Beginner-level cookbook with beautiful photos? Italian preferred
- s
- Sir Gawain Jul 15, 2005 02:53 PM
I'm one of those lame people who need visual stimulation in order to get motivated to cook a meal. (This is not true of baking, only cooking.) And I really, really need to learn how to cook - I only have the barest, most basic kitchen skills. But my kitchen is teeny-tiny, I have no diswasher, and am lazy and unambitious (again, only in cooking).
That said, I really like Bittman's "Everything" cookbook and Marcella's "Essentials", but don't cook from them nearly often enough because I just need those glossy photos to get me going.
Jamie Oliver sounds like a bit of a twit in person, but I heard the recipes actually work. I only have Nigella's Goddess cookbook, and though I like the pics and the prose, the recipes are merely OK. How are her other books?
Do you have any recommendations? I'm not looking for a dumb "celebrity" cookbook, but a basic one with good, simple recipes and plentiful, nice photography. I want SIMPLE, light on the labor, big on the flavor. Please share your wisdom.
What about the new Batali book? I did not think it was good enough to be a regional reference italian piece for the hardcore purists, but it is a very nice book. The recipes are good (and mostly available free on foodtv) and most have big glossy photos to get you going. Seems to fit what you are looking for. I have a good success rate with his stuff and he is fairly faithfull to tradition which means simple, direct, rustic food with good flavor.
Don't know how helpful this will be but I was given the River Cafe cook books, One & Two, by a relative and I have to say they're very good looking Italian food photos-full page, color close-up shots. Two English women, Rose Gray & Ruth Rogers, are the authors (hence their preferred salt is maldon) and my books are from England, so I'm not sure how difficult to find in the US. The recipes are pretty simple & loose, combining a few quality ingredients sort of thing and the pasta pics in particular inspire me to start boiling water.
re: petradish
Posted awhile ago and didn't get a response, but I'm a die hard so I'll try again: Sir Gawain, did you post a 2-person souffle recipe awhile back when someone asked for quick dessert ideas? It was really easy: mix ingredients, put in two small ramekins, bake.
Of course, I lost the link and don't remember the proportions! If it was you and you're feeling generous, could you please re-post?. Thank you so much!
re: nooodles
Yeah, that was me, except it was a one greedy person's soufflé... for a true one person's soufllé, use just one egg. But it always seems a pitifully small amount to me, so I almost always use two. Hell, it's just a soufflé, it§s not like it has a zillion calories.
I am sorry but I actually don't remember exactly what proportions I use, but something like this:
Preheat oven to 375-400. Separate two eggs, beat the whites until almost stiff (err on the side of underbeating), mix the yolks with... let's say... a 1/3 cup ricotta or a bit more, add sugar, vanilla extract and/or lemon zest to taste (the mixture should be very sweet and flavorful; the whites will dilute it.) Butter ramekins and coat insides with granulated sugar. Now add whites to yolk mixture, mix and spoon into ramekins. Bake in the upper third until tops are browned.
I have also done this without separating the eggs, just whipping the hell out of them and then adding flavorings and ricotta. Was good too but didn't rise that much, and I think it took a bit longer to bake.
I'm sorry it's all very approximate, the thing never comes out the same but it's never bad. Sometimes the bottom is a little runny, which I don't mind in the least, but if you do, test with a skewer for doneness.
re: Sir Gawain
I want to recommend the Boyajian citrus oils for flavoring. Very intense, you don't have to ruin a lemon, and they really perfume the soufflé. Go easy on them though - usually a few drops is enough. Lemon is my favorite.
re: Sir Gawain
Thank you!! I am one greedy person, so that sounds perfect to me.
re: nooodles
Oops! I think 1/3 cup ricotta is about the max you should use. Originally I had "1/4 or a bit more". I think I use about three heaped spooonfuls (using a big ole soup spoon) of ricotta, whatever that amounts to. Probably closer to 1/4 than 1/3 cup.
Good luck, let me know how it goes! My e-mail is above...
re: petradish
The River Cafe cookbook sounds good. Seems the English have a special genius for cookbooks, eh? And I really adore English desserts, esp. puddings.
Love Maldon salt too.
I find all the cookbooks written by Jack Bishop (Vegetables Every Day, Pasta E Verdura, Lasagna, and The Italian Vegetarian) to be excellent, vegetarian-ish oriented as they may be. The recipes use simple, straightforward techniques, the writing is non-hokey, and the pictures in The Italian Vegetarian are gorgeous. He has several lentil dishes, a potato and arugula pizza, a minestrone recipe, and several green bean and zucchini recipes that I use all the time. And the cornmeal/dried cherry biscotti recipe is kick-ass. He's a Cook's Illustrated author/alum, but lacks the preachy tone that other CI writers can have.
The recipes in Pasta E Verdura are all vegetable sauces for pasta w/specific pasta reccomendations, but no pictures.
One of Marcella Hazan's cookbooks - Marcella Cucina- does have beautiful photos, thogh not one per recipe
Her son, Giuliano Hazan, has more of a beginner level cookbook with photos (but I do not recall which one has more photography out of two cookbooks that I have seen), and I like his mother's approach in his recipes.
