LOUISVILLE, Ky. (BP) -- In 1631, something scandalous happened: Someone printed a Bible, soon called "The Wicked Bible," that translated the seventh commandment of Exodus 20:14 as "Thou shalt commit adultery." One can imagine the scandal this caused in 17th-century England. It resulted in huge fines, mortified archbishops, and whispered conversations. The loss of just one word from a careful biblical translation caused a national uproar.
The corruption of the biblical text continues apace in our day, albeit on a far more drastic scale. Recently, a group of homosexual activists released the "Queen James Bible," a version of Scripture that is "gay-friendly." The translation philosophy is muddled in thought but clear in intent: As the editors plainly state, "We edited the Bible to prevent homophobic interpretations." This is not an objective project; it is an exercise in theological airbrushing.
First, the editors assert that "The Bible says nothing about homosexuality. However, there might be no other argument in contemporary faith as heated as what the Bible is interpreted to say about homosexuality." This is simply wrong; in Romans 1:26-28, the Apostle Paul declares in the original Greek that all who participate in homosexual activity face God's condemnation for sin. Leviticus 20:13, furthermore, makes unmistakably clear that a man "lying with a man" will bring fearsome consequences.
But the confusion continues. According to the editors:
"The Bible is the word of God translated by man. This (saying nothing countless translations and the evolution of language itself) means the Bible can be interpreted in different ways, leading to what we call 'interpretive ambiguity.'"
This is not nearly as clever as the editors think it is. In reality, biblical translation is a lot like any other kind of interpretation, though it is produced, ideally, with maximal reverence toward God and love for humanity. If you're translating, say, Homer from the original Greek, you'll likely have a few points of difference with fellow translators; perhaps there will be some touchy spots. But when translators seek a faithful, as-literal-as-is-possible translation, their work will likely have remarkable similarities.
This isn't true only of sacred and classic texts, though. If you're trying to translate instructions from Spanish to English for that shiny new iPhone you received for Christmas, won't you naturally (without even thinking) try for as accurate a literal translation as you can get? Those who
to fry their poor iPhone: by all means, emphasize "interpretive ambiguity."
I took 10 Greek and Hebrew classes in seminary, and I assure you, translation is far less ambiguous than the "Queen James Bible" editors suggest. Most biblical texts in the original languages simply do not produce the kind of lurching uncertainty that some think they do. This is a common misconception that is easily dispelled in the opening weeks of a college or seminary class in the original languages.
In stating their translation philosophy, the editors assert that updates in language clear the way for unapologetic changes to the original text:
"Many versions of the Bible translated and published since the King James Bible have changed the language, so the precedent had been set for editing. Furthermore, both problems with editing are easily addressed by deciding to make the edits as simple as possible."
Perhaps we're expected to receive the matter of linguistic changes as a revelation (no pun intended). It is of course true that we don't speak today in "these" and "thous." Different words in our Bibles have changed over the centuries (though many have stayed the same). Updating language to use modern pronouns is a far cry, however, from excising passages from the Bible, as has happened in the QJB.
But what about the central charge against the Bible in this document? Does Scripture condone "homophobia?" No, it does not. God's Word issues threats of judgment and promises of grace to sinners of all kinds: those who get angry at their sibling (Matthew 5:22), those who cheat on their taxes and lie (Colossians 3:9), those who understand faith to mean doing good works to be saved (Ephesians 2:8-9), and many others. Every sinner -- gay, straight, Republican, Democrat, Catholic, Baptist -- must repent and be changed.
So the God of the Bible is not like the boyfriend in unnerving pop songs you hear on the radio; He is not "the one who would never ask you to change because you're so unstoppably amazing." The God of Scripture offers us love, but it is costly love, for Him and for us. In order to save sinners like you and me, God must cleanse our sin. This meets the just demands of His holiness (Romans 4-5). He accomplished this through the death of His Son, Jesus Christ (Matthew 27). Our fundamental confession to God as a broken sinner is this: "You are right, and I am wrong." God's love cost Him His Son; God's love costs us our sin.
For those drawn to a homosexual lifestyle, this means that repentance is necessary. God is not homophobic in calling gays and lesbians to repent; He is gracious in extending mercy to all of us, calling all of us to repent of our sins. We must not edit the Bible, as the editors of the QJB clearly say they have, to make it fit our lifestyle and excuse our sins. The Scripture is a friend to any sinner who receives the gift of forgiveness in Christ.
Some have done so; some have seen this. As former lesbian (and activist academic) Rosaria Champagne Butterfield has shown in her spellbinding memoir, homosexual practice does not liberate -- it enslaves. Our only hope as unrighteous people is to go to God's good Word and embrace all of its wisdom, in order that all of us -- and every aspect of our being -- might know all of his grace.

A park ranger employed by the City of Columbia was arrested and charged with second-degree assault and aggravated assault after two girls alleged the 65-year-old fondled their breasts, according to a Columbia Police Department incident report.
Edwin A. Vincent of Columbia is accused of ordering two girls to remove their clothing early Wednesday morning while he was off duty and submit to a breast exam so that he could search for lumps and acne.
After learning of the allegations, a Columbia police officer reported to Riverfront Park where Vincent was on duty. Vincent agreed to report to the police department to discuss the alleged incidents.
Once at the department, Vincent admitted to touching the breasts of the girls to check for acne, the report states.
Vincent was arrested and transported to the Alvin S. Glenn Detention Center. He eventually left the jail on a $5,000 surety bond.
City officials say Vincent is on investigatory leave, pending the outcome of this

