No current Talk conversations about this book.
John is a returned slave who begins to teach Sarny the letters of the alphabet, which is illegal however, it is a risk she is willing to take. After John escapes for a second time he returns to take Sarny away from the plantation. I liked this book because it gave you a look into pre-Civil war life told from a slaves' perspective. I think it is important that students learn about historical periods such as the time of slavery from different perspectives as books can provide a bias view. I would deem this book appropriate for children who are in 4th grade and up.
This was one of my favorite chapter books we read all semester. My favorite part of the book is the imagery the author created throughout the chapter book. I had vivid images throughout my reading. Some of the most gruesome events in the book had the best imagery associated with them. I could sense NightJohn's pain as he was getting his toe cut off for trying to teacher another slave how to read. The author evoked all the reader's senses in his writing. The next aspect of the book I liked was the author's writing style. The book was written in a language that was authentic to the time period and authentic as to how people spoke during this time. They introduced themselves by saying "I be John," "I be Sarny." At first a reader may have difficultly getting accustomed to the way the characters speak but it adds authenticity and gives the reader a sense of how they spoke during this time period. Finally, I loved the characters in the book. The characters gave the reader someone to relate to and gave the reader an opportunity to "look through a window." The reader can see another perspective on the importance of education that is something that many readers take for granted. In addition, the reader is forced to think about a life that is different from their own and they are forced to have a greater appreciation for their opportunity's and freedoms. The big idea/message of this story is the importance of education, selflessness, and freedom.
In the time of slavery things were awful. I don't think we realize just how awful they actually were. Then you come across a book Like Nightjohn that takes you into that world and opens your eyes to the real horrors of how people were treated during slavery. This was a hard book to read but it was also are great book that teaches a lot. I really liked this book for a couple of reasons. One reason I really liked it was because of the language it was written in. It really made you feel like you were in that time period. Another reason I liked it was for the story it told and how it made the reader think about a really tough concept and what it must have been like to be a slave.
While the language that this book is written in is a little tough to get use to at first, as you get use to it, it really added to the reader's experience. The book is written just like slaves would talk in that time period. This kind of language helped to send you back in time and immerse you in to the story. For example "I didn't know what letters was, not what they meant, but I thought it might be something I wanted to know. To learn." Having this kind of language help show the reader that slaves did not get to go to school or learn how to read and write. It brings an authenticity to the story.
The actual story this book tells is powerful and moving. The story follows young Sarny, who deals with being a slave. Then one day a new slave is brought onto the plantation. She learned his name is Nightjohn. Soon after he arrived he started teaching her letters and how to makes the sounds to read them. But the most interesting thing that she learned was that Nightjohn learned to read because he was once a free salve. A man who was once free from slavery put himself back into the horrors of it to help teach reading and writing to slaves showed amazing character. As the story continued, Sarny started to learn to write and was caught and punished for her actions because, "To know things, for us to know things, is bad for them. We get to wanting and when we get to wanting it's bad for them. They thinks we want what they got. That's why they don't want us reading." It was in the events that follow you really learned just how tortuous it was to be a slave. This is why this story pushes you to think about tough issues. It really made you think about and even showed you what it would have been like to be a slave. It made you ask questions like: Why did this happen? What would I do in that situation? How could people do this to other human beings? It makes you think about racism and all the problem and issues with it. This book packs a punch that I will not soon forget.
Nightjohn sends a powerful message it teaches us the value of learning and the doors it can open to know how to read and write. But more importantly it gives us a glimpse in to a dark time in American history a time that will not be forgotten.
"Nightjohn" is the story of a young girl Sarny who is a slave on the Waller Plantation. Sarny's experience as a slave completely turns when John comes to her plantation. One night when John was begging for tobacco, Sarny trades the tobacco she has in exchange for three letters: A, B, and C. Regardless of the many warnings Sarny receives, she continues to trade with John in an effort to learn to read and write. With the excitement of knowledge filling her, Sarny writes her very first word all over the plantation, remembering to wipe it out of course. However, the master sees her writing and immediately knows someone has been teaching her to read and write. Finally, John confesses and his two toes are cut off. Instead of giving up, courageous John runs away and only returns in the night to take Sarny and many other brave slaves to "school" where they continue learning to read and write.
I liked this story, because the writing was very true to the time period. The setting took place on a plantation during the period of slavery, and story took the point of view of a young, uneducated slave. The writing and dialogue stayed very true to this period and language of this character. For example, Sarny says "don't know nothing about writing" when the master catches her writing her first word in the dirt. This dialogue really makes the reader feel as if the story is actually happening in front of them as this situation would occur in real life.
Also, I really liked this book, because of brave and courageous characters in the story. Sarny is warned multiple times of the consequences of learning to read. Mammy says, "Child, they'll cut your thumbs off if you learn to read" (p.54). But regardless, Sarny wants the knowledge and power of reading and writing, so she continues to learn. Also, John gets caught teaching Sarny and even loses his toes for it. But still, John comes back in the middle of night for Sarny, "School-we got to go to school. Don't you want to learn the rest of the letters?" (p.85). Along with the true language and courageous characters, the story has a powerful big message of taking a stand against segregation and displaying the power of education, words, and writing. There's only one way to inform the world of the experiences they have been through as slaves: telling the world through writing.
