Anal Cancer, HIV and Gay/Bisexual MenIn the general population, anal cancer is a rare disease. Few people knew about it before Farrah Fawcett made public her struggle with the illness. Among men who have sex with men (MSM), and especially HIV-positive MSM, the incidence of anal cancer is significantly more prevalent and increasing annually. 1 However, the majority of gay and bisexual men know little about the disease, have never been tested for it, nor know that screening tests...

Obama's "death tax" is a tad excessive, don't you think?
The loss of a family member or loved one always takes an emotional toll on people, but it also takes a financial one as well. The average funeral today costs over $7,000 and most of the time the next-of-kin are forced to foot the bill due to hard economic times. But what about those who are in good economic and financial standing at the time of their deaths?The current "death tax" (IRS Inheritance tax) stands at 35% and Congress enacted a $5,120,000 exemption for both gift and estate taxes. But of course, that's now all going to change. The Obama Administration now plans to only allow for a $1 million dollar exemption and an above tax rate of 55%. My question is, how is this fair? Say your family owns a ranch or farm and it's been in the family for hundreds of years. Now they will no longer be able to afford to keep it in lieu of these new taxes and allowance laws. Why does Obama not want anyone in America to be successful anymore? Must we all go to the government for all levels of sustainability? It is almost as if we are being punished for being responsible and successful.So I ask the GaG community your thoughts on this. Why should people now need to bear a financial brunt of a death on top of an emotional one? Also, why close a window to help a family member or loved one out financially as well? This makes no sense. Big government, high taxes and socialism are never a good solution to anything.

The Fuhrer despises successful people and freedom.He despises successful people because all lefties despise successful people. They for some reason think they are entitled to that money without working for it, that people who work hard somehow have an obligation to share their rewards. This is the logic of the left, instead of letting people do their thing and earn their lifetsyle they want to lower 90% of the populations quality of life by having these successful people pay for everybody's everything. The only people who would benefit from this are the laziest and least motivated of the population, the bottom 10%. This is all in the idea of "the greater good" of course, even though it lowers what "good" is considered to be.He hates freedom because he wants nobody to be able to do anything without the approval of the government. For whatever reason he seems to think that only the government is capable of knowing how things will work or should work and that of course, they know the best way. Once again this is the logic of the left, everybody (except the government) is a blabbering idiot not capable of taking care of themselves or doing anything right on their own.This can be undone after the Fuhrer is out of office, considering we actually replace him with someone who is American in spirit. My faith in this happening is low.
What Girls Said 1
it definitely destroys the small family farm but I thought he was for the small business...oh wait. I don't think there should be any inheritance tax since people have already paid taxes on their money/assets at least once so why should they have to pay again when they die.
What small family farms? Remember Farm-Aid, which has been going for 30 years? Big business capitalism killed the small family farm.
farm land is assessed at a value that is usually higher than it is worth. my dads family used to have a small farm as in 100 hogs or less and they leased some land and owned some land for crops. when my grandpa died they couldn't pass the farm on to my dad or uncle because of the taxes if you really are from Indiana you should know about small family farms. and there are some moderate sized farms but even 1000 hogs really isn't that big of a farm.
What Guys Said 6
i don't think this discourages people from being successful, it does however help destable the ruling class who are born there and stay there which I am not apposed to
What are you going to do when your critically acclaimed and nobel peace winning novels get published and you get a crap load of royalties from it. Who are you going to leave that to? It's going to get taxed out the ass. And it's Opposed, not apposed.
what will I do, nothing and thanks for that spell check is crap
The tax only effect people who do not plan correctly.What the tax say is simple, if you are dumb then pay Sam. If a man has 5 million dollar it should not be sitting naked it should be protected. I know if a loved one of mine died with 10 million all 10 million would not be subject to inheritance taxes.That tax change does one thing. When a fool with too much money dies instead of it going to the family for a fight, with as much as 90% going to the attorneys in fees for the fights they create. The money now goes to uncle Sam. Rather than have legal fight over it Government will take the money since fools are involved.5 million should never be exposed to inheritance and should always be held in a trust.It is easy to criticise the President when you don't care enough to educate yourself.
Educate myself? I have more letters after my name then you will ever have. Please don't insult my intelligence at the sake of your annointed one.
The term death tax dates to the 1940's. It's not a new idea, and Obama certainly dream it up. The numbers change of course, but let's be clear, this is nothing new. How is it fair? How many people even have a million dollar estate? A million bucks is a ton of money, and properly taken care and invested would last most people the rest of their lives with enough extra to pass to their heirs. So what if a $2 million estate only passes on $1.45M, that's plenty considering the fact that the country's broke and needs revenue in order to provide services to everyone. Plus there's still all sorts of accounting tricks to work around it, such as giving large but tax exempt gifts each year prior to death. I just don't think it will actually cause anyone any meaningful harm.
Also, I don't understand why they couldn't afford their generations old ranch or farm when that kind of money is being bequeathed... wouldn't the land be paid for by now if it's that old?

As I said, the "idiots" don't have to be right to be in charge. Gee wiz, I guess we should still a colony then shipping our money off to a sovereign crown... Oh wait, that's what we do to china in the name of capitalism. We're exactly where we started.
I am not in favor of being at the mercy of the government for everything and being dependent on them.
You haven't understood yet ? It started under Reagan.ALL THE MONEY MUST GO TO THE BANKS.That's about it. It's not socialism. It's ultracapitalism.
No actually. Reagan wasn't a Socialist/quasi-Communist like our current leader. He wants us all to ask the government for everything and also feels we are too stupid to manage our own money, among other things.


text: Mississippi Political Elites Can't Believe Voters Turning Against 'King of Pork' Cochran Print article Send a Tip by Charlie Spiering 18 Jun 2014 post a comment The New York Times has an interesting piece this morning on the runoff election between Sen. Thad Cochran and his Republican primary challenger, Chris McDaniel. The piece reflects a general amazement at the way that citizens of Mississippi are voting for McDaniel in spite of all the federal spending that Cochran has brought to the district. One liberal professor in particular is perplexed by the concept. "It's the strangest thing I've ever seen," Professor Marty Wiseman tells the Times. "It defies logic or reason for somebody to not only run on cutting off the supply of federal money to Mississippi, but to actually be winning the race." Mississippi residents quoted in the story share a common theme: Washington, D.C. stinks and Cochran is part of the problem.

