Any sushi places with happy hour prices or specials?
- DoctorQuality May 3, 2007 06:03 PM
en sushi does....not the greatest sushi but its decent and its fairly hip.....plus their west la location is walking distance for me. =)
check out their website for the deals:
re: wilafur
this is what I was going to suggest too. It's not the greatest sushi ever, but they have some decent rolls and it's a fun place to hang out.
i'm a huge fan of sushi, but can't fork over the cash too often. some places have happy hour specials with discounted prices. i know it's most likely not going to be the cream of the crop, but as long as it's decent and doesn't cost too much, i don't mind. i'm willing to go anywhere in the LA area.
re: DoctorQuality
Chaya Venice has a decent happy hour.
re: DoctorQuality
Just a suggestion, how about lunch time choices? Sushi Gen has a sashimi lunch that is inexpensive. Sushi Go 55 does as well. They are both in Little Tokyo.
I would much rather shell out the 13 or so for the lunch specials than get 5 orders of "cheap" sushi. You stomach will thank you in the end.
Wabi Sabi in Abbot Kinney, I think it gets mixed reviews on here, but I always love it.
And yes, on the topic, they have pretty good happy hour deals
Here is my list of edible, cheap sushi. Not necessarily Happy Hour, but cheap.
Crazy Tokyo Sushi in Woodland Hills (bad service) or the other location (Encino): they have 1/2 price sushi all day for everything but super special rolls. It's pretty good deal and the sushi is not bad, but the service in the WH location is not so good, unless you sit at the bar.
Sushi 5 in Tustin: fresh, yummy, revolving sushi (no sashimi) for $2.50 a plate for everything (check out elmomonster's website for more info)
Kiyozuzu in Arcadia: sushi combo lunch for around $6, dinner combos from around $10 (ordering sushi by itself can cost more though)
Sushi Mac- its $2.75 a plate (from 2 pieces to 6). It's a quick bite to eat kind of place that usually plays. Not the best sushi and it satifies my sushi urges.
Zencu in Little Tokyo has happy hour prices (half price rolls, 99 cent Kirin), but the quality and service are both suspect. I go here to have sushi with my beer, not the other way around.
I also go to Sushi of Naples in Pasadena for their happy hour, but rarely order sushi. The happy hour prices also only apply if you sit at the 7 person bar.

Apple steps up labor audits, finds underage workers
SAN FRANCISCO (Reuters) - Apple Inc(AAPL.O) stepped up audits of working conditions at major suppliers last year, discovering multiple cases of underage workers, discrimination and wage problems.
The iPhone and iPad maker, which relies heavily on Asian-based partners like Taiwan's Foxconn Technology Group to assemble the vast majority of its iPhones and iPads, said on Thursday it conducted 393 audits, up 72 percent from 2011, reviewing sites where over 1.5 million workers make its gadgets.
Apple in recent years has faced accusations of building its profits on the backs of poorly treated and severely underpaid workers in China.
That criticism came to the fore around 2010, after reports of suicides at Foxconn drew attention to the long hours that migrant laborers frequently endure, often for a pittance in wages and in severely cramped living conditions.
Foxconn is the trading name of Hon Hai Precision Industry (2317.TW) and employs 1.2 million workers across China.
Under Chief Executive Tim Cook, who took over from Steve Jobs in 2011, Apple has taken new steps to improve its record and boost transparency, including the extensive audits of its sprawling supply chain. Last year, it agreed to separate audits by the independent Fair Labor Association.
In an interview on Thursday, Apple senior vice president of operations Jeff Williams said the company has increased its efforts to solve two of the most challenging issues - ensuring there are no under aged workers in its supply chain and limiting working hours to 60 hours a week.
While child labor reflected a small percentage of the workforce, Apple is now investigating its smaller suppliers - which typically supply parts to larger suppliers and hence face less oversight on such issues - to bring them into compliance, sometimes even firing them.
"We go deep in the supply chain to find it," Williams said. "And when we do find it, we ensure that the underage workers are taken care of, the suppliers are dealt with."
In one case, Apple said it terminated its relationship with a component maker Guangdong Real Faith Pingzhou Electronics Co Ltd after discovering 74 cases of underage workers.
Officials at Pingzhou Electronics could not be reached despite three telephone calls from Reuters.
Apple also discovered an employment agency that was forging documents to allow children to illegally work at the supplier.
Apple reported both the supplier and the employment agency to local authorities, the company said in its latest annual report on the conditions in its supply chain.
Apple has audited both small and ancillary suppliers, as well as large ones such as Korea's Samsung Electronics Co, (005930.KS) for working conditions. It found 95 percent of sites audited complied with avoiding underage labor.
Child labor is an issue that is part of the larger supply industry as the component maker that Apple found violated child labor laws supplied parts to more than a hundred different companies, including automotive companies, Williams said, vowing to eradicate under aged labor from the industry.
"I don't know how long it will take to get there but that's our goal," said Williams, who has spent a significant amount of his 14 years at Apple in Asia managing the supply chain.
For 2013, Williams said a key focus for Apple will be student interns and ensuring that suppliers do not abuse the internship system, especially in China where many colleges require students to complete internships as part of their curriculum.
Some companies in China are solving labor shortages by employing students. Last September, city officials of the northeastern Chinese coastal city of Yantai ordered vocational high schools to send students to a large plant run by Foxconn - a key contract manufacture for Apple and other large electronics companies like Hewlett Packard (HPQ.N) - to overcome a shortage of workers.
Another focus areas has been "bonded labor", where agencies who help immigrant workers find jobs take a substantial portion of the worker's pay.
Apple said in the report that it asked suppliers to reimburse $6.4 million in excess foreign contract worker fees in 2012, according to the report.
The company said it achieved 92 percent compliance with a maximum 60-hour work week in its supply chain. Where violations were discovered, Apple took action, it said in its report.
Apple also found and stopped discriminatory practices against women workers in 34 supplier facilities that required pregnancy testing and 25 facilities that tested employees for certain medical conditions, the report said. (Additional reporting by Shanghai newsroom; Editing by Richard Pullin)

