Copenhagen part 4
We started our day off right and headed over to the Vesterbro neighborhood to visit Cafe Bang og Jensen for some breakfast. This is easily one of the favorite spots for a morning meal in Copenhagen, and they even offer a Smorgasbord from 8:00 – 10:30. We were a little late for the buffet and opted for the breakfast platter with soft boiled eggs.
The cafe is a nice and modest spot with some great patio seating if you're lucky enough to get a seat. On the walls hang lots of "Old sailor" prints.
After breakfast we headed over to "The Art Of", a brand new shop in Copenhagen and a store that I instantaneously connected with and admired the second I walked in the front door. It was randomly recommended to us by a fellow diner at Relæ the night before.
When you enter the store you see a curated collection of small products placed meticulously on grey industrial storage containers. The products range from bull horn combs, Swedish Military knives, and German espresso makers but the collection of products all fit a central theme that is always changing.
The current themes that were being explored in the space were The Art Of Cooking and The Art Of War.
The owner Rasmus Barlby graciously told us amazing stories about many of the products he carries. I think you'll be hearing a lot about this store in the near future.
We took a walk to visit Keramik og Glasvaerkstedet, a studio / shop that features some of Denmark's most prominent ceramicists and glass artists. We were definitely on a mission this trip to bring in more from both of these mediums and after a bit of searching we finally found the beautiful corner studio.
During our visit we met with artist Annemette Kissow. The studio had an exhibition featuring her beautiful flower vessels with sprigs of "baby's breath".
We really loved the matte white storage containers, salt and pepper bowls, and oak wood handle tea pot.
A little peek into the studio.
With a bit of help from Annemette we were pointed in the direction of our lunch destination.
Aaman's, arguably Copenhagen's best destination for modern Smørrebrød.
The restaurant was recently renovated with some beautiful wide plank douglas fir floors, Aalto pendant lights, and Tom Dixon chairs.
They even have white oak Rocket Stools by Eero Aarnio.
If you like this look you can get both the Rocket Stools and Aalto lights at Mjolk!
All of the smørrebrød are displayed with just the essential ingredients on them. When you pick your smørrebrød they take it to the back and dress it up really beautifully.
We ordered 4 to start and some beer. While we waited we checked out their stocked shelves and fridges full of ingredients and prepared take-away food.
We sat down and our 4 smørrebrød arrived soon after.
We had:
Beef tartare with capers, pickles, and potato chips
Pork belly and walnuts
Roastbeef with horseradish and fried onions and
Halibut with dill and cucumber
They were so delicious, easily one of the most enjoyable lunches we've ever had.
We decided that everything was so good we wanted to have the chance to try every single style so we ordered 2 more.
left: chickensalad with chives and baked prosciutto
right: baby potatoes with cream cheese, chives and radish.
You may notice that there is always a "crunch" factor with every sandwich. Texture is crucial in a good smørrebrød, you can get a bit of everything in one bite.
Looks like we stumbled across Muuto's office. We didn't buzz them (but maybe we should have considering the extreme delay on us getting our Dots shipment).
Guns & Gents, an interesting menswear concept in shop form.
Our last meal in Copenhagen was Fiskenbaren, a new-ish restaurant that had been so hyped and talked about we made a point to get a 8:30 reservation on a Friday to make sure the place was packed and we could fully appreciate the Copenhagen bar/dinner experience.
Tucked away in the meat packing district among some of Copenhagen's most vibrant and interesting bars Fiskenbaren was once industrial space, and now has an award winning interior with a big fish tank and large square bar in the center of the restaurant. It's lively and the place you want to be for a casual bite, or drink. I have to admit however the dinner itself didn't blow me away as much as the reviewers (from all sorts of prominent places) would have lead me to believe. Too much hype can just give you unrealistic expectations.
we started with Danish oysters which were large, fresh, and delicious a great start paired with Juli's mojito and my gin and tonic. They do cocktails splendidly, although I have heard they have a great collection of wines as well.
We decided to share our entrees so we could have a bit of range with the food. We had the butter cod and mussels.
The cod on it's own was fantastic, the butter and dill sauce was melt in your mouth delicious. The sides were very unappetizing, and had a taste of burnt lettuce and cigarettes, such a shame for such a delicious fish.
The mussels were good, it was served under cooked apples and bacon. Although dinner didn't leave a mark with us as much as Relae, I would still recommend Fiskenbaren. You get a glimpse of Copenhagen night life with some good eats, and the atmosphere is great. Plus you can always walk down the street and stop in at Jolene Bar it was crazy busy so much so that there was a guy taking a piss in front of it.
Next stop Stockholm!
Copenhagen part 3: Dinner at Relæ
Not sure what is up with Copenhagen, if it's always been looking so good, or if in the last two years they've been doing some extensive cleaning up, but it's looking spiffy. Buildings are clean and fresh with plaster (the above buildings as an example, the right one is currently being worked on).
To add some contrast…
On our way to dinner!
Our second night in Copenhagen brought us back to Jægersborggade, to Relæ which is kitty corner to last night's visit to Manfred's. Both restaurants were opened by Noma alumni.
We got a plum spot at the bar (we're totally bar folk, we like to sit next to each other). An interesting group of Danes and North Americans (based on their accents, or lack thereof) working the kitchen. Each presented the dish they were working on to us.
They have drawers at each table with the cutlery, napkins and menus tucked inside. The menu has two options: regular and vegetarian, which is a variation of the regular menu.
A starter, in season asparagus.
We loved the olive oil carafe and ceramics, which we found out later were all made by a ceramicist down the street! Local!
Lumpfish roe, hazelnut and cold grapefruit. This dish was really refreshing. I don't generally "get" roe, but it was a nice opener.
Baked bintje, olives and buttermilk. This dish was simple but delicious.
Duroc pork, swede and smoked cod roe. Pasta-like rutabaga (swede) and pork…this dish was really satisfying. So much so I don't know why…
…we got the Troldehede cheese.
The two male waiters wore some amazing leather butchers aprons. Wish I got a shot from the front but I'm pretty shy when it comes to involving people in my photo taking endeavors.
Don't let this photo fool you. It's between servings…the tables were busy all night. I just don't like to make other diners uncomfortable with my clicking away so I took this photo during a break, just so you could see that it's quite a casual and comfortable atmosphere. That said, people dressed up – it's a date night type of place.
I think this is the kieni, black currant, bread and olive oil. But that said, I have no idea what kieni is. But that's the next thing on the menu so it must be this. Sadly this was the only disappointing item on the menu. But it could have just been my personal taste. I'm a chocolate dessert kind of person.
We've been watching so many cooking and chef shows, it was kind of funny watching them live. But the chefs in this kitchen are nothing but professional and focused.
After dinner we took a walk along Jægersborggade. It seems like the type of area that once had nothing going on, and then the artists came and opened studios, and restaurants and bars followed.