Tickets are sold out for tonight's annual Corporate Boxing Challenge, which is lucky for you, as it's not really the sort of thing you'd actually want to pay to watch (but failing to do so, given that it's for charity, would make you look like a dick), especially given that a certain Golden Gloves contender who-never-was won't be able to make it like usual. So now you can sneak in, guilt free, and watch people like this guy get in the ring.

Attention Investors: Having Our Asses Handed To Us Is No Big Deal, Says Hedge Fund ManagerBy Bess Levin
How are managing money and martial arts kind of the same thing? They both have the potential to kick the shit out of you but as long as you don't fall over and die (or bleed enough money out of your ass that you're forced to close up shop) it is all good. Lose nearly 70 percent? No problemo.
Benoit "La Tornade" Descourtieux, the second-oldest contender in Hong Kong's third annual Hedge Fund Fight Night for charity, finds it easy to draw a link between managing money and martial arts.
"As long as we do well most of the time, or even if we don't do well but survive, we'll be OK," said the 46-year-old, Michael Douglas-lookalike in an interview at his 27th-floor office with a view of workers unloading cargo ships at Victoria Harbour. Descourtieux manages the Calypso Asia Fund, which bets on rising and falling stock prices and their derivatives.
Anyway, most of you don't need to be told what you already know (everyone's a professional here) but in case you're interested in seeing the metaphor in action, are in the neighb (Hong Kong), and would like to drop a few G's (for a good cause!), La Tornade will be sparring Thursday night. Bonus: there'll be a guy named John "Headcount Reduction" Crane and a male model in the ring. (For those who can't make it, there's an Ultimate Cage Fighting event taking place in Southern Connecticut next month, with some big name participation.)

RIO DE JANEIRO (AP) - Brazilian police say gunmen killed one the financial director of a newspaper known for its denunciations of corruption and organized crime groups.
Jose Roberto Ornelas de Lemos of the "Hora H" newspaper was shot 44 times by four hooded gunmen in a bakery shop in the town of Nova Iguacu near Rio de Janeiro. The killing took place on Tuesday.
Marco Aurelio of the Rio de Janeiro Journalists Union said Thursday that the newspaper is known for its combative stance against corrupt politicians and policemen, "but I don't know if that is why they killed him."
Police inspector Marcos Henrique de Oliveira Alves told the Estado de S. Paulo newspaper that police suspect Lemos was killed because of the newspaper's work.

Scene: New York
Scene 4: Stonewall Democrats of New York City Women's Awards
Henrietta Hudson, Sept. 25
"The postmodernist would look at the ceiling here and call it the floor for the people above," said Kate Bornstein in the renowned West Village bar, Henrietta Hudson. The transgender author, playwright and performance artist was not drunk. No matter what the inflatable beer mug and pretzel hanging in the front room suggested, this was a dignified public occasion.
Bornstein addressed the crowd as part of her acceptance speech during the 2nd Annual Women's Awards presented by the Stonewall Democrats of New York City. The formidable group advocates for legislation that promotes equality for the local LGBT community, and it supports openly LGBT candidates and allies for elected office.
Bornstein (left) and attorney Yetta Kurland
The LGBT community flexes considerable muscle in New York City government. Here, the Stonewall Rebellion helped birth the modern gay civil rights movement in 1969, and today, openly lesbian City Council Speaker Christine Quinn eyes a run for the mayor's office in 2009.
According to Bornstein, politicians should revolutionize their rhetoric to reach out to people under 25 who embrace pansexuality and identify as "queer," not LGBT. "The Democratic party needs to talk about sex," she continued, addressing an audience that included activists, elected officials such as out City Council member Rosie Mendez, and a staffer for Deborah Glick, the first — and still the only — out lesbian elected to the New York State Assembly.
Other honorees that evening were the Latina lesbian organization Las Buenas Amigas and Liz Abzug, a consultant whose mother, Bella, was the legendary women's movement leader. Stonewall Democrats Vice President Yetta Kurland organized the event. Right now, she is the attorney for Josie Smith-Malave, the former Top Chef contestant who allegedly was a victim of anti-gay violence on Long Island over the Labor Day weekend.
While Bornstein may have argued for different interpretations of the architecture, her speech left little doubt about the meaning of the obelisk-shaped awards that were presented to honorees. "I'll put this to good use," exclaimed the author upon touching the object.
Scene 5: The Sensuous Woman
Zipper Factory Theater, Sept. 26
Here's a tip to anyone seeking information about the New York lesbian scene: Don't ask Margaret Cho for advice. Those already in the know, however, might offer to show this uproarious performer around the town.
"I haven't been here for so long that I need to get back into it," admitted Cho when asked her thoughts about the city's offerings for women. The bisexual comedian happens to be in town through Oct. 20 for her new off-Broadway production, The Sensuous Woman.
Seated 90 minutes before the start of her first preview performance in a Hell's Kitchen theater, Cho confessed: "I don't know anywhere to go, and I don't know anything to do, and I've got to be sort of reintroduced. The last time I was here it was all about Meow Mix, and that was a long time ago."
Sure enough, that was the Lower East Side joint known for its Xena: Warrior Princess nights in the '90s. Then, the Notorious B.I.G. still lived and the Notorious C.H.O. had not yet hit DVD.
One decade later, Cho is here to star in The Sensuous Woman, a variety show of dancing, music and comedy inspired by burlesque. She said her acquaintance with the resurgent art form motivated her to deliver a production that displays all kinds of female body types.
"My eye is so unused to seeing real women's bodies, women who are not super thin, or with crazy giant breasts and like air-brushed to death, you know, or supermodels," Cho explained. "I'm not used to that, and so my eyes are in shock when I see something different."
Refreshing differences permeate this latest work, which includes appearances by many of Cho's associates based in Los Angeles. Transgender comedian Ian Harvie charms, and so does the versatile talent of Diana Yanez. The latter performed the rap song "My Puss" with Cho during the True Colors Tour last summer.
Now, Cho and Yanez have reprised their roles as wronged lesbian couple Maureen and Angela. Once again, the duo embraces superlative rhymes to insult the genitalia of a neighbor who had their RV towed.
Yo! Revenge still sounds hilarious.

