peking duck with thin pancakes anywhere in NYC?
Can anyone recommend a place serving peking duck with the thin pancakes, anywhere in the five boroughs accessible by public transit? I did search through the old threads, but the only recommendation seems to be Hakkasan and I don't want to spend that much.
I was thinking about Peking Duck House, but it gets such negative reviews on Yelp with people claiming that they serve Mexican tortillas to wrap the duck with. Is that accurate or just an exaggeration? Is the food substantially better at the Midtown location?
I also found some good reviews for Cantonese-style peking duck places that serve it with buns out in Flushing, but I'm looking for the Northern style w/ pancakes.
Deyi Peking Duck House in Flushing got a good review on here 2 years ago, but the reviews on Yelp are awful so I assume it went downhill. And finally, Mr.Tong's in Rego Park has a few good Yelp reviews about their duck from a few years ago, but not much mention on CH.
One of my nieces didn't want the buns, might have been a low carb thing.
We get a side order of pancakes. As long as the restaurant sells mu shu, they will have pancakes. Been a few years but a dollar or so for 4-6 pancakes
I LOVE Peking Duck House, especially the one on 53rd between 2nd and 3rd. I think its the best around--don't listen to those negative reviews on Yelp...they're wrong.
I go to Hakkasan all the time as well, and I prefer the duck at Peking Duck House (ok, the black truffle peking duck at Hakkasan is damned good, but overall, I'd take PDH over the others any day).
re: ipsedixit
Prosperity Dumping on Clinton St? Peking duck sounds good with sesame pancakes. If that's the place I didn't realize they had Peking Duck, have only had soup and dumplings there.
re: foodwhisperer
Not Clinton, but Eldridge (still in Chinatown, however). Next to Long Xin.
They do not have Peking Duck as a stand alone dish. As this is sort of a quasi-Beijing/Northern type place, they have all sorts of baos, pancakes, buns, dumplings etc. And one of their sesame pancake offerings is filled with Peking Duck. Other fillings incl. veggies and eggs.
They have decent wontons, fwiw.
re: ipsedixit
Are they filling it with peking duck or just the usual Cantonese-style roast duck you can buy in most places?
The other day I bought some roast duck from Deluxe Food Market and ate it with folded buns from the grocery, chopped scallion, and cucumber, with hoisin sauce. Like a homemade version of the duck buns you can buy in Flushing. Decent substitute for the real thing.
re: pravit
Does it matter?
You're not going to find authentic Peking Duck (北京烤鴨) in NYC, or really any place in the U.S.
I'd rather have a well-made Canto-style roast duck over a shitty version of "Peking" duck.
re: ipsedixit
It matters to me! I already know where to find Cantonese-style roast duck and I consider it a different dish. I was hoping to find some place that did a decent rendition of peking duck where they carve up a plate of skin, a plate of meat, and give you thin pancakes with scallions and hoisin sauce.
For example, in downtown Toronto Chinatown I used to order the peking duck at Asian Legend for ~$30 if I remember right. It wasn't Quanjude-level peking duck, but it was good and affordable.
Anyhow, it looks like PDH is the place in NYC for what I'm looking for. Thanks.
re: pravit
There's a small restaurant named 天一店 on Queens Blvd and 64th in Rego Park, near M, R subway. Although their food was far from spectacular, they were well known for two their best dishes: 獅子頭 (Shanghainese meatballs) and an authentic Peking duck.
Well, it's been over 3 years since I ate there, but if you are willing to give them a try, call them at 718-897-8202. IIRC, some notice was required for the duck.
re: diprey11
Thanks! It looks like Mr. Tong's is the English name. There are some reviews mentioning the Peking duck favorably, most recent one on Yelp from Jan 2013. Apparently the chef used to be at Tung Shing House which was in turn known for peking duck back in the day, judging from some Chowhound posts from wayyy back.
I think I will have to give Mr. Tong's a try, will let you know if they still make good duck.
re: pravit
I just pulled out an old takeout menu, and yes, the English name is indeed Mr Tong's. Now I recall it was named so because the old Tung (東) Shing House was right across the street and the chef came from there.
I never got to try their taro duck casserole (or any other kind--that was an old Tung Shing specialty) but I did like their sauteed eel. Most interestingly, they served a really high quality rice, which is unheard of in Chinese restaurants here (if you know what I am talking about).
Good luck!
re: pravit
pravit, Cantonese-style roast duck is not the same thing as Peking duck, so you are correct to consider it a different dish.
There is also Cantonese style Peking duck, which is a modification of the traditional Beijing style of Peking duck.
Real traditional Peking duck, like the kind you'd find in Quanjude Restaurant in Beijing (where there is a special brick open hearth oven where the ducks hang and cook over fruit wood which, ideally, imparts a luscious smokiness to the skin and meat), is pretty much impossible to find in the US (if there is a place that does it this traditional way, please let me know).
