1. Begin by asking students to think about their day-to-day interactions with animals. What types of animals do they interact with? What do their interactions consist of? (Answers will vary.) Encourage students to be thorough and look at their interactions with many different types of animal – this could include feeding pets, swatting flies, eating a hamburger – any situation where animals become part of the students' lives.
2. Pick four or five animals that came up during the class discussion. These may vary according to students' answers or regional animals, but they should be different kinds of animals that inspire different kinds of interactions (i.e. Dog, Fish, Spider, Squirrel). Divide students into four groups and assign an animal to each group. Give each group a large sheet of paper or posterboard. Give students 5-10 minutes to think about any and all ways that they might interact with this sort of animal, and to write down all of their answers on the sheet of paper.
3. When time is up, post the sheets of paper at the front of the room. Have students read some of their answers aloud. Compare the interactions with the different animals. Ask students the following questions based on their answers:
- Why do we interact with these animals in these ways?
- How does our behavior impact these animals?
- How does the animal's behavior impact us?
- How does this animal impact our habitat or environment?
- Do our actions have an impact on the animal's habitat or environment?
4. Tell students that while these interactions impact animals and their habitats on a local level, all over the world animal populations and habitats are affected both positively and negatively by humans and human behavior. Ask students to reflect on their observations about human-animal interaction in their lives, and think of some examples of ways that human behavior has an impact on wild animals. (Answers will vary, but should include negative effects such as habitat destruction, hunting, etc.) Ask students what they think humans could do about some of the negative effects they have on wild animals. (Conservation, preservation.)
1. Tell students they're going to see some examples of humans interacting with a specific wildlife population – giraffes in Africa. Explain that, like many of the animals they interact with on a regular basis, giraffes are not endangered or at risk. However, they are susceptible to pressure from the human population. Ask students to think of what some of these pressures might be. (Answers should include hunting, habitat destruction such trees cut down for firewood and to make room for livestock, expanding human population, competition for food and water resources.)
2. Ask students to consider why conservation efforts would be made to save the giraffe population if it is not currently at risk? (Answers may vary but should amount to "preventing the population from becoming endangered.) Explain to students that while the giraffe population in general is not at risk, some subspecies may be in danger of extinction. Remind students that giraffes, as well as many other species of wildlife, are vulnerable to habitat loss and habitat fragmentation due to human expansion, and by making efforts now it may prevent negative effects on the animal populations later. Tell students that this process of managing natural resources, namely animals and their habitats, is known as conservation.
3. Ask students to think of what humans can do to counteract the negative effects on the giraffe population and habitat, and to write their thoughts in the first column of the Conservation Strategies Organizer. Tell students that translocation is one of the main strategies used in conserving the giraffe population, and give students a working definition of translocation (the capture, movement, and release of wildlife from one location to another.) Tell students that they will be watching some video clips that explore some of these conservation efforts.
4. FRAME the first clip by telling students that they will watch a video clip featuring wildlife relocation workers in the field, interacting with giraffes. Give students a FOCUS by asking them to note characteristics of giraffes in the wild. PLAY the first clip, "In the Wild." FOLLOW UP with students by asking them to share their observations of characteristics of giraffes in the wild. (Answers may include: little to no group structure, no leader, not much known about community life, camouflaging themselves in trees, dark markings, losing their habitat.) Ask students how the relocation workers account for these characteristics in their work. (Answers may include maintaining the fence, darting giraffes from helicopters in areas where there are no trees, approaching giraffes since they don't perceive humans as predators, covering giraffes' ears and eyes to reduce their stress.)
5. FRAME the second video clip by telling students they'll see another example of how the relocation company operates to transport giraffes. Give students a FOCUS by asking them to note potential positive and negative aspects of the corralling process, for both the humans and the giraffes. PLAY the second clip, "On the Move." FOLLOW UP with students by reviewing their observations from watching the video clip. (Answers may include: using a different method to capture giraffes in a wooded area, humans in danger of being kicked by giraffes, giraffes being scared, some giraffes calmly entering truck, possibility of giraffes charging, giraffes unhappy in small area, nerve-wracking for humans, sad or uncomfortable for humans to watch.)
6. FRAME the next two clips by telling students they will see two examples of areas to which giraffes are relocated. Give students a FOCUS by asking them to note the benefits of the new habitats to the giraffes. PLAY the third clip, "New Digs." FOLLOW UP with students by asking what they noticed in the clip. (Answers may include: private game farm, giraffes attended to by a vet, safe space to run, new open spaces, personal care.) PLAY the last clip, "Giraffe Manor." FOLLOW UP with students by asking what they noticed in the clip. (Answers may include: 20 minutes from Nairobi, sanctuary for one herd of giraffe, on front lawn of a hotel, dining room for animals, a LOT of human interaction, habitat created to save Rothschild giraffes.) Ask students to compare and contrast the two habitats that they saw in the video clips.
7. Ask students to reflect on the video clips they have seen, and how humans behaved and interacted with the giraffes while capturing them and at the game farm and Giraffe Manor. Ask students to record the methods and practices of conservation and translocation shown in the video clips in the second column of the Conservation Strategies Organizer. Compare and contrast.
8. Project on a screen (or write on the board or a piece of chart paper) some of the more priority species for conservation. These include: tigers, jaguars, crocodiles, Asian elephants, gorillas, African wild dogs, bison, and sea turtles. Ask students to think about the habitats in which these animals live and how they interact with humans. Engage the class in a discussion of how the conservation strategies noted on their organizers might be applied to more at-risk or endangered wildlife populations.
1. By now students have seen many different aspects of the conservation efforts in Africa, and the different people involved. Ask students to name some of the different jobs or careers in conservation that they noticed. As students call out their answers, make a list on the board or a piece of chart paper. (Answers may include: company owner, pilot, corraller, darter, veterinarian, driver, animal handler, journalist,hotel worker, biologist, researcher, fundraiser, geographer, etc.)
2. Tell students that, as they can see, there are many different ways to participate in the conservation industry. Ask students which career from the list they would choose, if they were to be involved in the conservation industry. Students should write a brief essay on why they chose that career, and what they would do in that position.
Students can visit the following Web sites for more information on the conservation industry and movements:
- Interview with Petronel Nieuwoudt at the NATURE: Tall Blondes Web site
- The Game Capture School
- GCC: African Fund for Endangered Wildlife
- The Giraffe Manor
- Wildlife Translocation Association