Upset probabilities in the NFC West
October, 17, 2009
By Mike Sando | ESPN.com
Week 5 produced a few surprises relative to Brian Burke's model predicting NFL outcomes.
The model posted a 9-5 record, down from 12-1 in Week 4 (not counting a 50-50 game).
The chart shows how Burke's model sees win probabilities in Week 6. I encourage you to check out his analysis on the Fifth Down Blog. He doesn't take things too seriously, but the model is based on serious research.
For Week 6, Burke's model sees a Steelers' victory over the Browns as the most likely outcome of the week, followed by Eagles over Raiders and Jaguars over Rams. The Cardinals-Seahawks game appears much tougher to call, with Seattle enjoying a slight edge.
More predictions: Leave your own in the most recent You Called It item. The Sunday Countdown crew is split on Cardinals-Seahawks.

Boy George and rapper Wale to sing live in Royal Ballet's upcoming premiere
Alison Mosshart, Jonny Pierce, Hero Fisher, Andrew Wyatt, Wale and Black Cobain in Wayne McGregor's creation
Boy George will be in a live line-up of singer-performers for the latest Royal Ballet premiere by Wayne McGregor. Mark Ronson's cycle of nine love songs, orchestrated by Rufus Wainwright, will be performed by the former Culture Club New-Romantic (he's now 50), alongside Alison Mosshart of The Kills, Jonny Pierce of The Drums, Hero Fisher, Andrew Wyatt of Miike Snow, and rappers Wale and his protégé Black Cobain during the six-performance run next month.
The singers will apparently be onstage with the dancers in the work, called Carbon Life, and designs by Gareth Pugh, whose flamboyant club styles are worn by Lady Gaga, Beyoncé and Kylie Minogue, and admired by Vogue editor Anna Wintour. Reflecting the opera house's desperate wish to democratise its expensive, exclusive image, ticket prices start at a mere £3, rising to £42,
Carbon Life is one of two premieres on the bill, the other being by the neo-classicist Liam Scarlett, whose yet untitled ballet is designed by the superb John Macfarlane and has music by Rachmaninov. Neither premiere has casting yet revealed.
Christopher Wheeldon's masterly Polyphonia, set magnetically to Gyorgy Ligeti piano music, completes the bill (and sets the bar very high indeed).
The programme could be a teaser of what to expect in the future from the Royal Ballet. Wheeldon and McGregor are to be the two creative associates in the Royal Ballet's new directorship headed by Kevin O'Hare when he takes over from Dame Monica Mason this autumn.
- The Royal Ballet's McGregor/Scarlett/Wheeldon triple bill is performed on 5, 10, 12, 14, 18 and 23 April at the Royal Opera House, London

