- The website failed - it placed my order with a color selection that I had chosen early on. That color combination is pretty unreadable since its dark-on-dark (the reason why I changed colors before placing my order). There obviously was a point where I was supposed to verify my choice so I guess I am partly at fault.

About Eric Page
Health care executive. I grew up outside of Boston and have also lived in Virginia, DC, LA, Seattle, San Francisco, and Phoenix.
Eric Page purchased this house in 2009
Why Eric Page chose Phoenix
I bought this property for the views, the access to the Phoenix Mountain Preserve, and the backyard. I love opening up the back gate and going for runs or mountain bike rides in the preserve and then jumping in the pool when I get back. The pool definitely gets chilly in the winter time but I jump in any time of year, if only briefly.
What makes this house unique
The backyard is amazing. It was beautifully landscaped when I bought the place and I did a $14K upgrade, adding a fire pit and stainless steel barbecue. I outfitted it with a 12 piece patio furniture set so that it can be enjoyed morning, day and night.
The master bedroom suite is equally good. It's probably 500 sq ft and has both a front and a back deck. The front deck is where we enjoy eating breakfasts and watching the sunrise over the city. The back deck is where we enjoy a glass of wine and watching the sunset over the mountains. It's amazing that the two views can produce such different emotions.

SHANGHAI – A state-owned aircraft maker is poised to deliver China's first homegrown regional airliner and is expected to complete a bigger plane in 2018.
The first two of the ARJ21-700 regional jets have been completed for a Chinese carrier, Chengdu Airlines, and are coming to the end of the certification process, according to Commercial Aircraft Corp. of China Ltd.
The company said it has 252 orders.
China launched the ARJ21 project in 2002 in an attempt to break into the Western-dominated aircraft market. The plane was promised for 2007 but delivery was pushed back because of technical problems.
China is expected to become one of the world's biggest aircraft markets over the next two decades. Boeing Co. forecasts total demand at 5,580 planes worth a total of $780 billion.
The ARJ21-700 can seat 78 to 90 passengers depending on its configuration, with a range of 1,300 miles to 2,300 miles. Comac said it successfully completed test flights in North America in March and April and has flown 8,000 miles.
The company is targeting China's domestic market and flights to Southeast Asia.
We first want to develop our business in China and then gradually we will go to the international market, Comac executive Tian Min said at Comac's assembly and manufacturing center in Shanghai.
Comac's larger C919 is a single-aisle jet meant to compete with Boeing and Airbus. It can seat up to 168 passengers and has a planned range of 2,500 to 3,200 miles.
The C919 is an official initiative for China to recapture the value in aircraft manufacturing that currently goes offshore to Airbus and Boeing, said industry analyst Will Horton of CAPA Centre for Aviation. With such a large objective, accomplishments will come gradually.
The company has received 400 orders from 16 customers, including aircraft leasing company GE Capital Aviation Services.
Low-cost carrier Ryanair and British airlines have signed agreements to purchase planes, Tian said.
He declined to disclose pricing.
Most orders have come from China's state-owned airline industry under government instructions to support the program.
Global aviation remains pessimistic on the C919, given the ARJ21 delays, Horton said.
On May 15, the first front fuselage of a C919 was delivered by a supplier to Comac, Tian said. He said the plane will be assembled later this year, its maiden flight is due at the end of 2015 and the first delivery to a customer is slated for 2018.
Longer term, Comac is cooperating with Russia to build a next-generation wide-body plane. The two sides signed a tentative agreement during Russian President Vladimir Putin's recent visit to China. Tian said Comac is working on a feasibility study with Russia.
From its beginning in 2008, Comac has focused on developing the two passenger planes. It has grown from 3,800 employees to 8,300.
Earlier news reports said the C919 maiden flight was scheduled later this year, with delivery in 2016.
Tian said those reports were wrong, and Comac always planned for its maiden flight to be 90 months from the project launch.

Congressman Fred Upton joined local first responders in Michigan Monday to view two new emergency trailers.
The two trailers help local first responders in preparation for disasters.
The new additions also mean that Berrien Springs and Cass County will be joining together as one team.
Congressman Upton anticipates only positive results because of the joining. "Well, you know the other thing is that we're able to train the departments together using this equipment, they're ready to roll," he said. "We can all be a little safer knowing in fact these guys are here. In the end it will save lives."
The two trailers were purchased with a federal grant that Upton helped secure.