Parking Toys
Parking Toys is one of Bangkok's best venues for live music, and hosts an eclectic revolving cast of fun bands ranging in genre from rockabilly to electro-funk jam acts.
Parking Toys is one of Bangkok's best venues for live music, and hosts an eclectic revolving cast of fun bands ranging in genre from rockabilly to electro-funk jam acts.
This basement pub, one of our fave destinations in Bangkok for live music, hosts a nightly revolving cast of bands for an almost exclusively Thai crowd – most of whom will end the night dancing on the tables. Brick Bar can get infamously packed, so be sure to get there early. Fridays and Saturdays command an 150B entry fee.
Down a dark driveway near Kad Suan Kaew, this old wooden house is filled with characters and songs. Mainly acoustic bands jog from samba to pleng pêu·a chee·wít (songs for life) and the eclectic crowd bows solemnly during tear-jerking songs.
In their words, chic, retro and ready. Chic? Ummm, yes a little. Retro? Not really. Ready? Ready for what?! Well, anyway, this is a very cool, local small bar (a nice change from the sprawling bar-restaurants in these sois) that hosts local bands in the evenings on most weekend nights and sometimes during the week too.
The National Theatre holds performances of kŏhn (masked dance-drama based on stories from the Ramakian, the Thai version of the Ramayana) at 2pm on the first and second Sundays of the month from January to March and July to September, and lá·kon, Thai dance-dramas, at 2pm on the first and second Sundays of the month from April to June and October to December.
A cultural theme park, this enchanted kingdom transports visitors to a Disneyfied version of ancient Siam with a technicoloured stage show of traditional performance depicting the Lanna Kingdom, the Buddhist heaven and Thai festivals. A free shuttle-bus service is available at Thailand Cultural Centre MRT station, running every 15 minutes from 6pm to 7.45pm.
Recently relocated to something of a residential district – what do the neighbours think of the noise? Despite the move, the bar's die-hard regulars still file in to witness a revolving cast of jazz, blues and rock. To see what the place is really about, come on Sunday evening, when the infamous Joe's World Famous Blues Jam kicks off at 9.30.
Like taking a time machine back to the previous century, Hollywood is a holdover from the days when a night out in Bangkok meant corny live stage shows, wiggling around the whiskey-set table and neon, neon, neon. As is the case with many of its counterparts, you'll need to purchase a bottle of whiskey at the door to gain entry.
At the north end of Chaweng, Coco Blues reinterprets New Orleans-style hedonism for Samui. The multi-storey bar and restaurant is best known for its live music (every night, except Tuesday, at 9pm) ranging from jazz to blues to cover tunes. For visual entertainment, check out the street-side bar overlooking Chaweng's manic traffic.
It is hard to classify Sangdee: art gallery, live music club, bar and cafe. It isn't one thing, it is many, but mainly it is a cool hang-out for Chiang Mai's creative set. The week's roster features a rotating menu of live music and art exhibits, including a Thai country-and-western band and the ever-popular open-mic nights.
A place for art, music, socialising, drinking and, most importantly, the Sunday Art Jam when the island's talented musicians perform and the vibe is like a big, fun party at someone's house (in fact the venue is part of owner's Denny and Lisa's house). The first chords are strummed at 7.30pm, but come by any time.
Tucked into a small corner of Karon Plaza is this dive courtyard bar furnished with timber tables, and decorated with beads, shells and coral. It's the perfect venue for a reggae band, which it hosts every Sunday night. It also fires up the fish grill. Shirts and shoes optional. Live music starts at 9.30pm.

Give yourself the gift of emotional health
It's totally normal to get frazzled if the turkey burns or Fido eats the gift-wrap, but feeling overwhelmed by fatigue, irritability or sadness are not the best ways to spend "the most wonderful time of the year."
"Without a doubt, more people carry stress during the holidays," explains Hanish Sethi, M.D., board-certified psychiatrist with The Christ Hospital Physicians--Behavioral Health. "And if left unchecked day-to-day, these emotions can quickly morph into anxiety and depression."
Dr. Sethi sees patients who are dealing with stress stemming from some pretty common themes. Shopping, cooking, eating more and staying up later can all take a physical toll. Accommodating relatives, finding time to celebrate with friends and still caring for your family can backfire from fun to stressful with just one party. And, if you're too generous with your gift giving, your bills could stress you out well into next year.
Use these strategies to turn holiday chaos into calm:
- Be realistic. Overextending yourself can leave you exhausted, making it easy to latch on to poor lifestyle habits, like fast-food dinners and ignoring the treadmill. Prioritize professional and personal commitments and know when to say no. It will allow you to enjoy the holiday traditions and events that matter most to you.
- Make friends with winter. Cincinnati winters have much to offer. Take to the slopes for a day of skiing or snowboarding at the Perfect North Slopes, check out the ice rink at Fountain Square, attend a Bengals game, relax at a nearby water resort, or visit the Cincinnati Zoo. Staying active helps the body release pleasure-inducing endorphins and gives you a mental break from your worries.
- Accept your relationships. Family traditions can sometimes change as in-laws enter the picture and children get older. Learn to accept change by thinking of it as the chance to try something new. And remember, it's okay to count on your loved ones if you feel the holiday blues. "People suffering from stress and anxiety need more family interaction and more supportive relationships," Dr. Sethi says.
- Trade your martini for a 'mock-tini.' It's the holidays – you have permission to indulge, but be wary of alcoholic beverages if you're dealing with anxiety or stress. Alcohol is a depressant, meaning it blocks feel-good chemicals from getting to the brain. This will only complicate your emotional problems. "Alcohol use increases around the holidays, especially by those who feel anxious or depressed," says Dr. Sethi. "They then tend to lunge deeper into use of drugs and alcohol." If you need help avoiding the temptation during the holidays, attend a community support group.
- Discuss your holiday budget. Both economic uncertainties and unemployment are stressors for many Cincinnati families, but it doesn't have to worsen around the holidays. Talk to your kids early about how things will be different this year, and consider starting a low-cost or no-cost holiday tradition, like volunteering or making your own tree ornaments.
If you need advice or strategies for coping with holiday stress, make an appointment with a physician. To find a physician near you, call 877-904-4YOU or visit www.TheChristHospital.com.