This book is about a young slave girl named Sarny. A slave named Nightjohn is brought to the plantation. He begins to teach Sarny how to read and write. The problem is that slaves are not supposed to learn/know how to read and write, so it is a dangerous lesson. I liked this book. I think it would appeal to children because Sarny is close in age to them, if not slightly older. It would be a good way for them to connect to children that were slaves and learn more about how slavery worked. I think I would use this with older children, maybe late in the year for 3rd graders at the earliest. I think it has some intense parts, and I would want think about how my students would react to those. I would use it in a unit on the Civil War and Slavery.

Amazon.com Amazon.com Review (ISBN 0440219361, Paperback)Imagine being beaten for learning to read, shackled and whipped for learning a few letters of the alphabet. Now, imagine a man brave enough to risk torture in order to teach others how to read; his name is Nightjohn, and he sneaks into the slave camps at night to teach other slaves how to read and write. Celebrated author Gary Paulsen writes a searing meditation on why the ability to read and write is radical, empowering , and so necessary to our freedom. These skills threaten our oppressors because they allow us to communicate--to learn the real status of our slavery and to seek liberation. In this tightly written, painful, joyous little novel is a key that may unlock the power of reading for even the most reluctant teens.

Twelve-year-old Sarny's brutal life as a slave becomes even more dangerous when a newly arrived slave offers to teach her how to read.

Happy All Hallow's Eve!
Nipha, the Ghost Puppy, is wishing everyone a Happy All Hallow's Eve on the day "which is the last day of the harvest and the first day of the dark of winter". A day in which the veil between worlds thins and the spirits of the dead walk the Earth to be among the living (photo above taken by Lino Innocenzi).
So, watch out tonight while you're trick-or-treating! You might encounter something you never expected!
Happy Halloween!

Nipha, the White Beauty
For anyone who's read The Legend of the Raie'Chaelia, they will remember Nipha as the beautiful, intelligent, and powerful horse who lives in the snowy mountains of the Trui'Quirre and who plays a major role in the story. I named the horse Nipha because it is the Greek word for snow, very fitting given her environment.
But today, I'm not going to be talking about Nipha of the Trui'Quirre, but of a new little being, born in September of this year, who has inherited the same name.
Who is she, you ask?
Meet Nipha, the White Beauty, the Dogo Argentino (photo below taken by Prince McClinton).
She is my new baby girl who arrived at my house on October 24th and who has taken up permanent residence in my home and in my heart (photo below taken by Lino Innocenzi).
At only 6 weeks, she is already taking on two dogs at a time during her playing hours. Here is she playing with the neighbors dogs, Muffin and Piper, on the lawn:
As for her breed, Dogos aren't really well known in the U.S., but they really are some of the best dogs in the world. They are intelligent, strong, protective, and loyal. They make good hunters, search & rescue dogs, and family dogs. They are also used in the military and police work.
So, how did such a breed of canine come to exist? Here's a little history on the making of Dogos:
In 1928, Antonio Nores Martinez, a medical doctor, professor and surgeon, set out to breed a big game hunting dog that was also capable of being a loyal pet and guard dog. Antonio Martinez picked the Cordoba Fighting Dog to be the base for the breed.[11] This breed is extinct today, but it was said that as a large and ferocious dog, it was a great hunter. Martinez crossed it with the Great Dane, Boxer, Spanish Mastiff, Old English Bulldog, Bull Terrier, Great Pyrenees, Pointer, Irish Wolfhound and Dogue de Bordeaux.[11] Nores Martinez continued to develop the breed via selective breeding to introduce the desired traits.
In fact, he bred the dog so well, there is one named Morocho, who is famously known for killing a puma to save its family:
And that's it! That's the Dogo in a nutshell. Pretty impressive, ey?
All I can really say is that I'm grateful to have learned about Dogos and to be the proud adoptive parent of one that is the sweetest little girl in the world.

Thor: The Dark World
Although this movie came out last November, I'm just now getting around to reviewing it, but before I do, here's the original trailer:
As far as plots go, the critics were right. It was fairly mediocre, but, really … who cares? I didn't exactly go see the film because of the plot, which I knew would be storyboard anyway. I would love to claim that I am above these basic, hedonistic desires, but alas, I am not. I went to see it for the same reason all females watch the Thor movies — to see the most gorgeous man in the history of the human race, Thor Hemsworth, swing his mighty hammer, and to watch his brother, Loki Hiddleston, whose appeal lies solely in his sexy style and clever moves, weasel his way into the throne … again.
But I mean, really, shouldn't the characters of the Nine Realms know by now that they can't trust Loki and that he doesn't ever die? This is the second time Thor has mourned the death of his brother. You'd think he would have learned the first time! Sadly, he does not. Although, I have to say I wasn't disappointed with the ending. I was rooting for Loki the whole time and he finally got what he wanted. Finally. So did Thor. Happy endings for all … well, except for Odin and Frigga. But that, I won't talk about as I don't want to give it away.