Small School Spotlight: DE David Bass (Missouri Western State)Posted by on April 15, 2013 – 5:18 am
As the 2013 NFL Draft draws closer, some of the country's top players from most of the country's top college football programs are anxiously awaiting to find out their professional destination. While you can be sure that college football powerhouses such as Alabama, Florida State, Ohio State and USC will produce plenty of pros once again this year, you can be just as sure that some of the country's smaller schools will yield some professional talent as well.
Jerry Rice, the best receiver in NFL history, is a produce of Mississippi Valley State. Our own John Randle, another Hall of Famer, played at Texas A&I – Kingsville. We see it all the time – players from small schools in college can make a big impact in the NFL.
In recognition of this, we'll run a series called "Small School Spotlight" to highlight a few of this year's intriguing prospects who may not get the attention they deserve because they come from smaller schools.
We'll kickoff the small school spotlight with one of my favorite sleepers in this entire class – DE David Bass from Missouri Western State. You don't see Missouri Western play its games on TV. They play the likes of Emporia State University, Pittsburgh State and Minnesota State – Mankato, and those matchups aren't going to be featured on prime time network TV. But if you did see Missouri Western State football, you'd notice Bass right away.
He measures in 6-4, 262-pounds and he was moved between left DE and right DE because of his effectiveness and versatility. Bass was a 4-year starter at Missouri Western who at one point started 50 consecutive games. He's the school's all-time sacks leader with 39.5 and he recorded 56.0 tackles behind the line of scrimmage and 22 pass breakups in his career. I don't care where you're playing, that kind of production is worth serious consideration when it comes to transitioning into the NFL.
Bass lacks the burst and play-with-your-hair-on-fire demeanor that makes defensive linemen such as Jared Allen so special. But Bass does have the potential to play in the NFL, and if a 3-4 team likes him I think he can stand up as an outside linebacker in that scheme. At some point it's hard not to wonder if the "small school" tag is too much of a factor for folks putting together pre-draft rankings. Bass is generally an underrated prospect in my view, and this point is illustrated by the fact that he's the 24th-ranked DE in NFL.com's rankings. Not the 24th-ranked defensive lineman – the 24th ranked DE. For my taste, that's simply too low.

DE Bass sounds like a nice late round sleeper…
A guy I like in later rounds that impressed me at the combine…
Is…DE Cornelius Washington…6′-4″…265 lbs…
He looked like a handful coming off the edge…I will be watching to see where he goes around the 4th round area on…

So you're not only highlighting a player who is not on any teams' radar, you're highlighting a position that is off of the Vikings' radar.
I can only guess that the next such article is going to be about some small town field goal ace.
By Parody on Apr 15, 2013 | Reply
OTK – Why are you so against Te'o? A year ago, every Vikings fan was looking forward to our opportunity to draft him, knowing that we'd need to be in the top 15 of the draft to even have a chance.
Now that Te'o has some bad press about something that is completely unrelated to the game and will not affect his ability to play, everyone seems to hate the kid. I just don't understand it.