Jan 19, 2014This movie does not deserve to be talked about, but I think something needs to be said about desensitization. I've watched a lot of comedies, romantic and not. Some I've liked, and some are not my style. My complaint about this movie goes beyond style. It was going along ok, until I saw her slice the guy's ear off. Was I supposed to laugh? Was i supposed to think it was moderately humorous? Was I supposed to ignore it and keep watching, waiting for more drop-kicks? Never have I seen a comedy where body parts were severed. To those of you who may think I am over-reacting, I would like to suggest that you examine your morals and why you think dismemberment is funny.
Frankly, I felt enraged and abused as I saw this and then switched the movie off and threw it out. Abused by a screenwriter who wishes to maintain our culture of violence. We have to lean, as individuals and as a society, to take a step back and learn how to say no. To re-claim and demand our dignity. If you think this was just a sight-gag, or the movie can be excused as a "black comedy", then I urge you to take a deeper look inside yourself and examine why the producers of this movie thought that such a gory scene would be accepted, or even enjoyed, by the mainstream public. What have you become?… Expand
A thoroughgoing mediocrity that musters up just enough low-down chuckles to remind you that you're not watching another Freddie Prinze Jr. yawner.
The movie doesn't understand that embarrassment comes in a sudden painful flush of realization; drag it out, and it's not embarrassment anymore, but public humiliation, which is a different condition, and not funny.

I had no friend quite like Ed. We also hated each other.
He was with me all the time. He knew all my secrets. When I was in high school, all I wanted was to be perfect. At 5:30 a.m. I would run six miles. Then, after school, I would study until 10 p.m., breaking only for dinner. I always had to get an A. He understood why I would wrap my hips and abdomen in duct tape to keep it all in, so that my tight pants would fit perfectly and no amount of fat could bubble over the top.
When we had meals together, he would reassure me that it was okay to eat only fruits and vegetables. He would agree when I would say, "I'm fat, I need to lose weight." He saw what I saw in the mirror.Read More →

Last week when my two young nieces were in town, we went to a local theater to watch Jorge R. Gutierrez's The Book of Life, an animated children's film that is part heavy-handed love story, part love letter to Día de de los Muertos, the holiday on which those who have died are celebrated, a ritual that goes back 3,000 years. On NPR, journalist Karen Castillo Farfán wrote that the practice was developed by the Aztecs, who believed one should not grieve the loss of a beloved ancestor who passed. Instead, "the Aztecs celebrated their lives and welcomed the return of their spirits to the land of the living once a year."
The Book of Life is one big visual representation of everything we have come to associate with the holiday: "dark" Mexican folk art, sugar skulls, papel picado in every color, and altars adorned with seven-day candles, orange marigolds, and pan dulce. The movie is bright and visually stunning, despite being about death—and the same could be said about Día de los Muertos.Read More →

"Frenemies": friends with fewer benefits. It's often an apt term to describe our working lives, where polite interactions mask fierce competition. But it applies to other domains as well: from the love-hate relationships of siblings and lovers, to the tangled web of international relations (take, for example, longtime allies Germany and the US, recently in a bitter spat over American espionage). Yet having a frenemy is not necessarily a bad thing. Musical rivalries produce great songs (see the hit musical Beautiful). One-time political opponents sometimes become the most formidable of allies (see Bush v. Gore veterans/gay-marriage crusaders David Boies and Ted Olson).Read More →

Yesterday, the world lost one of its great talents. Robin Williams was found dead in his home Monday from an apparent suicide. The sadness of his loss is matched only by the joy he brought the world over his life.
While early obituaries I've read have lauded his acting triumphs (i.e., Good Will Hunting, Dead Poet's Society), equally important to my childhood were Robin Williams' less acclaimed works, from Jumanji (50 percent on Rotten Tomatoes) to Hook (31 percent) to Flubber (23 percent). Few actors have achieved such generational impact, making his death all the more painful.Read More →

In her new book Words Will Break Cement: The Passion of Pussy Riot, she profiles Pussy Riot, a Russian feminist punk activist group whose members have become the international faces of anti-Putin protest.
In recent years the group has won a global following—including the likes of Madonna and Paul McCartney—for their offbeat acts of civil disobedience against the Russian government. One of their best-known protests—a controversial "punk prayer" performance in a Moscow cathedral in 2012—eventually landed three of its members in jail. Gessen, a Russian American journalist and herself a critic of Putin, follows the personal histories of these three members: Nadezhda Tolokonnikova (Nadya), Maria Alyokhina, and Yekaterina Stanislavovna Samutsevich (Kat). Most of the book was culled from Gessen's reporting from their trial and her correspondence with Nadya and Maria while they were in prison.Read More →

Diversity in literature is something I've been thinking about quite a bit lately. Last month I attended a workshop run by the Voices of Our Nation Arts Foundation (VONA), which sponsors programs for writers of color working in a variety of genres. I sat at the orientation looking around in disbelief at more than 150 writers crammed into a room at UC Berkeley, thinking, "Holy fuck, I had no idea there were so many of us."Read More →