Writers, artists and shoe makers. The street even has its own website!
We stumbled across the ceramicist who made all of Relæ's stoneware.
We lucked out as Julie Bonde Bülck was still in her studio!
An artist series started to present itself…(har har)
I'm a window peeker. Sorry. I really love the candle in the window thing that Scandinavians do.
Loving the use of peek-through frosting that many of the studios have. It gives them privacy but offers a glimpse.
Corner store with patio!
Wish we had time to come by during the day. Next time!
Copenhagen Part 2: Day trip to Fredericia
We woke up early for our day trip to Fredericia. Wanting to start the day off right with some fresh brewed coffee and a big breakfast, we stopped by Granola, a charming 1930s inspired cafe, which is conveniently only a 5-10 minute walk away from the train station.
The orange juice that morning was particularly good.
I got the big breakfast platter which came with a soft boiled egg, ham, cheese, toast, and fruit salad. I think the coffee and juice was all included.
Juli got the egg sandwich with house made ketchup.
The interior of Granola is very authentic, it's like going to a museum but everything is shiny and new. If you're looking for a good breakfast in Copenhagen this is a really good pick.
On the way to the train station we stopped by the Playtype concept store (it's just down the street). You can check out the Globe and Mail article here. Unfortunately it was closed, and we had a train to catch, but it was great at least peeking into the window and seeing some of the products in person.
I think most of the world's copper is on buildings in Copenhagen.
After a pleasant 2 hour train ride we arrived in Fredericia where we were picked up by Liza Friedman, our friend and Fredericia's International business development manager.
We walked up stairs to Fredericia's office to meet face to face people that we had until this point only knew through exchanging emails. I made a bee-line to these small models of Børge Mogensen chairs, all original models in stunning detail. In the photos they look as if they could be life size.
My favourite was the Børge Mogensen hunting chair model, complete with brass buckles.
A tiny scale model of the Spanish chair.
We had the pleasure to meet with Thomas Gravensen, the commander and chief of Fredericia furniture, who along with Liza took us on a personal tour of the factory.
We started out in the showroom where we all sat down and had a some great conversations about Børge Mogensen, mid century design, and Fredericia's impressive new collection.
Leather for the Børge Mogensen Spanish chair, we currently have one in our showroom if you want to come see for yourself how beautiful it is.
Børge Mogensen notes:
When you think of Danish modern design it is very easy to conjure up images of clean lined teak furniture, but when you really think about the big mid century designers like Hans Wegner, Finn Juhl, and Børge Mogensen you start to see that there aren't as many similarities as you might think. Their personal styles and interpretation of the Klint school are widely different from one another.
The Klint school itself refers to the furniture school founded in 1924 at the Royal Danish Academy of fine arts, lead by architect and designer Kaare Klint. The Klint school's philosophy was that furniture was a tool and therefore the design's functionality was deemed more important than its aesthetics. While designers like Hans Wegner and Finn Juhl blurred the line between function and aesthetics, Børge Mogensen stayed true to his teacher's philosophy.
Mogensen created his own signature aesthetic, cutting solid wood in the same way it would naturally appear in nature instead of bending it. This gave Mogensen's pieces a strong and monolithic aesthetic, compared to other famous designers of the time. This is perhaps why his classmates Hans Wegner and Finn Juhl maintain a mainstream appeal, while Mogensen's pieces appear to be modest in comparison. This modesty stems from a social conscientiousness, Mogensen saw his furniture as tools for the family home, many of his most famous designs were made for his family first before going into production. The simplicity of Mogensen's furniture can be seen only at first glance, when you study his designs for a moment you notice the masterful construction, beautiful materials and proportions.
Thomas told us a funny story that I think really encompasses Mogensen's personality and perception. During a very important exhibition for Hans Wegner, Mogensen sat in an exhibited chair and turned to Wegner and casually said "Well Hans… One can sit in it." I loved hearing that.
A collection of quarter-sawn white oak.
Hand assembling dining chairs.
Stacks and stacks of Trinidad dining chairs, one of the most comfortable chairs we have ever sat in. We have them around our desk at the shop.
Original illustrations of Mogensen and Nanna Ditzel by a famous Danish caricature artist.
Molds for leather cutting hang from the walls.
These are the the molds for the iconic arm of the Mogensen sofa. They strategically place these molds so that as little leather as possible is wasted.
After the leather is cut all of the pieces are sewn meticulously using these machines.
A collection of leather sofa covers ready to be stuffed with their pillows.
It takes two people to upholster a Borge Mogensen sofa because the leather has to be pulled super tight so there are no wrinkles.
The piping is a very beautiful detail that relies on a perfectly executed upholstery job.
The construction of the sofa uses many different natural materials including pure jute webbing. The cotton string is used instead of synthetics since materials like nylon take a long time to wear and can actually cut up the insides of a sofa from the owner's weight after long periods of use. Cotton is much less abrasive, and having all of the materials age with each other naturally lends to the long life of each Mogensen sofa.
The last part of the studio was seeing the raw solid wood carcasses of the Mogensen wing chair. Even in their most stripped down form, they look strong and solid.
Each frame is made with a combination of solid beech wood and solid white oak, two very strong and stable hard woods.
Thank you for the tour, Liza and Thomas! We really appreciated seeing where some of our favourite furniture pieces are made. We hope you enjoyed it too!
Copenhagen: Part 1
We arrived in Copenhagen after a 3 hour flight from Reykjavik. Unfortunately due to the time change we were having what felt like breakfast in the late afternoon in Copenhagen. We dropped off our bags at the hotel and trekked over to Cafe Dyrehaven, one of the coolest local spots in Copenhagen.
In the 70s this place used to a really dodgy bar, one could even use the term drug den. Of course like many rough neighborhoods the cafe now caters to young locals in the hip Vesterbro district.
The bar looks as if it has been untouched since its opening.
I knew this place had a reputation for a good Eggs Benedict so that's what I wanted to get. The eggs sat on a piece of dark rye Rugbrød, the combination was fantastic. I think it may even be better than an english muffin.
Juli had the fried cod with buttery dill on rugbrød.
After breakfast we took a long walk, it's been a good 2 years since we were last here but everything is still so fresh in our minds.
Danish bike culture is amazing. Then again, we shouldn't take it too hard. There are no hills, and no notorious bike thieves like we have in Toronto.
We didn't have much time to visit many shops but we wanted to visit Klassik, one of the largest collections of mid century Danish design in the city. I also really wanted to visit Dansk Mobelkunst which I would say is the best curated vintage shop in the city but it seemed to be missing. Maybe they moved? Maybe we walked right by it and missed it… Next time we'll write down the address.
A beautiful specimen, a vintage Hans Wegner "the chair".
Three amazing Poul Hundevad stools, on my wish list for sure.
One of my favorite chairs of all time, the Spanish chair by Børge Mogensen. We sell them in the shop!