So what we wind up getting served in the US is not-quite-Peking-duck. There are differences in regional styles of preparation (Beijing is thousands of miles away from Guangzhou, after all) so your typical Canto restaurant which serves so-called "Peking duck" is going to be preparing it with buns (which is a southern thing) instead of pancakes, and in whatever way they decide to cook it. Northern restaurants will serve it closer to the traditional Beijing style, with pancakes and not buns, but it will still not be the real deal.
Mr Taster
I was not impressed with Peking Duck House on 53rd exactly for that reason. The pancakes (yabing) were too huge and thick. Hakkasan's pancakes are way better.
Now that I have moved to Hong Kong, I enjoy more refined, fine Chinese cuisine including Peking Duck everyday and I am so happy. LOL Great French desserts here too!
I had a bad meal last night at PDH on 53rd. Very fatty duck and carved in big chunks. I don't think there is a quality Peking duck house in manhattan. Chef Pho on Eighth and 51st isn't bad. You can get a half duck there for about $25.
DECOY is a "shrine to Peking Duck." It recently opened in the West Village and is situated directly downstairs from RED FARM, another good restaurant on Hudson Street, bet. West 10th St. & Charles St.
Served family style, you order one duck for up to four people. The duck will be cooked to order, so you have to reserve.
This is their specialty. Check it out. I know you will enjoy it.
I can rave on and on, because I love Peking Duck; but this time, just go for it!.
re: Mr Taster
It is a traditional duck-firing oven--specially built for DECOY, imported from China. Apparently, there are about 3 or 4 such ovens in the entire country.
I bopped by to inquire and spoke to a person at the restaurant, who said:
"I have many guests who frequent Beijing. They say our Peking Duck rivals anything found in Beijing."
There is going to be a PBS special on the oven at DECOY. They already taped it, but I don't know when it will air.
How exciting!
re: Mr Taster
From what I understand the oven at Decoy is very similar to a tandoor, so not sure it's "traditional" in the sense of a "hung oven".
And really, the more critical components of Peking Duck that are missing in the U.S are the hang drying (before roasting) and the smokeless hardwood that's used for fuel in the oven.
re: ipsedixit
Ipse, I'm curious about your mention of smokeless hardwood. The first true Peking Duck that I ever had was at the Qianmen Quanjude, and the thing I remember most about that experience was the significant depth of smokiness in the bird. We also tried ducks from Liqin and Made in China (sadly, we missed Da Dong), and both of those lacked the smoky depth of Quanjude. I've also had the highly regarded duck at 宋廚 in Taipei, though I felt the duck was just fine (and they wouldn't let us look in the kitchen to confirm that they're cooking with the "hung oven".)
In any case, my takeaway from all this is that my first impression defined my experience, which said Peking Duck = smoky. All of my subsequent experiences have indicated otherwise. I still dream about the duck at Qianmen, though-- not the others.
Mr Taster
re: Mr Taster
It's not supposed to be smoky.
re: Mr Taster
Mr. Taster, I knew you were going to say that, because you have already said:
"...there are no restaurants in the USA (to my knowledge) that make Peking Duck in the proper way." What if DECOY actually prepares Peking Duck "in the proper way"--I wonder whether that would please you.
I was told that the manufacturer provided this info when DECOY got their oven. I'm looking forward to learning more about the oven, when it airs on PBS. Otherwise, I'll just enjoy the duck, thank you.
re: ZaZa
ZaZa, I've had my hopes raised and dashed many times with promises of actual traditional Peking Duck in the US, so forgive my skepticism. I need something more than PR journalism and unconfirmed testimony from biased sources (the oven manufacturer). Believe me, if and when it actually happens, I'll be singing about it from the rooftops.
Mr Taster
re: Mr Taster
Mr. Taster, as much as I'd like a Da Dong in the US, we don't have one. Decoy provides a reasonable facsimile, as does Hakkasan. The two best roast ducks with pancakes, scallions and cucumbers in NYC.
While I appreciate attention to detail and artisanal aspects, whether or not the duck at Decoy is roasted in an oven with peach tree wood, for all intents and purposes it's "Peking duck". :) I don't walk into an Italian restaurant question the size of their lasagna sheets or if it was hand rolled, machine rolled or bronze extruded or the provenance of their semolina and if the water they used was from Campania, ricotta, no ricotta, what if it doesn't have bechamel, what if it does? It's still lasagna. I think it's wonderful you're sharing your knowledge with people who are less familiar about how Peking duck is traditionally prepared, but after learning such, the OP is still looking for Peking duck in NYC and not hopping on a plane to China or Italy or Egypt to get their fix of "real" dishes. At least that's my understanding in this instance and context.
As for the OP, Decoy and Hakkasan are both expensive. There's no cheap, good version of Peking duck in NYC. Heck the roast chicken at Nomad is $82. It's an expensive town. PDH serves fatty, poorly sliced duck that has had off-flavors and in one visit at the midtown location, I was served what seemed to be flour tortillas from a supermarket in lieu of Chinese pancakes (if you can't tell, I've had bad experiences at the PDHs, both locations). At $53, it's not inexpensive either.
re: Pookipichu
Hi Pookipichu,
You misunderstand me... my motivations are purely selfish. I did not chime in to help the OP-- I was seeking clarification for myself.