It looks like he has another forthcoming book How to Cook Italian so perhaps you might want to check it out?
Antipasti-The Little Dishes of Italy by Julia Della Croce. It is out of print but Amazon says they have it from $4.00+.
It is soft bound, the pictures will make you drool, the recipes are terrific. Not all of the dishes are "little" and many could stand as mains.
Although not Italian, I think the Barefoot Contessa books by Ina Garten meet all your other criteria. I particularly recommend the first book and the Parties book, although they are all excellent for beginners. With few exceptions, each recipe is photographed. The Indonesian Ginger Chicken alone is worth the price of the first book. Simple and easy to follow recipes.
I wracked my brain to think of a good cookbook rec for you, but alas, nothing came to mind. Then I tried to remember what got me motivated to get into the kitchen 10 yrs. ago, and I would have to give lots of credit to Bon Appetit. They've since gone downhill IMO, but I would recommend a subscription to Food & Wine. I haven't seen an issue in a while, but they always struck me as having a very Italian bias. Simple to moderate recipes w/ accessible ingredients. There's a mag called Cucina Italiana, but it's kind of advanced and obscure and the food pics are stark and hideous IMO.
What's great about a mag is that you get one in the mail every month so it's like another kick in the butt or, ahem, motivator to get cooking. New recipes to try. Glossy photos. People hosting parties and looking like they're having lots of fun. A full Thanksgiving menu. BBQ recipes in the summer. I give credit to Bon Appetit for making me realize what produce and type of food worked best for what season. Lots of generalized info for a new cook. I say fun, generalized food mags first then focused cookbooks later. Good luck.
re: Carb Lover
A food magazine subscription is a good idea. I wouldn't say Food & Wine has an italian bias anymore, though. It's pretty eclectic-- the one thing I have noted is more whole grains, protein, and non-starchy vegetable dishes, which I like since I eat lower on the carb chain. Most of the recipes are straightforward, all are well written, and there are good photos of most dishes. However, for good recipes, simple techniques and ingredient lists, and recipes I'm always interested in, I'd have to say Fine Cooking beats F & W, which can be a bit like Travel & Leisure with a foodie bent. Again, not italian in focus, but there's usually a pasta or mediterranean dish or two in each edition, and the pictures are great.
re: emdb
I thought about Fine Cooking, but still think that Food & Wine might be more appropriate in this case. I say this b/c F&W has a nice blend of cooking, lifestyle, and restaurant/chef type articles that makes the whole idea of cooking more "hip" and exciting to a newbie cook. When I used to get F&W, the recipes generally worked well and my one F&W cookbook from 1999 def. has beautiful pictures and inspired me to experiment in the beginning. Just my two cents.
re: Carb Lover
Here's a link for an Italian food magazine
re: ChowFun (derek)
Thanks for all the suggestions. I actually subscribe to F&W as well as Gourmet, and love the pictures (though kind of hate those overstyled stories about ultra-rich people in their perfect homes, wearing designer clothes and just "tossing together" these elaborate meals on their scenic estates. But it's just sour grapes on my part...) The trouble with magazines is that finding a recipe you feel like cooking today can a bit of a drag, as you have to carefully flip through several issues before hitting on one. I want a straightforward cookbook where I don't have to wade through a million ad pages and where things are spelled out for the inexperienced cook.
re: Sir Gawain
Oh yes, you point out a big problem w/ food mags. They are the worst references when you actually want to find something! I do remember that. When I was organized, I would try to bookmark pages w/ post-it notes that had recipes I wanted to try.
That's actually why I really liked my F&W cookbook that had compiled the best recipes from 1999. Everything was in one place and well-indexed. That got me thinking that you might like "Saveur Cooks Authentic Italian" if you like Saveur's style (see link). They have some of the best photography, and most recipes I've tried from Saveur have turned out well and weren't too difficult IMO. I don't personally own the book, but perhaps another hound can speak to it.
Molto Italiano by Batali looks pretty good and close to what you seem to be wanting. I don't own it, but have given it a thorough perusing at the bookstore. I'm biased toward big cookbooks with lots of recipes, but most of the Italian cookbooks I own have few or no photos.
Nigella's cooking programs (Style Network?) are what got me going on her. Her desserts, especially.
I think Jamie Oliver's cookbooks are great (agree about the twit bit, tho)! I use his recipes all the time and the pix are beautiful.
The Chez Panisse Cookbook (by Waters and Paul Bertoli of Oliveto in Oakland CA fame) has quite a number of good Italianesque recipes and photos. Some are easy.
Ada Boni's Italian Regional Cooking is filled with gorgeous photos, but I the recipes are not beginner-type and I think it's out of print (You could prob get it at the Strand in NYC or online somewhere).
Buona fortuna!
re: oakjoan
Oh, yeah...and the River Cafe cookbooks - can't remember the names of both the women who run the place...one is Rogers (Rodgers?)
Jamie Oliver got his start there. They have at least 3 cookbooks.
re: oakjoan
IMO, every kitchen needs a copy of Ada Boni's Italian Regional Cooking.