Joe Webb is switching to WR.
By Derrick.G on Apr 15, 2013 | Reply
By WRHopkins2013 on Apr 15, 2013 | Reply
I don't hate Te'o…He is not a first round talent…
If he goes in the second round fine…I still think that is too high for him though…
Te'o has the media chasing him around…And that will continue…If… he is taken in the first round…That is just a given…
That will cause locker room problems…Ask the players that were asked about Harvin's problems everyday for the last 5 months…
And will still be trying to find out the REAL story about what happened ???…When Harvin left…
Te'o was horrible in the Bama game…Not just bad…
Te'o was more interested in his "media press conference" during the combine ???…Than the combine itself…
And his combine numbers were again- horrible…The guy is slow…And looks slow on tape…I do not see great instincts (that some seem to magically see)….
Te'o is a 2 down LB…Does not fit our tampa 2 defense…We need a 3 down LB…That can cover the pass in zone coverages…
Te'o made plays in college…With wide open lanes in front of him…He was swallowed up and could not shed blocks when in traffic…
Te'o had some interceptions…Some were because he was out of position…
Most were off of other players making big plays- tipping the ball up in the air…With Te'o just being lucky to be in the right place- at the right times…Not because Te'o made a big play…
All these situations or problems spell BUST to me…
The guy was making excuses of being tired at the combine…That is why he scored poorly ???…Wasn't every LB tired at the combine doing the same thing ???…
I think this guy has WAY more risk to him…Than rewards…imo…
By WRHopkins2013 on Apr 15, 2013 | Reply
Holler going on record…Te'o will be the pick…If available with pick #23 ???…
I say no…Te'o is a smoke screen…Nothing more…
By Alex on Apr 15, 2013 | Reply
Teo is a good solid Lb just not worth a first round pick in this draft.
Brown seems just as safe a pick but gained weight prior to the combine and still kept his speed up which is great. I used to think Teo was better but after watching Brown I think he is better and a safer pick.
Teo might be more a leader than Brown and also has some familiarity with some of the Notre Dame players currently on the team.
Brown can move in space I think better than Teo and has little to no media issues that Teo will bring with his past.(not saying Teo should or shouldn't have been pursuing an online girlfriend but that the media could be a distraction)
Whoever is our MLB to begin the season needs to be a leader on and off the field.
I like both overall but would rather have Brown.
By WRHopkins2013 on Apr 15, 2013 | Reply
Look at the pick of Te'o on the link above…
Does that person have the look of an intimidating ILB ???…
Looks like a guy ready to plant pretty flowers around the goal posts on the football field to me…
Not like a MLB ready to plant a QB or RB six feet underneath it !!!…

Derrick.G, about time Webb is moved to a position where his talents can be put to use and not wasted sitting on the bench.
By DRS. on Apr 15, 2013 | Reply
Now the Vikings can use a trick play with Webb on the field as a WR, the opponents will have to wonder, will AP run the ball, will Ponder through the ball, or will Webb get the ball and run or pass the ball. It is about time.
By DRS. on Apr 15, 2013 | Reply
Here is a play; Ponder under center gets the Ball takes a three step drop hands off to A. P who makes a move to the right then tosses the ball back to Joe Webb and runs a out pattern, Joe Webb then pass the ball back to A.P. who then scores a TD for the fourth time, beating the GB Packers for the second time this year. SKOL Vikings
By Champ Henson on Apr 15, 2013 | Reply
The vikings need to determine once and for all if Ponder will be any good, and if there is any position at all suited for Webb. The quicker they make these determinations the quicker the team can move into the future. Either a guy can play or not period. No excuses, no coddling, no waiting forever.

Later one and all.

The only reason I believe Frazier even mentioned Webb…And the possibility of him playing WR (again for the third time)…
Is too possibly have some team be interested in Webb for a trade…Before the draft…Making Webb more appealing to other teams…
I think Webb is in the same boat as Tebow…Both will be released after the draft…imo…
There are plenty of real WR's out there the Vikings can take a chance on developing…Why go that route again with Webb ???…
They tried that WR stuff two times before with Webb…
Also the Wildcat (blazer packages)…Nothing has worked…Time to move on…

Webb-they say he is the best or has the most athletic ability on the team. None of it apparently can be used to help the team, bye Webb.

Hopins – I agree, there have been enough experiments with Webb and it's time to move on. Why move a guy around every two or three years? Either he can play or he can't and wasting year after year hoping he can develop into….."anything" is a waste of time. He's taking up a valuable roster spot while the coaches have no clue how to use all that "athletic ability".

How about this trick play. Ponder takes a three step drop and hands the ball off to the best running back in the league. Then the best running back in the league carries the ball all the way into the endzone while Webb watches from the sideline.
That's my idea of a great trick play what do you think.

I agree with your sentiment towards Webb. You are right on in your post, but I do think he is a great teamate and I wouldn't want to see him go. That being said if MBT is the best option for the team at QB it would probably be better in the locker room to know that the team is putting the best players on the field.

I don't see anything in this article that says Webb is being switched to WR.
Frazier merely hints at the possibility.