Overall, I loved the movie as much as the first one, but this one left me with so many questions. Like, who the heck was the Circus Vargas lookin' guy at the end of the credits? You know, the one who accepts the Aether? Never seen him before. And what happened to Odin at the end? What did Loki do with him? Did he kill him or did Odin just go into another Odinsleep? The movie doesn't tell you.
Also, where were the Avengers? Captain fury established the Avengers so that they would come together in a time of need, when Earth was threatened, and yet, you see absolutely NO Avengers. Just Thor. But I suppose it is a Thor movie so … All the same, I had to point out that glaringly obvious plot hole.
Another question that burned in the back of my mind was about Frigga. Is she Loki's real mother or not? Or is she just his adoptive mother? What did she mean when she said: "Always so perceptive about everyone else but yourself"? And then she vanished using her magic. Did he inherit her magic, or did she teach it to him? Also, how is it that when he's with the people of Asgard, he's not blue like the frost giants? And why was he born so small? Is it because he is actually biologically related to Frigga?
And speaking of Frigga … Is it just me, or did her hair look absolutely ridiculous in this movie? They made her look like a fraggle, and that's insulting because Rene Russo is a beautiful woman. But at least Frigga could actually fight this time around and got to kick some dark-elf butt. She must have been taking some fighting lessons from her husband and son because in the first movie, Laufey just kind of casually pushes her aside, like she's this annoying little fly. In this one, she slashes her blade like nobody's business. I liked the fact that she was much more formidable in this movie.
For the most part, I loved this sequel. Aside from the missing sub-stories (like Heimdall, who commits treason a second time, but who always manages to keep his job) and the creative physics, it was a good action flick. Yes, it had its problems, but overall, it was worth the money paid. I think my feelings on the movie are best summed up in the Screen Junkies Honest Trailers. I swear, these are getting funnier!
Happy Viewing!

Avg Rating: 4.0 ( 2 votes )
A formula for success: Knowing the apple doesn't fall far from the tree. On the new Project Pat single, Purple, producer Juicy J simply samples his own song Stay Fly. The result is another catchy chorus and a verse from the underrated and formerly incarcerated, Beanie Sigel.

Another View -- Todd Selig: In praise of moderation along the Merrimack
Like the Merrimack, thoughtful moderation at the very equilibrium of the political spectrum has been a source of sustained nourishment fostering good governance and thoughtful decision-making in New Hampshire for more than two centuries.
Moderation, in a time of extremism, does not get a lot of respect, yet it is a necessary quality for the effective functioning of democracy. Moderate thinking has benefited our state capital, itself located in the heart of the Merrimack Valley, in innumerable ways and it has many attributes. Moderation is a personal characteristic, related to reason, balanced judgment, and tolerance. It is also a constitutional vision that frowns upon rigidity and embraces innovative solutions and thoughtful compromise to address society's most pressing needs.
Through the centuries moderation has been linked with support for a balance of power, with "checks and balances" between branches of government. Indeed, the founders of our nation and our state embraced such an approach with the creation of the three branches of government we use today: executive, legislative and judicial.
Moderate individuals take their cues from history books and objective data, not philosophy books. That is, a moderate is not inextricably committed to an abstract idea. Instead, he or she has a deep appreciation for the way people live in this state and the core principles behind that way of life: hard work; individualism; natural landscape; small, yet highly effective government; low taxes; quality education; good fences making good neighbors.
Moderates realize we have a tradition of healthy conflict in New Hampshire. They do not try to solve those differences of opinion. "There are no ultimate solutions," writes David Brooks of The New York Times on the topic of moderation. Most public debates worth having encompass choices and tradeoffs involving at least two partially true points of view, which sit in tension to one another. The moderate tries to find an equitable solution between them given present circumstances and constraints, while respecting the will of the majority and at the same time protecting the interests of the minority.
The passing of time brings with it new challenges - the Industrial Revolution, the Cold War, climate change, the Great Recession - all of which at a given point in history have upset the balance. But our system of democratic governance works best over time to reach a sustainable equilibrium through moderation.
The moderate in New Hampshire governance is the metaphorical captain who unrelentingly trims the sails to keep the ship of state on an even keel through changing currents, shifting winds and bends in the riverbed.
New Hampshire in 2013 faces serious issues. Slow economic growth, stagnant revenue, an aging workforce, inadequate funding for the state's university system, widespread public infrastructure in need of investment, the Northern Pass, the expansion of gambling, questions surrounding gun control, funding for public education, and whether to extend commuter rail from Concord through Manchester and Nashua to Boston, to name but a few.
It will take energetic, hard-hitting policies to solve these challenges. Such policies will ultimately find sustained support at the equilibrium of the spectrum through moderation.
There are indeed times and circumstances that demand forms of extremism rather than compromise, for short duration. Yet like binge eating or drinking, extremism is not sustainable or healthful for an individual or for New Hampshire over time. Moderation is.
Edmund Burke once wrote that moderation is "the virtue only of superior minds." It takes courage indeed these days to be moderate. But like the mighty Merrimack, it is the river that binds us.

Top Chef Reunion
Gail: it was so close. Except that's not what she wrote.
I'd rather it be about the chefs and leave the judges and Andy whoever in another city.
re: Phaedrus
The birthday curse is hysterical - they never said anything about that except for one person - Daniel!