The weather was unpredictable at Donington Park
By Gary pinchin -
26 July 2009 21:25
Warm –up today was wet, wet enough to mean that everyone got a handle on what would be needed set-up wise if the weather stayed miserable.
Bridgestone tyres seem to work better after they have been scrubbed in on the spare bike, so everyone gets a couple of laps in on one set on the spare bike then makes sure the race bike also gets a good few laps.
The idea is not to crash, just to get the riders head up to speed. It doesn't really matter how fast they go, unless they have a set-up issue that need to be resolved, in which case, it is worth really going for it.
With the weather conditions as they were, tyres were no longer an issue because the single wet practice session had ensured there were enough tyres left over out of the allocation, wet or dry.
Normally though the teams would use up the tyres in warm-up that they had decided they would not need for the race.
Conditions for the race, though, were difficult. It was spotting with rain as riders set-off on their formation lap so the conundrum was: is it going to stay dry(ish) or is it going to get wetter.
There seemed little chance of it drying out completely, give the overcast conditions.
The riders came back from sighting lap, stopped on the grid, got a shock to see the Ducatis sitting there with steel discs and wet tyres.
Everyone waited for them to change but they didn't and Andrea Dovizioso - who really swears - was heard to exclaim f**k in total disbelief as he looked across at their set-up.
It's not like the 125 or 250 classes where you change wheels if you make a bad call on tyre choice, in MotoGP you swap bikes. But while the time penalty for changing is quite low, it is still significant.
Ten laps into the race the Ducatis were beaten, both Casey Stoner and Nicky Hayden were so far back that it was pointless swapping to a slick-shod bike, and their wets had degraded enough to not be as good as a fresh set.
So even if it had chucked it down with rain again any of their rivals could have pitted for a wet set-up bike and still rejoined the race in front of them - and with fresher wets.
But while it did continue to rain , and four riders came into the pits for their wet-set-up bikes, the rain never fell heavy enough to really warrant wets, although those who stayed on slicks continued with extreme caution
As a result of what seemed a strange gamble (normally if teams gamble they would not gamble on both riders stating with an identical set-up) Ducati saw their title hopes take another knock.
By lap 22, whether they were on slicks and wets, the riders were lapping in similar times - but those who had stayed out on slicks came out on top.