If I hear a claim of real Peking Duck, the reason I'm "sharing my knowledge" (as you put it) is simply to pinpoint whether it really exists, so that I can seek it out without flying to Beijing. This is not a flight of fancy, as a branch of Quanjude once existed in Los Angeles, though sadly it closed a long time ago. I've been looking ever since.
Mr Taster
re: Mr Taster
Ahhhh, got it. I can relate to wanting a very specific flavor. Even though Quanjude is not my favorite place for Peking duck, I do understand the appeal. I've only eaten at Decoy once, but in my recollection, the duck at Decoy does not have smokiness. I should go back to confirm :) especially since their fried fish skin is totally addictive.

James McCartney Releasing "Available Light": 5 Questions for David Kahne, Co-Producer & Mixer
HELL'S KITCHEN, MANHATTAN: With conviction like his, James McCartney doesnÔÇÖt have to convince anybody of anything. Just a few seconds into ÔÇťAngelÔÇŁ, the opening cut of his new EP, Available Light, itÔÇÖs clear to all with ears that his hooks are heroic. And theyÔÇÖre his.
Of course, with his bloodline, James has to convince a whole ton of people that he really can play guitar and sing, much less write a song. On the one side of his heritage is Sir Paul McCartney, the Beatle who transformed Western music along with his bandmates John Lennon, George Harrison and Ringo Starr. James' DNA springs equally from Lady Linda McCartney, a primary sonic force as PaulÔÇÖs muse and partner in Wings.
That kind of family tree will trigger high expectations ÔÇô probably why James McCartney has kept quiet about himself for most of his 33 years. But with the kind of natural talent he possesses on guitar and vocals, it was only a matter of time before a record would arrive.
Now, the moment is right. Available Light, co-produced by Paul McCartney and David Kahne, debuts Tuesday, September 21 on NYCÔÇÖs Engine Company Records, and the sounds it holds just might shock and awe. After the instant rush of ÔÇťAngelÔÇŁ is the driving tension of ÔÇťGlistenÔÇŁ, the bittersweet uplift of ÔÇťMy FriendÔÇŁ, and the Cobain-dark drama of ÔÇťDenialÔÇŁ. The capper is his bandÔÇÖs masterful cover of Neil YoungÔÇÖs ÔÇťOld ManÔÇŁ, with the power to raise neck hairs after repeated listenings.
The New York City-based Kahne, a longtime collaborator of Paul and a wide spread of artists including Tony Bennett, Fishbone, Sublime, The Strokes, Sugar Ray, The Bangles, Sean Lennon, Stevie Nicks, Regina Spektor, Linkin Park and Mike Doughty was on hand for it all. He oversaw the recording sessions at PaulÔÇÖs Hog Hill Mill Studios in Sussex, Abbey Road Studios in London, and SeeSquared Studios and Avatar Studios back here in NYC, and mixed the record.
Typically occupied with a diverse palette of projects ÔÇô scoring two films, working with the NYC rock band the Dirty Pearls, developing eight other artists, and finishing an orchestral ballet of Peter Pan ÔÇô Kahne granted SonicScoop a rare interview about co-producing this rarest of records.
What made you the right teammate for James McCartney and Co-Producer Paul McCartney on Available Light?
IÔÇÖve worked with Paul for 10 years, and IÔÇÖve known James for about eight years, although James and I had never worked on any music. So when Paul decided that he wanted James to get a record made, he called me up and asked if I was interested in producing James' music with himÔÇŽ It was really that simple. And I immediately said yes.
Knowing James from before helped, and IÔÇÖve worked with Paul a lot so he must have felt I might be a good person to collaborate with. Paul hoped we could work together well in a triangle. So we all agreed and started working. I think he was right.
There were two recording stages for ÔÇťAvailable LightÔÇŁ. The first phase saw James playing most of the instruments,┬á and Sean Pelton on drums. Towards the end of those sessions James also formed a band with members of the Dead 60s, toured with them and re-recorded several of those tracks plus six new ones. Why was this two-phase process undertaken?
We recorded quite a bit of the first recordings in PaulÔÇÖs studio (Hog Hill Mill Studios) in the south of England, in Sussex. James, Paul, and me ÔÇô Paul not playing by the way, except to come up with parts, a few of which stayed as Paul's performances. We had a great drummer from New York, Shawn Pelton, come in, but James played bass, guitar and keyboards. We got an albumÔÇÖs worth of songs, actually more than that, done.┬á But we were still looking for more to choose from.
Then we talked about having a band, to see what that was like, and so that James could start playing gigs. James had played some in bands, but not that much. I had produced a band called the Dead 60s from Liverpool. I called up the drummer Bryan Johnson and the bass player Charlie Turner, connected them with James, and they started rehearsing with him.  Then we brought in their friend Steve Bayley, who played guitar and keyboards.