In typical Valencia fashion, the Vikings girls tennis team rode an impressive performance by its doubles side to defeat Upland High 13-5 at Valencia High in the second round of the CIF-Southern Section Division III playoffs Saturday.
It's been an impressive start to the season for The Master's College men's basketball team, as the squad has opened up to a 4-0 record behind impressive shooting performances, and an even more impressive defense.
As College of the Canyons women's soccer player Casey Wesley prepared to take a free kick from 30 yards out, she had to make an important decision: Attempt to send the ball to the feet of a waiting teammate in the box - a move that had come close to working all game, but hadn't resulted in a goal - or attempt to score directly off the kick.
Canyon may have been expected to reach the top of the Foothill League, but the way it got there was anything but.
The West Ranch girls tennis team continued its dominant season with a 16-2 victory over Righetti High in the first round of the CIF-Southern Section Division III playoffs at West Ranch High on Thursday.
For one team, the season ends tonight.
By Jon Stein
West Ranch girls volleyball saw its season come to an end Tuesday night when it fell 25-19, 25-17 and 25-15 to Beckman High at Beckman in the first round of the CIF-Southern Section Division IA playoffs.
The Hart girls tennis team used a revamped lineup meant to improve its doubles side Tuesday en route to a convincing 15-3 victory over Oxnard High in the wild-card round of the CIF-Southern Section Division III playoffs at Hart High.
The Saugus Centurions nearly used every weapon in their possession on Friday night when they took on West Ranch at College of the Canyons.
The College of the Canyons football squad will try to end its four-game losing streak when it travels to Ventura College tonight at 6 p.m.
After nearly losing her first set against a Foothill League opponent all season, Golden Valley junior Rebecca Ho rebounded to dominate the final round of the Foothill League finals on Thursday at The Paseo Club.
When the Santa Clarita Valley's oldest high school football rivalry kicks off between Hart and Canyon high schools, the records are secondary to the passion.
There were few surprises during the Foothill League tennis prelims at The Paseo Club Wednesday, where the league's top girls tennis players met for a right to enter the CIF-Southern Section Individual Playoffs.
College of the Canyons men's soccer goalie Alex Burkevics made fives saves to keep the Cougars close in their match with Santa Barbara City College on Tuesday afternoon at COC, but a second-half goal by the Vaqueros propelled Santa Barbara to a 1-0 victory.

A series of How To's and Technology 101 sessions will be offered as part of the conference program at LDI2008, October 24-26, 2008 in Las Vegas.There's nothing more exciting than learning "how to" from the experts, from simple solutions to challenging technical problems. For beginners and experts: it's never to late to learn how to succeed!
Open to full conference badge holders or those who have purchased six-pack or twelve-pack conference tickets, these sessions include:
How To Transform A Venue And Wow Your Audience
Friday, October 24
A panel representative of the industry's leading corporate event professionals shares methods for venue transformation. Actual examples with photos and drawings will be discussed along with production techniques, ideas for successful venue transformation, production costs, and strategies.
Moderator: Ben Slayter, SGA Production Staging.
Panelists include: Steve Oliker, Julio Campos, Jeremy Railton, Andrea Michaels, Fabian Yeager
How To Creatively Use LED Video and Lighting Options
Friday, October 24
Learn about the creative LED video and digital lighting products that exist, how to work with them, and how to integrate them into all types of designs. Top designers from different disciplines will explore all the varying possible applications when making their design decisions. The panel will focus on the creative use of LED technology and the creative options of different LED devices, as well as considerations of content choice, design concepts, and media selection. Moderated by Michael Eddy, Eddy Marketing. Panelists include: Marcel DeKeyzer, president, XL Video and a group of leading designers.
How To Use Cable
Friday, October 24
With a minimum of techno-speak, and lots of pictures and stories, here's a basic primer on wire and cable, multiconductor, twisted pairs and coaxial cable, where they came from, why they were invented, and how they work. Included is an overview of analog and digital signals, frequency and wavelength, resistance, capacitance, inductance, and the result of those three parameters, impedance. There's also a refresher on unbalanced and balanced lines, return loss, and skin effect. A good 'starter' presentation for the less technical audience. Taught by Steve Lampen, multimedia technology manager for Belden.

How To Use Rigging Hardware: What To Use And How To Use It Safely
Saturday, October 25
Learn to determine appropriate design factors for rigging hardware and how to calculate them from available information. The working load limit stamped on the hardware is not enough information to use it safely in our industry—the only industry that regularly hangs objects over people and then moves the objects around. Rigging expert Jay Glerum talks about how to select the right hardware and install it correctly to avoid costly and tragic accidents.
This course is eligible for ETCP rigging certification renewal credit.
How To Design Light Plots and Paperwork For Festivals
Saturday, October 25
Festival plots and paperwork often mean solving the problems of multiple
companies or events in the same venue, and stretching Lightwright and
Vectorworks to the limit. How do you prepare the plot(s) and paperwork for a venue that host multiple events with multiple designers and very short turn around periods, all in the space of one week? A panel of designers show and discuss with each other their solutions to the problems of organizing and preparing festival light plots and paperwork.
Moderator: Sam Jones, developer of AutoPlotVW and AutoPlot Tools
for SpotLight.
Panelists include: Stan Pressner, Lincoln Center Festival; Steve Shelley, Spoleto USA,
and Clifton Taylor, NYC and West Coast Fall for Dance Festivals; Christina Giannelli, Houston Ballet and Dance Salad.
Going Green 101
Saturday, October 25
The issue the industry needs to face is facing the issue. Very few people in the entertainment industry have a serious interest in "going green," or taking it on as an initiative. What can you do right now that doesn't impact your budget but has significant benefit to the environment?
Where money is spent, how can you insure the best bang for your buck? Should the industry consider regulatory standards in terms of sustainability? As energy prices continue to soar the economics make sustainability a real dollars and cents solution. Bob Usdin of Showman Fabricators moderates a lively panel discussion on the fundamentals of going green.
Touring 101
Sunday, October 26
What does a lighting director/designer need to know to succeed in the concert touring industry. Join Chris Lisle, Nashville-based LD and adjunct instructor at Belmont University, for an introduction to the trials and tribulations of the lighting pro out on the road. From various levels of touring to venue sizes, tour itineraries, day sheets, production schedules, travel, trucking and shipping to working with stagehands, terminology, load-in and load-out, and how to get and sustain the job, this session is a must—and an incredible chance to learn from an industry insider—for young lighting professionals interesting in getting into the concert touring industry. An extremely valuable three-hour session.
How To Effectively Light Fabric
Sunday, October 26
Fabric and Lighting: Design Intervention. Illuminated fabrics create effect or mood. When it comes to creating effects with lighting, not all fabrics are created equal. The quality of that effect or mood is dependent not only upon the placement of the lighting, but the texture of the fabric structures. Some fabrics allow light to illuminate space, while others enable you to project images or text. Understanding the working relationship between the two is the key to creating the right effect. How to incorporate lighting and fabric displays into various venues (theatres, concerts, tradeshows, events, etc.) Panelists include: Debra Roth, Pink Inc; Beth Weinstein, Ocean Optics; Steve Hansel Ocean Optics.