There's no one dish supper quite on the level of a great paella. It combines protein--sometimes several of them--with carbohydrates and then, for good measure, adds some vegetables. The one big drawback to paella is the interminable time a good one takes to make. So this recipe from Bon Appetit caught my eye when the magazine put it in a feature called 'Fresh and Easy Dinners'. It actually toppped their list, and was pictured on their cover. If you're ever had a paella in Spain, you know it is hardly 'quick' and involves a special paella pan. But this one uses any heavy skillet you have on hand and gets dinner on the table in about an hour. Considering my memories of paella, that's simply astonishing.

Kwazii Cat Octonaut Hat
Hello everyone I've started crocheting again here in Germany. At the moment my daughter is obsessed with the Octonauts and so I've made her a Kwazii Cat hat, her favourite character from the series.
Here's a pic of the character himself.
After I posted it on facebook a friend commissioned one for her daughter who also loves Octonauts. This is how that one turned out.
I like this one better and I'm thinking of undoing my daughters and adding the better looking hat and ears.

Getting Ready for Christmas, Pepa Pig Beanie
When you are a crafter especially a crocheter Christmas preparations seem to start very early. It seems you can never have enough time to make all the handmade gifts you have planned. This year I am planing to make beanies for my nephews and nieces. I have asked them all what their favourite cartoon character in order to know what kind of novelty hat I will make them. One of them loves Pepa pig so I've made this beanie below.
It's pretty cute and funny at the same time because of the snout but I did have lots of fun making it. Wish I knew how to write a pattern then I could make it again or share it with others.
The next challenge I have is a Fireman Sam helmet/ beanie. Wish me luck!

A very long time
It's been a very long time since I've posted but I have been thinking about this blog a lot. I feel bad that I haven't given it any time for such a LONG time. To be honest I haven't been crocheting much at all up until recently. I have sent out some invitations to people who want to join recently and I have noticed that there are not that many people adding posts anymore. What do people want to do about that? Are there any of you out there that have any ideas on how to rejuvenated this blog? A way that we can work out who is still interested in being a coauthor and who is no longer interested?
I am open to suggestions so please leave comments.

Crochet meets Loom Bands
My daughter is in to the Loom Band craze and has used You tube in a positive way to learn a new skill/craft and how to follow visual instructions. After making some pencil covers she spotted my crochet hook and look what she made for me! Slushy mummy moment.
Works so well and is nice to hold that since then I have asked her to make another for my favourite hook.
A different take on using pencil grips on your hooks.
A bit more info here.
My daughter's blog features a few more of her creations here.http://www.themousecottagecrafts.blogspot.co.uk/
She know wants to learn crochet!

Sveum On Samardzija Trade: 'Very, Very Far-Fetched'
Cubs CentralShop for Cubs Gear

Sports Fan Insider
(CBS) Silly.
That's the word Cubs manager Dale Sveum used when he was asked of the possibility of Jeff Samardzija being moved before Wednesday's 3 p.m. CT non-waiver trade deadline.
"If somebody asks, sure," Sveum said on Tuesday. "It's not my job, so I don't know exactly what goes on in those kind of meetings like that. But if somebody brings up a name … but it's not realistic."
Samardzija, 28 and in his sixth season with the rebuilding Cubs, is 6-9 with a 3.75 ERA in 22 starts this season. He is under the Cubs' control until the 2016 season.
Sveum acknowledged that it's ultimately team president Theo Epstein and general manager Jed Hoyer's decision, but he doubts the duo will move the right-hander.
"This is me speaking, not the president," Sveum said. "I think it's very, very far-fetched to think you've got a guy under control for that long and possibly a No. 1 guy, to do anything with. Those are all just things that pop up. Obviously … sure you'll listen."

Managing The Region's Deer Population
They may be pretty wildlife, but they can also be a Lyme disease-carrying nuisance and driving hazard. The region's deer population and how it's managed continues to be the subject of debate. In the past several years, the National Park Service and regional parks managers have used controlled hunts to thin deer numbers. But animal rights advocates object, saying there are more humane and effective methods that should be considered, like long-term birth control vaccinations. We explore the issues.