We decided ÔÇťThis sounds really good, too.ÔÇŁ We recorded a bunch of new songs, and re-recorded some of the previously recorded songs to compare them to what we already had.┬á┬á On Available Light the new band recorded ÔÇťOld ManÔÇŁ.┬á All of the other songs, ÔÇťAngel,ÔÇŁ ÔÇťGlistenÔÇŁ, ÔÇťMy FriendÔÇŁ and ÔÇťDenial" were from the older sessions, but a couple of those songs have overdubs from the new band. ItÔÇÖs definitely worth noting that Gil Goldstein plays accordion on ÔÇťOld ManÔÇŁ.┬á And Steven Isserlis plays cello on "Glisten".
James brought in 50 cover songs to choose from, and we chose two: ÔÇťOld ManÔÇŁ was one of the songs we decided on. We were going through the list, and when we got to ÔÇťOld ManÔÇŁ I heard him sing the first line and I got a chill. It was a great moment.
ItÔÇÖs an absolutely dynamite cover of one of Neil YoungÔÇÖs signature creations. In the studio, how would you describe JamesÔÇÖ approach to recording ÔÇô what sound/feel was he going for with Available Light, and how did you facilitate that?
I wouldnÔÇÖt say James goes for a particular sound and feel. ItÔÇÖs not like a directed, ÔÇťThis is what I want.ÔÇŁ He kind of plays the way he plays. HeÔÇÖs a gifted musician who can play bass and guitar right-handed and left-handed — he can play his DadÔÇÖs bass with either hand. And he has a massive vocal range, at least three-and-a-half octaves. His guitar playing is world-class, as his hands are so sure and effortless.┬á And his piano playing is graceful and strong.┬á He held a note the other day for 52 seconds.
He writes the song, he feels something when he writes the song, and when he plays it, itÔÇÖs done the way he felt it. So in production, the point was to make sure that was as wholly fleshed out as possible, without squashing or stepping on the original sense and feel of what he'd played.┬á It's very easy in the studio to run roughshod over original intentions.
The song ÔÇťDenialÔÇŁ is very, very dark, and ÔÇťAngelÔÇŁ is another great example, just based on what heÔÇÖs feeling when he writes it. When he performs, the songs come off the way that he felt.┬á He has a very direct connection to what he feels and what he sounds like, and actually doesn't talk much about what the songs mean. HeÔÇÖs a very feeling person.
I didnÔÇÖt know any of the songs when we started, and Paul hadnÔÇÖt heard a lot of them. James would play them, Paul and I would sit and listen, and there were many times when we looked at each other and said, ÔÇťWOW.ÔÇŁ
On one song we were listening to for the EP, James was singing quietly and then got so loud so quickly that he hurt my ears, just singing and playing acoustically. Paul and I jumped and James said, ÔÇťWas that too loud?ÔÇŁ┬á He can go from 0-to-60 in a second. As I understand, heÔÇÖs always been like that, since he was little. He could play ÔÇťThe Wind Cries MaryÔÇŁ when he was 12. He would listen to songs and quickly be able to play them, no matter how difficult.
Moving on to the mixing. How would you describe your philosophy overall as a mixer, and then how did that guide your approach to mixing this record?
Well, IÔÇÖm usually mixing while I produce, so the way I work is that by the time I get to mixing, IÔÇÖm already close to my final goal, since I mixed as I went along. Which is interesting, now that I think about it, because itÔÇÖs kind of Beatley ÔÇô they had sub-mixes which they had made by bouncing back and forth on four tracks. Their mix parts were committed to early on.
I use a lot of analog outboard gear, but IÔÇÖve set my computers up through a MADI system so that I have access to that gear outside the computers while IÔÇÖm working on the project. So I can instantly get to or recall that gear if I recall the session. If I get a vocal sound I like, using my Federal Limiter or my Fairchild, I can keep it and continue with it through the overdubs.
We started the second phase at Abbey Road, and then finished recording at PaulÔÇÖs studio in Sussex, mixed the whole record, and then I came back to NYC, to my studio, and I remixed about 2/3rds of it in recall.┬á IÔÇÖm very much vocal-first: I put the vocal up first and go around that. That was a really good thing to do in JamesÔÇÖ case ÔÇô it keeps anything from getting mixed in a way that pulls away from the voice.┬á And of course, getting the arrangement right in the first place helps.
We would redo the guitars with different voicings to draw the voice out, for example. I call that mixing, too. ItÔÇÖs just fixing it another way. If thereÔÇÖs a vocal in there, I figure that takes precedence and has to be served.
There was some serious rock royalty all over Available Light ÔÇô what did you learn personally from this project, both about songwriting and recording?
It was fascinating working with Paul and James, not only as producer and artist, but as father and son. Musically, IÔÇÖm always learning about the artist and his/her point of view. If theyÔÇÖre good, thereÔÇÖs something unique and distinctive there. And these recordings were no exception. I learned so much from working with James and Paul.
JamesÔÇÖ ability as a guitar player was astounding to me. He did things I had never experienced before. He would play a really complicated guitar part, and then IÔÇÖd ask him to double it on acoustic. He would do that, and it would be as if I had made a copy of the first one. He knows where every note is, and that makes for a certain kind of power in a recording ÔÇô the level of precision that comes out.
