiber Mill will serve as a crossroads for industry and community, with a strong commitment to sustainable principles and operations.

Garden of Life Organic Perfect Food® Whole Food Green Bars Red Raspberry -- 12 Bars
excellent snack
This is a great snack. tasty, nutritious and vegan
March 26, 2013
This little bar packs a punch! Great tasting, very filling and the ingredient list is incredible. We've used them as a meal replacement and for snacks. Really glad we found these gems.
July 7, 2012
Not what I expected
Read the reviews and anticipated a great, new healthy alternative for myself and my family. Instead, found these bars inedible. I couldn't even give them away! I gave 2 stars just for the nutritional content, but sadly had to return because of the vile taste
May 25, 2012
Strong (awful) taste
Sorry folks, I could not even choke down one of these. I bought them based on the reviews - big mistake. I'm sure it's healthy stuff but tolerating the taste/texture was not do-able for me. I'm going to try and incorporate them into a muffin recipe so as not to waste my $30. If that doesn't work - into the trash they go.
April 27, 2012
great flavor
A little pricey but pleased that Vitacost has them cheaper by the box than what I can get them individually at our health store. Full of flavor! By far the best we have tasted so far. My husband is a "meat and potato" guy who had to switch to a raw diet. This bar has definitely eased the transition.

Yeah, this is a great thread.
Thanks Brett...
I think this is probably a good time to clarify 'document' can refer to a page or collection of pages, and could easily be both, imo. EG A page is an individual document and can be evaluated individually, but a site (or imo, even a 'section' of a site) is also a document and can be evaluated as collective whole.
I would guess you're right about classifications not happening as often tedster and, of course, if only a portion of pages (sub-documents?) are changed you could end up with the same overall evaluation of the document (site) as a whole, even though there have been changes to a portion of it.
Plus, if it's 'happy user' based as Brett has outlined, imo, there would have to be time to build a 'new history of happy users' before an override of the previous pattern would kick in for a site's or page's rankings.

WOW, really now the refs are gonna add to this. Come on man

Moo-ar Inflation
Submitted by Tyler Durden on 01/22/2014 14:53 -0400With the world awash in liquidity and yet every one of the world's leaders spreading the "ogre of deflation" myth to ensure the administration of moar free money; we thought it interesting that with government identified inflation statistics entirely benign that the prices of US cattle and milk have reached record highs (and show no sign of stopping as Cattle is limit-up today again). The rise has been almost non-stop beginning in early 2009... now what else began to rise in an almost straight line then?

Venezuela About To Run Out Of Food Despite Fresh All Time High In Its Stock Market
Submitted by Tyler Durden on 01/22/2014 11:28 -0400Venezuela can be proud: while the US stock market has gone exactly nowhere in 2014, the Caracas stock exchange of the socialist paradise has continued kicking ass and taking names, just today printing a fresh all time high. However, as everyone knows, there are trade offs to soaring stock markets in all socialist countries, be they paradises or not. By now everyone knows that Venezuela has had a rather systemic issue when it comes to procuring toilet paper, and from what we understand, the local population is still forced at times to wipe with stock certificates. Alas, things are about to get worse. As a result of Maduro's recent policies which have Lenin, Stalin and Engels positive beaming from the grave, the country may soon add another shortage to its growing list of daily product in short, or no, supply. Food.

Verizon Details How It Spied On Its Customers In 2013
Submitted by Tyler Durden on 01/22/2014 12:47 -0400While Edward Snowden's legacy has already been felt in official, government circle most recently with Obama's amusing, if completely meaningless, theatrical reformation of the NSA (so wait, the Utah's superstasi spy center is now closed, right?), it is now the private sector's turn. Moments ago, Verizon - in what is hopefully the first such action of many - provided an extensive "Transparency Report" in which it disclosed the "number of subpoenas, orders, and warrants we received from law enforcement in the United States last year. We also received emergency requests and National Security Letters. The vast majority of these various types of demands relate to our consumer customers; we receive relatively few demands regarding our enterprise customers." So regular retail customers are being actively spied on, but corporations are safe. Good to know.