As for the tee-shirts - next week's TV Guide Magazine has an article about what you'll not see in the reunion special (why it's in NEXT week's issue, I don't know).....but I guess Fabio and Stefan brought in a suitcase with gifts for everyone - Stefan got everyone custom-made knife holders, and Fabio gave out personalized T-shirts bearing some of his memorable quotes! They show Tom in a picture holding one that says "If I don't like your food, it's just my opinion! Fabio"
I guess most of the funniest moments occur when the cameras weren't rolling - like the cheftestants encouraging Ariane to go on the upcoming The Real Housewives of New Jersey (she says no!) and Jeff mimicing his cheesy wink and the "ding!" sound from the opening credits. :-)
But the best part of the article was this paragraph about Jeff: "Jeff also recalls being burned in the Today show challenge, when his food was spat out by a theatrical Kathie Lee Gifford. He points out that Gifford has dined at his restaurant, adding drily 'She puts ketchup on her steak.' "
re: LindaWhit
If I didn't like Kathy Lee before, I hate her now with the ketchup.
re: Phaedrus
LOL! I read that sentence in and said "Ewwwww! That's just wrong!" But then I realize who we were talking about - someone with no taste whatsoever.
re: Phaedrus
oh, i already hated her, and that just gave me more ammunition :)
re: goodhealthgourmet
That was great! I can't wait to see what the Bravo TC t-shirt is going to be. <vbg>
re: edible complex
Well, both of their respective others broke up with both of them...and Hosea would certainly entertain the idea of moving to NYC. So it could continue beyond the "really good friends" Hosea claims it is.
re: LindaWhit
This is downright tawdry, but Page Six last week had an item about Hosea and Leah canoodling in public.
re: harrie
"...West Village hot spot Ma- dame X, contestants Leah Cohen and Hosea Rosenberg were passionately making out at the bar. "They were really going at it," a bartender said. "
Guess that answers the unanswered query from the reunion show. Definitely more than friends with benefits.
re: LindaWhit
not neccesarily more - perhaps just that
re: LindaWhit
Doesn't she have an apartment here? Making out in public like that is so juvenile. why does it NOT surprise me?
re: ChefJune
I don't recall if she said she had an apt. in NYC, but I agree re: the sucking face in a public place. Doesn't say a whole lot about either of them.
re: LindaWhit
i love when people make out in public. as my ozzie friends would say - good on ya
re: LindaWhit
Friends with benefits?
re: Ericandblueboy
re: Ericandblueboy
Are you looking for a definition or doubting that they are in fact "friends with benefits?"
re: Phaedrus
Stefan on Padma: Oh Padma, I get schweaty armpits just looking at her.
Stand in line buddy!
re: Phaedrus
i know, very innovative!
re: Phaedrus
They made a Glad bag mattress - I love it!
re: LindaWhit
That actually looked pretty comfy...and it was pretty darn brilliant too.
re: LindaWhit
Mattress, pillows and several different sporting events courts with equipment! I'm impressed.
2 Things:
I didn't even recognize Arianne! I was trying to figure out who she was for the 1st 1/3 of the show. I almost thought she was Radhika at some point.
And I HEART FABIO! He is so adorable and funny. They should give him his own show. Maybe a road show with Stefan. It would be great....a travel and cooking show.
re: Elyssa
Fabio is supposed to be getting his own show - he isn't able to yet talk about it, but several interviews have intimated so - one of them ended with "Watch What Happens!" - so maybe it's on Bravo?
re: LindaWhit
i'd *love* to see his show on Bravo. perhaps it'll fill the Runway void...?
re: goodhealthgourmet
Since that show is in major limbo (who knows if it'll ever be viewed!), that's a possibility - not sure what type of show they'd form around him tho...regardless, Fabio would make it fun!
i just laughed so hard when they showed Stefan's reaction to seeing Padma in the infamous nipple dress that i spit out my tea!
Ariane the cougar. Roar!
Daniele Boulud doing your wedding dinner, very cool.
Ah, Jamie the whiner! I want to see her explanation. She blames it on the pressure.
re: Phaedrus
Tom puts up with BOTH sexes havin' a hankering for him - poor baby! LOL
re: LindaWhit
I guess none of the guys lusted after Pdam, except for Stefan. HA!
re: Phaedrus
Stefan said (TV Guide article) that one of his favorite TC moments was smoking with Padma after the finale wrapped.
And I guess Hosea had an "I love Padma" t-shirt made before going on the show - said he wasn't sure he get the chance to tell her in person.
Hey! Talking about T-shirts - they didn't have one in particular as this season's t-shirt to sell on the Bravo site! OK - just went to the shopping site - looks like they have several from this season:
I (heart) Padma
I'm a Cougar in the Kitchen
I (Heart) Fabio (with his picture!)
Team Rainbow
and the best of all? Top Scallop!
re: LindaWhit
I guess "This isn't Top P___y" didn't make it.
Nor did "We can serve monkey ass on a clam shell and win".
re: Phaedrus
i forgot whether it was Toby Young or Andy Cohen, but did you notice they didn't bleep it when he said Top Pussy?
re: goodhealthgourmet
It was Toby, and I was surprised! Let's see - Fabio says it on a show airing at 10pm, and it's bleeped, but Toby says it on a 9pm airing, and it's OK?