It was also different working with Paul as Co-Producer, because he wasnÔÇÖt playing. It was Paul and me talking about things, then the two of us talking to James. Or Paul or myself singley working with James at times.┬á I got to work with Paul in a different way on this album. I think it worked out really well. And James shines through.

Honeymoon and beyond
Tipsarevic tells XPRESS that he loves being in Dubai and not just for the tennis event
- Image Credit: Gulf News archives
- Tipsarevic beat Andy Murray in the 2010 edition
Dubai: He spent his honeymoon in Dubai two years back and considers the Dubai Duty Free Tennis Championships as one of his favourite tournaments on the ATP World Tour. Meet the 'other' Serbian, Janko Tipsarevic, the man who recently led his country to victory against formidable Russia in Novak Djokovic's absence and was one of the very few players to beat his seemingly unbeatable countryman at the ATP World Tour Finals last year. Speaking exclusively to XPRESS ahead of the February 27-March 3 men's week, the world No 9 said he hopes to reach close to the top 5 by the end of this year.
Top-five dreams
"I feel like I had a very successful season [in 2011] because I was more consistent with the way that I was performing on the court. I played lots of matches last season and I think I knew that I need to improve my tennis to get to the level that I wanted to reach. This season is going to be even tougher as I will need to maintain that level so that I can become a consistent top 10. I need to improve and if I do that then maybe I can come closer to the top 5," he said.
The 27-year-old has been to Dubai before, his famous win against Andy Murray in 2010 marking him out as a player to fear here. "It [Dubai] is one of my favourite tournaments on the ATP World Tour. I have been here many times for the tournament and also many times outside of tennis, for example, my honeymoon. The organisation at the tournament is world class and I enjoy the experience of playing at the club and in front of all the fans,' he said.
Tipsarevic had a great finish to 2011, winning his first ATP World Tour tournaments in Kuala Lumpur and Moscow and of course beating Djokovic in London. So, does that rank as one of the best wins of his career?
"I am not sure I would say it was the best win of my career, but for sure beating the world number one at the World Tour Finals was a very a nice way to finish the season," he said.
He also partnered Leander Paes to win the Chennai Open this year and he believes the Indian is one of the greatest doubles player of all time.
"To be honest, for me it is impossible to rate Leander anywhere. He is one of the best of all time because he has managed to stay so long at the top with many different partners. He is incredibly talented," he said.
Understandably, despite all his singles success, the Serb still rates the 2010 Davis Cup triumph as the best of his career, coming from 1-2 down to win the fifth and final rubber against Radek Stepanek of the Czech Republic.
"At this stage of my career I would have to say that it is the number one career moment. It was a very special feeling representing your country and winning the Davis Cup for them for the first time," he said.

However, he doesn't remain as optimistic when looking ahead to next season, admitting he may ask for a trade. According to the Los Angeles Times: "If this coach stays and Dwight Howard remains with the Lakers," I asked, "what about you?" "It would be hard for me to deal with another season knowing the facts you just mentioned," said Gasol, 32 and with one year remaining on his contract. "So do you ask for a fresh start elsewhere?" "It's a possibility," he said, "yes."

Sponsored Deals
They're like ads, but good.
OK, yes, companies pay a little something to be Sponsored Deals. But we don't allow just any old crap in this section. Sponsored Deals are proposed to us by other retailers, manufacturers, and even other daily deal sites. If we find the deal compelling enough that our members will appreciate us bringing it to their attention, we'll feature it here. Believe it or not, we have a reputation to uphold. If your store would like to be considered for this space, please contact us for details. But if your deal is lame, or sketchy, no amount of money will let you buy your way in.
Community Deals
It's whatever you want it to be.
Pretty much, anyway. This is where you find the deals that wooters like you have ferreted out and brought to light. We're thinking it'll turn into a massive database of discounted products from around the Web, constantly expanding to absorb the newest deals from the very moment their prices are slashed, with each deal immediately rated by hordes of savvy voters to spotlight the very greatest deals in the world today. Hey, we can dream, right?
We use a fancy algorithm to determine which deals are catching the most buzz – they're under the Popular tab, which is the default view of this section. You can look for the most popular deals today, this week, or this month. The Fresh tab features the most recently submitted deals, so that's where to look for deals that everybody else doesn't know about yet. And the Search bar does what a Search bar does, only, uh, much wootier! Yeah! Right on!
Ask The Community
They probably won't bite.
Organic bullets? Vegetarian haggis? Cheap tickets to Antarctica? The best high-performance sweatsocks for under $100? If you're looking for a deal that doesn't appear to show up in our Community Deals section, throw the question to your fellow cheapskates. Or answer a question for one of your fellow cheapskates. Or vote for your favorite questions, or your favorite answers, or… maybe we should call this section "Ask, Answer, Comment On, And Vote In The Community", but that won't fit on the page.