Landmark and the Price of a Badly Defined Beta July 28, 2014Posted by Wilhelm Arcturus in entertainment, EverQuest Next.
Tags: Because SOE, Landmark
There has been an argument over what "beta" means when it comes to software for as long as I have been part of the industry, which is pushing on 25 years now.
The baseline definition for me has always been that your software is feature complete and you feel it is ready to ship, but now you are going to take some time to get people outside the development group to look at things. This can be surprisingly important and an eye opening experience, as when you have worked with a piece of software for months at a stretch, your brain becomes adjusted to the way it works. You stop seeing the flaws and you become invested in the project vision.
And then you hand it to some fresh eyes who will, often almost immediately, tell if what you have been slaving over makes a lick of sense. It can be a sobering moment when somebody, after five minutes with your product, makes a suggestion for a fundamental change that, upon reflection, seems obvious. Plus they tend to catch all those quirks that the team has simply learned to work around to the point of developing a blind spot, those bugs that "everybody" knows about yet somehow never quite made it to the bug tracking database.
That is the idea in my book. I have fought for that ideal now and then. But I have been through the wringer enough times to know that fight can be futile. So I have been through internal betas (where we learn how little the rest of the company cares) schedule betas (the schedule says we're beta as of today so we are) political betas (we're going beta today because if we don't, somebody in senior management will look bad) survival betas (we're going beta because if we don't they'll cancel the project and lay us all off) and the occasional investor beta (I gave your company money so install your product on my son's laptop… and put more RAM in there as well… I don't care, strip your lab machines if you have to).
But in all of that there is still a certain level feature availability before we hand the software over to fresh eyes, if for no other reason that a fresh perspective is a perishable commodity and you don't want to waste it on things you should have caught yourself. Once people have been in your beta a bit they will become fixated on things that are important to them and tend to not notice anything else. Long betas introduce beta fatigue, as I am going to guess SOE is finding out with Landmark.
Landmark was in alpha for a stretch and then went into "closed beta" a few months back, which meant "paid beta" so far as I could tell. I was invited in for a couple of seven day runs at the product and, as the joke goes, there wasn't much "there" there. I suspect that SOE is feeling interest wain as the software goes on and on with small but important changes but no real end in sight. So while they
fleeced convinced some people to pay money to get into the software early, I am going to guess that even the most hard core fan has some limit and really need more people online and active to test.
Which is why I suspect we got this sale today over at Steam.
Yes, Landmark has been marked down to Steam Summer Sale levels of discount. That is the basic Settler Pack, but the other tiers are available too, including upgrades if you are already invested.
I was a tad miffed that people were getting Planetary Annihilation for three bucks less than my Kickstarter pledge back during the Steam Summer Sale. How would I feel if I was in for a hundred for the top tier Trailblazer Pack and then, still during closed beta, they offered up the same deal for $33.99? I wonder if any of those early adopters will pipe up?
And given the caveats, I am not sure that $33.99 is a good deal from where I sit. The warning on Steam as part of their Early Access disclaimer:
ATTENTION: Landmark is in Closed Beta. That means we are still adding core feature sets and that updates are happening weekly. Everything in the game is currently subject to change, which includes the possibility of wipes.
Please make sure to read the Landmark Blueprint, which provides a list of planned feature updates and timing estimates.
We are using an Open Development process to create this game, which means that you are encouraged to interact directly with the development team via the Steam Community, Twitter, Reddit, Twitch and our Forums. If you are interested in helping to create a game from the ground up, Landmark offers that opportunity.
For more information on the Landmark development process, click here.
The Landmark blueprint forum thread shows a list of features and says that they will be unveiling some new things at SOE Live in a couple of weeks. But there is a long list of features, including almost everything that might turn Landmark into a game as opposed to a wanna-be Minecraft prototype, waiting to be implemented. (But they got the Station Cash store running muy pronto!) There is certainly no obvious "okay, it is worth my time" point on their blueprint as yet.
While I am sure that for the devs actually working on the project, these changes are coming as fast as they can manage them, from the outside the pace can feel very different. If you've been playing around with Landmark for six months or more at this point there is probably a good chance that your interest has faded somewhat, or that your focus has narrowed to a few things. There certainly haven't been a lot of blog posts about Landmark lately, and bloggers as a group tend to be more enthusiastic about their games than the average play. SOE has gotten a mention here and there due to handing out seven day passes, but people who were on fire early on have been pretty quiet these days.
So, while I am not ready to claim that Landmark is DOA, it could be easily inferred that SOE needs some more people actually coming in to play, to start from scratch, to get involved, and to be enthusiastic about the game. And for just under seven bucks I am slightly tempted. But there still doesn't seem to be enough there yet, and the game is going to be free to play eventually anyway. So I will probably pass.
SOE has a chance to revive interest at SOE Live, though that can be a double edged sword as well. They got a lot of people interested in EverQuest Next at the last SOE Live but haven't said much about it since, and SOE has something of a history of sporadically building up enthusiasm with their customer base only to go silent for long stretches.