Agreed, a great story and race to watch and viewing figures have done nothing but good for the sport so i guess even though the riders have stories of could have been the spectators (you and me) have a blast!
off to Brno.. .yippie!
27 July 2009 21:37
Although Ducati Team management would have been far happier to see both riders start on slicks - Suppo quite correctly deferred to Hayden & Stoner who were both adamant they wanted to race on wets. It is their own personal safety and judgement on the line in ultra-dodgy conditions after all. As it happens, Livio Suppo echoed my opinion ( that I continue to stand by ) literally word for word. What's that old saying about we were playing chess - while everyone else was playing checkers ? Sometimes, the way circumstances play out you can still be wrong - even when you're right - if you take my point? Rossi got lucky yesterday. Almost without exception, when a bike is " decked " it is too badly damaged or the controls are so out of whack that it is unrideable. That he was able to pick it up and re-mount was luck. That he was able to recover and take 5th ( and some points ) from JT who tried like a Trojan ( the soldier - not the other thing ) was pure guts and talent. As I said earlier - they all deserved a medal - including the two Ducati guys. Wouldn't it be boring if we all agreed all of the time ?

Photos and Description of this 2 bedroom holiday cottage in Penrith - Nell Gwyn Cottage at Orton Hall
2 bedroom cottage (sleeps 4) within a wing of elegant Orton Hall
Nell Gwyn Cottage is located in a wing of Orton Hall, a Jacobean Mansion in Orton, Cumbria. It is approached via an automatic gate along a tree lined drive in seven acres of private grounds. It is a couple of minutes from the village and is conveniently located for holiday activities in the Lakes, the Dales and the Eden Valley, whilst also being easy of access via the M6 motoway or the trans Pennine A66 route.
Nell Gwyn has been renovated to a high specification and enlarged to form a well proportioned dwelling in which the charm of an old cottage blends with modern facilities. It has two large bedrooms, two bathrooms, a comfortable and spacious lounge with TV, VCR, DVD and CD Stereo System, a dining hall and a fully fitted traditional kitchen with oak units, dishwasher, refrigerator, oven, ceramic hob and microwave oven. The cottage offers a secluded holiday location which is nevertheless close to village amenities and convenient of access being just minutes from the M6 motorway. Whether you are looking for an active holiday or just a quiet place to unwind, Nell Gwyn is the perfect base, offering easy access to the Lake District, the Yorkshire Dales and the Eden Valley.
Orton Hall is a grade II listed mansion dating from the 1660's with additions made in the late 19th century.
It is approached along a private drive through well established grounds of about seven acres, in which there are mature trees, extensive lawns and plenty of space to relax. Facilities for communal use include an elegant oak panelled great hall with pool table and piano, a coin op laundry and storage space suitable for bicycles.
Described by A W Wainwright as "one of Westmorland's loveliest villages" Orton gained the Cumbria Best of Countryside Award in 2002 and Cumbria Village of the Year 2004. There is a shop cum post office, a pub which serves meals, and two tearooms, one listed in the Les Routiers guide. For those with a sweet tooth, a further attraction will be Kennedy's hand made chocolate factory, with its associated shop. Orton is also a popular stop off point for Coast to Coast walkers.
Orton boasts one of the original Farmers Markets featuring produce from local farmers and growers. This is a regular sell out event, taking place on the second Saturday of each month.

The quality of the fish is top tier. Cooked fish such as eel and octopus is to perfection. Service is friendly and having vodka cocktails is a plus.
Sushi is outstanding..ask for the volcano, spicey crunchy crab or the honeymoon...they make their own tempura batter...very light and just perfect.
Their bento boxes are also outstanding.
Stopped in here as I was walking near my hotel looking for a place to eat dinner. A very nice surprise for being in a little strip mall. Great sushi/maki, and the service was excellent. The staff seemed to know many of the people who came in, so I'm guessing they have quite a local following.
This is a simple restaurant with excellent staff and terrific food at a great value. A great meal and it is never empty.
this place has very fresh sushi...my husband is Japanese and it has been hard to find a place with good fresh sushi...Matsu has great sushi chefs. it is fresh and tasty. the other food is great too. the tempura and teriyaki chicken is very good. my favorite!!! the CA rolls are good and large!!! the staff is very friendly and...
This is an unpretentious, little, quiet sushi restaurant. Good prices for absolutely great very fresh sushi. There is a long list of roll and sushi options plus a normal menu too. I eat at Matsu once a week and the service is quick and efficient every time.
This was the first time I visited this place based on reviews from Trip Advisor. I must say, the service and food were very good. I thought the sushi was very fresh and quite tasty though they could have been a little larger. I particularly enjoyed the green mussels. If I'm in this area again, I will visit this place...
We have been eating at Matsu Sushi for several years. Recently they had a new fresh fish dish,
Alaskan Cod with soyaki (spelling?) sauce and stir fried vegetables. This dish was wonderful! Served hot right away. I'm sure this was a special, but they have done it with other fish. My wife usually get the seafood salad or sushi. The...
A little pricey and I was overcharged without receiving the extras that were supposed to come with my meal, but the sushi was wonderful. Very fresh and unique combinations. The sushi chef was willing to make things other than what is listed on the menu. Cute atmosphere. Definitely recommend!
We go to the Bay Area 4 times a year for business and I would have say after trying several sushi places this one is the best. Its located in a strip mall, it medium small and quaint. The sushi is fresh and delicious with good prices, the staff is wonderful as well as the sushi chefs. We had the...