There is a really cool street called Jægersborggade which we kept on coming back to during our stay in Copenhagen. It has an amazing collection of great cafes, bars, and some of the best eating in town. For our first night we were off to Manfred's, opened by former Noma sous-chef Christian F. Puglisi. During the day it is a gourmet take-away, and at night it becomes a tiny special sit down restaurant offering the best of local and seasonal ingredients.
If you can book in advance there is seriously limited seating available. — brunch available on weekends.
We were a little early for our reservation so we stopped by MusiksMag Bar, also known as the music cafe for a drink. We really fell in love with this place, they keep it really simple:
Pour over coffee, cheap red wine, or 40 kroner Carlsberg.
Time for our reservation!
They have a record player in the corner and tons of vinyl, they keep it going until close without skipping a beat.
Our table had a little chalkboard paint on it to label the reservations.
As an appetizer, Juli had the fresh salmon with buttermilk.
I had the creamy cauliflower soup with crunchy croutons, so delicious.
Our main was ox tail, roasted beet, and bulgar. It was a great combination and a wonderful meal, we had to waddle back to our hotel.
A Reykjavik stopover
Iceland Air offers free stop overs in Reykjavik, on your way to or from Europe, so we decided to take advantage of it and pop by to say hello and check out some new products. We arrived in Reykjavik early Monday morning and started our day off right by having breakfast at one of our favorite breakfast places, the Grey Cat.
We actually managed to not look like the living dead…thanks to miraculously sleeping most of the flight.
The breakfast is just perfect, eggs and stewed tomatoes, potatoes, toast with lots of butter, pancakes and bacon.
After breakfast we met up with Andrea Maack and her husband at their home and studio. Juli bought one of her perfumes last year and it's been her go to scent ever since. It started off as an exhibition concept at Spark Design, but we recently found out that the perfumes are available and being expanded, so we are working on bringing them over to the shop!
They are obsessed with using corian as a material in their packaging and displays, so they made some dumbbells too! The 11 on the weight is actually incorrect so while you work out, you also work out your mind trying to figure out exactly what the weight of it might be.
Packaging and catalogs.
Perfume sample strips.
After our visit they dropped us off at Spark Design Space to see the new Scintilla textile exhibition which is by Icelandic textile and fashion designer Linda Björg Árnadóttir. We met her on our trip last summer and brought her collection to our store, we were excited to see all the new products in person.
The new collection features more pillows, blankets, table cloths, and towels.
Finna and Brynhildur of Vík Prjónsdóttir were waiting for us at Spark design space.
There is now such an amazing range of textiles, you can stop by Mjolk to see at least 3 different versions of her pillows.
We picked up some lobster soup and had an impromptu picnic near the lighthouse.
Now this is bringing back fond memories.
After lunch Finna and Brynhildur gave us some "Skyrkonfelkt", a product they produced with local farmers, in an effort to re-brand farming from a focus on raw material to extending production to varied product lines. Last year it was a sort of rhubarb brittle. This year it is Skyr filled chocolate. It was delicious, and the concept is wonderful.
A stop at a popular local ice cream shop.
Then back to Mokka Kaffi – there are too many places we just had to visit again…sorry to long time Kitka readers…
We met with designers Ingibjörg (middle) and Halla, you have seen Ingibjörg's work in our store, most prominently the Krummi Hanger. The second time you meet someone on a trip is so much better, we were chatting away the minutes sipping on coffee and eating waffles. Ingibjörg and Halla showed us some beautiful and thoughtful new prototypes that we would be more than happy to offer through our store when they eventually become products.
Walking by the new Concert Hall – it's almost complete. Love the sunlight and water reflection!
We had been up too many hours than we can even think of so for dinner we wanted to play keep it simple, a local spot with some good old fashioned fish and chips.
Gull beer
Tiny Icelandic lobsters in butter and herbs to share, so delicious!
Although the dish is quite traditional it is made in a slightly healthier more delicious way, the batter is made from spelt and barley, all the potatoes are hand cut and baked instead of fried, and all of the ingredients used in the skyronnaise are all organic.
After dinner we took a long walk around the city to work off our food, and wind down from the day.
Juli was taking a series of photographs of things displayed in windows and totally got caught taking a picture of this person's fern. Her response was, "I like your ferns!" Haha, embarrassing.
Of course we just had to stop off for a "night cap" hot dog at one of the most famous hot dog stands in the world. Now we're tired, and we'll have to wake up really early again to get to Copenhagen.
Good Night!
Things we brought back home from Hokkaido
It seems we've caught up on most of our work, so this morning I spent some time photographing some of the things we brought home from Japan. I didn't include a few items which will be featured in another post, specifically the pieces we purchased from Sabita in Sapporo. I hope you enjoy this post, and please if there are things that you would like to see in the store, let us know and we'll see what we can do!
This first little fox we purchased from Brow Box in Asahikawa. We love that the artist left all of the little tool marks.
These two spoons are from the Yunosato Desk gift shop, they are nice and deep. The block of wood underneath is Hokkaido maple, it has an interesting grain and was a gift from our tour guide around Yunosato Desk.
Juli purchased a set of travel chopsticks from HOMES in Asahikawa, they are a beautiful blend of traditional Japanese lacquer, teak, and brass hardware. The ceramic bird chop stick rests were a wedding gift from the shop owner.
The wooden bracelet and cherry wood wine stopper were very thoughtful gifts from Maruichi-san the owner of the Maruichi wood processing facility (where the wrap-wraps are produced.) The wooden ruler was a gift from Masanori Oji, he designed this ruler to use a traditional method of Japanese measuring (as well as centimeters.) It's a piece that Oji-san makes as gifts for his friends.
The set of three coffee spoons were purchased from Cholon is Sapporo, the artist lives in the Southern part of Hokkaido.
We also purchased a leaf coaster at Cholon, the cup on top is made from birch by Hokkaido designer Kouta Fukunaga. We nabbed the very last piece on display at HOMES.
Here is a detailed image of the leaf coaster which is made from a real leaf!
This tiny little cast iron spoon will be perfect for salt or spices.
The zelkova wood spoon on the left is currently my favorite wooden spoon, it feels so wonderful in your hand. The little wooden scoop on the right is perfect for tea leaves.
When we visited Kusaka Koushi, the leather studio in Sapporo I just wanted something. This beautiful black leather and brass coin container was just beautiful in person, and it really came in handy carrying change for the subway.
These wooden ornaments were a thoughtful gift from Naoto. It was designed to do a few things, one is a little charm that you tie to your tote bag, but they also can be used a hair tie, or Christmas ornaments.
This is a beautiful rice scoop designed by Makoto Koizumi. It has a layer of unfinished cedar which makes your kitchen smell like a sauna when it hits the steam. You can see in the background that our Japanese spoon collection is getting out of control.
A small bottle of unpasteurized igloo sake.
A gift of coffee beans from Takano Coffee.