I think the only reason they keep Joe Webb is that he is a positive influence in the locker room. I think that WR may be the best fit for him in the future of the team. I think in a straight competition for #3 QB agaisnt MBT, Webb would lose out. The WR position is a need and we need more than a few new WR. IMO

Hopkins a reminder that Spielman is a fan of the Fighting Irish and Teo is very much on his radar.
By dryes on Apr 15, 2013 | Reply
Hopkins is right, Teo doesn't fit our 4-3 zone coverage. too slow. in the 3-4 he played in college, he looked better because he had less responsibility and he played with a lot of energy. I don't think his abilities will translate well to this team.

I always saw ALOT of upside to Webb as QB but i'm afraid that playoff game sealed his fate as a QB in the NFL. And its too bad he was never thrown out there to play in those games where Ponder was playing awfull and the game was lost. He needed playing time, Maybe he would have been more comfortable in the playoff game. but when your number is called you need to rise up to the challenge. Vikings are well aware of the athlete and talent that Webb is and arent going to just dump him. They'll use him in anyway they can. We all know he can make things happen with his legs, so run him out of the backfield like they did with Harvin. Bubble screens, and with his speed and wiggle he'd make a great WR (if he can prove that he can catch the ball) And without Harvin we need a flshy guy in KR game, he could fill that role.
If te'o is still on the board when the Vikes pick, he'll be holding a purple jersey. We will be better with him, he'll fit in great with the run stop defense. I think there is a chance that the Bears will take him tho. Time will tell. Skol vikes