Speaking at West Point on Wednesday, President Obama touted his administration's response to Russia's recent belligerence in Ukraine. "Our ability to shape world opinion helped isolate Russia right away," he said. The public outcry and the pressure exerted by international institutions, he added, have served as an effective "counterweight" to "Russian propaganda and Russian troops on the border and armed militias in ski masks." In spite of the crisis Ukraine has gone on to hold elections—"without us firing a shot."
Unfortunately, Obama is mistaken. The momentum is still on Russia's side. It has forcibly seized and annexed the strategically valuable peninsula of Crimea. It has succeeded in destabilizing eastern Ukraine through a proxy war—secretively supporting ethnic Russian rebellions against the Ukrainian government there. It is quite possible Ukraine will end up losing more of its territory.Read More →

May in Los Angeles is breathtaking. I know this because it's all people talk about when the city explodes in Technicolor and flowers rip open. Everything is lush and living, or so they say. I live in Los Angeles too, but I don't see it the same way. Not anymore. The sunshine is harsh. The colors unkind.
When I walk to the corner liquor store with my sunglasses on and hoodie pulled up, hoping to be left alone, neighbors still yell out, "It's a beautiful day, isn't it?" I smile politely, nod. Always polite.
I stood on this same street four years ago, a few days before Mother's Day. It was early in the morning, around 3 a.m., and I was on the phone with a steely 911 operator, wondering why she was being so cold to me. I realize now it was probably better that way, but in those moments I hated her. I remember saying, "This doesn't feel real. This feels like a movie. Is this real?" There was silence on the other end of the line.Read More →

UPDATE: As if David Beckham in leather wasn't enough, Belstaff have released a video of Becks zipping through the countryside with his band of Belstaff brothers. Beckham on a bike is the perfect lunchtime treat. Beckham as a brooding biker ... the windswept quiff... the mud flying behind him. What. A. Man.
Belstaff also released a documentary which follows five British bikers on a journey from the Goodwood Estate in West Sussex to the Belstaff flagship on New Bond Street. At the end of their journey they are joined by 50 bikers to drive down New Bond Street for the opening of the flagship during London Fashion Week. David rides a Super Vintage 93 Knuckle and is wearing Belstaff leathers (natch). David said of his adventure: 'What I love about riding is the freedom, you have a full-face helmet on.'
You might remember that back in London Fashion Week Bond Street was shut down for the night for Mr David Beckham and a bunch of bikers to open Belstaff's new store. We were there to chat to the leather-clad Becks (more on that later), but now we get to see more of Beckham in a biker as it has been announced that David is the face of the 2014 global advertising campaign.
That's not all as it has been announced that there will also be a special Beckham for Belstaff Collection. We have no details about the line so far, but we imagine he has been taking a few tips from the lovely VB. Back at the store opening he told us: 'I love being able to work with great brands with a lot of history and when they are British brands it's even better.'
The campaign, shot by Peter Lindbergh, shows David taking a break from a biking adventure in the English countryside (Buckinghamshire to be precise), lounging on the grass in his leathers. Phwoar, it's quite possible he looks hotter in a leather jacket than his pants.
Belstaff comments that the concept behind the campaign was a band of brothers travelling across the English countryside. We asked David if he would ever do a Ewan McGreggor and go on his own Belstaff biking trek and he said: 'Maybe! I've got four kids to get to school and pick up from school so if I ever find the time, yeah maybe.'
As for his connection with the brand David told us: 'I began wearing a lot of Belstaff a few years back when I started riding bikes. I actually found my first [Belstaff jacket] when I was shopping in a vintage store, funnily enough, about six or seven years ago and I still wear that when I'm riding.'