HOUSTON, Minnesota (WXOW) ---- Evelyn Cole does a lot of driving. "She takes kids to the library to make sure they have access to that. She takes kids to preschool knowing that their parents can't take time out of their jobs. She takes time out of her day to make sure they get where they need to be." Matt Schutte is a teacher at Houston Elementary. Miss Evie drives his kids to school from daycare.
Ms. Evie picks kids up at home, takes them to daycare, then to school and then back to daycare on one condition. No money. No gifts. Period.
Marissa Bailey runs a daycare in town and says if the kids don't appreciate it now, they will one day. "It shows the little kids that she's taking time out of her day, she cares about them. And I think that if they don't know that now, they will some day."
Evie says she knows the importance of an education. And she knows how hard it can be on young couples when both have to work. "My parents were uneducated. They had an 8th grade education and they did the very best they could to raise us and that's why I always knew I wanted to be a teacher."
Miss Evie is 78 now but many years ago she was a 2nd grade teacher. She's supposed to be retired. "Last year I had a morning class as well so I had morning and afternoon and at suppertime I would fall asleep at the table. It was a full day." And a busy one, zipping around town in her jumper with school house earrings to match-and a little red car that the kids call a little red school bus.
Evelyn has two daughters but no grandkids. "If we had grandchildren we wouldn't be doing all of this so clearly it's meant to be." And as for her not having any grandkids, that's not entirely true. On a routine doctor's visit, a man who lives in Houston overheard her telling the nurses that and quickly chimed in. "That's not true. Evie has about 200 grandchildren in this town."

About Anna Duyunova
Art comes from heart.
I am expressing myself through the music of colors and lines, capturing a feeling, a moment, a memory...
I like to show fleeting, spantaneous visions,containing the poetic aspects of reality.
I am painting and drawing landscapes and portraits, and creating my fantasy and allegory compositions with combination of reality and wonderland. I am glad to share my view of the world with everybody, but my works will be more appreciated by the viewer, who is looking for a piece of art which will click to his or her soul.
My works hang in private galleries and collections in Kazakhstan, Russia, Latvia, Germany, Italy, Canada, USA, and can be found in some online galleries like artmajeur or artistika.ca

Welcome to visit my page at artmajeur.com/sergey!
~ Anna Duyunova considers art a vehicle for materializing and intensifying the intimate and emotional tones that pervade an ephemeral moment in time,creating moving and memorable works. The Kazakhstani-born Canadian painter draws inspiration from her travel across the world,injecting a sense of fantasy and wonder into a variety of scenes. Her subjects are quite traditional,ranging from landscapes and allegorical themes to portraits and genre scenes. Duyunova relies on a variety of materials to render artworks,from waterclors and acrylic paints to pens,pencils,and ink. Her approach to painting is multifaceted :whereas her alla prima compositions are reminiscent of the Impressionists,a number of her acrylic works often evoke the color-driven Fauvist works of Henri Matisse and Andre Derain,especially in their simplification of forms and saturated colors.~ Agora Gallery,NYC,2010

The full text of email from Dan Guerrero to UCLA community concerning the firing of head football coach Rick Neuheisel.
News breaking right now. UCLA has fired Rick Neuheisel after all out pressure on AD from Bruin alums.
Chancellor Block's contact info. Demand a change.
A UCLA alums gets disgusted with the state of Bruin football program and sends Chancellor Gene Block a voided check, his UCLA gear and a personalized letter demanding regime change at UCLA.
Rick Neuheisel made absurd comments about UCLA moving in the "right direction" in this week's presser. While he is denial the blame lies with Bruin athletic director Dan Guerrero for the sorry and...
Chianti Dan foolishly continues to delay the inevitable while other PAC 12 programs enter the bidding for available replacement head coaches.
The day after losing 50-0 to USC, Rick Neuheisel answers whether he deserves to continue coaching UCLA football. "I think the program is headed in the right direction." The delusion continues. Complete regime change is needed.
John Ireland Rips UCLA. Chianti Dan, your reign must end.
Time for UCLA alums and season ticket holders to generate all out pressure to force incompetent and out of touch UCLA AD Dan Guerrero to move on firing Rick Neuheisel as the head football coach of...
UCLA fans should not be spending a dime to support Dan Guererro's program until the tonedeaf athletic director has let go of his football coach.

She's just bein'
Miley Lil' Kim.
While the rest of us are strapping on teddy bears and seeing just how far our tongues can stretch for our Miley Cyrus costume tonight, Cyrus herself is channeling a different musical provocateur. The One Who Twerks uploaded a bunch of photos to her Twitter account last night that show her channeling Kim's get-up from the 1999 VMAs — purple pastie and all.
Check out the slightly NSFW pics below:

Granted we're all on a a budget while being students, nevertheless there are times when we'll either need a good feed, want to sample some new taste sensations or just want to treat ourselves to a meal out with freinds. This can be done in so many different places in Okazaki and it won't mean breaking the budget.
I have taken it upon myself to set out to find places near the institute within a price range that I consider to be affordable for most.
First on the list would have to be Baikingu or Viking. If it's quantity you're after, and let's face it, we've all been there at some stage, this place is without rival. It is also a very cheap introduction to many typical Japanese dishes. Naturally , the quality is not the best, but it is certainly not bad. It's on Route 248 (known as "ni yon pa"), which we all cross on our way to school so it is very handy. It's a white building on a corner on the same side of the road as Seiyu. On the corner opposite Atomu Boy and before Seiyu.
For 1100 Yen you can treat yourself to any amount of sushi, soups, yaki niku (meat which you cook on a grill at your own table),salads, noodles, fried appetizers such as squid, chicken age, takoyaki (octopus balls), frueit and desserts, icecream and fairy floss. It's hard not to get excited at the endless array of Japanese culinary delights!
If it's a challenge you're after - trying eating as much as you can in an hour. That's the deal. Stay longer and you're up for another 11000 YEN. If you want more of a challenge, try doing it in your 50 minute lunch break! (Make sure you've got health insurance first! More about this later..........) It's a very popular spot for Friday and Saturday lunch. Many teachers have been known to join their students on a Friday after classes. This is a lunch time deal that does not include Sundays. That's quite normal in Japan. Oh and yes, you also get a drink voucher when you pay your bill which you can use on your next visit. Personally, I prefer the green tea.
Relax in Okazaki Minami Park!
Tomi behind the bar
Tomi behind the bar
Also close to the school and on Route 248 is Yellow Cab. Up fron the Aoi Bookstore corner in the direction of Minami Koen but on the other side of the road. Set back and with an image of Clark Gable and Vivien Leigh painted on the side wall, you can't miss this place. It was recommended by my young next door neighbours who found the staff very obliging, especially when it came to getting help with their Japanese homework. In fact this resulted in quite a friendship, one that interrupted my sleep on more than one occasion! It wasn't so much the music as the high pitched laughter and screeching of the girl. Not wanting to become resentful, and not wanting to be the complaining, party-pooper neighbour, I, not without some embarrassment and hesitation, let Kevin know that I needed some sleep. I focused my complaint on the girl's irritating squeal. They were very apologetic - even used all the polite "mou shiwake goziamasen" on me and made a real effort after that for which I was very grateful. Having a unusual name means that people generally have trouble remembering it if they have to say it, but conversely , if they hear it they will recognize it. So, you can imagine my embarrassment the other night when introducing myself to the young girl behind the bar. No sooner had I said my name that the penny dropped! Oops! Happily, no hard feelings!
Enough preamble. The lunch special (11.30 - 2.30) is fantastic value is you eat chicken and very good value if you don't. An example:
soup, salad, rice, chicken katsu (cutlet) 490 Yen or
soup, salad, rice, hamburger 640 Yen with orange juice or coffee for an extra 2oo Yen.
All three of us, including Kitamura sensei (she has been very happy to acconpany us on ur search for cheap eats in Okazaki) were very satisfied with our meal. If you rode your bike you could probably make it in time for afternoon classes but I wouldn't count on it. For evening meals and drinks, it's open form 6.00 pm. to 12.00. On Fridays and Saturdays it's open until 2.00am. Alcoholic drinks start at 390 Yen for a glass of beer and there is an extensive cocktail list. At the time of writing Volume 13 of Chao magazine has a coupon which entitles you to a cocktail of your choice for half price sit at the bar and practise your Japanese with Tomi and Tetsuya. You wont have to explain where you are studying. There is a function room upstairs which was the site of some very drinking judging by the guy who shocked me by bumping violently into the back of my stool, then preceded to bump straight into a wooden support and then a glass door! Ouch! The barmen assured us this didn't happen often. Yeah. Well maybe not here, I thought, but I have to say that I never seen such obvious paralitic drunkenness as I have in Japan. Mainly men, and although not exclusively so, mainly the type known as sarariman. I'm sure that needs no explanation.
Just up from Yellow Cab is Suihiro Ramen. It's a modern Japanese style bulding. Sleek slate grey colour with red trim. I rode past late one Sunday afternoon and wondered why there was a stream of teenagers lining up. Such is the popularity of this place. Young Tomoya kun enthusiastically told us you can get your order in less than 5 minutes. No sooner had I suggested we"d time then than his order arrived. Two minutes! Very impressive.
He had Ten Shin Nan - a bowl of rice covered with a omolette and a sauce which had a strong sesame aroma for 550 Yen. Tania had Shio Butter Corn Ramen. (There are several ramen soup bases - shoyu {soy}, shio {salt}, miso, and butter.) Hers cost 600 Yen. Most dishes cost about 650 - 800 and the servings are more than generous. This place is great value if you are hungry. They always have specials which are clearly advertised on the full colour picture laminated menus that are on every table. Beers start at 450 Yen but iced water is free and plentiful as they leave a big pitcher on the table. Of course there are all the usuals - gyoza and shuu mai which are good for starters, particularly if you're there with some friends. Michio, who goes there regularly, says you can even order a bowl and share between two. I guess you can always try. There is also a mochi kaeri (take out) menu.
The characteristic colour scheme is continued indoors with low black tables on tatami , tan cushions , slate tiles with red highlights. In short, a contemporary traditonal Japanese feel. It's closed Thursdays, open weekdays between 11.00am and 3.00pm, then reopens at 5.00pm until 9.00pm. Weekends it's open from 11.00am until 9.00 pm.
Tourakuen is a treasure. I'd often ridden past on my bike thinking what a beautiful house it was until one day Cory suggested we go here for lunch. Walk into Tourakuen and you step back in time to the Taisho period (1912 - 1926). The decor is the Japanese equivalent of what I would consider Arts and Crafts Movement. Stained glass windows and lots of dark wood, nestled in the fairy tale surroundings of an enchanted garden that overlooks the Ooike (appropriately named big pond).
It's not particularly cheap but the lunch special is affordable and delicious - excellent value for the experience alone. For 1000 Yen we chose from a pork or prawn rice bowl which came with nimono (stewed vegetables, a chawan mushi (a type of savury egg custard in a small cup), tsukemono (pickles), and miso soup with very fine white somen noodles floating in it. To finish was a mosaic of coffee jelly cubes with a spoonful of yoghurt and some thin slices of banana gracefully arranged - all on lovely Japanese crockery and laquerware. Not only was it a feast for the taste buds, it was a feast for the eyes. At the mention of Yamasa and the owner fondly remembered a French man who used to study there who still sends her postcards from different parts of the world.