Web surfers flock to antivirus sites
Traffic to Microsoft TechNet from surfers logging on at home skyrocketed more than 1,100 percent during the week ending Aug. 17, Internet audience measurement service Nielsen/NetRatings said Monday.
More than 3.9 million Internet surfers accessed Microsoft TechNet, compared with 317,000 surfers the previous week.
The site, which provided information about the Blaster and LovSan viruses and various security tools, was the fastest-growing site during the week, NetRatings said.
"The recent Blaster virus targeted the Microsoft operating system," said NetRatings analyst Greg Bloom. "This fact may have caused surfers to go directly to Microsoft TechNet in search of virus updates and information.

Amniotic fluid surrounds the baby during pregnancy. Amniocentesis is the removal of a small amount of this fluid for testing.
Copyright © Nucleus Medical Media, Inc.
Amniocentesis is most often done to see if there is an abnormality in your baby's genes (DNA). It can also be done to see if your baby is developing correctly. Later in pregnancy, it can be done to determine the maturity of your baby's lungs.
Factors that indicate that you may need this procedure include:
Depending on your risk factors, cells in the amniotic fluid are tested for:
Amniocentesis may also be done:
Complications that may occur with an amniocentesis include:
Factors that may increase your risk of complications include:
Be sure to discuss these risks with your doctor before the procedure.
You may be given a local anesthesia. This numbs a small area in the abdomen where the needle will be placed.
First, an
ultrasound will be done. This will help
to choose a safe spot to insert the needle. Your abdomen will be cleaned. Next, a very thin needle will be inserted through your abdomen into your uterus. A few teaspoons of amniotic fluid will be removed.
After the needle is removed, the doctor will make sure that your baby's heartbeat is normal. In most cases, an ultrasound will be used throughout the procedure.
About 45 minutes.
You may feel cramping when the needle enters your abdomen. You may also feel pressure when the fluid is withdrawn.
A test showing a healthy baby is ideal. But, you will need to be prepared if the results show otherwise. If the test shows that your baby may have a genetic disorder, you may need to make tough decisions regarding your pregnancy. If you do continue with the pregnancy, then you will need to address your child's special needs. Your doctor can help you understand the pros and cons of having this test. Your doctor will work with you on options that are best for you after you know the results.
After arriving home, contact your doctor if you have:

Understanding Cypriote Cult
Potnios Theron and the Search for a Principal Male Divinity in Iron Age Cyprus
(Volume 15)
Derek B. Counts
This monograph explores the intersection of iconography, religion, and cultural identity during the period of the city-kingdoms of Cyprus and after their dissolution (ca. 800-100 BCE). The material remains of Cypriote religion represent an especially conspicuous witness to the longue durée of cultural exchanges in the eastern Mediterranean. Votive sculptures displaying foreign iconography (e.g., Greek, Phoenician, Egyptian, etc.) and multi-lingual dedicatory inscriptions betray the intense movement of artistic and religious symbolism. Perhaps not surprisingly, current scholarship dealing with divine representations found in Cypriote sanctuaries inevitably focuses on identifiable Greek, Near Eastern, or Egyptian artistic elements (e.g., dress and attributes). Based on the wide range of iconography and types, foreign influences have been marshaled as a means of exposing the ethnic origins of the divinity or even the donor; divine images are thus identified based on their relationship to similar images found abroad. Cypriote sanctuaries are reconstructed as repositories for a pantheon of foreign divinities imported from Greece and the Eastern Mediterranean, without regard for their Cypriote context or meaning. The result is a rather static conception of the relationship between iconography, meaning, and identity. Little attention has been paid to the religious continuity and artistic koine expressed by these images; likewise, the significance of regional variations, the islands own political topography, and the potential links between elite power, cult and community during the periods in questions has been largely ignored.
Understanding Cypriote Cult calls for a new direction in the study of Cypriote religionparticularly in the case of male divinitiesbased on the critical framework of postcolonial theory. In particular, postcolonial concepts such as Third Space and hybridity provide more nuanced mechanisms for interpreting Cypriote material culture in the face of successive episodes of cultural contact and clash with foreigners. This monograph represents the first attempt to foreground the productive capacity of these cultural entanglements in the formation of Cypriote religious iconography The author offers a new reading of the multi-vocal iconography present in Cypriote sanctuaries and argues that male divine images represent hybrid forms that reveal the creation of a new divine persona (the Potnios Theron, or master of animals) through the recombination and recomposition of existing referential modesat once recognizable, yet equally incommensurable. It was through the agency of cult that existing cultural boundaries began to be blurred.