Thai CDS Rise To One Year Highs After Pro-Government Faction Leader Shot
Submitted by Tyler Durden on 01/22/2014 10:52 -0400Following last night's implementation of emergency rule in Thailand for a period of 60 days, where the ongoing clashes between protesters and the government mean the economy is likely set to grind to a halt at least judging by the constant downward revisions in the country's GDP, the default risk of Thailand just jumped to a fresh one year high, rising to 159 bps, or double where it was in May of this year (but still well below the 240bps hit at the peak of the European crisis in September 2011). However, since tensions do not appear to be getting resolved, expect this particular CDS to continue drifting higher, especially following news that the Thai leader of a pro-government group was shot last night.

However, one person whose opinion stands out is Elliott Management's Paul Singer. One of the most successful hedge fund managers has consistently stood against the grain of conventional wisdom over the past three decades and been handsomely reward, which is why his opinion is certainly one worth noting. Singer, together with Martin Wolf and several other panelists will be speaking at 45 minutes past the hour on a panel discussing one of the most pressing topics nearly 6 years after the Bear Stearns collapse: "Are Markets Safer Now."

BOJ Approaches Limit Of Its Existing Bond Buys, As Doubts Spread It Will Boost QE
Submitted by Tyler Durden on 01/22/2014 09:01 -0400Things in the country whose central bank assets have climbed to ¥229 trillion, or 48 percent of the nation's nominal gross domestic product, are about to get very interesting: on one hand, it will have no choice but to slow down monetization under its existing QE program. On the other, pernicious inflation is spreading doubts the BOJ will be able to boost QE in the near-future. What is a country stuck in a vortex between deflation and runaway inflation to do? "It may be too late to prevent long-term rates doing something crazy" should the BOJ hold off on tapering before inflation reaches the target, said Richard Koo, the chief economist in Tokyo at Nomura.

SOURCE California Association of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons
SACRAMENTO, Calif., Dec. 11, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- The California Association of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons announced today that starting in 2014 the innovative program that provides free health care to thousands of Californians each year will change its name to California CareForce. The program was formerly known as RAM California, the California affiliate of Remote Area Medical.
The new organization will allow volunteers to focus exclusively on providing vital services to people in California. The new website at www.CaliforniaCareForce.org has more information about the organization, upcoming events, and how to get involved.
"California CareForce will continue to provide the highest quality in medical, dental, and vision care to residents all over California," said Pam Congdon, Executive Director of the California Association of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons and President of California CareForce. "With healthcare policies changing and many people still struggling financially, California CareForce will ensure as many people as possible get the services they need."
California CareForce will continue the large-scale, four-day clinics that it is most known for, but will also expand its services utilizing mobile equipment to provide care on a smaller scale.
California CareForce, in conjunction with Goldenvoice, has their first clinic set for April 3-6, 2014 in Coachella Valley. They plan to continue holding clinics all over California including Oakland, Sacramento, Los Angeles, and Coachella Valley among others. The most recent clinic in Coachella Valley was estimated to have provided almost 3,000 patients over a million dollars in free health care services.
California CareForce is a 501(c)(3) non-profit dedicated to providing free health, dental, and vision services to residents all over California. California CareForce partners with individual volunteers, professional organizations, universities, and businesses with the mission of ensuring a healthy California for all people regardless of income, status, or education.

I buy these soups mainly for my elderly Mother for ease of eating but find I like them very much myself.
I have found this soup to be very hearty with great flavor. It beats any other brand that I have tried... they (others) usually are mostly broth with little substance.
Other soups are: Amy's French Country Vegetable; Amy's Pasta & 3 Bean; Rustic Italian Vegetable; *Fire Roasted* Southwestern Vegetable; Lentil Vegetable; Chili *Medium* with Vegetables; Tuscan Bean & Rice

Great Purchase
I love this soup great homemade flavor.

I was surprised on the negative reviews, since this has been one of my favorite soups (for a canned soup) for a long time. Had to write a review so vitacost doesn't stop carrying it!! It's so light-tasting and wonderful quick fare to add veggies or rice to after work. Easy to turn into a healthy meal.