Not just a beta, but a beta for a f2p game. I have no idea what a dollar is supposed to get you in a free game, and no one else really does either. It makes the whole situation that much more convoluted.
Were your "trailblazer flag, mastercraft bracer, noble's regalia, and tech commander gear (etc)" really worth $100? I don't think I would take anyone's complaint about this sale seriously unless they first admitted that they made a terrible purchase decision (sorry Keen).
- 2. guest - July 28, 2014
"How would I feel if I was in for a hundred for the top tier Trailblazer Pack and then, still during closed beta, they offered up the same deal for $33.99?"
Put it in a subscription perspective, which I know you are no stranger to: (100 – 33)/6 = 11,11
That's about how much per month these people have paid for the privilege of early access (… to a highly unfinished game, but that's beside the point), so not all that far from the price of all-access, for whichever benefit that will provide in Landmark.
- 4. Alicia Aishai - July 28, 2014
The idea of paying for the beta of a F2P was a non starter for me. I got a 7-day beta code from Gamespot a few weeks ago and gave it a shot, which validated my view that I was wise not to pay for this.
I played a game which doesn't seem to know which direction it wants to take and everything seems half done. Farming is so-so, exploration is pointless most of the time, building requires a ton of farming and is ok but clearly could be better. I am not sure what adding combat or those huge caves are going to do for the game. Just make the farming part more tedious?
SOE seems months away to ship a final product. I will give it another shot when the game is finished … and free. I remember a time where people had free access to unfinished games and had to pay for playing the finished games…

You are a good man, Bhagpuss. Enjoying what you have instead of coveting that of others. A great example for all.
- 8. Gripper - July 28, 2014
To throw my $0.02 in – I did buy the $100 deal, and have a "little" bit of a heartache that suddenly my expenditure of $100 is no worth about $40 bucks.
But I will say a bit just to clarify why I did this – to this day I regret my decision to not get the collectors edition of WOW – the first one and missed my chance with the little diablo pet. Seems silly I know but I really miss that and have every collectors edition since then.
So when I saw the chance to purchase this – I thought – I like EQ2 – and since this seems to be the EQ Next "jump" I wanted to make sure I was in on the ground floor.
I have done the same thing with Wildstar, MWO, Star Citizen etc.
The thing that surprises me is that Landmark was not what I thought it was when they announced it etc – I thought I was getting the jump for EQNext – but instead landed in a Minecraft type of game, which does not interest me much.
So I chalk it up to throw on the pile of things I should have known better to do, but I dont really have any real emotions except to think to be honest is that SOE is hurting and the whole Landmark experiment (it has to be right? Where is EQNext?) is not doing well as a whole.
Right now I am sticking with the WOW and thats about it – even gave up my Eve online for now – Eve takes to much "organized" time to juggle family and gaming time right now.
- 10. Toldain - July 31, 2014
It's my sense that one of the goals of Landmark was to create a stable of artists conversant with the build tools of Landmark who would create content for sale in Everquest Next. At my last look, that seems to be successful.
The one contest I participated in had lots of entries that blew my attempt out of the water (except for the giant toilet, which did not really impress me.)
For my $100 bucks, I got to bring in some old friends and fool around a fair bit. Probably not the best value as far as a game goes, but like Gripper says, it's kind of like getting a collectors pack.

Liquid Image Makes New Off-Road Camera-Goggles
If you're into diving you've probably heard of Liquid Image. Thier line-up of underwater goggles comes equipped with video cameras for every model.
Having gotten sick of all that wet stuff, Liquid Image now wants a piece of the action happening on land, and they're releasing a new set of goggles for practicioners of off-road adventures of all kinds.
Coming in black and red colors, the goggles are part of the Impact series and offer a 136 degree field of view. The camera is placed above the nose area, and records 1080p video at 30fps, or 60fps for slow-motion when you take the resolution down to 720p.
It's not quite clear to me how you make it shoot stills, probably with a remote button, but they clock in at 12MP, and the camera goggles come with a 4GB microSD card for storing video and photos, with its slot being able to accomodate card up to 32GB.
Right now, no price or launch date.