The Denver Broncos held off a late comeback by the San Diego Chargers as Peyton Manning completed a huge pass to Julius Thomas on a 3rd-and-17 to move the chains. Denver moves on to the AFC Championship Game next Sunday against the New England Patriots at Sports Authority Field.
The Denver Broncos had a good drive going to begin the second half as Peyton Manning completed a 9-yard pass to Demaryius Thomas, setting up a Knowshon Moreno 3-yard rush for the first-down. Manning would throw again on first-down, connecting with Demaryius for another first-down. On 3rd-and-1, Manning would roll-out and find Wes Welker for the first as Denver kept marching down the field. On 3rd-and-6, Julius Thomas would jump resulting in a false start, moving Denver back to a 3rd-and-11 attempt. Manning would have Wes Welker on an over-the-top pass where Welker turned to catch it but couldn't haul it in. Denver would settle for a 45-yard field-goal as Matt Prater has made 23 consecutive kicks from under 50-yards out. Denver would take the 17-0 lead.
On San Diego's ensuing possession, Phillip Rivers found wide-out Keenan Allen for a 16-yard strike and the first catch from a San Diego receiver. The Broncos nearly had a take-away as Rivers next pass was behind Allen that tipped directly to safety Duke Ihenacho who couldn't control the ball. Chargers were set up on a 3rd-and-8 as Rivers found Ronnie Brown across the middle for the first but would be called back as Ladarius Green was called for pass-interference on an illegal pick. Chargers were forced to another 3rd-and-18 as Rivers pass went through the hands of Green, forcing a San Diego punt.
Peyton Manning started off Denver's drive with a quick-strike to wide receiver Eric Decker for a 19-yard gain. Later on in the drive, Denver was set-up with a 3rd-and-1 and running back Knowshon Moreno would get stuffed for a loss of two, setting up a Matt Prater field-goal attempt. Prater's attempt from 47-yards out was no good, snapping his 23 consecutive makes from under 50-yards out.
Phillip Rivers would drop-back to pass and none of his wide-receivers were open so the quarterback took it himself for a 6-yard rush. San Diego would strike for a big play as Rivers found former second-round pick by the Denver Broncos, Eddie Royal for a 30-yard completion and the first-down. On 3rd-and-4, Rivers found rookie Keenan Allen in the back of the end-zone for a 16-yard touchdown pass to bring Denver's lead down to 17-7. San Diego's touchdown drive consisted of just 6-plays for 63-yards in just 3:08.
On the ensuing kick-off attempt, Denver's kick-returner Trindon Holliday would take a kick 105-yards to the house but would be called back to an illegal block in the back call on Omar Bolden. Denver would face a 3rd-and-7 as Manning looked for Wes Welker but the ball was overthrown. However, there were two penalties on the defensive side of the ball as San Diego was called for holding and pass interference, resulting in an automatic first-down. Manning would find Julius Thomas on a 3rd-and-2 crossing route for 17-yards, setting up the first-down. Knowshon Moreno would have a big gain on the ground as the half back rushed for the first-down along with the first-down, setting Denver up at the ten yard-line. On 2nd-and-Goal, Peyton Manning would hand it off to Knowshon Moreno for the 3-yard touchdown. Denver would take the 24-to-7 lead with 8:12 remaining in the ball game.
Phillip Rivers would start out San Diego's drive with a quick short-pass to Antonio Gates for a gain of 5-yards. Rivers would test Denver's cornerback Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie twice and he would break up both passes resulting in a 4th-and-5 with the season on the line. On that 4th-and-5, Rivers would throw a deep-pass down-field to Keenan Allen for a 45-yard gain as he beat former Charger Quentin Jammer. San Diego would strike for their second score of the game as Rivers found his favorite target Allen for his second touchdown catch of the game as the Chargers brought the lead within ten, 24-14 with just 5:43 remaining in the game.
On the ensuing kick-off, the San Diego Chargers tried an onside kick attempt that would be recovered by Richard Marshall of the Chargers. Shaun Phillips would get to Rivers once again for his second sack of the game but the Chargers would bounce back. San Diego would strike for two big plays to Keenan Allen for 18-yards and once again as Denver's secondary was getting exposed. Denver would hold San Diego to a 4th-and-5 field-goal attempt and this time Nick Novak would connect from 30-yards out to bring the Denver lead within one score, 24-17 with 3:53 to play.
San Diego would elect to kick-off instead of the onside kick as they pooch kicked it to Trindon Holliday who then ran out-of-bounds at the 27-yard-line. On their first play, offensive lineman Zane Beadles would jump as Denver would be penalized with a false-start. They would run it with Moreno on the 1st-and-15 and would get tackled for a loss of two. Denver would throw on 2nd-and-17 but his pass to Demaryius Thomas was dropped as they faced a long 3rd-and-17. Manning was facing pressure and found Julius Thomas on a tippy-toe catch to pick up 21-yards for the first-down. Denver would run the ball with Moreno, picking up 3-yards as San Diego used their second time-out with 2:57 remaining. Denver would run it again with Moreno and this time he would pick up just one yard as they faced a 3rd-and-6. Peyton Manning would find Julius Thomas on a big 9-yard catch for the first-down as the Chargers called their final time-out with 2:02 left in the game. 2nd-and-7, Moreno would get the ball and rush for six yards resulting in a 3rd-and-1 with San Diego's season hanging on by a thread. On 3rd-and-1, Knowshon Moreno would pound it up the middle for the first-down as Denver ended any hopes for a San Diego comeback, winning the game by the final score of 24-17.
The Denver Broncos will advance to next Sunday's match-up with the New England Patriots in the AFC Championship Game that begins at 3:00 PM ET, 1:00 PM MT.

Teen Stabbings Are All The Rage
Early this morning, right smack in the middle of rush hour commute, a high school student was stabbed exiting a subway station near Union Square. At 9 a.m., outside 104 East 14th Street, a 16-year-old climbed the station steps and was chased by three or four other teens who ultimately caught up to and stabbed the victim with either an ice pick or a screwdriver. It seems the victim, a junior at Chelsea High School, is now in stable condition at Bellevue Hospital and police have taken a 13-year-old suspect into custody. Just last week, a 20-year-old man was stabbed for dancing with the wrong girl at a nightclub. We'll wait on tenterhooks for the motive behind this attack.