Since its beginnings in the late 1880s, the Museum has depended on volunteer help for many of its projects and much of its development. Today, more than 250 volunteers participate regularly, making important contributions to the public and research areas of the Museum. Some volunteers come in daily, and many have served for 20, 25, and even 30 years!
For most volunteer positions the only requirement is an interest in archaeology, anthropology, and world cultures, a love of learning, and a willingness to make a regular commitment. Applicants with special skills and training may be assigned to areas that require specific knowledge and work experience.
Time Commitment
There are no specified days or hours for work. Volunteer time is based on the availibility of the volunteers and the needs of the particular area. Two to four hours, one or two days per week, are usual.
Volunteer Benefits
Volunteers receive free permit parking and a discount on purchases made in the Museum's Main Shop and Pyramid Shop. Volunteers are encouraged to join the Museum as members, and new volunteers recieve a 10% discount on individual or family membership. An annual all-volunteer party is a fun way to meet and socialize with other volunteers who work throughout the Museum.
To Volunteer Contact:
Kelley Hirsch, Programs Assistant
(215) 746-6774
The Archives at the Penn Museum is a repository for 2,000 feet of records and over 300,000 photographic and other visual materials documenting the administrative history of the Penn Museum and its archaeological and anthropological fieldwork and research. Archives Scribes assist in organizing and documenting the historical records. Previous archival experience or library training is helpful.
Curatorial Sections that employ volunteers include the African, American, Asian, Egyptian, Mediterranean, Near East, and Oceanian Sections. Volunteers help to organize and maintain the storage collections, pull objects, and check and update cards and inventory records. Responsibilities may include computer data input.
The Conservation Laboratory is responsible for the treatment, repair, and restoration of Museum collections. Volunteers who are interested in Conservation should have experience with Museum conservation processes.
Volunteer Guides (Docents)
The Volunteer Guides offer gallery tours to school and adult groups, Tuesday through Friday, with occasional weekend tours for the general public. Although it is helpful to have expertise in a particular culture or historic period, it is more important to be enthusiastic about sharing the Museum's galleries with visitors and getting them engaged with the objects on display. Training to lead a gallery tour takes between six to twelve months, depending on the amount of time a volunteer is available. Once trained, guides need to be able to devote one morning a week to leading tours. For more information or to become a Penn Museum Guide call the Docent Coordinator at (215) 898-2681.
Education Office Volunteers help the Education Department to confirm school group tours, help groups line up for orderly transfer to the respective galleries, and assist with general office duties.
Volunteers interested in working with children and the public have opportunities to volunteer with various programs, such as Cartifacts. Cartifact Volunteers engage visitors as they handle and explore reproductions of objects on display and facilitate discussion around a topic. Themes include "Daily Life in Ancient Rome," "Textiles," and "The Egyptian Afterlife."
The International Classroom (IC) provides in-house as well as outreach programs that bring cross-cultural learning experiences to young people. In addition to clerical tasks, IC Volunteers assist in developing programs and resource materials.
The Membership Office oversees the Museum's active membership program, including special lectures, reports, receptions, and dinners. Membership Volunteers assist with general clerical tasks as well as provide support for special functions when needed.
Mobile Guides

Public Information Office
The Public Information Office (PIO) works with every department and research division in the Museum to communicate to the wider world about the Penn Museum and its many activities. PIO Volunteers help with related marketing, telephone, information distribution, outreach events, website, and computer projects.
Registrar's Office
The Registrar's Office handles administrative matters relating to the Museum's collections and is the coordinating center for the Museum's collections inventory project. Registrarial Volunteers help with filing and maintaining records, sorting and numbering objects, inventory data input, and general office duties.
Special Events
The Museum sponsors a wide variety of special events for members and the public on weekends and in the evening. Special Events Volunteers help with many aspects of special events.
Visitor Services
Visitor Services Volunteers are committed to providing an enjoyable and engaging experience for visitors at the museum. Tuesdays through Sundays, they dispense knowledge throughout the galleries, and/or at a "Cartifact" program station. An enthusiasm for interaction with people of all ages is preferable.