Ramo Wins First Game Since Returning From Knee SurgerySubmitted by pete on November 24, 2005 - 16:35
There's no Thanksiving in Finland where Karri Ramo and HPK defeated KalPa today 4-2. The 19 year old netminder stopped 28 of 30 shots for the victory and was named second star of the game. Karri's back to back starts for HPK since returning from his knee injury seem to indicate he has retained his starting role for the club despite missing about a month rehabilitating. Ramo's record now improves to 3 wins, 1 loss and 3 shutout losses on the season.

Game Night 11/23: Lightning at CapitalsSubmitted by pete on November 23, 2005 - 20:45
Now THAT is some exciting NHL action. TB-4 WSH-3 (SO) The Lightning reacted to falling behind 3-0 in a very positive way and charged back to tie the game 3-3 partly on the strength of two Dan Boyle goals and had numerous opportunities to win it in regulation and overtime. But, perhaps, this way is better as the Lightning finally got the shootout monkey off their backs thanks to John Grahame and shootout markers by Brad Richards and Vaclav Prospal. Amongst the rookies, I thought Paul Ranger quietly had an outstanding game at his end of the rink. He continues to surprise me with how poised he is defensively. The young man is very active with the stick and is very cool, calm and adept at spinning away from forecheckers and making the smart play to move the puck out of danger. 19:20 of even ice time tonight. Evgeny Artyukhin with 11:07 of ice time, 3 hits and 2 minor penalties. Game sheet from [url=http://www.nhl.com/scores/htmlreports/20052006/GS020324.HTM]NHL.com.[/url]

There are many jobs in the world which we wouldn't want. Ranking high among them is Irving Picard's. He's the guy stuck with managing the liquidation of Bernie Madoff's firm. Having purportedly defrauded his clients (including numerous charitable foundations) of over $50 billion, Madoff has undoubtedly left quite a mess to untangle, and we're glad someone else is taking care of it while we write about cars for a living. But amidst that assuredly insurmountable mess is a fleet of luxury automobiles that Bernard L. Madoff Investment Securities had leased for use by the firm.
Included in the Madoff garage are a Land Rover Range Rover, a Cadillac DTS, a pair of Mercedes S550s and a GL450, along with an unspecified Lexus. Several of the vehicles have already been returned to their dealerships, but Picard is petitioning the Federal Bankruptcy Court to rubber-stamp the cancellation of the leases in order to mitigate the cost of administrating the case. Considering that Picard has already delivered letters of termination to the firm's sixty employees and that Madoff himself is under house arrest in his Manhattan penthouse apartment, it's not like anyone's going to be using them, anyway. Unfortunately, since the cars are leased, there's no capital to recuperate for the reimbursement of Madoff's defrauded clients who are, themselves, still waiting to find out how much they've each lost.

Cochinita Pibil: Sazon, Azul or ???

- ChristineR Feb 9, 2008 01:07 PM
Looking for the best in town. I know that these places, and Los Pinos all have it. I'm hoping to read first hand knowledge of, and recommendations for. Thanks
It has been a while, but i've liked Azul's version the best....you can really taste the banana leaf. I like the big chunks, rather than the bits and pieces.
I need to try Azul. So far, I've had Sazon and Curra's and I like Sazon's much better. It's moister and a little bit "fruitier" as well. I like the accompaniments better too as I like to take a corn tortilla, put some of the black beans on it, some of the pork, the onions and the plantain and eat it like that. The combo is much better at Sazon for me than Curra's.
So we tried the CP at Los Pinos last night. It was ok- large chunks, heavy banana leaf influence. I had the fajitas guajillo- and we actually decided that it was the better of the two dishes. Both the corn and flour tortillas are amazing too- homemade! Nothing but raves about this place.
I made the right decision last night on choosing Azul for the first time after reading this post. I've only tried CP at El Meson but Azul had a different maybe more moist version. Add to the fact I haven't had plaintains in ages. I would give it top rating. Also some of the best salsa I think I've ever had. Plenty of heat, plenty of flavor. I believe the chips were probably homemade and were the thicker type but with the right brittle crunch often lacking in this variety. Service was outstanding and I look forward to working this menu;enchiladas pipian.
re: ieathereforeiam
el chilito, seconded.
You should make it yourself. It's remarkably easy and better than what you're gonna get in a restaurant.