9/9/10 - Red Velvet Cupcakes Win Me Over Every Time
The opening salvo of lunch was a plate of Rosie's Vermont Hickory Smoked Beef Jerky and the remaining Salt 'n Pepper Baked Pop Chips.
This was followed by a delicious salad featuring baby spinach, green beans, yellow bell pepper, and Sungold cherry tomatoes with my homemade herb-Dijon vinaigrette.
A little later that afternoon, I had a nice hunk of that wonderful Parmesan-Reggiano.
The Phillies were squaring off against their rival New York Mets that night, so I went to Shorty's to DJ before and after the game, as well as during the commercials. Now I never visit Shorty's without eating, so on this night, I opted for what they call Rondon's Crab Cake with Crab Fries.
Some crabcakes are loaded with filler, but that ain't the case here. I honestly have no idea how the cake stays together because it tastes as though it's nothing but crabmeat. Spread on a little tartar sauce, add a couple dashes of Tabasco, put that baby on a soft bun that feels as though it's been buttered, and we are in business!
Crab Fries are a regional specialty that seems to stretch from the Chesapeake Bay to Philly. Shorty's already has damn good fries, but these are loaded with Old Bay. I confess that I'm not the world's biggest Old Bay fan, but if you like powerful seasoning with a salty kick, Crab Fries are just the thing for you.
A friend of mine was visiting from LA, so a couple of our college buddies agreed to meet at Shorty's for a few beers. Later, his girlfriend joined us, and bless her heart, she brought some Red Velvet Cupcakes, which we cut into fourths and shared.
Ladies, I'll say it now. If you really want to win over your man's friends, bring them Red Velvet Cupcakes. After one bite, this woman could do no wrong in my eyes. I was sold. I'm ready to greenlight a marriage!

What Would John Lennon Look Like If He Was Alive Today?
October 11, 2010 4:30 AM
Seeing how we just passed what would have been of the Beatle's 70th birthday, a mock-up photo of Lennon as he would look today was created by a digital artist.
The photo is digitally aged, and assumes that Lennon would opt for a shorter haircut … and the same old round-frame glasses.
I would think he'd be a little more wrinkly, seeing how he would have to had endured decades of hanging around Yoko… What do you think?

Can't-miss places in Noe, if any? New to the neighborhood.
- carbonara Jul 2, 2011 12:32 AM
We're about to move to Noe, and we've spent enough time in SF--especially in the wondrous Mission--to know we're not quite moving to the food mecca of this city. Which is okay, as we'll merrily walk/Bart/Muni/drive for food, and we're so excited to be settling for a while in a city containing (or near) La Taqueria, Aziza, Bar Tartine, Lahore Karahi, El Farolito, Koi Palace, and on and on.
That said, for days/nights when we don't want to venture too far from our apartment, what are can't-miss spots in the neighborhood? We appreciate good price-to-quality ratios, but are willing to splurge if it's worthwhile.
So far, from Chowhound-trawling, I've pulled up this list:
- Very excited to try:
La Ciccia
Noe Valley Cheese Shop
- Going to end up trying, though (for now) less excited by:
Ristorante Bacco
- Have already tried:
Barney's (fine, didn't fall in love)
Lovejoy's (have near-rabid affection for tea and scones, so will go back, though it wasn't top-notch)
Savor (pleasant)
What's missing? Any thoughts on (any) (good) Asian food would be particularly welcome. Thanks very much in advance!

Contigo would be the main missing one I would put on the list. Henry's Hunan works in a pinch. Firefly has its partisans. The newish branch of The Little Chihuahua is very good and I would certainly go more if I lived closer to 24th/Castro. Pasta Gina isn't a restaurant but is known for its meatball sandwich.
Everything else has a reputation of fair-to-middling (or worse):
Swatdee is average for a Thai place. Regent Thai is maybe marginally better. Never been to Rin's.
Cafe Ponte...nice cafe vibe when it's sunny, average food
Hamano is fine for a neighborhood sushi place, but not much sets it apart
Alice's/Eric's: OK for what they are, good deals at lunch but IMO crushed by Henry's Hunan in quality
Casa Mexicana: don't see any reason to go here after Little Chihuahua opened
Basso's: had a subpar visit a few years back, never felt inclined to go back
India Clay Oven is OK...part of a chain, didn't think it was anything special when dining in but friends like their takeout
Pomelo: interesting concept, execution...predictably meh.
None of the pizza places have a good record. The bagel places manage to stay in business but I've never heard anything great either.
The ones I've never tried nor heard much about, but seem worth a bit of exploring: Noeteca on Dolores and Lupa.

re: bigwheel042
Noeteca is lovely, especially since they make their flatbread in a toaster oven. Good wines by the glass.
I'll concur with what's above. Eric's is inedible, and I love Henry's. And as noted, there's too much fancy food. Incanto and Contigo are not every night kinds of restaurants.
Generally you'll do better going in any direction a few blocks--in particular to Mission between Cesar Chavez and Cortland, where you have ICHI Sushi (leagues better than Tataki), Pastores (now open till 10), Locavore, Angkor Borei (delivers, and better than any of the nearby Southeast Asian options), San Miguel, Inka's, and many others. Real not faux ethnic food, and at much better prices.
There have been good reports on All Seasons (?) the Chinese restaurant in Diamond Heights that replaced Yet Wah. Haven't tried it yet.