Hopscotch (Oakland)
There doesn't appear to be a thread dedicated to Hopscotch for some reason. I went there last night for the first time, and enjoyed it immensely, as did my dining companions. Very quickly:
1. Grilled chrysanthemum with poached jidori egg, bamboo shoot, and squid ink. A clever combination of flavors and textures that works very well, and which probably won't offend Alice Waters devotees.
2. Ginger braised duck gnocchi with brown butter creme fraiche, green onions. Very good indeed; I was quite pleased with it.
My companions had the duck fat chips (it is what it is; not bad at all if that's your thing), the pork chop (very nice, standard apple-y pork chop deal), and the day boat scallops (very nice, she said). We all had a "Yonsei Oyster," which is sea urchin, salmon roe, and citrus soy (also very nice, reminded me of the above-average items at Bar Crudo). Everyone was pleased. Cocktails were excellent, desserts were very nice (I had some sort of strawberry tart concoction with kernel corn and kernel corn ice cream, which was delicious.)
The server was very helpful and friendly, and I also requested as little salt on the food as possible, which they were able to accommodate.
Anyway, I would happily go there again. Below, a couple of photos. One is the gnocchi, the other is the chrysanthemum.
Huh, I could swear I posted about the meal I had there.
Here's a thread about the late-night ramen menu:
went in the early days before they had a liquor license.
-got comped a st. george cocktail. amazing drink!
food wasn't hitting on all cylinders. probably better now
-steamed clams in lamb/pork broth very tender, excellent broth..
-first base burger not executed well, came med. rare but not so juicy.
-covina sea bass wasn't very flavorful.
servers very professional, helpful, just the food wasn't up to expectations.
I also enjoyed the Yonsei Oyster. The fried chicken was very good, as was the carrot cake with cream cheese ice cream. Thumbs up as well for the cocktails. The two that we tried were both quite good.
The Yonsei Oyster is to die for. The best oyster preparation I have ever eaten. I've also had the burger, which was terrific, and wife had the fried chicken, which was quite nice (but I think it would be better if prepared bone in). My one disappointment was the fish and chips, which I had one afternoon and found disturbingly oily and with a not pleasant aftertaste. (The chips were the aforementioned duck fat chips and were excellent.)
I thought the food was interesting although menu limited. I especially remember liking the crunchy salad. But I felt the service was a bit standoffish when I went, so I've never really made an effort to go back.
Visited after the Art Murmur, impressed enough. Walked in at 10:15 when we realized just about everything was closing - we were parked near Hawker Fare (which had chicken heart skewers on the chalkboard so we would have stayed as GF is a huge fan) which closes at 10 but turned us away at 9:45, and Barlata closes at 10. Scrolling through the yelp list feeling uninspired I saw the name hopscotch.
We didn't know about the 11pm ramen shop action, but were happy with our food.
The cocktails were solid enough. I ordered a straight manhattan as well as something off the list. The manhattan seemed to be almost all rye, an effect I get when ordering the second drink - the bartender thinks they're doing a favor by adding more booze. Pinot by the glass was good.
Amuse! Nice to see an amuse. Tomato + black sesame. Pretty nice, but a few hours earlier we had our first home tomato, and this one was not nearly as good. Liked the BS to kick the mouth into gear though, interesting choice.
First course was "little green salad", which had strange crunchy bits and "sea beans" and almost an undefinable amount of other things.
"Tenpura" (mispelling or something clever?) was slightly different from the standard tempura in small ways, like the yuzu sea salt and a strange sweetness imparted to each piece --- like dipping in the dipping sauce but there was no sauce. Tasty.
Fried chicken was pretty awesome. The piece was a half-chicken, as one piece, which is impressive on the plate. The carrots by the side were especially good. The entire thing was super juicy, quality of the chicken was supurb, skin was crunchy, had a certain kick under the crumbs.
Desert was a standout. Strawberries and cream. The Strawberries were both fresh-sliced and "yuzu macerated", they looked a little pickled - these were better - and cream anglaise with matcha, which was subtle. The strawberry season has seemed a little light this year, so good to be reminded.
Overall - I don't think I was the best of audience. It had been a long week, I dove right into a numbing cocktail, and we were saddened by the art murmur / FF. Last summer, FF was a Thing, a spontaneous happening where you could feel a real community. They've tamed it, made it a street fare, with booths and commerce front and center. It all packs up at exactly 9pm, and there's plenty of cops. At the risk of "you should have been there when", I felt like one of those Burning Man old timers --- "you remember before there were roads, in what, 98? that was the real burning man". Things change and evolve, and something of the strange weirdness of FF 2012 is rare and fragile, and burst like a soap bubble.
Oddly, the two people next to me were also of the same experience at FF, we talked a little. We also ordered the exact same menu (except they added a burger, we stuck to our common plan of two apps, one entree, just put it in the center of the table please). I wondered if the table was a fellow CH....
re: bbulkow