John Molori's Media Blitz
BY: John Molori
- Fox hole
Super Bowl filled with jabs, jeers, joy and jiggle.
Jacksonville, FL -- Super Bowl Sunday had its usual dose of hype, hope and happiness, with a few horrors thrown in for good measure.
Fox's pregame offerings outclassed their game broadcast team. Howie Long's "Tough Guys" segment cemented the ex-Raider great as the equal of John Madden in selecting the game's true warriors.
Long, in fact, has more credibility than Madden because he, himself, could have been on his team. He doesn't just talk about being a tough player. He was one.
High marks go to "Buck, Aikman and Collinsworth-All Access," an interesting backstage look at Fox's broadcast team. In addition, the information offered by Long, Troy Aikman, Cris Collinsworth, Terry Bradshaw and Jimmy Johnson in "Untold Stories of the Super Bowl" was terrific.
Fox debuted its new Turf Cam during Super Bowl XXXIX. The angles have potential, but as with all technical innovations, it has to be better assimilated into the game's flow.
From the complexity of technology to the simplicity of the ABC's. Aikman, Joe Buck and Collinsworth are all talented broadcasters, but they painted an erroneous picture in Super Bowl XXXIX. Listening to the NFC-slanted trio, you would have thought that the Eagles were the defending champions looking to win their third title in four years.
When Philly went up 7-0, it was as if the Lombardi Trophy was going to be handed to Eagles' owner Jeff Lurie three quarters too early.
Fox became the NFC Network even as New England built a ten-point lead. Instead of discussing the Patriots' surge, the trio plotted Philly's comeback strategy. None of the Fox announcers were critical enough of Andy Reid's failure to go into some form of hurry-up offense late in the game.
Aikman, especially, seemed to be outwardly begging for Philly to succeed. While Aikman knows the game and is a clear, concise and accurate analyst, he needs to work on his big game performance. There is a difference between calling a game in mid-November and calling the Super Bowl.
Postgame analyst Jimmy Johnson again brought credibility to the proceedings by stating that even if Bill Belichick won't admit it, the Patriots are indeed a dynasty.
Joe Cool
I had a chance to catch Joe Theismann's thoughts on this year's Patriots at a pre-Super Bowl speaking engagement. The ESPN analyst and former Redskin and Notre Dame legend had some interesting things to say about the World Champions.
On the beginnings of a dynasty: "I was in the stands for Super Bowl XXXVI (Patriots v. Rams) and the Pats chose to be introduced as a team. I thought that was so cool. For fifty-eight minutes, New England held "The Greatest Show on Turf" to nothing. In the last two minutes, it was up to Tom Brady to give Adam Vinatieri a chance to win the game. This team goes for it. They didn' t get conservative like the 2004 Chargers or Jets."
On Bill Belichick: "I could sit for hours and listen to men like Bill Belichick. Try losing 60 percent of your personnel every year at work. That's what happens in the NFL. Belichick has been able to keep a core group of unselfish players together. He told me that it would never even cross his mind to acquire a selfish player like Randy Moss."
On Charlie Weis: "He can restore the glory to Notre Dame. I worked hard to get Weis the job at ND. He was my guy. Charlie will do at Notre Dame what he has done in New England, build an offense with no real star players, and he won't compromise the school's academic standards to win games."
On the Patriots place in history after winning Super Bowl XXXIX: "I rate them right up there with the Steelers of the 1970s, the Packers of the '60s and the 49'ers of the '80s. They are above the Giants and Redskins of the 80s. Three years ago, the Patriots paid twenty-two free agents a total of $17 million. Peyton Manning's bonus was $34 million. New England is a dynasty because of Bob Kraft."
Super shorts
This was the worst year ever for Super Bowl commercials. The NFL Network again takes home top honors for their "Tomorrow" campaign. Watching players and coaches who failed to make it to the Super Bowl sing the famed "Annie" number was hilarious. This year's Grammy goes to Bucs' coach Jon Gruden with Curtis Martin a valiant runner-up.
The only other ad worth noting was Pepsi's panoply featuring P. Diddy, Cindy Crawford and Eva Longoria, the circulation-stifling beauty from ABC's " Desperate Housewives." Of course, I must remove the journalist cap here and plead a lack of objectivity. Longoria could appear in ads for bubonic plague, rickets or scurvy, and I'd still give her kudos, as well as my heart, soul and the sporty vehicle and luxurious home of her choice.
WEEI's "Dennis and Callahan" again proved that no one trashes a pure moment of joy better that they do. The morning after New England's win, the morning duo reduced the postgame hug of Bill Belichick, Charlie Weis and Romeo Crennel to rubble making a vulgar sexual allusion. Forgetting about the fact that these beloved coaching brothers are parting perhaps for good, D and C took the low road.
The day before the Super Bowl, Dennis offered some incorrect information. In discussing Philly's late night carousing this year, he stated that the Steelers did the same thing before Super Bowl XVI v. Minnesota. He also stated that Pittsburgh had three rings at the time. The fact is that Pittsburgh didn' t play in Super Bowl XVI and they played Minnesota in Super Bowl IX. Dennis may have been referring to Super Bowl XIV v. the Rams.
WEEI provided the best local coverage leading into Super Bowl XXXIX. The scene was covered and all the obligatory big names were heard. Kudos also to Fox Sports Net New England's "New England Sports Tonight" and Super Bowl updates during Celtics' games. Gary Tanguay and Greg Dickerson were excellent all week.
WEEI's top Sports Flashers went in different directions. Pete Sheppard scored big with great sound bites from Super Bowl press conferences, while Jon Meterparel tried to again carve his niche by going against the grain and picking Philly. As the WEEI boys say, "How'd that work out for you, Jon?"
Both Fox's Chris Myers and ESPN's Ed Werder filed reports from the Patriots team hotel, The Renaissance World Golf Village Resort in St. Augustine, FL. The resort is beyond lush and is the site of The World Golf Hall of Fame.
ESPN's postgame fare was, as usual, information-packed, but like Fox's broadcast trio, they made Philadelphia the main story. ESPN harped on Terrell Owens Super Bowl performance. Owens deserves much credit for playing superbly in pain, but hello, didn't New England just make history?
ESPN's Michael Irvin showed great class after being snubbed by this year's Hall of Fame vote. He offered great praise to colleague Steve Young who was inducted.
ESPN Radio host Mark Madden was horrible in his pregame analysis. Madden stated that Bill Belichick had very little to do with New England's playoff wins over Indy and Pittsburgh. He ignorantly said that Corey Dillon would be a Super Bowl bust because he is a former Bengal and labeled New England's secondary as "not very good" and "weak."
Ex-NFL coach Jim Mora did a nice turn on Fox Sports Radio's "Super Bowl Sunday React" postgame show. His postgame commentary labeled the Patriots as a dynasty. He also said that Bill Belichick's image belongs on the "Mount Rushmore of coaches." Mora stated that, despite losing both coordinators, New England will be good for a long time.
The incessant media whining about Jacksonville as a Super Bowl site was unfounded. Leave it to the predominantly pampered and petty media to unfairly judge a great city in a few days. The atmosphere was lively. Security was tight and public transportation was effective. Special thanks to cabbie Gary who saved me from my fruitless wandering on Sunday and delivered me on time to Alltel Stadium post haste.
Alicia Keys and Charlie Daniels highlighted pregame entertainment and Paul McCartney showed why he is a legend by delivering what might have been the greatest halftime show in sports history. McCartney still has his chops, churning out kicking renditions of "Hey Jude," "Live and Let Die" and other hits. He even comically alluded to last year's Janet Jackson "wardrobe malfunction" by feigning to take off his shirt. Combined with a spectacular light show and fun audience participation, McCartney again proved that music tames the savage beast, or in this case, Eagles' fans.