During 2009-2010 nearly one lakh teak seedlings have been planted in farmlands in Coimbatore District by the Forest Division and Social Forestry Division under the project, 'Tree Cultivation in Private Lands'. The project is also called the 'Trees Outside the Forests'.
The initiative implemented as part of a State-wide scheme was carried out by Conservator of Forests, Coimbatore Circle, R. Kannan and District Forest Officer, I. Anwardeen in an effort to increase the green cover of the district and to provide economic gains to farmers. Totally 262 farmers were benefitted in one year. Another 50,000 seedlings have been distributed free of cost to farmers by the Tamil Nadu Forest Department under the same scheme.
Mr. Anwardeen said that Mr.Kannan had provided all logistical assistance, guidance and impetus for the scheme and Tamil Nadu is the pioneer State to implement this large scale tree plantation initiative by the Forest Department.
During 2009-10 about 91 lakh casuarinas, teak and other seedlings were planted in the farmlands of Tamil Nadu by the department. The tree cover outside the forest area in Tamil Nadu is estimated to be 3.82 per cent of the geographical area as per Forest Survey of India 2009 report and the national average is 2.82 per cent.

Every cell in your body is assaulted by destructive agents such as free radicals, chemical toxins, heavy metals and radiation that damage the cell, inhibit optimum function and accelerate the aging process and the onset and progression of the diseases and issues associated with aging. Glutathione is the master protector of the cell and defends the cell from these destructive agents.
Over 98,000 scientific studies and articles on Glutathione are recorded in PubMed, the official U.S. Government library of medical research comparing to Vit C which is around 45 000. Those articles reveal the remarkable role glutathione plays in the protection and function of every cell in the human body and the support of optimal health and function. They also show the terrible consequences of low glutathione levels, and how those lower levels accelerate the aging process.
So whats in Cellgevity? It contains breakthrough Riboceine and 12 additional scientifically validation ingredients. These ingredients have profound health benefits. They are:
Riboceine – very powerful ingredient, a patented compound developed and researched by Dr Nagasawa for over 25 years. Clinical studies have shown it to be 300% more effective at raising liver glutathione levels than the compound used in our original product, MaxGXL.
Alpha Lipoic Acid – an antioxidant fighting the effects of oxidative stress which contributes often to aging and inflammation. Works synergistically with glutathione.
Broccoli Seed extract – acts as a catalyst to boost antioxidant activity. Protects against DNA damage and helps to neutralize toxins and carcinogens so they are eliminated from cells. It also helps to raise and replenish glutathione levels and induces the antioxidant enzymes used in the Phase II detoxification pathway. It is crucial for detoxification in the liver.
Turmeric Root Extract (Curcumin) – A potent antioxidant that fights free radicals and is known to reduce inflammation. Curcumin also induces Phase II enzymes that support the glutathione detoxification pathway. Curcumin is known protection against cancer.
Resveratrol – Found in high concentrations in grape skin, it is an antioxidant known to have cardio-protective properties. Resveratrol is beneficial for the heart.
Grape Seed extract – Contains proanthocyanidines which have antioxidant activity, as well as anti-inflammatory properties.
Quercetin – A supporting flavonoid antioxidant that scavenges free radicals that can damage cells.
Milk Thistle (silymarin) – A powerful antioxidant used to support a healthy liver by removing harmful toxins and heavy metals that are stored in the liver.
Vitamin C – Antioxidant supporting the immune system. Works with other antioxidants to support glutathione production.
Selenium – acts as an anti-oxidant and helps to prevent tissue damage caused by free radicals. Selenium plays role in cancer prevention.
Cordyceps – This mushroom has been used as a Chinese medicine for centuries and has been valued for its activity in restoring energy, increasing stamina, promoting longevity and improving quality of life. It is also very beneficial for the adrenals which need to be supported in times of stress.
Black Pepper (BioPerine) – Black Pepper is a special patented extract which has been clinically proven to significantly improve the bio-availability of other ingredients especially curcumin.
Aloe Extract – The most bio-active content of acemannan on the market, the active ingredient in aloe. Aloe is known to support the immune system and has antioxidant functions.
The common question is what's the difference between Cellgevity, MaxONE and MaxGXL. Here is a brief comparison:
Cellgevity vs MaxONE
MaxONE contains a single ingredient, Riboceine, which is the most effective compound known to deliver the fragile cysteine molecule to the cell for glutathione production. In each serving is 125mg of RiboCeine. Cellgevity contains the same 125mg of Riboceine per servce, PLUS the 12 additional potent ingredients listed above.
Cellgevity vs MaxGXL
MaxGXL is the original glutathione product the company was founded on in 2007. It's key ingredient is N-Acetyl-Cysteine which has been used in the past to raise glutatione levels, along with a number of other synergistic ingredients which makes it significantly more effective. MaxGXL has human clinical studies with phenomenal results, and countless testimonies from people who have used it over the years.
Cellgevity is our latest and greatest glutathione enhancing product which uses a far more effective cysteine compound called Riboceine. It contains most of the extra ingredients which are in MaxGXL, plus a number of additional powerful and scientifically validation ingredients. Cellgevity is a significantly more powerful product than MaxGXL.
MAX Testimonials
Listen how Phoebe tells you how she overcame back pain and inflammation due to horseback riding accident. With so much joy, she can sleep better.
Listen how Corey tells you how he was amazed on overcoming inflammation and tremor of his damaged and numb left side body because of a car accident. It changed his whole life then.

PET scans predict effectiveness of treatment for multidrug-resistant tuberculosis in HIV patients
ScienceDaily (May 24, 2011) With the deficiencies in knowledge of tuberculosis — as well as in the practices, programs and strategies used to combat the disease and co-infection with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) — the spread of multidrug-resistant (MDR) tuberculosis poses a major problem for the health care community. Research in the June issue of The Journal of Nuclear Medicine , however, shows that the use of 18F-FDG positron emission tomography (PET) scans can help to determine earlier if treatment for tuberculosis is working or if the disease is MDR. Tuberculosis and HIV have been linked since the AIDS epidemic began Continue reading