What's the "it" cuisine of 2011?
- s
- SouthToTheLeft Jan 18, 2011 10:36 PM
Hey everyone,
A post to muse about what the new "it" cuisine of 2011 will be. Will New American continue to dominate, or will we get some more exotic offerings? Fusion, or not? Will bacon remain as the ingredient of the moment, or will there be a shakeup there, too?
I predict we'll start seeing a lot of gourmet Middle Eastern restaurants. It's a wonderful food cuisine that is generally underrepresented on these shores.
Your thoughts?
See Devra First's take on this very topic today.
re: shaebones
Interesting predictions. When I lived in Vancouver, there were tons of izakaya places and they were enormously popular. I've seen a lot of them open up in SF .... was wondering when they'd start spreading!
re: shaebones
Her take seemed more focus on flavors/techniques. I "get it" with the Japanese and Mexican, but come on, Devra, raw bars? Haven't we been here before?
I live in Westchester NY and the Asian Fusion thing is all over, but most real foodies I know don't like those places. That being said, the fast food generation loves it. I also think Thai is becoming more popular in the Northeast. I hope Middle Eastern cuisines start jumping near me.
Bacon will always be the IT thing! Although I'm seeing a trend towards spicy food, even in non-traditional spicy cuisines. A lot more cherry peppers and jalapenos popping up in dishes.
Below Gordeaux mentioned Gourmet BBQ. While I think it is an oxymoron, when DB Bistro put short ribs on their burger, the stage was set.
re: jhopp217
I don't know ... I don't remember bacon covered EVERYTHING a few years ago. Maybe I had bacon-blinders on, though.
re: SouthToTheLeft
Well a few years ago I agree you didn't see people making bacon and hot dog turtles, but I'd argue bacon was being used in tons of dishes other than just breakfast. For years at BBQ's we'd have bacon cheese burgers, bacon in salad, bacon wrapped dates, shrimp, scallops. I've always ordered bacon on chicken cutlet sandwiches. and of course, BLT's have always been a mainstay. Crumbled bacon on baked potatoes have also always been popular. I think more than ever, Pork in general has come to the forefront. it's not just sill commercials stating it's "the other white meat."
I sure hope for Middle Eastern to become the new 'it' cuisine. I am really tired of Asian of any kind (the only restos opening up here).
re: globocity
Couldn't agree more globocity. And to keep the authentic in the cuisine and not Americanize! If I only had access to SD on a regular basis. CA diners really have it made.
Having been a fan of Ethiopian, Syrian and Lebanese food for ages I would be so happy to see this trend.
re: KayceeK
How much does it cost ?
re: dump123456789
http://news.nationalpost.com/2011/01/... Check this out..
re: KayceeK
I see the price for the (human) milk, but not for the cheese. Apparently, someone estimated that it would have to be at least $200 a pound if the women were paid a reasonable rate for their time.
re: dump123456789
While their babies drink what, Mountain Dew? These are people who sell their blood.
re: KaimukiMan
Donating is a good thing. Selling is, well, less than virtuous.
re: dump123456789
I see your $2/ounce and raise you:
re: Whinerdiner
Where is this? I wish we had more Indian here.
re: SouthToTheLeft
Come to Philly and its burbs--Indian places are everywhere.
re: Whinerdiner
I'm in the middle of SF, and can only think of four Indian places within a mile radius.
re: SouthToTheLeft
Thats because they're all in the south or east bay.
re: SouthToTheLeft
A mile's a pretty small radius, though. Expand it a little and you'll have plenty of choices. The Tandoorloin is the obvious example - they don't call it that for nothing. Gotta be a dozen places in a square that's maybe four blocks to a side.
Neapolitan-style pizza and authentic US BBQ seem to be popping up in these parts. And that's a good thing.
While I enjoy these threads wherein everyone tries their hand at prognastication, I can't help but think it might be more interesting if we noted where we are when doing so. It seems to me that the regionality of trends is often missed in these discussions.
For example, to me Vietnamese food, Pho especially, seems like a Clinton era holdover given it's explosion in 90s DC and Philly. Whereas, this past year saw a big push of Malaysian cuisine in NY and NJ. As noted by another, mediocre barbecue places are popping up in Central NJ now. However, we have a 30 plus year Indian food tradition.
re: SouthToTheLeft
This past fall, there was a Malaysian food truck giving out free samples in the City. It got pretty decent press at the time. Fatty Crab probably got the most coverage. Here's one reference with links to restaurants at the top.
re: SouthToTheLeft
Malaysian cuisine hasn't really taken off, but it has become a lot more visible and their cooking style is entering the popular consciousness. Several Malaysian food festivals and a highly marketed food truck did a lot to put Malaysian food in bloggers' sights, not to mention the traditional media. The valorization of Singapore and its similar cuisine certainly has added cachet to that part of SE Asia. Laut and Fatty Crab are the only places I know that are trendy, but I think you will certainly see laksa, char kway teow and chili crab showing up on more Asian-influenced menus.
re: JungMann
Here's to more roti canai as well.
Although the economy if not actually getting better, has at least stopped it's downward spiral, I think that 'high value food', although not necessarily cheap, will continue to increase in popularity. People are going to want to be treated when they go out as restaurant meals continue to be more of a special event than they were before the bubble burst, but people are going to want more value for the money they spend. I expect the same will be true for grocery shopping as well. Even the big box stores are beginning to offer more local products, more organic products, and more specialty products. At the low end of t spectrum, the deluxe sandwiches offered by McDonalds reflect this. McDonald's value, with a better (perceived) product line. I see this as refinement/evolution of the rush to bargain prices that we saw at the end of the 00's. it won't be limited to one cuisine... ie chinese or peruvian or..... but an across the board shift of focus.
Filipino food have been on the down-low for awhile, but it was rolling upwards, last year. So, I'm thinking Filipino food will be the next "it" ethnic cuisine. There are number of mom and pop places, plus well known fast food joints in the Bay Area, but I think it will soon go mainstream and "gourmet" and more upscale, modern Filipino restaurants will follow suit, whatever that means. Hopefully, it's not just adobo and sisig tacos for $4 a pop.
re: Eat.Choui
Pardon my ignorance, but I really don't know what constitutes Filipino cuisine. Fill us in?
re: SouthToTheLeft
Sorry for the late reply. Enbell's link is a good indicator.
I'm surprise that, being in SF, you haven't been exposed to Filipino cuisine. I guess the "gateway" food is chicken adobo and lumpia. You should check out the food cart scene, since that's where things are blooming and it will definitely expand.
re: Eat.Choui
I don't eat pork or beef, so haven't found many Filipino dishes that were me friendly!
re: SouthToTheLeft
Chicken adobo?
re: SouthToTheLeft
This restaurant is in Oakland
*Google search result only however- no personal experience
Some ideas:
eggplant adobo
(keep scrolling down)
re: Eat.Choui
I once had a teacher who was Filipino. I now live in Dubai, which has a very large Filipino population. My maid is Filipino. I've tried various Filipino dishes over the years and I do think this is the one cuisine that just isn't going to hit the mainstream food scene.