We were there last night as well.
We thought the Cocktails were very good, ordered from their Cocktail Menu. Inventive and crafted well.
I think there were Ten different Veges on the Tenpura(not sure as it was eaten very quickly by a fellow diner)
Agreed on the Fried Chicken, though I still think Miss Ollies quite a bit better.
Pork Chop was very good nice texture, flavor and super juicy from its brineing.
Burger was not only a good deal, but very well made obviously hand made with a loose pack. The Tounge was a nice addition though a bit more of it would have been nice.
The only real let down was the Sweet Potato Gnocci with Chiogga Beets and Asparagus. The Sweet potato did not really come through and nothing in the dish really stood out.
I really thought the Pastry Chef is doing great stuff. Not overly gimmicky just great depth and melding of flavors. The sliced Strawberries were not great but the macerated ones were great. The Butterscotch Pudding and Chocolate Mousse were also very good. The Almond? "Cracker Jack" served with the Mousse was playful and delicious.
We will be back.
re: bbulkow
I asked about the spelling of tenpura and was told a long story about it being the proper spelling. No idea if it is true, but not a typo.
re: Robert Lauriston
This was discussed in details when I was learning Japanese. The only consonant allowed to follow a vowel is "n." So one can't even write anything except an "n" after each vowel/syllable/sound. The reason tenpura turns into tempura is that the "n" sound naturally warps into an "m" sound when one tries to pronounce tenpura because of the "p" in tempura.
re: Tripeler
If I am not mistaken, the hiragana character you would use to write tenpura/tempura in Japanese is the squiggly-looking capital L-shaped hiragana character, which by itself is pronounced as a short -n'
re: MagicMarkR
Yes, that's right. You are thinking of ん.
But tempura is usually written with Chinese characters with Japanese pronunciations that better fit the original Portuguese word. See the story at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tempura
天婦羅 or 天麩羅
I sort of like the second version better as it is more "food like"
Had a great brunch today. Lots of very appetizing choices, it was hard to pick.
Nice endive and roasted summer squash salad with seabeans etc., very original.
Bacon, lettuce, tomato, avocado, and poached egg sandwich was messy and hard to eat but delicious, maybe the one thing I've had there with no noticeable Asian twist.
Kimchi fried rice had great flavor and crunchy texture. I'd probably skip the pork belly next time.
Sparkling Bonarda by the glass was a treat. Finished with the off-menu "Javalina" made with draft Asahi Kuronama Black, Averna, and lemon juice, super-refreshing.
Hopscotch is doing a 3-courses for $30 special, to celebrate its first birthday, through Sat. 6/15.
Just went to Hopscotch Sunday for a late dinner. The warm mushroom salad was the best dish of the meal for me. Very tasty! I enjoyed my braised lamb soba while my husband thought his hamburger was fine (and he even ate the beef tongue!). The pistachio tart with peaches and vanilla ice cream was an interesting combo, but the texture of the tart didn't work for me. A nice meal all around!
Had another great brunch.
The fish in the fish & chips ($12) was the best I've had since Sea Salt closed, maybe better. Their duck-fat potato chips are a nice substitute for the traditional fries. Great yuzu aioli. This dish is on the lunch menu as well.
Tasted the house-salted halibut scramble ($15), good. The deliciious "cast iron skillet potatoes" that come with the egg dishes are creamy, reminiscent of a gratin dauphinois.
Can't beat the Javelina for a refreshing drink on a warm day.
Tried the Yonsei Oyster (very nice bite, but for $5 not sure I'll do it again) and the fried chicken. They now leave the drumstick bone in which I like but otherwise deboned. I really like how the entire piece of meat is a fairly constant thickness so it cooks very evenly ensuring that all the meat is juicy with a minimum of overcooked bits. Flattening also gives more surface area for crust. I had Miss Ollie's last week and I preferred Hopscotch somewhat to my surprise since I'm generally a traditionalist.
Look forward to returning with a group to try more dishes as well as a cocktail.
Had a really good meal here the other night.
The starters we had were refined and would not have been out of place at Benu. The Yonsei oysters (with sea urchin, salmon roe, and citrus soy) were a perfect sweet briny bite, and the risotto with asparagus, red wine and quail egg was everything I look for in a risotto (deep umami punch, slightly loose texture, perfect chewiness).
The mains were more rustic but satisfying in their own way. I loved the quail stuffed with rice, a new dish they were testing out that night. The First Base Burger was very good but I found it a little overpowered by the pickled onions. Fried chicken was excellent.
Dessert was donuts with butterscotch custard - the donuts themselves are good but not particularly notable. The custard was great, with a deep burnt caramel flavor. I'd eat a tub of it straight.
With all the other newer, hotter places opening in the last few months, it seems much easier to make same day reservations now. While it's not a cheap meal (we averaged $50 pp with one cocktail each, after tax and tip) it's a really good value.
We've gone twice to Hopscotch. In 2013 we went for lunch and it was an unmitigated disaster. The burger, the fried chicken, the fish 'n'chips - average at best, mediocre at worst. After all the praise heaped on them, we were stunned by such a poor meal. The only thing good was the ginger-limeade - housemade and terrific.