Irish Sausage source in PHX.
- scaheld May 17, 2009 01:50 PM
Anyone know of a store where you can buy Irish Sausage in Phoenix area, the kind you'd get in an Irish breakfast? Many thanks.
I've bought bangers from Whole Foods in Scottsdale, though I put them in the freezer, so haven't tried them yet. Not pre-packaged, $6.50/lb at the meat counter.
Have you checked with Schriener's (sp) on 7th? They have more great sausage than anyplace I have seen.
well, i know the meat store does irish bacon. its kinda close to what you are looking for ;)
It may not change any replies so far, but what I'm really looking for is the Black Pudding (blood sausage).
The Irish Gift Shop at Priest and Univ in Tempe used to sell Irish Sausages(frozen). Havne't been in there in a couple years so don't know if they still do but probably worth a call to see. If they don't have them anymore they can probably tell you where they're available.
There's a tiny British food shop in Scottsdale on Thomas & Hayden (next to Totties)... he stocks mostly dry goods but has a freezer with Irish bacon, sausages, etc. Not sure if they have the blood kind. http://www.britishgourmet.com/
Keep in mind that for years there were restrictions on importing pork products from overseas (my Brit dad always smuggled bacon and kippers when coming back from Europe - stinky luggage!). I'm not sure of current laws, but a lot of the Irish/Brit varitieties sold at speciality shops in the US are made domestically. Purists will say Euro pork has a different flavor due to US producers breeding for lean, but maybe that's changing with speciality ranchers regionally. Let us know what you find!
I know this is an old post but hopefully it will still help.There is a sausage shop on 7th street north of Osbourn that has fresh homemade sausages from all over the world. It is called Schreiners. They carry the blood sausage you are looking for. Also they have the Bangers that are common in Irish breakfast. I hope this helps.

No problem!
Daft Punk circa 1995, Thomas Bangalter (l) and Guy-Manuel de Homem-Christo (r)
Thomas Bangalter and Guy-Manuel de Homem-Christo, the pair that make up Daft Punk, have always held that the most important thing for them is their music and that they wanted to keep their private lives as private as possible.
"As a listener, you are always curious of seeing people's faces. But I think it's quite ordinary people that make the music." - Thomas Bangalter, Jockey Slut, 1996
As their career began to take off with the release of their 1996 debut album Homework, the duo would wear masks and digitally obscure their faces in press releases and photographs. Their desire to remain private was even written into their contract with Virgin Records.
In fact, there is only one full-length article with an unmasked photo-shoot of the pair, Jockey Slut in 1996.
As they began work on their follow-up album, Discovery, they sought out a more permanent way to hide their identities. They enlisted the help of renowed special effects company Alterian, Inc. to create their robotic alter egos. You can watch a short documentary about the making of the helmets HERE.
They debuted their robot selves in 1999, creating their 9/99/99 origin story.
"We were doing a track and our sampler crashed and exploded and there were sparks. We were hurt a little bit so we had to make a little surgery and then we became robots." - Thomas Bangalter, The Face, November 2000
Bangalter (silver, l) and Homem-Christo (gold, r)
The helmets have gone through several variations throughout the duo's career. The Discovery era helmets were equipped with LED lights and both Thomas and Guy-Man could program their visors to read text. THIS is an old MTV interview were Thomas uses the visor to speak.
For their third album, Human After All, they did away with the LED lights and text capabilities to create sleeker helmets.
The helmets have basically stayed the same since then save for some minor tweaks - mouth shape on Thomas' helmet, the wires getting covered on Guy-Man's, etc. But the look has become iconic.
"Looking at robots is not like looking at an idol. It's not like a human being, so it's more like a mirror - the energy people send to the stage bounces back and everybody has a good time rather than focusing on us." - Guy-Manuel de Homem-Christo, Pitchfork, 2013

Roberta's is offering an hour long walking/tasting tour of the restaurant's garden this Thursday 7/17 at 6pm! Buy tickets for the garden tour @ http://www.brownpapertickets.com/event/775599
Scarlet Runner Bean Flowers
We all love tasty, snappy scarlet runner beans but did you know that you can also eat the bright scarlet flower before it produces a bean? Roberta's Scarlet Runner Beans are quickly growing up the spine of our hoop house, and we are promptly snipping the flowers before they produce beans. Why? Because we love the mild and crisp bean flavor of the flower and the exciting splash of scarlet it lends to our dishes.
Spring is here! Check out this video of our Garden getting ready to Spring into action!!
Having explored the wet (vegetable) markets by day searching for new varietals and eating copious amounts of street market food and MSG at night, our gardener is back from her winter break in Asia ready to start the growing season. In Hong Kong she stumbled around fish farms in the middle of the night to watch the harvest, snuck up onto rooftop farms in busy industrial sections, and hung out with the characters/activists that make up the urban farming community. All in hopes to bring back something new to Roberta's garden. Look out for Roberta's garden this spring!
All local vendors, mulled wine, and pizza, this Saturday & Sunday in the tiki grotto!

Things might get weird Halloween party @ Roberta's

Use the links below to navigate this page to find resources on bullying and cyberbullying:
After Phoebe Prince died, we asked students, What Can Be Done to Stop Bullying? Later that year, when Tyler Clementi committed suicide, we asked What Should the Punishment Be for Acts of Cyberbullying? Hundreds of students wrote in to discuss both questions. That summer, we also posted a collection of resources on bullying for teachers and parents.