The *only* reason I can think of is that the Reunion show is a one-time showing, whereas the episodes are aired as repeats at all times of the day. Perhaps that's the reason why.
re: LindaWhit
the reunion isn't a one-time showing. i'm pretty sure they rerun it.
re: goodhealthgourmet
I don't recall having seen it another time in past seasons. But maybe because the show was finally over and it's just a wrap-up that I don't look for it.
re: LindaWhit
Oh No!
They better re-run it because I didn't stay up for it - and I forgot to tivo it!!
re: NellyNel
Nelly - check the Bravo schedule here:
Looks like they *do* repeat it tonight at 7pm EST and Saturday @ 3pm...I'm sure there are more times set as well.
re: LindaWhit
Thanks Linda! I'll def watch it tonight!
re: Phaedrus
I did notice that when that "monkey ass on an empty clam shell" line was shown again, they cut away to Tom just cracking up!
re: Phaedrus
I just rewatched the Fabio part and they definitely have the monkey ass remark on the show. I've also seen that top pussy was bleeped, not in my market. I think some markets are censored differently.
re: LindaWhit
I like the Top Scallop one :)
re: LindaWhit
it was sort of obvious. they ribbed Stefan about it, and then showed that "Obamafied" photo of Carla, but didn't say anything about Fabio...and we all knew it would be him or Carla.
re: LindaWhit
I was really rooting for her. Seems like Fabio got the most publicity out of the bunch, signing deals with Ducati, the frozen pizza company, Pellogrino, Food and Wine and is in talks with some other folks. Plus -- a TV show!
I'm still waiting for Carla to do her own show.
re: Ima Wurdibitsch
i would have loved to see that- someone should do one & put it on YouTube...though i'm guessing there are many cutting-room floor gems we never had the pleasure to see that will be relegated to the depths of the Bravo archives.
re: roxlet
she was definitely subdued. i can't say i'm surprised - she's probably still beating herself up for imploding at the finale.
re: TrishUntrapped
I still believe Jeff used his watch as a mirror.
re: TrishUntrapped
I think Stefan was acting as a collaborator, signaling Jeff which item to pick. Since they were laid out in a 3x3 grid it is fairly easy to work out some sort of discrete signal to let him know to choose, for example row 2, column 1.
"Andy whoever" is the guy who makes it possible for you to enjoy "Top Chef": http://chowhound.chow.com/topics/5996...
re: ChinoWayne
Well, Andy Whoever might be a terrific Senior Vice President of Production & Programming, but he's a terrible host, imo.
re: ChinoWayne
No, Andy doesn't make it possible for me to enjoy "Top Chef". He's the guy who pushes himself forward (see the now defunct After Hours that he used to host after Project Runway.)
The chefs make it possible to enjoy the show. Most of the production crew add something.
Suits in offices make decisions, but they don't do the work. When this particular suit interjects himself into a show and inserts "Bravo.com" in every sentence, he does nothint to the enjoyment factor.
re: shallots
You do realize that on the food chain Andy is the guy who "owns" all the Bravo reality shows, and without his backing, there probably would not be any "Top Chef". He is likely the "suit" who has the most power to green light or nix the production of "Top Chef".
In my view he is a very savvy television production executive, he knows the demographic he is targeting with his programming decisions and apparently is very successful with it. Don't confuse "Andy" the character who hosts the reunion shows with an apparently very astute, successful, and possibly very pragmatic business man.
At the end of the day "Top Chef" is nothing more than TELEVISION and TELEVISION is nothing more than BUSINESS. Every character on "Top Chef", from the contestant chefs, to Padma, to Collichio is playing a role based on their real persona's, but a role all the same, for TELEVISION ENTERTAINMENT.
re: ChinoWayne
From a profile of Bravo president Laurenc Zalaznik this fall (one of many profiles), the success of Bravo seems to belong to folks other than Andy.
re: shallots
I thought of Zalasnick too, reading this thread. Here's a nice long interview/discussion with her, Gail Simmons and Tim Gunn -- it probably came out the same time as that article, it's a "TimesTalks" podcast -- I got it on i-tunes. It's been a while now since I listened to it, but I enjoyed it, and so might the obsessed on this thread: http://nytimes.whsites.net/talk/podca...
honestly - i felt dirty and used after watching this. bravo was just sucking me in (i mean this is what all TV is anyway - but here it was more egregious) to watch advertising.
the entire hour i kept asking myself "why the f@ck am i watching this?" and yet i didn't turn it off either. I feel used.
re: thew
I'm a little tired of the Fabio/Stefan/LeaHo show, I wish they had focused a little more on the chefs who weren't around as long.
I did enjoy Leah and Jamie being hammered at judges table.
Annoyed yet again at the obsession with Radkina using Indian seasonings. Why is that such an issue? How many times did Fabio make pasta? Everyone had their go-to style.
re: tofuburrito
Speaking of LeaHo, did you see the nickname the other cheftestants gave her on the white board?