Tourakuen is open for lunch from 11.30 am to 2.30 pm and for dinner from 6.00 pm to 9.00 pm. It"s closed on Tuesdays and every second Monday of the month.
You don't have to have been in Japan long to know Yoshinoya. Famous for its unbeatable value Gyuu Don which starts at 400 Yen which can never be too unattainable as there are outlets everywhere open 24 hours a day! Of course there are lots of other things to chose from on the menu and they have regular specials such as the meat/fish teishoku (set meal)for 490 Yen which comes with miso soup, some picles, rice, some stir fried beef and onion as well as a piece of grilled salmon. Salads start at 140 Yen. You can get extra rice by paying a bit more. The pickled ginger is free, but you'll have to pay 50 Yen if you want raw egg for your Gyuu Don. Yum. Everyone should try this at least once. You are given a cup of green tea soon after sitting at the counter. Some people jsut love Yoshinoya. Euan does and so does Nina. They're both from England. That's not the only reason why I want to introduce them to each other.
Yoshinoya is further along the Route 248 - just before Minmai Koen. Breakfast after some morning exercise?
If you're in the mood for soba or udon noodles then Menkoudou is the place to go. Not the closest place but worth checking out as this is in itself another little hub of eateries of various sorts. The nearest landmark is Domii. Coming from Route 248 turn right into the road that takes you to Domy Super Centre. (There's a men's clothing shop on the corner with a big elephant on the roof. The Japanese are particularly fond of animal mascots. They are by no means a rare sight. Especially outside of drug stores.) Then take a left hand turn at the gas station just before Domii. Go straight ahead past the first intersection and you'll eventually see it on the right hand side.
There are teishoku specials that include a small serve of noodles of your choice plus salad, tsukemono (Japanese pickles), Rice.
Or you can order from the ippin (one dish) category. Dishes such as tempura soba, miso soup base noodles with egg, tempura, mountain vegetables, etc., etc. Prices start at 450 Yen. We were given a voucher each when we paid our bill. A 250 Yen discount on a 500 glass of beer for use on a subsequent visit.
You can either sit on a stool at the bench or at low tables for four. Don't worry about having to sit seiza - there's the sunken bit in the middle so you let your legs hang down. A great place to go when you're feeling the cold!
Opening hours 11.00am to 8.00pm. Closed Mondays.
If you're living in Residene U Chaio is your local Thai restaurant. If you're not, then take a walk to the greener side of town. That's what Midorigaoka means, afterall. (By the way, learning the kanji for place names really helps reinforce some kanji basics as well as helps you remember the name itself).
It is situated after the Route 1 intersection in an area which includes a cake shop, bar and other restaurants. Look for an incongrous modern concrete building with an even more incongruous camel lieing at the front. On the other side there's a very colourful mobile phone shop.
What I like most about Chaio is its clean, modern atmosphere. With white walls, articulated with curves and decorated with interesting wall hangings, the main room has a big wooden host's table and mustard coloured upholsterd chairs. It's a very relaxed mood which I haven't come accross a lot in Okazaki. The higawari lunch special (or daily special) when I went was :
cha han (fried rice) set 850 Yen or curry set 950 Yen
both included : salad, soup, agemono (this means something that has been fried and here it was a prawn cracker and a spicy fried toast), choice of fried rice (tomato/pineapple) or curry (red beef/ green chicken with a limitless bowl of rice), a cube of iced coconut and lemongrass tea. I chose the unusual sweet pineapple fried rice which was very delicious athough it left me feeling like I hadn't eaten a main dish yet. The cocunut ice was refreshing and unusual end to the meal. This is not a place for a big feed, and not the most typical Thai cuisine. The site of one prawn chip left me somewhat bemused. Dishes are served one at a time rather than all at once. Keiko, one of my Japanese friends raves about the (suupu nashi ramen) dry noodles served with a variety of condiments.
There are 2 New York Papa restaurants in Okazaki. One is just up the road from Seiyu on the hill. A landmark in itself. It is a bistro feel they've gone for here with elegant rattan chairs and big posters on the walls. There's even a grand piano. In a modern concrete building surrounded by greenery, it's spacious, cool and relaxed. New york Papa is a pasta, pizza and gratin restaurant. They pride themselves on cooking healthy food and only use pure olive oil.
I miss Indian food. I miss Indian cooking. That's no doubt why I was so excited to go to Paneeru with the people who reccommended it - my students at the YES English School. It feels and looks like any other Indian restaurant - with images of Indian deities on the wall, soft lighting and enticing aromas coming from the kitchen. In a country where most ethnic cuisine is changed to suit the Japanese palette, the food at Paneeru is what I consider authentic Inadian cooking.
There is an extensive curry list (lamb, chicken, beef, prawn, vegetarian) with a key to indicate their varying degres of spicyness, all ranging from 800 to 880 Yen. There are dry curries, banquet menus, appetizers such as pakoras, samosas, etc., salads, and drinks such as lassies, chai tea, juices as well as beer from India and other more usual types.
The lunch special costs 900 Yen. It's great value. You get your choice of curry (there are 10 on the list), a salad, your choice of 2 loaves of nan or rice, and your choice of drink (from lassie, coffee, tea, mango juice). Japanese people don't eat much lamb unless they're from Hokkaido....... or so I've been told. Australians do. So I went for the Indian lamb curry. It was rated 3 out of 4 in the spiciness scale and true to scale, did leave me with a tingling after sensation.
It's closed on Mondays and the day after a public holiday. Lunch time hours are 11.30 - 3pm. Dinner is 5.00 - 10.00pm. Most Japanese restaurants have the last order time set at half to one hour before close time so watch out. In this case 2.30pm amd 9.00pm respectively.
How to get there: It"s about a 10 to 15 minute bike ride from the school. The address is Tonya Danchinai in Tatsumigaoka. Go up towards Tatsumigaoka (beautiful dragon mound), from Seiyu - that's up to the right; go past New York Papa and turn left at the intersection with the two pachinko parlours. After a little while you'll turn right opposite a group of shops. Follow the road to the right, veer left before crashing into the coffee shop and you'll see the signpost.
A quick mention -Jouhokuhanten is considered the best and one of the cheapest Chinese restaurants in town. It's in the down town area. My home stay family took me there the first time (they are discerning types!) A group of us went most recently after watching Tania and Ayako in the yukata competition. There are all sorts of dishes to choose from - everything you'd expect, plus more. We certainly weren't expecting to see Sai! He's in C class and a recent addition to our staff at the YES English School! In the kitchen! That made our night. We paid about 1400 Yen each, having shared a variety of dishes.
Sai happy to see us