so the husband in a fit of anger - cause Life just will not go his way no matter what, had our internet turned off. I think maybe he wanted me to beg (i am addicted to sparkpeople and pinterest) to have it turned back on, but i didn't. I walked more with LeslieSansone in my basement, I got out of the house more and did whatever I wanted. A few weeks ago he barked incessantly about how I spent entire Sat & Sun from the home and therefore we (me and him) had NO Alone time together. LMBO. We never do. What he really meant was I wan't there to fix his breakfast, make his coffee, fix his lunch, and have cold beers in freezer and running out there to hand him one every 10 minutes. So, this past Sunday, I went out for about 5 hours and he asked me why I was going to go to the Bookstore - and I told him it was Mothers Day and I am a mother. He shook his head in disbelief and I left. It was a good day to be away from him.
I am just hoping to get some really positive news tomorrow from counseling about how to find a job without any references (since I haven't worked in the real world in over 15years) and I've moved 3 times in that time span, so Yes, I have NO references and barely qualifications. Also, they are supposed to let me know what type of housing is available to a woman in her 40's with no job skills, no money, and an impending divorce on her heels. Talk about Big Steps.
My weight fluctuates between 172 & 177 depending on the day. I have had a crazy last two weeks with my meds. Diabetes was out of control only for me to find out I had a nasty UTI and therefore those two diseases were fighting one another. The antibiotics given to me caused some freaky symptoms to include an out of nowhere panic attack. And now I also have to take a prescription med to reduce the heartburn and it makes me drowsy. Real drowsy. Not sure I like taking that.
Since this weird medicine ritual issue, nothing tastes good to me. Not even SF popsicles. I have stopped drinking coffee with cream and just altogether cheese. I knew I was lactose intolerant but I didnt realize just how much the other dairy products were keeping me feeling icky. But, the only thing that tastes good and that I can keep down is french fries and dip them in mustard, ketchup tastes awful right now.
My depression meds don't seem to be keeping me less depressed, don't know if i have become immune to them or the extra stress is making them work overTime. I still don't feel like doing anything. I don't want to walk, go swim, leave the house, or leave the bed. I could just sleep but mainly I think cause I am so darned tired from giving early pampering to the stupid mean husband, and just not getting in enough exercise to make me feel better. It's like one bad dream after another.
Thanks to every one who continues to be supportive of me on my blog posts and my sparkpage and my boards i post to. I try really hard to get over there and say to all of you, but sometimes I just get sidetracked and the moment is lost. I am though greatly appreciative of all the inspiration/motivation and love that you send my way. One of these days I am gonna be able to return the favor doubleFoLd.
to make a long story short.
i am choosing to be happy. my marriage will be coming to an end, but I just can't take anymore of the bashes to my self - esteem, confidence, worth. Yes, this is the better idea.
i sometimes wonder if the husband has multiple personality disorder?! last monday he yelled hateful things to me, slammed door in my face, told me to get F'ing counseling but he wouldn't go nor would he pay for it, and he said he wished he hadn't heard my side of the story and he didn't want to hear any other thing that came out of my mouth. he has gradually gotten back to his tolerable self. the worst part is that he never apologized for any of his antics or hateful words. Usually he would demand that i do it (apologize) but this time he didn't. I think it is cause i used the word Counseling!
But i guess cause tomorrow is monday he decided to pop off again. it was something about his phone and gps and things that i dont have the foggiest clue about and i guess i glazed over, and he yells out, "i don't know why i even talk to you, You never listen to me". and he stormed off. It's only 315pm, so it's gonna be a long rainy sunday.
my next counseling session is next monday, not tomorrow. but, i might have to up my date. and i believe i will enroll in group counseling. i need to talk with other people who just get it!
aarrgghh, just venting.
i am married and the other part of my marriage ( i can't say half, cause he doesn't exert that much effort into the relationship). finally blew his top last night and basically told me i need to just get the he!! out of his house. i am taking it quite well. A girlfriend reminded me it is also my house and i could say to him that he should get out. The thought did cross my mind. I finally start losing weight and feeling good and motivated and then he drops this on me.
What a distressing contrast there is between the radiant intelligence of the child and the feeble mentality of the average adult. ~Sigmund Freud
my entire life, I have always been the freeSpirit. and my overEducated, overPsychobabbled Sister continually tells me that I live in a fairyTaLe and I need to grow up. She has a masters in psychology and Used2Be a counselor.
it was just a weird trip for me to come across THIS quote. I just want to shout out to my sister (who wouldn't listen to me if I told her a genuine factoid) -
Really, Sigmund Freud, the godFather of psychology... You (my sister) learned this and still refer to me as a moron.
I feel Better!
thanks for the space on my canvas to say How I feeL!

Main opposition party Fidesz has suspended the three men believed
responsible for hacking into the election campaign website of the
ruling Hungarian Socialist Party (MSZP). The unnamed men were blamed
for using the Fidesz server to hack into the website and download
around 3,000 files, something that Fidesz initially denied before
shifting the blame onto the "overzealous" employees. Police have asked
Fidesz for the three workers' names.