re: Windy
Agreed, for ethnic eats there are lots of excellent and cheaper options on that stretch. In addition to these I thought my one visit to La Paisa (Honduran, also serves Salvadoran/Mexican dishes) was pretty good. And there are numerous spots to get a good pupusa, though I wish Balompie #3 were a little closer.
The ones I wouldn't bother with on this part of Mission are the Chinese restaurants and, oddly, the taquerias. It's a little strange that everything between 26th and Glen Park is a burrito wasteland. Has anyone tried some of these? I pass them a million times and never know what (if any) dishes are special there:
Oye Managua (has a decent reputation, didn't like it much the one time I went - salt/flavor ratio was too high)
Brisas de Acapulco (ordered a burrito one night when in a hurry, but seemed like their real wheelhouse is seafood so I don't feel like I had a representative experience)
Nena's (was pleasantly surprised by this place on a first visit, but couldn't make head or tail of whether the Mexican or Salvadoran sides of the menu were better. Saw a few people tucking in to big soups)
El Patio (never been)

re: bigwheel042
I had a decent soup at Brisas de Acapulco once, but your general assessment is right on. El Patio has leaden tamales. Cancun was decent long ago but no longer.
El Zocalo is the best of the bunch and open until 2 or 3 for cheap pupusas and friendly service. Do they have burritos? Agreed that Balompie is better Salvadorean, but that area a little sketchy as it gets late.
What did you order at La Paisa? I've always been curious about that and Playa Azul.
San Miguel has a few Mexican dishes on its menu; I tend to forget it's there. I love the tostadas de camarones there and the fresh liquados.

re: Windy
I had the pincho a la olanchana - nothing fancy, just a tasty typical Central American meal of skewered steak+sausage with rice and beans.
Playa Azul I visited once when starving and took down an entire red snapper by myself. It was good, but my friends all agreed that we'd probably had better seafood. Might be worth another try. We always have a good meal at San Miguel. I have a bit of a soft spot for Los Panchos also - they aren't open as late as El Zocalo and the pupusas might not be quite on that level, but El Zocalo's service seems like it can be really slow at times.
Oh, and I personally detest Cancun but that may have as much to do with their hated toasting of the tortilla as with any downhill slide.
I agree that for Noe Valley proper Contigo should be on your list for slightly higher end/not quite everyday eating. Bacco is actually a go to restaurant for me-because the food is good and the room is quiet-if I want to have a serene meal and/or hear my companion(s). For a casual meal I like Hahn's Hibachi-for their Korean Version of a Cheesesteak sandwich, their Bibimbap and their noodle soups. Slightly outside of the boundries of Noe-but potentially closer to your home-depending on your location I like Blue Plate for modern, eclectic Californian on the border on the Mission and Noe Valley.
When I lived in Noe my favorite almost in the neighborhood but not quite restaurant was Chez Spencer -it's really truly in the Mission and probably not walkable from your home but don't miss it if you like French. Possibly walkable but also firmly in the Mission are Foreign Cinema -for a unique SF experience and very good food and Dosa for interesting Indian-oh and if you like Indian you may want to try take away or delivered Indian pizza from Zante's -it's really hard to describe but trying it is, I think, a Mission/Noe Glen Park right of passage. Speaking of Glen Park which is only a BART stop away or a longish walk Gialina's is good for Pizza, Petit Robert is good for Moules and other French Bistro standards. Glen Park is also home to my favorite Taqueria in the city (and I am definitely not alone in this) La Coroneta. Finally if you are movie going types you may find yourselves in West Portal where Roti does good Modern Indian.
One last thing-if you are nearby keep your eye on Amber Jack Sushi-it's ok/fine for neighborhood sushi but recently they did a pop up ramen restaurant with housemade ramen that I heard was very good. The owners of Pie Bar / Chenery Park were on hand to help so it seems like there might be some interesting collaboration going on these days.

Oh, this is great. We can't wait. Thank you.
The mentions of Zante and Angkor Borei bring to mind a follow-up thought--other than the places mentioned, are there other good restaurants that will at least deliver to Noe?
re: carbonara
Spicy Bite will deliver, and they are totally underrated for Indian, IMO -- maybe because their dining room is so bleak. They have a chef's special menu that offers some very rare-around-here Chinese-cooked-Indian-style plates that are worth checking out. But their menu is very good, top to bottom. Infinitely better than the dreadful Clay Oven. We order the Indian pizza from Zante, but if we want Indian food, we order from Spicy Bite.

re: BernalKC
I agree Spicy Bite is a hidden gem with a slightly depressing dining room.

re: artychokeasana
What's good here? I was interested in their Indo-Chinese dishes (they are maybe the only restaurant in SF offering this cuisine) and was underwhelmed by an overly salty fried rice. Are other parts of the menu better bets?
re: bigwheel042
Our favorites: dal (seriously good dal), nan, any of their veggie dishes, any tikka masala especially the chicken, biryani, decent tadoori... the only dish I'd avoid was their fish curry. I have had some overly salty dishes. One time their hot&sour soup was way over salted -- but its still on our must-order list.
re: carbonara
Keep your fingers crossed that Lotus Garden (Vietnamese) recovers from the fire and reopens. They were the best local delivery option.
Angkor Borei delivers, as do Pad Thai and Udupi Palace on Valencia. I haven't gotten delivery from Udupi, but the food is delicious and cheap.
Amberjack is closed/closing/for sale. But walk the extra couple of blocks to ICHI.
I like La Corneta too, but from Noe, the branch at Mission and 23rd is closer than the one in Glen Park.

I never really thought the La Coroneta on Mission was as good...but it's been a few years-so if you've been at it's as good-I'll give it a try-sometimes that location is more convenient for me too.
I didn't know Amberjack was for sale. It was definitely open about a week ago for the Ramen dinner I referred to.
How is that Nepalese place on Cortland? Is it still there?
re: artychokeasana
Little Nepal was good last time I ate there, but it's been a while. I like Piqueo's (modern Peruvian compared to Inka's) a lot too.

re: Windy
Heh, yes, I've started taking reading and taking notes. We just went to La Mar for lunch today for our last SF meal before we move here, and were pretty disappointed with all but the pisco sours, so we're now doubly excited about trying Inka's, and now Piqueo, too.