On this day in 1922, police reported they were kept on the move by the acts of hoodlums as calls came in from across the city. Blinds were removed from houses and gates from fences, front doors of houses were banged with heavy objects and in several cases panels were cracked. In areas where ash had been put out, nearly every barrel had been tipped over.

The rinds of these classic Extremaduran Ibores cheeses are hand rubbed with Pimenton de la Vera – smoked paprika that dates back to the time of Columbus. It is the traditional way Ibores cheese has been presented. This semi-cured cheese is aged for a minimum of two months, producing a creamy, buttery flavor.
Ibores is produced from the milk of Serrana, Verata or Retinta goats, all bred according to tradition, and allowed to roam across the arid countryside searching out these aromatic herbs and grasses. The addition of Pimenton de la Vera from home grown peppers complements the rockrose, heather, and thyme the goats have eaten.

Do You Prefer Jon Stewart or Stephen Colbert?
by POPSUGAR Entertainment 60 Reactions 0 Shares Print
Together, Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert put together one of the funniest hours on television — but what if you could only watch one of them? Would you go with Stewart's cheerful one-liners or Colbert's faux punditry?

I love them both in different ways... but Stephen more ;) My adoration (*cough* obsession) for Stephen stems from his whole career rather than from just his fake news correspondence (truthiness?). That's really the difference. I pretty much enjoyed them both equally until I got into Strangers With Candy (Colbert's other, "extremely canceled" Comedy Central series from '99 to 2000), and it basically snowballed from there. I think the only other work of Jon's that I'm familiar with is his appearance in Half Baked!

I'm all about the Jon Stewart. Colbert was great...when he was on the Daily Show. But Jon, is just so intelligent and while interviewing and debating more articulate. I mean seriously has anyone ever seen that Crossfire episode? Perfeeection. So, I'm Stewart all the way.

Hey, you have a neither option...you need a BOTH!!! They definitely bring comedy to the otherwise bleak world of politics...and besides, I fell head-over-heels in love with Colbert after his wonderful Roast and subsequent Toast of George W. at the White House Press Correspondents' Dinner!!!
nicachica 6 years
how can i choose??? this is like asking "what child do you love more?" when the answer is that you love both but in different ways! i LOVE both men - Jon for his outright ridicule and disdain for the media and Colbert for his over-the-top O'Reilly-like personality and just plain hilariousness. I don't laugh nearly as hard when i watch Jon Stewart as opposed to Colbert but the Daily Show makes me think a bit more than the Report. sigh...still, in the end i chose Colbert. COLBERT FOR PRESIDENT!!!!

After about 15 feet of diagonal traversing, move up via a thin hand crack. Climb up this intermittent crack system alternating between face moves and cracks in the acute dihedral (crux). Watch for a bit of hollow-sounding rock here & a small, movable block near the top. Move left at top to bolted anchor.

Derry News
---- — The list of success stories keeps growing.
Since the Derry News began its Pet of the Week more than a year ago, many dogs and cats have found new homes through the Greater Derry Humane Society.
Pets featured each week have tugged at some heartstrings of those wanting to help give these animals new life in a new permanent home.
Recent success stories include Cayla, a miniature pinscher featured several times as Pet of the Week. She is now enjoying her new home with a Derry family who saw her photo in the newspaper and decided to offer her a "forever" home.
Maggie, another dog featured numerous times as Pet of the Week, also has found a permanent home.
Dogs Max, Pepe and Bella and kitty Shadow all were featured and all have been adopted.
Greater Derry Humane Society director Barbara McCarthy said more pets needing homes will be listed soon after they are trained and ready to go.
Until then, McCarthy urges anyone wanting to help to consider becoming a foster home for pets waiting for adoption, or even learning more about pet therapy in area nursing homes.
Helping hands are always needed for the all-volunteer Humane Society and there is a job for anyone wanting to help animals in need.
Call for information at 434-1512 or visit the Greater Derry Humane Society at derryhumanesociety.com.

Couldn't even believe it was out already. I'm a die hard white zombie/rob zombie fan and have been awaiting this release for some time. It was an unexpected surprise when I spotted this for sale earlier today. I've been checking Rob's website monthly to see a release date.
Anyways basically it's worth it more as a collectors item, but had a little buyers remorse after. I've owned the earlier white zombie records and trust me they're not something you're going to listen to for pleasure. Some songs sound like a garage band playing for the first time. The rest of the cd is some soundtrack songs mixed with the rest of the white zombie collection.
DVD is pretty solid.
I guess I personally had higher expectations.

good for the price
These were favors for my 10 year old daughter's glow party. Kids liked them and the last through the night but a a bit small. Some glowed brighter than others and you have the occasional dud. Just order a few extra and you should be fine.

This may be my new favorite! I've always been a fan of a good Hefeweizen, and this is everything a Hefeweizen should be!

3/5 rDev -14.8%
A: Cloudy yellow in the pint glass with
characteristically low carbonation and thus
scant head and lace.
S: The scent of banana is apparent with little
else distinguishing
T: Wack. The taste of Banana is too much for my
taste in beers. I've found that this banana
flavor is what tends to seperate a good Hefe
and the not so good Hefes. The banana is
there in many Hefes but this one is just too
much. This beer also leaves a little acid at
the back of the toungue that I don't much
care for in a Hefe. I really look for the
clean finish in these "dirty" beers.
M: Thin with a little body and a weird fizzy
D: As I move into Hefeweizen season this one
will bring up the rear on my list of what to
keep handy.

This is one beer that Icould drink quite a bit of on a hot day.
A: Light gold appearance which is a bit unusual for hefeweizens but mouthwatering nonetheless. I received a light head but I got it on tap too so I am willing to overlook that.
S: Flowery aroma with a light citrus. Orange perhaps.
T: Very flowery taste. Less citrus than hinted at before. Similar to a Harpoon UFO in it's median hefe flavor. Not too sweet, not too acidic.
M: Nothing unusual here. Light, glides over your tongue. Bubbles just right. No more carbonation than needed.
D: Hot day type of beer.

2.25/5 rDev -36.1%
A- pours a light gold with just a tiny head. No lacing. Didn't realize it was a hefe until I poured (only says wheat beer on the bottle and was part of mixed sixer). Guess its a krystalweizen.
S- strange, banana but also some sour apple, sour cherry and mustiness. Just a touch of spice.
T- the banana and spice come through better in the taste but the finish is still puckering apple. Acetaldehyde?
M- fairly thin with moderate carbonation. I'd like more body for a hefe but in this mess of a beer it's probably better this way.
O- drinks like a banana-wheat Budweiser. Looks like one too. Starr Hill seems to have some serious production flaws in their beers outside of the pale ale. Not impressed.

Bottle pours a hazed golden yellow body with a medium sized vanilla head. Good retention with some island chain lacing.
Aroma hits the style well, with banana, clove, and lemony citrus.
Mouthfeel is medium, but thins as it goes along and an early creaminess fades. Moderate carbonation.
Taste is dominated by lemony citrus. Just a hint of banana, but plenty of clove. Subtle wheat malt.
A worthy effort that fills the bill nicely as a decent American hefe.