I would just like to say that I agree 100% with phonic - getting spammed deal alerts and spamming people referral links should NOT be the way to get contest entry points - things like contributing to the site should be weighted the heaviest when deciding who deserves a prize - yes leaving some of it to chance is good and all, but we should NOT be rewarding the spammers due to their spam in any case.
It might be of interest to you guys to take a look at some of the stats regarding the giveaways.
http://slickdeals.net/f/4068242-Infographic-Slickdeals-Giveaways 'Be kinder than necessary, for everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle.'
SD FAQ Megathread - Very helpful |
While I enjoyed reading it, and found some of the information informative, it still doesn't really go into the concerns I addressed. Account age of a year and 50 posts is not really much of anything in and of itself. Don't get me wrong, it's exponentially better than one month and 0 posts, but still. I would like to know the stats based on reps, age of accounts greater then say 3 years, higher posts counts, and posting of actual deals (hot or not). |
I still dont see why you people complain.
You can play the lotter for years spend $100 a week and never win. Random Joe goes and puts $1.00 on it and wins the entire thing. You think are "entitled" to win because you play more, are more loyal. It's all luck. You can't make a 100% "Fair" contest. Take an online video game for instance. You can't give the Veterans too many "extras" because it will make the newbies never able to catch up and "win" It's a very fair contest. |
Your other points are irrelevant. If the contests at this site were simply "one entry per account", then I don't think anyone would have a problem with it. But that's not the case here. They already do weight the number of entries based on various factors including tenure, reputation (ie: helpful contributions), posts (more contributions), etc. My issue, and the issue that many other similar users have, is that the weighting is heavily in favor of new users, and the 'bonus points' given to veterans is so minor in comparison, that it's almost insulting. And contrary to the very limited stat breakdown for the overall winners of the contests, if you look at the average winner, they have contributed practically nothing to the site. Many have never posted, are new accounts, and do nothing on this site other than enter contests. They don't even vote on deals. How is rewarding them in the best interests of this site? I personally have referred close to a hundred people to this site, many of which contribute. But I refuse to spam my friends on Facebook about it. Especially since most of them already are members. I never got "credit" for them though since I say "goto slickdeals.net" not "goto my referral link http://whatever". I have no problem with some n00b winning a contest, as long as the point distribution is fair and balanced. And in order for that to happen, my feeling is that the people who contribute to this site should be acknowledged (in a meaningful way). That doesn't mean a new user can't win, it just means that a veteran user is more likely to win. And that, in my opinion, is fair. I'm sure that when (and IF) you've been here longer than one month, have posted more than 12 times, and have contributed enough to get more than zero rep points, you will agree. |
It's just a website. Care more for real life crap.
And I'll be here a while But very rarely post deals simply because I have little time to look, and when I do the posts are already created. But I contributed once already at least. But yea....don't waste time complaining over a free website for free things....kinda silly.... |
I've been here for years, much longer than many of you. I'm not that active, but I post every so often if I have something to contribute to a thread. Usually if I find a deal, it's already up here.
I enter contests for prizes I'd like to win. Who wouldn't want free stuff? Far too much butthurt and complaining by people in this thread. Seniority shouldn't mean that you automatically win, otherwise people wouldn't contribute much for years. I don't mind the deal alerts, it's usually one email per day and I don't even have to read it. Bottom line, if it's your time to win, congrats. This space for rent

As of December 1, 2009 | » Read the accompanying report: "FREELANCERS UNDER FIRE"
New York, September 16, 2009—As
Muslims worldwide prepare to celebrate the end of the holy month of Ramadan, a time
of compassion and forgiveness, the Committee to Protect Journalists today called
on the Iranian authorities to release journalists who are being held behind
Read the accompanying report: "Online and in jail"
New York, September 5, 2008--Prosecutors should drop all charges against Iranian journalist Adnan Hassanpour, whose death sentence was overturned Thursday, the Committee to Protect Journalists said today.
A court of appeal overturned the sentence against Adnan Hassanpour, a journalist and former editor for the now-defunct Kurdish-Persian weekly Aso in Iran's northwestern province of Kurdistan, local journalists told CPJ. He will face a new trial on charges of "working for outlawed parties" and espionage, a local journalist told CPJ. Salih Nikbakht, Hassanpour's lawyer, confirmed the new charges to BBC Persian on Wednesday.
New York, August 12, 2008--The Committee to Protect Journalists calls on Iranian authorities to make public any charges against a Kurdish journalist and human rights activist who they have held for more than two weeks, or release him immediately.