Rin's Thai = don't expect Lers Ros, but perfect example of neighborhood Thai with a Cal-fresh spin. She makes everything from scratch, even the tom kha (she digs it out of the coconut herself.) The salmon rolls, though not really Thai, are worth it.

Just wanted to say thank you for all the recommendations. After a week in Noe (sans 99% of our stuff, i.e., no pots, pans, or utensils), we've tried several of these recommendations, and we are really (really) looking forward to trying many more. So far, Spicy Bite's delivery is the clear winner of the bunch. Henry's Hunan lunch is satisfying--it's going to be a mainstay. Locavore's brunch was a little disappointing, starting with nearly inedible biscuits. (The service was so nice that we wanted to love the place, though.) Incanto was weirdly lackluster, we thought, excepting their olives. The olives rocked. And Bar Tartine's new incarnation nearly broke our hearts--we'd loved the old Bar Tartine so much! Plus, we love Hungarian food so much! How did the combination of the two come out so strangely? We liked our appetizers (roe salad and cold cherry soup) but our meat dishes made us sad. However--Spicy Bite! That place warms our hearts. Finally, we've gotten very fond of the coffee from, of all places, Spin City, as in the laundromat. Going to continue to eat our way down this list.

re: carbonara
Was that just one visit at Incanto? If so, I hope it was an off night. I really liked them.
What did you have that disappointed?
re: drewskiSF
We had a salumi plate, the excellent olives, the handkerchief pasta and pork ragù, and a tomato-full pasta that is already half-gone from my memory. The pasta flavors were generally dull, and, given the season, there seemed to be no excuse for the utter dearth of tomato deliciousness. The salumi was similarly underwhelming--again, it was as if the flavor volume had been turned down. I hope it was an off-night, too. What did you like there?
re: carbonara
My favorites were the sweetbreads and the pasta with the cured tuna heart.
re: carbonara
I like Spin City, too. They serve Blue Bottle espresso and drip coffees.

I have always been very fond of Bacco, but haven't been in a few years. If you go, let me know how it was.
firefly isn't the destination restaurant that people often make it out to be, but it's definitely a solid choice for a nice night out if you're in the neighborhood
Le Zinc does a very nice brunch on the weekends. They have french style espresso drinks and a small but lovely patio in the back.
Le Zinc
4063 24th Street, San Francisco, CA 94114
Two more questions: in addition to Le Zinc, what are people's favorite places for brunch around here? Pastores is next on our brunch list. We've tried Noeteca's brunch, and thought it was fine, though not exciting. From reading around, it seems Toast and Chloe's are going to be both mobbed and disappointing.
Second question: is there any frozen yogurt here? (We're at Chavez and Church.) By frozen yogurt, I specifically mean the tart, yogurt-flavored variety. I'm bonkers about Fraiche's frozen yogurt, and badly wish there was one closer by, but in a pinch (and I find myself in these pinches, oh, weekly), I can survive on Red Mango and its ilk, too. I did hear that there was a Tuttimelon that closed.
We've just had a very happy few days of local eating, including more delivery from Spicy Bite and Henry's Hunan. Both were great--Spicy Bite's biryani and paneer tikka masala were yummy, as was Henry's shredded pork, ordered spicy. We also tried Spicy Bite's fish pakora, which CHers seem to have loved, but we weren't crazy about them. I think they suffered from being delivered, though--they must be better in-house. The people at Henry's Hunan are lovely. And we finally went to the Noe Valley Cheese Shop: from the moment I walked in and smelled the stink of many cheeses, I knew I was going to be very happy, and after a couple of purchases of gouda, including one truly salty, funky aged version, I am.
Also, we had the chance to go to La Ciccia. A plate of lamb was cooked perfectly, and the fregua with tuna heart was delectable, both in terms of how it tasted and in the mouthfeel of the pasta. We had a gnochetti with pork dish that we liked a little less--the gnochetti were excellent, but the pork sauce fell a little flat. We still miss Lupa and Al di la in New York, which are our favorite stateside Italian restaurants, but La Ciccia is going to be a more than satisfactory substitute. The La Ciccia staff, as noted elsewhere, were particularly warm and welcoming. We'll be going back there very soon. Also, the fact that our weekend included meals at old favorites like La Taqueria and Koi Palace reminds us of how glad we are to be living here.

re: carbonara
Noeteca is really a wine bar/cafe with a toaster. They have good flatbreads, but the food is kind of a victory over the lack of an oven and kitchen.
No frozen yogurt, just the freezer section at Whole Foods or Mitchell's. (Try the sorbets and frozen bananas with nuts.) There's a dessert place on Chenery and Diamond in Glen Park, but not really worth it. Check out Tyger's for an old fashioned coffee shop breakfast.
BTW Pastores is now open for dinner, and she serves the breakfast menu including chilequiles all day. No brunch lines. Chloe's has its fans, but I've never understood why.
Henry's classic dishes: smoked ham, cold chicken noodle salad, pot stickers, and the hot and sour soup. Velvet chicken is good too for people who don't like spicy food.
The cafe on the corner of Diamond and 24th (used to be the Diamond St Cafe) has pretty good pancakes.