re: Roland Parker
I disagree. From what I'm seeing, the American palate is expanding to more adventurous taste and Filipino food won't be left behind. Here's a good article:
re: Roland Parker
much as i enjoy filipino food, i tend to agree. american tastes don't run much to fish sauce which is in a lot of dishes. many of the ingredients are tropical and not readily avialable, and we can just forget about dinuguan. as someone said, aside from adobo (which is not like mexican adobo) and lumpia.... and i know lots of americans who wont eat the adobo because the vinegar taste is too strong (but they claim to love sauerkraut). I guess we could add guisantes (pork and peas) to the possible list.
re: KaimukiMan
Same could have been said of Thai food not too long ago, and you pretty much can't have a strip mall down here without a Thai takeout place these days.
One other selling point of Filipino food is that there are more dessert options than some other Asian cuisines.
re: beachmouse
So. . . a couple of friends took me to Max's of Manilla tonight for dinner. I can't say that it was a typical Filipino meal because about all they ordered was meat. Included were:
Crispy fried Chicken (no problem for most americans)
Pork Sinigang (depending on what cuts, although it's not generally chops...) and some of the ingredients (sigang, tamarind, kangkong) are gonna be hard for many places to find in the US. Still it was tasty
Cripsy Pata (parboiled, breaded & fried pork shank/knuckles) So tasty, so crispy, and my cardiologist would have had a fit.
Pork Lechon (crispy roast pork belly) More anguish for my cardiologist... again wonderful crispy skin, the melted fat, dripping onto the plate
Garlic Rice, nothing wrong there.
We almost ordered Pinakbet/Pakbet but decided why mess up the theme with vegetables.
Even though these dishes were pretty tame, mostly recognizable meat, I just dont see the average American ordering pork dishes like these that rely so heavily on very fatty cuts of meat that give them that unique taste and texture. I'm sure glad I'm not the average American. As soon as I recover, I'm gonna want more.
Oh yeah, we had Halo Halo for dessert (well technically bogo pandang... green jello, tappioca pearls, coconut milk, coconut flakes, and ice cream) You know, that sugar and coconut milk neutralizes the pork fat....
re: KaimukiMan
I know tamarind and kangkong, but what is sigang?
For what it's worth, my American friends love sinigang na ribs and at one time or another they've eaten pretty much everything you ordered at Max's. In fact no cut of meat you ordered would raise alarm at the trendy restaurants here in NYC. Pork belly is so common it has almost become a culinary cliché.
re: JungMann
sili pag sigang (green finger pepper) sorry, it's often just called sigang here.
for a nation that is obsessed with boneless skinless chicken breast, pork hocks and pork belly is quite a contradiction, but life is full of contradictions. I do know that there are many excellent (and much lighter) Filipino foods that are chock full of vegetables. I just know what kind of looks Filipino foods get from my non foodie friends here.
I was amused by the description of Dinaguang at Max's... a rich pork stew.... ummm....yeah, ok. (and yes, I eat and enjoy dinaguang)
re: KaimukiMan
I just ate a Halo Halo cannoli from Hapa SF. It totally neutralized the sisig meal that I ate :D
re: Roland Parker
I don't think roadblock is flavor so much as it is in the execution. A lot of restauranteurs nail the flavors but lack the ability to broaden their customer base whether because they lack a marketing plan or because they are isolated. Others fail to aspire to more beyond catering to the turo-turo market and don't get me started on the frequent occurence of the almost brilliant Filipino restaurant that fails to be consistent and ultimately closes.
Vietnamese cuisine has hit the big time and yet they use far more nuoc mam than a Filipino kitchen. I even see people snacking on banh gio which are not nearly as interesting as Filipino tamales. I dress my dishes up a bit in cross-cultural reference and the Brooklyn crowd goes crazy for my longaniza pintxos, lechon kawali and kilawin, but that's not to say they don't also eat sinigang, binagoongan, hopia or pancit palabok which I make pretty traditionally.
re: bulavinaka
and in homes..and outdoor kitchens. I see a trend in better quality techniques at home. More people are looking to entertain themselves, family and friends in their own backyard. I think its for economy and hobby. I see food preparation as becoming even more of a hobby than in recent history.
re: sedimental
>>More people are looking to entertain themselves, family and friends in their own backyard. I think its for economy and hobby.<<
There's no place like home - for a lot of reasons, right?
Food trucks. Cities & municipalities that heretofore banned them are drafting regulations to permit them (except LA, which is implementing further restrictions). Good value (low overhead) , good food on the fly, GPS accessible. The new wave, and the good ones go viral. It's a prediction by The Economist, which is always right...:)
re: Veggo
From predictions made in 2009:
NYC food truck breakdown of the best, 2010:
And good food rolls on...
re: bushwickgirl
And speaking of gin, it seems to be politely yet diligently climbing up the liquor cabinet scene. Hendrick's?
re: bulavinaka
Hasn't Hendrick's been the "it" gin for a decade now?
re: linguafood
I've seen it more often are more places and in even the 1.75 size which tells me that it's becoming even more "it" over the past couple of years.
re: linguafood
Just stumbled upon this:
Good points in general on food trends, but just as we were talkin'...
re: SouthToTheLeft
I agree! And I know they are capitalizing on it being trendy at the moment.
re: Eat.Choui
The traditional food trucks - mostly Mexican food - are usually a good deal, especially if it's from a Chow-approved truck. The new food trucks typically don't offer value - they're usually about offering something that either is unique to the area (e.g., banh mi outside of the Vietnamese-rich neighborhoods), or something that's just different all together (e.g., Kogi et al). I'm not much of a food truck fan as I've either been disappointed with the quality and/or the portion sizes. I've personally found that in order for me to have more than a snack, I have to hit more than one truck - which can be kinda fun, but time is not on your side.
Soylent products will com into fashion. You'll have to wait for the green one though... ;) Won't be out until 2022!
Last year I predicted Jewish deli traditions would make a comeback, and they have a little bit, e.g. Traif in Brooklyn, but I still think we'll be seeing more. High-end takes on/uses for schmaltz, gribenes, latkes, etc.
re: Sandwich_Sister
We've started doing a lot of Indian (okay more British-Indian) cooking in the past year, and enjoy it because it can be a relatively easy and fairly quick semi-one dish dinner- make your protein with a little bit of veggie and an interesting sauce, and then serve over starch.
re: c oliver
The term's been around for a good 15, 20 years. I'd guess. Synonymous with Contemporary American. If "it cuisine" suggests a spike in trendiness, I wouldn't say it's that at all—it's American restaurant cooking today, it's the general state of things in the US industry. There's a difference. Post-nouveau, incorporating global influences on the one hand, responding to the local/seasonal movement on the other.
Home cooking, anyone? Magazines like Fine Cooking seem to pushing that trend, with a substantial chunk of the latest issue (Feb/March 2011) devoted to meat loaf.