Somewhere on the Italian coast lies the island of Regalo, a prosperous trade port with a classical look. Naturally, the port island-city attracts ruffians from across Italy and beyond, and the only people the citizens of Regalo can rely on are the members of "Arcana Famiglia", a vigilante organization whose members are gifted with psychic powers gained through a secret ritual. Sharp-dressed, gentlemanly, and, above all, dangerous, these young men are also popular for their strict code of using nonlethal force in combat.Into the island-city comes Felicita, the sixteen-year-old daughter of Mondo, leader of Arcana Famiglia. Once she came of age, Mondo invited her into the island to assume leadership of "Serie di Spada", the group's arbitration section. She also hears that she was getting married in two months, and a tournament will be held between the young men of Arcana Famiglia who wanted her hand in marriage.Not one to simply let fate take its course, Felicita herself joins in the tournament, wanting to prove that she can decide her destiny, as well a competent Action Girl in her own right. And along the way she interacts with other handsome but eccentric members of the family.La Storia della Arcana Famiglia is an Otome Game by HuneX and Comfort Soft, released for the PlayStation Portable on October 27, 2011. It also received a fandisc, Arcana Famiglia -Vascello Phantasma no Majutsushi-; a cooking Gaiden Game, Arcana Famiglia -Festa Regalo!-; and a sequel is on the works. JC Staff adapted it into an anime as part of the Summer 2012 Anime roster, as well as an extra OVA. There is also a manga adaptation, titled Arcana Famiglia: Amore Mangiare Cantare!.

Rangers to announce SS Andrus' new contract
Elvis Andrus is set to stay with the Texas Rangers for as long as another decade.
The Associated Press
Elvis Andrus is set to stay with the Texas Rangers for as long as another decade.
The Rangers called a news conference Thursday afternoon to announce the new contract that the two-time All-Star shortstop agreed to earlier this week.
Andrus is guaranteed $120 million over an additional eight seasons through 2022 with the Rangers. The deal includes a vesting option for 2023.
With the two years left on his current deal at more than $11.2 million, Andrus would earn more than $131 million over 10 seasons.
The 24-year-old Andrus is already in his fifth major league season. He was part of the only two World Series appearances in Rangers history.
Andrus gets a $2 million signing bonus with the new deal that includes the opportunity for him to opt out and become a free agent after the 2018 season, soon after he turns 30 years old. He could also exercise that option after 2019 if still with the Rangers then.
Texas now has both of its All-Star middle infielders under contract through at least 2017.
Second baseman Ian Kinsler, a three-time All-Star, is signed through 2017 with a club option for 2018.
The Rangers acquired Andrus from Atlanta in the July 2007 trade for that sent Mark Teixeira to the Braves. Texas also got in that deal left-hander Matt Harrison, an 18-game winner and All-Star last year who started the season opener Sunday, and hard-throwing Neftali Feliz.
Andrus hit a career-best .286 in 158 games last season. After his 25 errors in 2011 that were the second-highest total for a shortstop, Andrus had only 16 last season while playing 10 more games in the field.

A novel silicon-based inductor, power inductor in silicon (PIiS) has been proposed and experimentally demonstrated. The PIiS is fabricated at wafer level using a silicon-molding micromachining technique in which 200-μm-thick copper windings are embedded into a silicon substrate and both sides of the substrate are capped with a polymer-magnetic power composite. Through-silicon vias (TSVs) and copper routings are also added so that a PIiS can be directly used as a surface-mountable packaging substrate. A 3 ×3 ×0.6 mm3 PIiS with a measured inductance of 390 nH has been fabricated. The Q factor of this PIiS is 10 at 6 MHz. An ultracompact buck converter has been made by surface mounting off-shelf power ICs and capacitors on a PIiS. The buck converter is 3 ×3 ×1.2 mm3, which has successfully delivered 500 mA at 1.8 V with an 80% efficiency at 6 MHz.