2.75/5 rDev -21.9%
Average to slightly below average hefe. Hits all the style marks for what you would expect to find in a hefe, but the flavor does not come together as well here as in other examples in the style. For me, this is a pass.

12 oz bottle from mixed "Summer Tour" 12-pack dated best by 17 Dec. 2011. Served in a pint glass. Newer label than shown on BA.
Pours a hazy golden straw color with a small and short-lived off-white head. Lots of visible carbonation. Additional sediment in the bottom of the bottle added mid-tasting.
S - rather typical weisbier aroma with yeast, citrus, ripe banana, a clove-like spiciness and, perhaps, a trace of hops. Not particularly inviting, but I find that true of many beers of this style.
T - moderate strength for style. Yeast, grain, ripe banana and lemony citrus. Sour and sweet components with a clear tart balance. Good but quite citrusy aftertaste.
M - medium-light body; nice carbonation level; a tad crisp; semi-dry finish.
O - In sum, an above average weisbier, particularly in regards to mouthfeel. Good thirst quencher.

Bottle into Starr Hill pint glass...
Pours a hazy dark golden yellow with about a finger's worth of head. Not a lot of retention or lacing as it dies down. Looks pretty traditional for a hefe style, just not as much carbonation as I like to normally see.
Nose is full of typical aromas: banana, clove, bubblegum and lemon. A lot more acidic tartness then usual for the style though.
Tastes just as predicted. A lot of lemon sourness that seems to overwhelm the other flavors, especially the wheat. Wish it was a bit breadier, and less mouth puckering bubblegum. Not bad, but not great either.
Mouth feel is little thin, light to medium bodied. Again, not as much carbonation and creaminess as I had hoped.
Overall, this beer is pretty good. Since its local, my gf and I seem to drink a decent amount of it on hot summer days. However, there are much better American Hefes out there.

DATE REVIEWED: July 18, 2014... GLASSWARE: Weihenstaphaner weizen... OCCASION: beautiful camp day to a close...APPEARANCE: cloudy golden yellow body with generally large bubbles at the bottom of the glass; quickly flattening head--zero left behind, creating a bald brew... AROMA: banana and bubblegum--a yeast strain that is a bit clean for a hefe... some clove late... PALATE: crisp, reasonably medium-bodied; swift aftertaste; not really unfiltered... TASTE: yeasty banana, and yet not too flavorful; slightly acidic, but rather smooth overall, missing the rougher, more natural flavor profile of a hefe... OVERALL: refreshing on the deck at Friday 5 pm, yes--flavorful enough to distinguish itself or hold interest, no...enough to be a hefe, definitely not; the sampler hit on two of four (the IPA and pils) and struggles elsewhere...

This beer was poured from a bottle into a pint glass. It had a two finger white head that lasted a couple of minutes. It has a yellow/orange color and is cloudy(unfiltered). The beer smells of clove, banana, yeast, and wheat. It tasted of clove, lemon, wheat, and was a little sour. This beer has minimal lacing and a light body. This would be a good session beer. I would have to say this beer is average for the stlye.

Pours a snow-white head over an inch thick, and it sticks around a long while. The color is a muddy yellow, like pulpy pear/pineapple juice, cloudy from the swirled yeast. Looks just as it should, and when a hefeweizen looks good, it looks really good. Maybe it's not a true German hefe, but this looks really good, indeed.
Aroma is mostly tropical fruit, lots of banana especially, with some pear as well. Sweetness is like cream-and-sugar, and I'm thinking this is something I'd want mixed into my oatmeal. A very welcoming, comforting sort of aroma.
At first it's a wonderful flavor: banana, pear, lemon, tangerine, cream, fresh-baked white bread, herbal tea, pineapple soda. Certainly puts it's own stamp on the American Wheat Beer category. The only thing stopping this from getting a "4" grade is the mineral/metallic character that, while not terribly intense, seems to cut off these sweet, bready, delicate flavors that impress at the very front of the sip. There's almost no real finish to this beer, except for a green apple tartness that pushes through.
A softness of texture is held back by a too-carbonated tingle. Too bad, as there's a wonderfully velvety thing happening here, but it's dominated by something more aggressive, and it brought the enjoyment factor down just a little bit for me.
Wow, just the fact that this qualifies as "pretty darn good" is a lot more than I've been able to say for most Starr Hill stuff (who have only struck me as "ho-hum" so far, and that's not being a snob, just being honest to my own impressions). Glad I bought this, and it worked really, really well in a pizza dough recipe I have that calls for wheat beer. The Love? Maybe not totally, but I'd be happy to call it The Like.

A - bright, cloudy yellow with a large, bubbly, fizzy, white head that fades quickly
S - white grapes, apples, straw
T - straw, grapes, banana, some faint spice, mildly tart finish
M - medium bodied, crisp, well carbonated
This is a pretty basic beer. It has notes of straw and complex fruit from the yeast. Some more spice would help add to the simplistic flavor profile. It's not a bad beer, but there are definitely better Hefeweizens out there. I'll pass on this beer in the future.

Blond, sunny, liquid pours out and presents a white head of 1.5 fingers...
A nice phenolic aroma of clove and bananas hits the nose, a little alcoholic spice as well. The flavor matches the nose, with a fruity isoamyl acetate punch, banana bunch, sourdough bread and a hint of that clove. A little sweet and a strange backend that reminds me of the iron smell you get when a bloody nose runs down the back of your throat. Thats new. A bit watery with a light body and light carbonation.
Overall a good beer to give someone used to BMC, a transition from the shocktops and blue mooners out there.

A- Pours a hazed golden orange color with an off-white head that turns into a thin ring around the glass.
S- The aroma features some wheat malt along with citrus, a hint of spices and yeast. Not bad, judging by the aroma this should be a refreshing beer.
T- The taste like the aroma starts out with some wheat flavors, along with hints of citrus and spices. Maybe even a little orange peel thrown in there as well.
M- The mouthfeel is light bodied and heavily carbonated.
D- Overall, this isn't a bad beer. Not the most complex brew, but an easy drinker to possibly be enjoyed outdoors. Worth a try.