Climb The Tallest Mountain In The World In 30 Mins
Mount Everest gets all the credit, but Hawaii's Mauna Kea (an idle volcano that's been around for, you know, a million years) is technically the world's tallest mountain. Technically. While it stands 13,800ft above sea level, more than two thirds of the hill is actually submerged underwater, which brings the total height to 33,136ft.

Authorities say a 16-year-old Boy Scout has died after falling off a cliff at Stone Mountain State Park.

Rafael Ynoa of the Chattanooga LookoutsPhoto by John Rawlston /Chattanooga Times Free Press.
PEARL, Miss. -- Rafael Ynoa's third hit of the game led to Chattanooga's third run Monday night, and that 10th-inning score gave the Lookouts a 3-2 Southern League baseball win over the Mississippi Braves.
Ynoa, who went 3-for-5, singled to right field with one out in the top of the 10th and came around on another single to right by Nick Russ and a sacrifice fly by Kyle Russell for the tiebreaking run. Steve Ames then recorded his 10th save of the season to preserve the good work of starting pitcher Ethan Martin and Chris Withrow (1-1, 5.07 ERA).
Ynoa and Buss led off the game with singles, and both scored for a quick 2-0 lead. Martin took a no-hitter into the sixth inning, when Jason Christian led off with a single to center and wound up scoring on Christian Bethancourt's single past shortstop. The Braves tied it at 2 in the seventh when Ian Gac doubled to center and scored on Philip Gosselin's sacrifice fly to center.
The finale of the four-game series is tonight at 8 EDT. Matt Magill (7-4, 4.08) is the scheduled starting pitcher for the Lookouts, with David Hale (6-4, 4.06) listed for the Braves.
Magill was named Monday as Southern League pitcher of the week after throwing six scoreless innings in his only appearance last week against Pensacola. He has won the award three times this year and leads the league with 101 strikeouts.

- Summary: Team Colonel is the second edition of Mega Man Battle Network 5.

Negative: 0 out of 11
Improves on the features that were introduced in the previous game and implements some new features that longtime fans should appreciate. On the other hand, it also retains the same graphics, audio, and basic game design that have been with the series since its inception roughly four years ago.
If you're looking for a reinvention of the franchise, you'd best spend your money elsewhere. [Aug 2005, p.108]
To say Mega Man Battle Network 5 is good would be an accurate verdict, but to say it's worth your $30 is ludicrous.
It's all just an incremental advancement, more focusing on a new story than a new experience. And the story doesn't really go that far away from what's already been done in the past four games.
Just as good as, if not a tad better than, their predecessors. They're just not any different. [Aug 2005, p.81]
There's no reason to knock a formula that works, but keeping too close to the formula through five editions is only going to satisfy those who have a truly insatiable thirst for more of the same.

Jun 11, 2012This isn't the horrible atrocity that is battle Network 4, but the same crisis scenarios are matched with the different navis depending on the version you buy. Musicwise aside from the internet theme, the soundtrack is laughable at best. Capcom could've truly done better if they went back to the formula and graphics used in Battle Networks 1-3, hell if they did the series would probably still be around and selling!… Expand

This is a refreshing yet filling salad that easily works as a meal. I first made it more than 2 years ago, and then subsequently lost the recipe. Disappointment! Fast forward two years, and it mysteriously shows up tucked into a cookbook that I rarely look at (a healthy vegetarian cookbook. Hah!). And now I'm posting it here so I don't lose one of my favorite salad recipes AGAIN. Hope you enjoy!

The Archiprix Foundation, a network of young, prominent architects, organizes the competition biannually. For the 2011 challenge 1400 universities worldwide were invited to submit their best final year projects. Over 300 projects from 70 countries were received, from which 24 finalists were announced in October 2010. Ruann's project was also nominated as a participant's favourite. Leading up to the awards ceremony, held on 9 June 2011 at the Guggenheim Museum in New York, the finalists participated in workshops and an exhibition hosted by the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
Ruann's dissertation, completed under study leader Jacques Laubscher and mentor Marianne de Klerk, achieved top honours in the Department in 2009. It proposes a public bathhouse in the Marabastad precinct in Tshwane and investigates the ritual of cleansing in an urban environment, thereby celebrating a fundamental human act. Informed by the context and the potential of social integration, the built form is layered to provide graded levels of privacy. The full document of his study is available at http://upetd.up.ac.za/thesis/available/etd-12072009-133644/.
According to the jury: "The winning projects are related to the DNA of recognizable architects or architectural styles, but they are another evolutionary step beyond that DNA, and stand out because of the authentic voice of the individual designers and the clear positions they take. They are all very powerful projects and go beyond style. What they have in common is poetics."
Laubscher, who also coordinated the final year studio, said that he believes this award once again positions our graduates amongst the best in the world. He added that the achievement represented the collective dedication of the staff and student body to excellence in the built environment.
Ruann has just returned from the United States and has been invited to share his experiences with the Department at an open lecture during the second semester.
This is the fourth major accolade awarded to students of the Department of Architecture in the last 12 months. A year ago Jacques Orton's electronic dissertation received an international award from the Networked Digital Library of Theses and Dissertations, in September 2010 Carla Taljaard, Stephen Steyn and Warwick Manley won the national Murray & Roberts Des Baker competition and in February Jankel Nieuwoudt won the DesignHub Respond-Renew-Revitalise Competition sponsored by Saint Gobain, in which the Department was also named best university participant.