A Successful Season!
Love Your Block is wrapping up a successful season. This fall, 12 amazing projects were completed across the City of Pittsburgh, transforming vacant blighted lots into beautiful gardens, playgrounds and a garden resource center to name a few. Congratulations to all community groups and volunteers! Thank you for all your hard work! Check out the transformations in our photo gallery!
An Amazing Transformation!
Northside Coalition for Fair Housing, KaBOOM!, The Alcoa Foundation and servePGH came together to turn a vacant lot in California-Kirkbride into a playground in just 2 days! Over 250 volunteers contributed over 2000 service hours to build the unique playground designed by local youth. Check out the dramatic makeover photos here.
Building Partnerships, Strengthening Communities
"The City departments are accessible and quick to respond to questions adn concerns. Love Your Block is a great program." - Rachel Romano, Beechview Community Garden
"They [Department of Public Works] were awesome, concerned, and dedicated to helping Troy Hill beautify the public park." - Nancy Noszka, Troy Hill Citizens
Creating Community Involvement!
"We were able to create a new green space that is family friendly in the South Side and revitalize a corner of Armstrong Park that is very neglected. Everyone was super excited and energized to be there [and the best part of the Love Your Block event was] seeing the neighbors in the adjacent area coming out and asking what we were doing and thanking us for the hard work."
- Jenn Holliman, South Side Community Council
Bringing Communities Together!
"[The best part of the Love Your Block Event was] the numbers of volunteers who cared enough to come out and create a difference in our neighborhood. The sweat, laughter, hard work and getting dirty together was priceless."

Mother Nature has not been kind to farmers in our state this summer, especially those in Rocky Ford who rely on their melon harvest.
With our late spring freeze and torrential rain and hail this week... close to 100 acres of crops have been destroyed.
Melons for miles...
"So sweet, so juicy, and it smells good too," Shirley Benz, a La Junta resident said.
Rocky Ford is a town known for their sweet cantaloupes.
"It's just quite a treat for the summer," Benz said.
Sold in stores across the state and right here at the Knapp Farm.
But this year... they've lost almost 10% of the melons.
"Saturday night, we had a severe hail storm and so these cantaloupes will not be going to the grocery stores, they're ruined with hail holes," Gail Knapp, owner of Knapp Farm said.
34 acres that would have been ready to harvest in a matter of days... destroyed.
"We're looking at about 18,000 to 20,000 boxes of cantaloupes that won't be harvested and sent to the stores," Knapp said.
At $20 per box, that's about $360,000 lost from one hail storm.
"It's pretty, pretty devastating. But we don't want that... I don't want this to keep people from buying cantaloupe," she said.
"Hopefully they can rebuild and get a lot of sales from what they do have and be back next year and hopefully the weather will be better next year," Allen Barton, an Aurora resident said.
Despite the damage... nearly a hundred acres of cantaloupe are ready for harvest.
"We're moving on and we're looking forward and we're gonna harvest the rest of our crop and provide some really good quality vegetables for everybody," Knapp said.
Knapp's Farm Market in Rocky Ford is open everyday from 8am to 7pm.

Ajíaco Bogotano Recipe
04 Feb 14
This comforting Colombian soup recipe comes to us from Carlos Ordoñez, member of the Slow Food Bogotá Convivium. Carlos scoured the country in search of traditional recipes, collecting 2,700 in just one year. This soup is the perfect example of the symbiosis between the indigenous, peasant and Spanish cultures in the country, whose influences intercept to create a delicious result that has become a national favorite.
Ajíaco Bogotano celebrates the biodiversity of potatoes using three Colombian varieties. We have suggested alternatives if these are not available. This recipe is part of Recetario latinoamericano de los cocineros de la red de Terra Madre - a collection of traditional dishes from across Latin America, published by Slow Food (in Spanish).
Serves 4
1 large scallion, whole
6 tbsp / 25g fresh coriander, chopped
750g skinless chicken breasts, with bone
Salt and pepper to taste
250g Papa Criolla (Solanum phureja), or another creamy yellow potato such as small Yukon Golds or Yellow Fingerling, peeled and cut into cubes
500g Papa Pastusa (Solanum tuberosum), or another large white potato such as Russet, peeled and cut into cubes
375g Papa Sabanera (Solanum tuberosum), or another small purple potato, peeled and cut into cubes
2 medium ears fresh corn, cut into 3 pieces
2 garlic cloves, peeled and crushed
¾ cup / 50g guascas* leaves
¾ cup / 180ml heavy cream
¾ cup / 120g capers, rinsed
2 avocados, peeled and sliced
Tie the stems of scallion and coriander with cotton thread and place them in a large pot along with 2L water, the chicken breasts, salt and pepper. Bring to the boil and cook over a medium heat for 25 minutes until the chicken is cooked and tender. Remove chicken and set aside. Remove the scallion and coriander. Add the potatoes, corn and garlic.
Meanwhile, once the chicken is cool, shred by hand and place at the bottom of serving bowls.
Simmer the soup until the potatoes begin to fall apart and the soup thickens and the corn is tender. Add the guascas and cook for further 5-10 minutes.
Prepare separate serving plates for the capers, cream and avocado in the middle of the table so your guests can garnish their soups. Ladel on top of shredded chicken and enjoy!
*Guascas is a common herb in Colombia and can be found in some Latin supermarkets. It is also known as Mielcilla (Costa Rica), Galinsoga (NZ), gallant soldier (USA), and Potato weed. If not available, replace with 2 bay leaves and 2 tbsp chopped parsley.