WHO is Charice Pempengco? WHERE is she from?
WHAT treatments did Ms. Pempengco recently undergo? WHAT are the medical purposes of Botox injections?
WHEN was Botox approved by the Federal Drug Administration for cosmetic use?
WHY do some teenagers get Botox injections? WHY do some people condemn the use of Botox by teens?
HOW many Botox injections did teenagers receive last year? HOW have various people reacted to the news of Ms. Pempengco's cosmetic treatments?
Carrie Montgomery is a New York Times scholarship winner '09 and intern, and a sophomore at Columbia University.
When J.D. Salinger died in 2010, Charles McGrath wrote his Times obituary. In it, he describes the initial reaction to "Catcher" and how reading it used to be a "rite of passage":
Though not everyone, teachers and librarians especially, was sure what to make of it, "Catcher" became an almost immediate best seller, and its narrator and main character, Holden Caulfield, a teenager newly expelled from prep school, became America's best-known literary truant since Huckleberry Finn.
With its cynical, slangy vernacular voice (Holden's two favorite expressions are "phony" and "goddam"), its sympathetic understanding of adolescence and its fierce if alienated sense of morality and distrust of the adult world, the novel struck a nerve in cold war America and quickly attained cult status, especially among the young. Reading "Catcher" used to be an essential rite of passage, almost as important as getting your learner's permit.
Does "Catcher in the Rye" still speak to teenagers today? How do you teach it?
Below, some Times and Learning Network resources you might use along with our extensive new Text to Text lesson, which pairs a famous passage from "Catcher" with a Sunday Review article, "The Case for Delayed Adulthood."
Teaching ideas based on New York Times content.
Overview | How is the adolescent brain different from the adult brain? What have neuroscientists discovered about the teenage brain through brain imaging technology? What implications does brain imaging research on teenagers have for reconsidering societal rules and responsibilities for this age group? In this lesson, students review recent scientific research on the teenage brain and hold a symposium on paper to discuss its implications to topics related to teens' freedom and accountability.
Materials | Video projection equipment, computers with Internet access (optional), chart paper, highlighters, scissors, tape
Warm-up | In their journals, students create a two-column chart with the headings "Adult Brain" and "Teen Brain," or provide students with The Learning Network's Venn Diagram handout (PDF). Have students use the graphic organizer to compare and contrast the adult brain with the teenage brain as they watch the following video clips. Read more…

White iPhone 4 Delayed Due to Glass Touchscreen Issues
CREDIT: Apple
Manufacturing difficulties at a touchscreen glass maker in China is the reason Apple's much anticipated white iPhone 4 wont be available until the end of July, more than a month after the release of the black version, new reports allege.
Lens Technology, whose client line-up includes names such as Motorola, Nokia and Samsung, is the factory responsible for processing, pressing and painting the iPhone 4 glass. According to an Engadget report, a worker from Lens' quality control department has allegedly admitted that the company is experiencing painting-related issues.
The manufacturer is apparently working out kinks involving the mix of paint and opacity. This setback may not only further delay the debut of the white iPhone 4, it could also limit the number of devices that will be readily available to meet the consumer demand.
The day before the iPhone 4 hit stores, Apple issued a press release stating it had encountered manufacturing difficulties and that the phone wouldn't be available until mid-July. A follow-up press release then indicated an end-of-July ship date.
A new date for its arrival has not yet been set.

Long before people were talking about the Internet of Things, Linux-based home automation systems were available. Here are some of today's most interesting Linux-powered home gadgets.
Linux has long been both the cloud and the datacenter's favorite operating system, but it wasn't until CoreOS came along that anyone designed a Linux just for the cloud and datacenter.
From CDC's 40MHz "supercomputer" to 2014's Tianhe-2's 33.86 PetaFlops per second, supercomputers are continuing to push computing to its ultimate limits.
Can Google's Rebel Alliance of Android and Chrome OS finally dent Microsoft's Windows Evil Empire? I expect we'll see this desktop operating system war start in late 2014.
The latest list of the fastest supercomputers in the world is out -- and not only does Linux rule, it's almost eliminated all of its competition.

The knife pierced her core, shattering the glass around it and leaking blue matter through her and out of her. She gasped, her eyes meeting his as her body spasmed. As she shut down, she managed to gasp a few words. "You s-s-s-s-see?" she sputtered, her voice box glitching and warping. "I w-was right…." And then she fell limp.
Something inside of him snapped as soon as Sunshine's body went limp and he was hit with the sudden realization of what he had done, and her accusations seemed to ring entirely true. He let go of the knife as if it was burning a hole in his hand. "Su…S-Sunny?" He whimpered, cupping a hand over his mouth.
"C'm-m-m-mo-mon, ya go-gotta sa-ay somethin'!" He inched forward, looking for any sign of life left. Her core was dull and blue matter bled through her shirt and her optics were lifeless and just as dull.
Of course, she couldn't say anything. Sunshine was gone, her last act of the world being trying to destroy her best friend with hate in her heart, and now she was dead. Her body was broken and useless, her mind abandoned.

Sorry late post! As usual ;-)
Okay, I just wanted to say that I am having a blast with life.
Just one problem! :-(
I have changed my number but I am undecided on who all should I give it. The problem is, I changed the number because of a few characters that had taken upon themselves to make my life hell…. ugghh!
It was really nerve wracking!
So I think I will only give the new number to my family which is the only fool proof way to be safe.