Clinical Impact of the Withdrawal of Nitrate in Patients With Stable Angina

- How to Read a Study Record
Chronic treatment of stable angina with nitrates long and short action is extremely frequent. In clinical practice the most commonly observed is a combination of anti-anginal agents, usually including nitrates fixed in an attempt to improve the quality of life of patients, which is not always met with success.
Numerous questions and problems are seen with chronic use of oral nitrates. From a practical standpoint, some advocate the withdrawal of medication in stable patients, while many physicians still hesitate to withdraw the medication by the lack of definitive information about its consequences. In this sense there is a rationale for the attempted removal of nitrate fixed these patients, although evidence to support this action have not been adequately evaluated.

Detailed Description:
The Ischemic Heart Disease remains in recent years as a major cause of mortality in most of the world, and also the disease that consumes more resources in health in industrialized countries. The use of fixed nitrate in patients with stable angina is quite common, but there is a scarcity of studies showing the need for this medication in this class pacientes.Este study aims to evaluate the consequences of the withdrawal of fixed nitrate in patients with stable angina class I and II, hemodynamically stable for the past six months, as the frequency and duration of episodes of angina, silent ischemia and functional capacity by exercise testing, 24-hour Holter and measurement of quality of life and adherence to therapy. For this purpose, a randomized blinded multicenter clinical trial was designed to placebo (intervention group) X nitrate (control group) in a follow-up period for 4 months. Both groups will receive three evaluations (baseline, 30 days and 120 days) during follow-up.