And after I logged off last night, I realized they had given virtually NO time to Eugene, except for that stupid hair thing.
re: LindaWhit
What was the nickname?
re: Elyssa
I can't recall it exactly, Elyssa - but it was something similar to LeaHo-ho-ho - I'd have to watch the show again tonight at 7 to recall. tofuburrito's comment about LeaHo reminded me of it.
re: LindaWhit
It was Leah, Ho-fo-show.
Yeah, too bad about Eugene. I think even Patrick got more screen time.
re: Miss Needle
THAT'S it. :-) (Leah's nickname)
And yes, Patrick and whoever was that woman who didn't get to play in the TC kitchen got more airtime than Eugene.
re: LindaWhit
Yeah, but Eugene got more air time than Alex!
re: NellyNel
Alex? Who's alex? ;)
re: Phaedrus
Before I posted that - I did have to check out the Bravo site to find his name!
re: NellyNel
Just like I forgot Lauren and Patrick, although Alex did last a tad longer.
i was thinking that it would be interesting for them to follow up on those that got sent home early, but then they keep bringing them back to compete.
re: Phaedrus
Or have a season with all the chefs that got eliminated in the first 2 weeks.
That would be fun
re: NellyNel
Isn't that called Hell's Kitchen with Gordon Ramsey? ;)
re: Phaedrus
I feel like this year there were far more forgettable cheftestants then in years past. It seems like the first few weeks were getting rid of the forgettable ones. There are a number of memorable folks---Stefan, Jamie, Fabio, Carla etc--this season, but almost from the beginning they were focused on. (Probably because the other guys were not only not as good at cooking but also not as dynamic.)
re: tofuburrito
Just a guess here...
Perhaps Radhika's use of Indian seasonings rubs people the wrong way (whereas Fabio's use of pasta doesn't) is because in an early episode (episode #1 iirc) Radhika made a little deal about how she didn't want to be typecast as the "chef who always cooks Indian" when in fact that's exactly what she ended up typecasting herself as.
re: tofuburrito
"nnoyed yet again at the obsession with Radkina using Indian seasonings.Why is that such an issue? How many times did Fabio make pasta?"
because fabio did not continually state he did not want to be seen as an italian chef while using italian ingredients, while radikha did keep saying she wanted to be seen as more than an indian chef, while using indian spicings....
re: thew
Did she continually state that? My recollection is that one time she said something to the effect that she wanted to be known for more than Indian cooking.
If you look at her menu at Between:
I think you can see some Indian influence but you wouldn't call it an Indian restaurant. I don't see why a statement about wanting show her range as a chef keeps being brought up as though her cooking is contrary to her statement.
re: tofuburrito
i seem to recall hearing a few times, but wouldn;t swear to it.
i have no problem with her use of indian spicing. but i do think her heavy reliance on it is not the way to go about not being pigeonholed as one who relies on that flavor set....
re: thew
I think she is truly having an identity crisis. A conscious decision to not use the spices is one thing, being defensive and broadcasting is all over the group and the national air waves is another.
I think she does want to avoid being typecast but you do it by your action rather than just mouthing a line.
re: Phaedrus
I think if she had been around longer we would have seen some more diverse cooking.
She is young and in my opinion she has a lot of talent, so she's still working it out.
I gotta get one!
From Stefans clothing line :
oh my gosh - there is an "I love lesbians" shirt!!
re: NellyNel
Along with a few other choice Stefan comments memorialized in tee-shirts. <vbg>
And he's got a book coming out in May 2009 with a great title: "Dirty Dishes: Stefan's Life Story, A Few Recipes, a Bunch of Dirty Dishes, and Other Schmutz."
re: LindaWhit
Love it!
My DH is English - and uses that one word quite a bit!
I HAVE to order that for him!
re: NellyNel
"My DH is English - and uses that one word quite a bit!"
Schmutz is a Yiddish word, derived from German.
re: goodhealthgourmet
My mother had a Yiddish dictionary, and we (my sister and I) loved going through it and finding "fun words" to use (that weren't dirty). Schmutz was definitely one of them. Tchotckes, plotz, and schlep were others. Our friends never knew what the hell we were talking about.
re: LindaWhit
Schmutz and "Mushugana" (SP??) are 2 of my favorite Yiddish things to say!
But I was referring to a different word - the one that begins with "T" and ends with "T"!
re: NellyNel
Ahh, yes - I thought you were referring to the book title. And no surprise that Stefan has that particular word on a t-shirt - that's the word that Bravo got through the censors. :-)
re: LindaWhit
"Love it!
My DH is English - and uses that one word quite a bit!
I HAVE to order that for him!"
"Sorry - my bad - I meant to write a sentence in between the two referring to the t-shirts! -
I realize allot of my posts don't make a heck of allot of sense!!
re: NellyNel
oops, yeah, sorry NellyNel...i didn't bother following the link to the t-shirts before, so i assumed you were referring to the book title.
re: NellyNel
I am a shiksa who had the honor of being mentored by a very fine Jewish gentleman named Sidney Berman. He taught me a lot of good words so that I shouldn't sound so, well, gentile.
Schmutz was one of my faves, along with Schvittz.
When the weather is gray and dreary, or when the winter white snow has turned to icky slush, we say it's "schmutzy" .
Example: I don't feel like going to the store; it's really schmutzy outside.
Another usage would be: You can't wear that jacket to dinner -- it's got schmutz all over the collar!