Resolved Question:
My dog cries consistantly after eating. Her stomach makes a lot of noises after as well. On occasion, if she eats after 5pm she will salivate perfusely and lick either her arms and legs, the bedcovers or the floors carpet. I purchase holistic foods. She was eating Avoderm's lite foods and recently I purchase Natural Choice's sensitive stomach dog food. I am afraid to feed her anymore because she now cries all day long.

Has she always cried or has this only started recently?
How old is she?
Did she cry on the old food?
How often is she fed?
Does she ever vomit up a yellowish fluid?
Does she have any skin issues?
Has she ever been on antibiotics?
Does she have diarrhea or constipation on a regular basis?

replied 5 years ago.
I would say she has been more verbal the last month, it has only been a few days since she was switched to a sensitve for stomach dog food. She has one large tumor behind her one leg in front and a few smaller ones near her ribs. I switched to a natural dog food back in March of this year. She has never vomited anything because it goes into her mouth and she swallows it back up like an acid reflux. She does not have any skin issues, her skin is nice and I brush her coat at least every couple of days because she is in the house. She does take Rimadyl but on a need only basis. I was assuming that the whining was because she has hip displaysia and it causes her pain to be overweight (about 80 lbs). I have not noted any diarrhea or constipation but I know she is not normal when it comes to wanting to go to the bathroom. I have to take her and stand there for her to pee otherwise she will hold it. I have no way to know if she has a bladder infection because I am not sure how much water she is suppose to drink and if she drinks that much. I know she is seperated from her other long time companion, Rusty, our German Shorthair because of the newest dog. I am not sure if most of this is a nerousis and she is having mental problems. She will stare at me and cry and if I look back at her she stops crying, but if I turn my head she cries more. This whole behavior is strange. I know she must be hurting as well because I can hear her whine when I take her outside and she is by herself. She is not totally alone, we have two cats that hang out with her. I am not sure if she has eaten any of their poop but I would not put it past her.
Jane Lefler

Inspired works,
Thanks for all the additional information. It is helpful. The licking of everything is a sign of nausea and since she is also crying after eating, I would have to assume she has a stomach upset and pain. This could be caused by a food allergy, parasites, protozoan infections, and even a grown in the stomach. Dogs are also quick to continue activity that leads to attention from their owners.
You can try putting her on a very bland diet of boiled chicken and rice for a few days. You might want to start feeding smaller meals more often which may help as well. I would definitely add a few spoonfuls of yogurt onto her food to add good bacteria to her stomach to help stop nausea. You should also have a stool sample examined by your vet for parasites and protozoan infections such as coccidia and giardia. You can read about these here:
You might also try some pepcid or Zantac. Read about Pepcid dosages and usage information here:
Zantac can be given to a dog at .25 to 1mg per pound every 8-12 hours. Read about usage here:
It should be given at least 30 minutes before feeding. I'm sure that anxiety and stress have contributed to her condition. You have been through a very trying ordeal and your dog has picked up on this and become anxious. Her dealing with another dog is also putting more stress on her as well. When you worry, she worries which just causes more upset and potential stomach issues.
If at all possible, you should try and be as relaxed as possible around her and try to not react every time she cries especially if you feel it may be strictly a bid for attention. If none of my suggestions seems to have an affect, you will need to have the vet take a look at her. He may want to use a scope and check out the stomach, but will definitely want to run bloodwork.
I hope this information is helpful to you.