Counter-claims appear effective
Fidesz leader Viktor Orb=E1n has attempted to play down the incident,
despite the fact that police are now investigating, and other party
members have claimed that the MSZP has committed similar crimes in the
past. Daily N=E9pszabads=E1g claimed that Prime Minister Ferenc
Gyurcs=E1ny's campaign schedule has now been thrown into doubt, as have
many of the documents related to his speeches and itinerary. The paper
said that Gyurcs=E1ny would now have to change his route around the
country and change his speeches.
However, it would seem that, despite the MSZP's efforts to draw
attention to what it believes is a serious incident, polls conducted
after the goings-on found that people do not particularly care.
Pollsters found that, despite the vast majority of people saying
information should not be collected by illegal means, only 10%
believed that either party had used underhand methods in the campaign
so far.

Written on: 08/05/2010 by welshgirl44 (35 reviews written)
The Iphone is the type of phone that is marveled by many class' and ages. It's capability is astounding with an easy text service, easy email access, and thousands of useful and pointless apps to be downloaded of the convenient square-"The App Store". Yet, among the many strengths, including internet and it's superior connectivity, there are weakness' such as the App's can crash causing the screen to return to the first page of Apps. Another thing is that you can't get rid of stuff such as the "stock app". Being a teenager I have no use for it and, although I have glanced at it a few times , I couldn't understand it if I tried.
Overall however it's a sublime phone and the touch screen works well, because it's Apple. The Apps usually get fixed quick and I haven't yet found fault with it.
Written on: 10/07/2010
I found this review helpful because...there are lots of info and guide for new beginner or someone looking for new phone to get to know more about Apple. As far as we know, Apple yet is the best manufacter of the world phone.

Confused and faking it most of the time.

R&B Soul Sensation Mary J. Blige Performs
"Macy's Stars of Dance" Performance is a Tribute to "The Twist," Featuring
Grammy® Award Winner Estelle, on the "Dancing with the Stars the Results Show"
"Episode 1303" -- In this week's "Dancing with the Stars," themed "The Most Memorable Year of My Life," each couple will perform a Ballroom or Latin style of dance to their song of choice, live, MONDAY, OCTOBER 3 (8:00-10:01 p.m., ET), on the ABC Television Network.
On Tuesday, Multi-platinum R&B recording artist Mary J. Blige will take the stage for an unforgettable performance singing two songs, "Real Love" and "25/8." Tuesday night's "Macy's Stars of Dance" performance pays tribute the beloved and iconic dance of an entire generation, "The Twist," in celebration of its 50th year mark, featuring Grammy(r) Award winner, Estelle. Also, pro dancers Val Chmerkovskiy and Peta Murgatroyd reunite with the Troupe for a special performance themed to "Gone with the Wind," as a preview to next week's Movie Scores theme, on "Dancing with the Stars the Results Show," TUESDAY, OCTOBER 4 (9:00-10:01 p.m., ET), on the ABC Television Network.
Since her 1992 debut, "What's The 411?," Mary J. Blige has sold over 60 million albums worldwide. Among her many accolades, Blige can claim six multi-platinum albums, nine Grammy Awards, with a staggering 28 nominations, as well as garnering four American Music Awards. Blige is the co-founder of the Foundation for the Advancement of Women Now (FFAWN), whose mission is to empower women from all walks of life to reach their full individual potential. On July 31, 2010, Blige sold over 60 thousand bottles of her "My Life" perfume on the Home Shopping Network. Her perfume was the first to sell over 60,000 bottles in one day on HSN, and $1 from each purchase was donated to FFAWN. This past summer she released her second perfume called "My Life Blossom." This November she is releasing her highly anticipated new album entitled "My Life II....The Journey Continues (Act 1)." She also has an original song featured in the film "The Help." On the acting front, Blige will star as a lead in "Rock of Ages," the Tony-nominated hit Broadway musical due next June, and will begin filming her role as Nina Simone in the autobiographical film this fall.
She may be a born-and-raised West London girl, but Estelle Swaray is right at home in the energy of New York, her newly adopted city. The Homeschool/Atlantic recording artist's highly anticipated new album, "All of Me," is heralded by three critically acclaimed singles, "Fall in Love (Feat. Nas)," "Break My Heart (Feat. Rick Ross)" and the recently released "Thank You." "All of Me" followed the Grammy Award-winning singer's 2008 U.S. debut, "Shine," which marked the premiere release from Grammy Award-winner John Legend's Homeschool Records label, in partnership with Atlantic Records, and was without question one of 2008's most compelling releases. Executive-produced by Legend and Atlantic Records Chairman/CEO Craig Kallman, the album proved Estelle's global breakthrough, fuelled in part by the phenomenal hit single, "American Boy (featuring Kanye West)." In addition to hitting #1 in the UK, "American Boy" topped the European Airplay Chart, along with airplay charts in the UK, France, Italy, Belgium, Denmark and Ireland. In the U.S., "American Boy" has been certified two-time platinum by the RIAA for digital sales exceeding 2 million. And in 2009, the track earned Estelle her first-ever Grammy Award, among many other prestigious honors.