It's Friday night in the 'burbs, and the long wait for tables at places like Bertucci's, Hightopps, and The Corner Stable is just beginning. But we're headed to a new restaurant, an unknown, in an unremarkable shopping center off Padonia Road in Lutherville. And we're fighting gnarled traffic on York Road—and not liking the constant honking and lane changing. We only hope the trip to Restaurant Sabor is worth the drive.
The menu sounded promising online and the chef/owner, Rodolfo "Roddy" Domacassé, has proven himself at Brasserie Tatin, Linwoods, and other fine-dining spots. Still, the restaurant is a storefront. Its neighbors are a cleaners and grocery store. We were not getting our expectations up. But perhaps we should have.
After arriving, we were seated only a few minutes before our eager, prep-boy waiter brought us an amuse-bouche—crisp, batter-coated crawfish. This gift from the chef set the pace for the rest of the appealing meal. The only thing you have to do is settle in on the comfy seating and wait for your food to arrive. You do have to plan ahead, though, if you're in the mood for something alcoholic. We had forgotten the restaurant is BYOB, so we came empty-handed. But it's not a problem since there is a wine and spirits shop nearby. Although there is a $5 corkage fee per table, it covers all your bottles, no matter how many you want opened.
We were a little worried for the restaurant's welfare in the beginning of the evening because there were so many empty tables. Soon enough, the place was properly packed for a weekend night, and people were even waiting in the tiny vestibule. Sabor, which means "flavor" in Spanish, has a welcoming vibe, which jibes with Domacassé's mission to create a neighborhood spot. The dining room décor—by the always creative Rita St. Clair—has the feel of a cozy cottage with rich, wood tones, floral fabrics, and an angular ceiling in the American Arts and Crafts tradition. There's also a bright, open kitchen, giving it an appropriate modern-day flourish. So much for us almost dismissing it as just a storefront!
Sabor's humble plate-glass exterior also doesn't prepare you for the kitchen's attentiveness to fresh ingredients and classic preparations. The escargot vol-au-vent was perfectly executed with plump snails in a luscious brown broth redolent of sweet onions and covered with a thin, flaky pastry.
But the chef isn't all about Gallic influences—as the restaurant's name suggests, he also borrows from his Latin American heritage with dishes like fried oysters with barbacoa sauce. This pretty appetizer pairs golden oysters with a handful of soft baby lettuces and drizzles of barbacoa, a piquant barbecue sauce. We liked the delicate oysters but could have done with less breading, which masked, instead of enhanced, the flavor. But what we really craved was more of the excellent, tangy barbacoa for the crunchy morsels.
While we relished our entrees—a half roasted chicken and grilled salmon—two of the side dishes truly caught our fancy—the fries and spaghetti-squash noodles. They sound ordinary, right? Not so. What appeared to be typical french fries turned into a food addiction with the sprinkling of earthy truffle salt (from black truffles, our server told us). It's the kind of flavor surprise that immediately makes you take notice. It's subtle, yet pervasive—and so much better than truffle oil, which can quickly overpower foods, turning them from "wow" to "ew." The fries are called "papitas fritas" on the menu, which, translated, is Spanglish for "all is good." We agree.
But the spaghetti squash was the showstopper. Can ordinary vegetable strands create this kind of intense emotion? Absolutely. In fact, one of our diners went so far as to call them "orgasmic." And we had to smile contentedly in agreement as we devoured another bite. These tender squash noodles were so decadent with their buttery coating and wonderful mouth feel that all you can do is succumb to their wiles.
The rest of the accompaniments were impressive, too: real baby carrots; tiny, caramelized Brussels sprouts; and an endearing sweet potato beignet, the size of a delicate quail egg. The roasted chicken, tasting of thyme infused under its skin, was tender and homey, and the salmon had the pedigree of a fish raised in the wild. Its mojo (citrusy vinaigrette) topping, though, was too understated.
Desserts are house-made, and the tres leches cake, a traditional Mexican finale, is about as real as it gets with a moist white cake, whipped-cream frosting, and maraschino cherries. But Bubsy's orange cake, which our waiter described as a "lighter" dessert, was the most impressive finish. First, you're surprised that the "cake" is actually three mini-Bundt-size cakes, and then you're entranced by the texture, awash with the perfume of tropical orange groves.
At lunch, the restaurant attracts a Mays Chapel crowd—retiree couples and moms in between carpools to private schools—who are scattered amid the tables and banquettes lining the walls. We were treated to another fresh-faced, mop-topped waiter, who was just as helpful as our dinner server.
There's the usual midday lineup on the menu—soups, salads, burgers, a steak sandwich, grilled chicken. There's also a quiche and an omelet of the day. We opted for a seafood wrap. It was smaller than we anticipated but packed with fresh chunks of shrimp, scallops, and lump crab in a thin, mayonnaisey-type dressing with a pleasant, sweet note of pineapple juice.
Restaurant Sabor, with its earnest staff, serene interior, and stellar food, seems to ascribe to the old vaudeville adage, "Always leave them wanting more." Indeed.