A 42-year-old Florida man wanted on a California warrant has been given prison time in a Nebraska drug case.
Online court records say Shane Barrett, of Naples, Fla., last week was sentenced to one to two years. He'd pleaded guilty to possession of a controlled substance. Prosecutors dropped a related charge in exchange for Barrett's plea.
A Nebraska state trooper had stopped Barrett on Feb. 15 for following another vehicle too closely on Interstate 80 near the Lincoln airport. He was arrested after the trooper learned that Barrett was wanted on a drug possession warrant out of Sonoma County, Calif. The Nebraska State Patrol says a bottle of prescription painkillers and nearly 90 pounds of marijuana were found in the pickup Barrett was driving.

Feeding the Poorest of the Poor Just for Love
Strumica, Macedonia, December 16, 2008--The tiny United Methodist community in Strumica, Macedonia, feeds some of the city's poorest of the poor on a regular basis, and a society that is predominantly Eastern Orthodox and Muslim has taken notice.
On December 11, the Miss Stone Center of The United Methodist Church of Macedonia received a special award from the city for its five-days-a-week Meals on Wheels program.
Mayor Zoran Zaev presented a certificate and medal on the Day of the Holy Fifteen Martyrs of Tiveriopol, an Orthodox commemoration of the faith of a group of priests killed in Roman times. Tiveriopol was the ancient name for Strumica, located in the southeastern part of Macedonia, one of the Balkan countries.
Pastor Mihall Cekov and Mitko Konev, director of the center related to the 13 United Methodist Macedonian congregations, received the honors.
The center, named for a remarkable missionary, provides meals five days a week to 108 of the poorest people in the city. Most recipients are persons, regardless of religious affiliation, identified by the local government as really, really poor. Friends and neighbors identify others in great need. Elderly people also receive medicine, clothing, bedding, and firewood from the center. A few persons contribute a small amount for the meals.
Church officials note that Strumica residents were initially dubious about the United Methodists providing food. What do these "Protestants"—the name Methodists are called—want in exchange for nourishment? To attend their church?
Gradually, people came to realize that the United Methodists were acting out of love, asking for nothing.
The program started with 12 people in 2001 and has grown to the present 108. The hot meal, five days a week, consists of soup, main course, and dessert. The "Protestant program" has become a model for the region. Farmers who know about it donate vegetables or cheese. Strumica is in a major agricultural region.
Persons from the Miss Stone Center bring food and other necessities to the recipients. They also offer friendly ears, listening seriously to those in need and giving them a sense of worth and hope for the future.
The Miss Stone Center continues the spirit of work started more than 100 years ago by one of the most famous missionaries of the early 20th century. Miss Ellen Stone, a native of Massachusetts, was a pioneer in the organization of schools and the training of Bible women in the Balkans, in the years when the area was part of the Ottoman Empire.
She worked through the American Board of Commissioners for Foreign Missions, which had Congregationalist roots. After some 20 years in what is today Bulgaria and Macedonia, she and a pregnant woman companion, the wife of an indigenous Protestant pastor, were kidnapped and held for ransom by Macedonian freedom fighters. A massive public solicitation in the United States raised around $65,000 and the two women, plus the newborn, were released by what the press at the time called "brigands."
Upon release, Miss Stone, the companion, Katharina Tsilka, with baby Elena in her arms, walked out of the hills into the village of Gradosorci and were taken to the Protestants in nearby Strumica.
Miss Stone returned home and spent much of the rest of her life promoting the rights of religious minorities in the area she had served. She also won congressional approval of a subsidy to repay the people who raised her ransom.
A dozen Macedonian congregations related to the American Board were transferred to the Yugoslav Mission of the Methodist Episcopal Church because of shifting political lines following the breakup of the Ottoman Empire at the end of World War I. The American Board had offices in what became Greece, while the Methodists operated within the borders of what became Yugoslavia, incorporating Macedonia.
Macedonia would become independent only with the dissolution of Yugoslavia toward the end of the 20th century.
The United Methodist Church in Macedonia is part of the Central Conference of Central and Southern Europe and has close ties with United Methodists in Germany and Austria. Partner relations through the In Mission Together program also exist between congregations there and those in the US.
Urs Schweizer in Zurich, Elliot Wright in New York, and Missionary Carol Partridge in Strumica contributed to this article.