Schvitz is like a sprinkle. When it's not really raining, and not even spronkling, it's schvitzing. If you are really sweaty, you are scvitzing. If you just got finished working out, and you don't have time for a shower, you could use a little schvitz of perfume.
And then there is the word Gonif. Thief. Example: Politicians? Gonifs! All they do is take your money!
re: PattiCakes
Yes Schvitz!
As in "Stefan makes me schvitz"!!!
re: NellyNel
"Stefan on Padma: Oh Padma, I get schweaty armpits just looking at her."
And Padma makes Stefan schvitz!
re: LindaWhit
Uh, and thongs...
I love Jeff. I thought the clip about his food being all over the place with everything but the kitchen sink was great. Anyone with ADHD can relate to that. "Hey, I can make xxx but then add yyy, but wait, what if I do zzzz, too and then...." And, he was so funny about how his wife pointed out that they always showed him w/out a shirt. "Might have closed the door more..."
The thing this reunion did was reinforce for me how immature Leah is. That the cast included others the same age just shows her up for the teenager-in-adult clothing she seems to be.

Think preventive medicine will save money? Think again
Reuters, January 29, 2013
It seems like a no-brainer. Since about 75 percent of healthcare spending in the United States is for largely preventable chronic illnesses such as Type 2 diabetes and heart disease, providing more preventive care should cut costs. If only. In a report released on Tuesday, the non-profit Trust for America's Health outlined a plan "to move from sick care to health care" by putting more resources into preventing chronic disease rather than treating it, as the current system does. There is a strong humanitarian justification for prevention, argued Trust Executive Director Jeffrey Levi in an interview, since it reduces human suffering.

Since the goal here is to cut down on malicious ratings, the only other thing we'd need to almost completely wipe out false ratings is to publicly display the buyers' average rating on their profile page (the same way authors display the average rating for their items). This way, we'll know which usernames are being used strictly to sabotage other authors and ban them from the marketplace.
A massive +1 from me!
Every marketplace user should have a ratings profile. If they are repeatedly shaming authors it should be traceable and knowable by all authors/buyers.
It's imperative that the long-term goal of ratings is to establish accountability. Anonymity does not create honest systems. If a user does not want his rating public, then he cannot rate an item (like: Amazon).
These safeguards need to come to protect against competitors / angry buyers who use ratings to hurt an author.
Never has a more truer word been spoken.
Type, type & type. Truly strong type combinations are always key for me. Get those down early on, and I feel that everything flows organically from that.
Now where did I put that Comic Sans & Lobster combo
Hi angrothemes,
Let me pick up on some issues that I see.
Typography – Try some different font combinations. Maybe a San-Serif for your headings, and a serif font for your body copy. The type currently looks really bland.
Animations – The animation (text) in the header cheapens the designs completely. Looks like someone who has discovered animations for the first time. Get rid of it.
White Space – Take a look through the theme, there are issues everywhere. Let the design breathe a little.
For me, in all my designs, type is key. Font combinations can make, or break a design.
Congratulations. Again, as others have said, you produce fantastic work, and thoroughly deserved.
Stunning. And you have a room called Manchester, big love on that point.

Me: 18, very fair, very sensitive, combination skin (oily forehead and nose, dry cheeks)
I've tried a few of the Body Shop's Tea Tree Oil products as a friend of mine uses their cleaner and toner religiously. Unfortunately, the menthol in this mask is far too harsh for my skin. I use pure tea tree oil on my skin on a regular basis without any burning sensations, but after I used this mask, my face was very red and painful to the touch. About a day later, I discovered several new "little friends" in the form of new pimples. I'm not a fan of the Body Shop's long list of facial care ingredients, especially considering their marketing as a natural company. For example, the limonene in this mask is also used as a paint stripper; myristyl myristate is listed at a 5 (the highest ranking) on the comedogenic scale. Using this product as an acne treatment will likely aggravate breakouts for most people.

Although I did enjoy this mask because it gave me the "cooling" sensation without drying up like clay masks, it simply didn't do anything for my blemishes, which is probably because the tea tree oil percentage is so low. Using your normal cleanser and some tea tree oil on a q-tip for spot treatments will do you a lot more good than this mask so don't waste your money on it if you are actually looking for something to clear up your skin.
More reviews by imarussiandoll
I don't have much experience with facial masks but I kinda like this mask. I wouldn't buy it for the full price but since it was on sale I grabbed it. I like how this mask feels when you have it on, it's really refreshing and cooling. I don't know if it does much for my breakouts but meh, it's okey.
I LOVE this mask! I don't mind the packaging because before I dip my fingers in, my hands are obviously washed, thus minimizing the contamination process. This mask is so refreshing and I have super oily/acne prone skin. I've been using it almost every day and it's made my skin free of break outs. I don't lie when I say my skin is super oily and using this mask every day has made it a little dry, but I have moisturizers to take care of that. I'd rather have my skin a little dry rather than have pimples. But it's a great value and will work for those who have super oily skin or acne prone skin.