re: carbonara
My favorite flavor there is the pumpkin, but it is not available year round. My 9-year-old liked the oreo cookie.
re: carbonara
The macapuno (sport coconut) is a really good and unusual flavor, though Mitchell's ice cream is fundamentally not to my taste. To me it has an unpleasant waxy finish.
re: carbonara
Skip flavors based on vanilla and stick to unusual fruits: macapuno, ube, peach. Pumpkin, ginger, and Mexican chocolate are delicious.
I also don't like their mango, despite it's popularity.
re: carbonara
The seasonal flavors at mitchells are my favorites (in addition to the aforementioned exotic fruits, the pumpkin pie, peppermint candy, and most importantly cinnamon snap - cinnamon ice cream with ginger snaps)
re: carbonara
Foreign Cinema has a very good brunch-and they take reservations. The house made pop tarts are well worth a try.
Boulevard Cafe is my odd ball suggestion. It is in Daily City so you'd have to drive-but if you are down that way-to see a movie in Colma, to get house supplies at a big box store like Target or Home Depot ot to visit Fort Funston Boulevard Cafe is good for a classic brunch with full bar. It almost has an east coast greek diner vibe-and it is in a renovated Lyon's space. It's a strictly neighboorhood type place but the owners are proud of it and spend plenty of time there and it shows. The prices are also very Daly City not SF. At lunch or dinner I have a hard time not ordering Zucchini Cakes-sadly not on the brunch menu.

Another quick update: really enjoyed both Inkas and the burritos at Little Chihuahua. That spicy yellow sauce at Inkas was delicious--I wished I could just get a jar of it to take home. Plus, I love their friendly $8 corkage fee. Thought Inkas vastly superior to La Mar, and wallet-friendly to boot.
Hahn's Hibachi, though--we finally tried it last week and that place almost made me cry, literally, from disappointment. I understand that Noe might not be a place to find truly authentic Korean, but what the heck was that brown goop they poured over the barbecued meat? Why was the gochujang so weird and watered down? Who in their right mind charges for banchan? And how can anyone, anyone charge for kimchi, especially such soggy, flavorless kimchi? I guess we should have known as soon we walked in and opened a menu that was printed only in English, but this was by far the worst Korean food we've ever had. It barely tasted Korean--the barbecued beef tasted like a cousin to a sad late-night meal I once had in Lisbon, of all places. It wasn't just shoddy Korean--it was shoddy food, period. Haven't felt this outraged about a meal for a while. Bah!
On the other hand, the Noe Valley Cheese Shop continues to warm and warm this turophile's heart.

Emile Villa;s secret sauce?
re: carbonara
I think once upon a time the original Hahn's Hibachi on Clement had some real Korean food, but as it expanded to a chain it got more and more focused on pandering to non-Koreans. They've been in decline for a while, down to four branches from at least eight at their peak.
re: Robert Lauriston
My wife and I had an early dinner at Hahn's in Noe Valley this past May.
I found it remarkably de-ethnicized, and just chalked that up to the location.
It was sort of Asian-esque, but not really Korean as I know it.
My wife says she has no particular memory of it, and likely it is "not worth discussing on Chowhound."
re: Tripeler
long ago you could get decent kalbi or jap chae at Hahn's. But the Noe branch was always awful.
re: drewskiSF
Sorabol has good tasting meat. It's not comparable to the best Korean in the city, but I think for a food court, that's saying a lot.
Fattoush is AWESOME. It doesn't try to be anything it isn't. It's just really great middle eastern food done very well. Definitely under the radar, but a place I'd love to near.
re: MaggieJ0531
emmy's is not noe, and wouldn't really consider front porch either (although it also depends if you accept the new neighborhood of "la lengua"

As Warren kicks off her run for Scott Brown's Senate seat in Massachusetts, Suzanna Andrews charts the Harvard professor's emergence as a champion of the beleaguered middle class, and her fight against a powerful alliance of bankers, lobbyists, and politicians.

Historical event benefits veterans
By Katie Demeria
While local historical reenactors demonstrate strategies used during a war that took place 70 years ago, their work will be benefiting those who served more recently.
Erek Dorman of Secret Passage Ranch is organizing the ranch's first "WWII in Fort Valley" event, scheduled to take place June 28-29.
All proceeds will go to Secret Passage Ranch's "Victory for Veterans" therapeutic riding program, which helps wounded combat veterans recover by interacting with horses. Many of the program's participants come from the Walter Reed National Military Medical Center.
"It's pretty cool to see," Dorman said. "I've seen guys out there who have lost both of their legs, and they still get on the horses."
According to Secret Passage Ranch's website, the horses are "trained to accommodate the needs of the physically challenged."
"It provides a sense of accomplishment and builds confidence," Dorman said. "And some come out with post traumatic stress disorder and other injuries that aren't visible, so this helps them a lot."
"And, with a setting in Fort Valley, it couldn't be more idyllic or peaceful," he added. "It's a great respite for these guys."
In fact, Dorman said, the program originally started to benefit anyone with special needs through therapeutic riding. But as wars became more prevalent, he said, the ranch began focusing on helping veterans in particular.
The focus works well, as Secret Passage Ranch also supports many historical reenactors like Dorman.
Dorman expects between 40 and 50 reenactors will be present at the event, some from the ranch and others from outside facilities. Many will bring their horses for 20th century cavalry demonstrations.
Visitors will also have the opportunity to learn about some of the vehicles and artillery used during the period, as well. Participants will have their tents set up with equipment displayed for locals to visit.
Dorman was a Civil War reenactor for 16 years. He has focused on World War II for the past five years.
He cannot trace his ancestors back to the Civil War, but in World War II both his father and grandfather served, so he has a connection to that piece of history that encouraged him to pursue World War II reenacting.
He said anyone who is hoping to expand their historical knowledge would benefit from attending.
Many in the valley are familiar with Civil War demonstrations, he pointed out, so a World War II event could provide something different for them to enjoy.
"And these guys really know they're stuff, they know exactly what they're exhibiting," he said. "It's certainly a great educational opportunity. And the ultimate goal, of course, is supporting this nonprofit program that helps the vets."
The event is scheduled to take place from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. June 28 and 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. June 29. The entrance fee is $5 per car. A food vendor will be on site for part of the event, according to the website.