By evening's end, one couple will be eliminated, as determined by a combination of the judges' scores and viewers' votes on dances performed on Monday's performance show. Who among the ten couples will be the third team to leave the ballroom?
* DAVID ARQUETTE, actor and producer, and partner KYM JOHNSON.
* CHAZ BONO, author and activist, and partner LACEY SCHWIMMER.
* KRISTIN CAVALLARI, TV star, and partner MARK BALLAS.
* NANCY GRACE, TV host and journalist, and partner TRISTAN MACMANUS.
* ROBERT KARDASHIAN, reality star, and partner CHERYL BURKE.
* CARSON KRESSLEY, television star and style guru, and partner ANNA TREBUNSKAYA.
* RICKI LAKE, talk show host and actress, and partner DEREK HOUGH.
* J.R. MARTINEZ, veteran and actor, and partner KARINA SMIRNOFF.
* CHYNNA PHILLIPS, singer, and partner TONY DOVOLANI.
* HOPE SOLO, World Cup star, and partner MAKSIM CHMERKOVSKIY.
Hosted by Tom Bergeron ("America's Funniest Home Videos") and Brooke Burke-Charvet ("Dancing with the Stars" Season Seven Champion), the celebrities perform choreographed dance routines which will be judged by renowned Ballroom judge Len Goodman and dancer/choreographers Bruno Tonioli and Carrie Ann Inaba.

A note from the editor: St Helena Online may soon be able to get closer to life on St Helena. I walked and jogged the full 50 miles of the UK's hilly Long Mynd Hike in 16 hours and five minutes, finishing just after five o'clock on Sunday morning (7 October 2012). A small amount of sponsorship from the walk should pay to send a simple recording device out to the island, so that interviews can be conducted for the site. Watch for more on this initiative in the near future. Simon. Read more here

People's Pharmacy: The dangers of too much natural licorice
People's Pharmacy answers queries about the danger of high blood pressure from glycyrrhizin in natural licorice; and gastrointestinal bleeding from naproxen.
Syndicated columnists
Q: This has been the scariest week of my life. I suddenly developed very high blood pressure (195/118) and had to go to the emergency department.
I'm a student and had bought a ton of black licorice, the really good, imported kind. I had been eating it while I studied and didn't realize my blood pressure had begun to rise. When it felt like my heart was going to explode, I decided to check my blood pressure and found it was sky-high!
I was put on hypertension medications: first, a beta blocker that did nothing; then an ACE inhibitor (ditto) and a water pill. The diuretic brought my pressure down after several days. Eventually it got my pressure down to 87/63, which is too low. Now my pressure is back to normal without medicine.
I could not understand what was happening. I eat a low-fat diet, and I'm not overweight. I don't smoke or drink. It wasn't until afterward that my brother told me he thought it was glycyrrhizin toxicity from licorice. I could not believe it could be so harmful.
Today, my blood pressure is fine without medication: 107/70. I'm never eating licorice again.
A: Too much licorice can raise blood pressure and lower potassium levels (Clinical Chemistry, December 2009). Your brother is right that glycyrrhizin in natural licorice is the culprit.
Candy flavored with anise rather than real licorice is safe. The imported variety that you were consuming is more likely to contain glycyrrhizin.
Q: My husband was just released from the hospital as a result of taking naproxen for tendinitis. He used it exactly as prescribed, and it still caused more trouble than it was worth.
He had severe gastrointestinal bleeding, so bad that he needed a blood transfusion with three units of blood. He was in ICU for four days. The doctor and nurses said that people who take high doses of this pain reliever often end up with gastrointestinal bleeding. What other options are there for pain and inflammation?
A: Naproxen and other NSAIDs, such as Celebrex, ibuprofen, diclofenac, meloxicam and nabumetone, are frequently prescribed for inflammatory conditions like tendinitis, bursitis and arthritis. Long-term use of such drugs poses a risk of life-threatening bleeding like your husband experienced. They also can raise blood pressure and increase the risk of heart attacks, heart failure and strokes (Rheumatology International online, Dec. 22, 2011).
Acetaminophen (Tylenol) is less likely to cause digestive upset or bleeding, but it may raise blood pressure (Circulation, Nov. 2, 2010) and increase the risk of asthma (Pediatrics, Dec. 2011). High doses can be hard on the liver.
Such complications may explain why home remedies are so popular. Fish oil, tart cherries, gin-soaked raisins, grape juice and apple-cider vinegar, vitamin D and pineapple all have their enthusiasts. Our Guide to Alternatives for Arthritis provides details on how to use such approaches.
Topical NSAID gels and lotions may be one way to ease joint pain or tendinitis without as much risk of side effects.

Comment: Re:BLUE ray (Score 2) 188
If you look at the absorption and efficiency plots in the linked nature abstract, the improvement is pretty broad spectrum as it is. Based on the Fourier analysis plots, it does seem like a slightly wider pit spacing would better concentrate the energy in their desired sweet spot, but CDs and DVDs would be too wide. HD-DVD actually looks like it might have the most ideal pit spacings.