- How to Read a Study Record
The study objective is to clarify whether the application of CPFA (coupled plasma-filtration adsorption) in addition to the current clinical practice is able to reduce mortality and prevent organ failures in septic shock patients in intensive care unit (ICU).
Shock, Septic
Device: CPFA (Coupled Plasma Filtration Adsorption)
|Study Type:
|Study Design:
|Allocation: Randomized
Endpoint Classification: Efficacy Study
Intervention Model: Parallel Assignment
Masking: Open Label
Primary Purpose: Treatment
|Official Title:
|COMPACT (COMbining Plasma-filtration and Adsorption Clinical Trial): Efficacy and Safety of CPFA (Coupled Plasma Filtration Adsorption) for Septic Shock in the ICU
- Hospital mortality (for patients discharged to other hospital, it will be intended as mortality at the discharge from the latest hospital in which the patients stayed) [ Time Frame: At the discharge from the latest hospital ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]
- Mortality within 90 days from randomization [ Time Frame: 90 days from randomization ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]
- New organ failures (assessed through SOFA score) [ Time Frame: Within ICU stay ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]
- Days not spent in the ICU during the first 30 days from randomization [ Time Frame: 30 days from randomization ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]
|Study Start Date:
|December 2006
|Study Completion Date:
|July 2011
|Primary Completion Date:
|December 2010 (Final data collection date for primary outcome measure)
|Assigned Interventions
|Experimental: 1
Device: CPFA (Coupled Plasma Filtration Adsorption)
CPFA is a specific method for the treatment of sepsis.
It consists of:
The kit is lodged in the Bellco "Lynda" machine (Bellco Mirandola, Italy). The treatment consists of the separation of plasma from the whole blood with adsorption of the inflammatory mediators and cytokines from the plasma, and a subsequent purification step by way of a hemofilter.
Other Name: Coupled Plasma Filtration Adsorption
|No Intervention: 2
Detailed Description:
Septic shock is a life-threatening clinical condition characterized by cardiovascular failure as a consequence of infection. Septic shock frequently causes multi-organ failure in the ICU. For this reason the extracorporeal therapies for the treatment of renal failure have become widespread in the ICU and, at the same time, new extracorporeal depurative techniques have been developed for the removal of inflammatory mediators. One of these techniques is CPFA (coupled plasma-filtration adsorption) that uses a sorbent once the separation between plasma and blood has been obtained with a plasma filter. The study objective is to clarify whether the application of CPFA in addition to the current clinical practice is able to reduce mortality and prevent organ failures in septic shock patients in intensive care unit.
|Ages Eligible for Study:
|18 Years and older
|Genders Eligible for Study:
|Accepts Healthy Volunteers:
Inclusion Criteria:
- All patients admitted to the ICU in septic shock
- All patients that develop septic shock while in the ICU
Exclusion Criteria:
- Age less than 18 years
- Pregnancy
- Cardiopulmonary resuscitation
- Cerebral coma
- Metastatic cancer
- Presence of relative or absolute contraindications to CPFA
- Estimated life expectancy less than 2 weeks
- Already included in the study
- Admission from an other ICU where the patient remained for more than 24 hours
- Absence of informed consent

"I still think the Superkick is the best finisher ever. It was just so good. There's so many [favorites]. I think Antonio Cesaro's finish right now is cool. I always loved the Piledriver, so an adaptation of the Piledriver is very awesome to me. I've always loved submission holds, so I love the Sharpshooter, that sort of thing. I love Dean Malenko's Cloverleaf. The things that I never really liked as finishers were the stuff that was wacky, stuff like the Von Erichs, who did the Tornado Punch, you know what I mean? The Ultimate Warrior, even though he was my favorite as a kid, had the Press Slam, and then he'd hit the ropes a couple of times and give 'em the Big Splash, the Hulk Hogan Legdrop, stuff like that was all stuff where I was just like, 'Eh.' To be fair, I honestly always hated the Rock Bottom. To me, it was just like, 'Uh, that's weird and stupid.'"
- Daniel Bryan discussing finishing moves and how he hates the one used by Rock
Japanese star Kenta Kobayashi, the wrestler who made the Go 2 Sleep finisher internationally famous, could be signed to a developmental deal with WWE soon. He was recently spotted at the WWE Performance Center, where he was given a tryout by officials.
While Daniel Bryan was able to dish out a lot of punishment towards his foe, it was Bray Wyatt that stood victoriously at the end of their match at Royal Rumble 2014. Wyatt got the pin fall victory after nail his finisher twice, once of which was done outside the ring.
While he doesn't get to show it off very often on Monday Night Raw or Smackdown, Jinder Mahal does actually have a finishing move. It's the camel clutch submission, and it has been recreated in the new WWE 2K14 video game.
When Cody Rhodes and Goldust had a lot of momentum going for them, there were talks of bringing Brandi Rhodes up to the main roster, but those discussions have died down as of late, as WWE is focusing all of their attention on the new network, Royal Rumble and Wrestlemania.
While she is currently training at the performance center, WWE is expected to call Brandi Rhodes up as an on screen character first.
Brandi Rhodes has announced that she will be returning to WWE and will start training at the performance center on Monday.

Baby and Kids
What you need to know:
One morning in 2010, Founder Lindsay Wegesin was sitting with her son Landon on her lap who was drinking cold milk out of his sippy cup. He reached back and put his little hand on her cheek and it was FREEZING cold! Lindsay chuckled and said to him "burrrr, you need an insulator for your sippy cup!" She immediately marched upstairs to the computer to search for baby bottle/sippy cup insulators, thinking they would be found at any retailer. Much to her surprise, she found nothing! Immediately the light bulb turned on and the Kidzikoos idea was born!

Hasta la vista, baby: Arnold Day X is coming
If quippy one-liners interspersed with action sequences is your bag, then you're not gonna wanna miss Arnold Day X. An event that started with two friends, a VCR and their favorite local pizza and beer joint has grown into an annual celebration of Arnold Schwarzenegger's birthday. This Saturday at Lazy Moon Pizza, Governator fans gather to dress like Arnold, quote along with Arnold's one-liners and just rejoice in general on the day of (or the weekend drinkin' day closest to) the action star's birthday.
This year, since it's the tenth iteration of the movie marathon birthday party, they'll be screening nine of Ah-nold's greatest works (all the beer consumed represents the tenth movie):
- Total Recall
- Conan the Barbarian
- Commando
- True Lies
- Terminator
- Predator
- Kindergarten Cop
- Sabotage
- Running Man
In addition to the movie screenings, there will be Arnold-related food and drink specials going on all day, including, maybe, just maybe, dollar beers during every Arnold/bad guy face-off. Event organizers are also trying their damnedest to get the Terminator himself to show up to the event by raising fat stacks of cash for one of the actor's favorite charities, After-School All-Stars.
The details:
When: noon – 2 a.m. Saturday, July 26
Where: Lazy Moon Pizza, 11551 University Blvd.