Last weekend we were 5 girls renting a car, driving to check out the big city; Atlanta! :) It was an amazing weekend in Georgia were we went to the World Coca Cola Factory, got a tour inside the CNN Head Quarters and we went to the famous Aquarium. We ate at Hard Rock Cafe and other nice restaurants during our stay. At the Aquarium we also went to a dolphin show, which was really cool!
We also went to a disco to dance and have some fun out-life:) In downtown Charleston there are mostly bars (no disco's), so that have been missed a bit :) It was a fun saturday night!
We slept in a very nice hotel because of a good deal we got. It was downtown and walking distance to everything, which was nice!
A weekend there was a good length, but it was really cool to have been there! We had a blast from the start of our car ride! After all school work it is nice to get away for a couple of days and see something else. On top of it all we got to check out a new State as well:)
Take advantage of all the possibilities you can! And get together with more people, there are so many good deals out there! America has a lot to offer and a lot to see:)
So since The College Of Charleston don't have a football team (because it's located in downtown Charleston, so there are no space for a court) we went to a football game to another college pretty close to here. It's a famous military school called the Citadel. They're mascot is a bulldog :) So as every other american college have, they're mascot was walking around during the game, waiving to the supporters :)
Since this school is a military school they had "show" with the cannons fire (those was loud! haha) and a march. Was pretty cool to look at!
Before the game we did as they call it "tailgating" - like a pre party/ social event before a game. We had a BBQ with hamburgers, hot dogs, chips and sodas :D Played some games and talked:)
It was a great saturday, where the sun came and the heat followed. We could sit and watch the game in t-shirts, that was kinda nice I think, when being in the month of november haha! :)
They won as well! During the "timeouts" there was stuff happening all the time, and we had fun as an audience! Free toy footballs and free t-shirts was thrown up to us ++ The fun there was if we could catch one, some of us did, felt like a kid agin there! lol
Then later that evening there was the first basketball game this season at our college, which we also went to. That was fun as well :)
A real American spirit !
Go Cougars!

I have voted Conservative all my life, but for the first time, I am seriously considering voting UKIP next time. They won't get in, of course, but it might just give the Conservatives a shock. At the moment they are not a conservative party. They are a liberal party.

Medialeader Acquires Rights to Represent Saudi's Al Watan Newspaper
Partnership set to boost paper's advertising sales in the UAE and capitalize on country's leading 31% market share in GCC ad spend.
January 17, 2011 10:19 by Rasha Reslan
Leading regional media representative Medialeader, announced it recently obtained the rights to be the sole media representative of Al Watan newspaper across all major international markets excluding Saudi Arabia.
The agreement, that also includes representation of the newspaper's website www.alwatan.com.sa, was signed by Alexandre Hawari, co-CEO, Medialeader and Hatim Hamed Mouminah, CEO, Aseer Establishment for Publishing and Printing, publishers of Al Watan newspaper.
According to a recent Pan Arab Research Centre (PARC) report, the UAE was the top ad spending GCC market in the first half of 2010, with a reported 31% market share. The Al Watan arrangement will see Medialeader capitalize on this leadership position and further the Saudi paper's profile in the UAE as one of the premium platforms for advertisers to reach into Saudi Arabia, the largest market in the GCC and one of the region's leading economies in terms of growth. It also has the distinction of being the region's biggest market in terms of advertising share and spend.
As one of the leading newspapers in Saudi Arabia with a circulation of 210,000, Al Watan newspaper provides advertisers an ideal opportunity in which to engage Saudi consumers and businesses. "We have chosen Medialeader to help us tap a growing list of advertisers who want to exploit the huge potential afforded by the Saudi market," says Mouminah.
In less than a decade, Al Watan has grown from a small regional newspaper in Saudi Arabia to become one of the kingdom's most read Arabic dailies, and the most quoted by international media, underscoring its growing prominence and prestige.
"Medialeader brings to this partnership its in-house expertise and extensive knowledge of the media industry across the MENA region with offices in Algiers, Beirut, Dubai, Jeddah, Paris, Riyadh, Abu Dhabi and Tunis. We are delighted to be working with Al Watan, and are keen to leverage our 23 years experience to help strengthen its positioning as one of the leading newspapers in Saudi Arabia," says Hawari, whose company represents a roster of leading media, including magazines, daily newspapers, TV networks and out-of-home media.
Hawari explains that Medialeader will be focusing its marketing efforts for Al Watan in the GCC and Levant, as well as key markets around the globe. "We will provide advertisers from all over the world the opportunity to target consumers and businesses in Saudi Arabia, a country cited for its continuing economic growth and future prospects," he continues.
Al Watan's addition to Medialeader's portfolio of media titles reflects the company's continuing thrust to increase its network in the region, and offers media agencies and advertisers a wide variety of advertising opportunities. Medialeader is a member of Mediaquest Corp, established in 1997 and one of the leading publishing houses in the Middle East and North Africa with over 17 consumer and trade titles covering business, marketing, communications, lifestyle, entertainment and women's interest.
With over 150 employees worldwide, Mediaquest Corp. already publishes well-regarded titles including Trends, Arabies, GMR, Saneou Al Hadath, Communicate and the recently launched Dotmena. Dotmena is positioned to become a leading network in the MENA region boasting 200 million impressions that promote business, marketing, communications, sports, women's interest, lifestyle and entertainment websites and portals. More recently, Mediaquest Corp. acquired several long-standing print and on-line media titles from The Media Factory including Autocar Middle East Magazine, F1 Racing Middle East Magazine, Policy, The Brief, and FourFourTwo.