2 out of 2 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
i think i paid about 16 dollars for this product. ive used it about five times now. ive got to say im not exactly sure WHAT its doing to my skin but its definitely doing something. i use it at night and will remove my makeup with EVOO and then apply the mask directly over it so it seals in all the oil. i let it sit for 15 minutes and then hop in the shower and take it off then go about my normal routine. and ever since i started using it, my skin feels like it can breath so much better right after i take it off. also, when i have those lazy nights and fall asleep without washing my face (we all have them, dont lie haha) i dont wake up with a blemish or two on my face anymore! i useto never get away with that i would always pay the price the next morning. down side to this product obviously is the packaging. I spoon it out and then dump the spoon full on my hand so that im never dipping my fingers into the actual tub. it doesnt take a lot of this to do the trick. first time i used it it was VERY tingly, almost unpleasant. but it went away and now when i use it it barely tingles. also mask doesnt dry.
The Tea Tree Oil line at The Body Shop is formulated for acne-prone skin. And yet, this mask broke me out. I have sensitive skin so I'm used to getting rashes from things that my skin dislikes, but rarely do I get pimples from things my skin dislikes. This stuff gave me pimples.
That said, that's me. Other things about this:
Colour: a kind of greyish-green clay look to it (it contains kaolin clay so no surprise there)
Smell: the camphorous smell of tea tree oil (which some love -me- and others find "medicinal" at best), combined with what I can only describe as "skin care smell" - that smell of plastic-packaged cream or lotion. Plus a bit musty.
Texture: again, no surprises: thick, clay-like, goes on like spreading wet clay on your face; dries fairly quickly (supposed to keep on for 10 min or so) and doesn't do the crusty falling off thing that some do when they dry and you happen to move your face.
If you're feeling lucky maybe give it a try. But don't overestimate your chances. It's made for acne-prone skin, but even so...
I just bought this and tried it out today. I personally love the tea tree oil line at the body shop and its done wonders for my skin so I decided to give this a go. It smells pretty much the same as the rest of the tea tree products, except maybe a little less strong. It's nice to apply, not to thick or thin, and I found I really didn't need too much of it. I left it on for about 15 minutes. The label said the product doesn't dry but for me it did, which was good.
Washing it off was a little weird, I found it left a bit of a gummy layer on my face. I just use my hands to wash my face and I think this problem could be easily remedied by just using a wash cloth. One thing I liked about this product was that it wasn't too drying, unlike some other TBS tea tree oil products. It made my skin feel smooth, too.
Looking at my face a couple hours later, it's really nice. The redness I have is really reduced and overall I'm liking this so far!
PS - The instructions for using the mask (or any body shop product, really) are on the bottom of the container - you have to peel back a layer and underneath it gives you directions.
More reviews by PaleInComparison
Love this mask, I thought it was a bit pricey but for the amount I use to cover my whole face it's a good deal. I actually don't hate that it is in a jar, I find it easier for face masks because tubes always end up getting lost in the mine field that is my beauty care collection.
Anyways, I really do love this mask. It's very refreshing and tingles upon application, dries well and is absolutely great for stubborn breakouts that refuse to come to the surface. I have managed to almost control my breakouts but I get about one pimple a week these days and they are usually very painful and deep. One thick application of this stuff usually brings them to the surface and alleviates my suffering. Before I got this I had a very painful one right under my nose for several days- once I put it on the next day it was all but gone and no more pain! I do recommend you apply this a little heavy handed- I find when I only apply a thin layer I get much less of the glowy effect and that it doesn't work as well on pimples. Also awesome as a spot treatment before bed! For my fair skin this is a wonderful product and it really brings out the natural beauty of my skin, my boyfriend even complimented me on how nice my skin looked.
This product is awesome. I have very acne prone, sensitive skin and this product did not irritate my skin at all. Tea tree oil has anti-bacterial qualities which helped sooth any pimples that I may have had at the time and withdraw any excess sebum from my skin. You can actually see the sebum (gross I know) on your face before you wash the product off.
This is one of the best mask I have ever used and I am going to buy it over and over! I get my entire face waxed every two months with no problems, but this past time I broke out very bad and my face became very irritated. My skin felt sore and I had little red bumps everywhere. I went to the body shop and they recommended this. I used it the day after my wax and I swear the next day my skin was 75% better. I was back to normal within 2-3 days! This stuff really soothes your skin, it gets rid of that irritation feel and treats acne to wear it heals very fast!

The 17-year-old forward has been one of the best young players in France this season and has caught the eye with a string of impressive displays.
On the back of his form, it was reported in France that both Arsenal and Manchester United had dispatched scouts and received favourable reports on him.
Belgian-born Hazard has also caught the eye of his national coach Rene Vandereycken, who has promoted him to the senior squad for their match with Luxembourg.
He may be attracting attention, but Lille are set to beat off any interest by signing Hazard to a new contract.
Hazard is set to sign a three-year extension to his current deal, taking him to 2012.

The hotel is good in location for those people who travells by car. It is easy to find (no problems from "tangenziale").No problems with car parking.The Alga hotel is close to the underground st.Famagosta. One bus stop.First I worried about bus (where?how?) but then I saw no problems with it. My room was clean and comfortable enough. Breakfast was poor in choice, but it was enough for me. Small bar. Only coffee, tea. But in general, Alga deserves to stay there.