I finally convinced DH that perhaps there was a different cook at lunch than dinner - I noted that almost everyone praising Hopscotch was discussing dinner, not lunch. Fortuitously, Diablo Dish mentioned Hopscotch was celebrating its second yr anniversary with a prix fix for two at $80.
The entree was a veal chop, and I will go ANYWHERE for a veal chop, lol. We came on a Monday (by choice; we hate crowds and noise, and this was perfect -- we were one of two tables that night). We had a great meal, as follows:
Kanpachi Tiradito: lime, ginger, red onion, red and yellow peppers
The young ginger and red onion were fine shreds scattered over and under the thick-cut fish slices, while the bell peppers were separate purées underpinning the food. The dressing flavors were bright but not harsh, both onions and ginger surprisingly mild. Hardly any salt that we could taste, so we were happy. The kanpachi was very fresh and excellent; it's a great fish raw or cooked.
Little Green Salad: cress, endive, cherry tomatoes, tamari-sesame dressing
The mixed baby greens were cut lengthwise with two types of halved cherry tomatoes and a lovely dressing. The latter didn't taste like tamari to me. It seemed like crystals of salt with toasted sesame oil, in just the right amount. Whatever was used, the dressing was very light with no acid, just the way we like it. DH remarked it isn't very often he would call a salad "refreshing", but this one qualified, and I agreed.
Tenpura Okra: sesame salt
Okra fritters by any name are always welcome in our eyes, although the "sesame salt" seemed to be all ground toasted sesame meal and no salt. But the fritters were in need of something, so instead of asking for a salt shaker, we swiped the okra halves through the bell pepper purées that came with the kanpachi salad. DH and I love okra, although there were a couple of older, slightly tough-skinned ones. But most were young and tender, and we finished them off with pleasure.
Veal chop: 20 oz., burnt shallot compound butter, grilled shishitos
The waitress didn't ask how we wanted the chop, and it came rare. Not purple, but a good deep pink rare. DH is fine with this, and I'm the same when it comes to veal. This wasn't the best quality chop: the cut was a bit uneven and the meat was as close to being a reddish-beef steak instead of pale-pink veal as it could get. Still, the more delicate flavor of veal was there, as well as a nice juiciness. We pushed most of the compound butter aside; it was tasty but we preferred to savor the flavor of the veal without too much in the way. The grilled shishitos were good, but too similar to the okra although they lacked a batter coating. We ate a couple, but left most of them.
Baked Gnocchi 'n' cheese: sweet corn
This was undimpled but good housemade gnocchi, boiled and then pan-fried. There wasn't any cheese that we could taste, but there were fine shreds of sautéed red onion along with some indifferent yellow corn. It wasn't a great side, but it didn't upstage the veal, which we appreciated.
Cauliflower Croquettes
These were two breadcrumbed and deep-fried balls of mashed potato with some (not a lot of) chopped cauliflower, set in a small puddle of puréed cauliflower. Again, mild but tasty and didn't upstage the veal. This and the gnocchi weren't perfect, but all three dishes on the main course complemented one another very well.
Yuzu Meringue Pie
A square of shortbread-crusted delight: an intense citrus-y yuzu filling with its echoes of lemon and grapefruit, topped with a housemade marshmallow meringue with a well-browned top. Neither DH nor I like marshmallows, but we do appreciate a good citrus meringue pie. This was a very fine version.
Donuts & Cream
We are not doughnut lovers. I grew up on homemade beignet and crullers, one of the few desserts my mother would ever (rarely) make. The first time I tasted a commercial donut, I wasn't rude enough to spit it out but I don't think I even finished half of it. These perfect "donut squares" were just right: a pair of beauties served warm, topped with a light dusting of Ceylon cinnamon-sugar, then served with the most luscious coffee cream imaginable. It was like thick melted Hagen Daz coffee ice cream, whipped to a meringue texture. The donuts were just slightly sweet, tender with a texture in-between a cake and a biscuit. Yum!
So often restaurants fall down on one course or another – Artisan Bistro/Lafayette comes to mind, where in the last two years the entrées have definitely fallen a level below where they were previously. Rivoli/Berkeley is another, where the entrées are always been less interesting than the starters. But Hopscotch was consistent all the way through, no small feat for such a tiny restaurant. As mentioned, this excellent dinner was so opposite our previous disappointing lunch, one could imagine they were two different restaurants.
DH and I really enjoyed this dinner. Everything went well together, the courses segueing in what felt like a natural progression of flavors. Unlike our lunch, which had been leaden, greasy and heavy, dinner was full of light, natural flavors. If the veal chop hadn't been very slightly oversalted – maybe a too-big pinch of fleur de sel - it would have qualified as a 4.5 star meal, a notable achievement for a three-star neighborhood bistro. Add in the modest prix fixe price, and we felt we received a bargain meal.
We enjoyed Mockingbird a couple of weeks ago, which is just one block down San Pablo Ave. Mockingbird's dining room is much more comfortable; airier and with tables less crammed in. But Hopscotch's food at dinner, wins hands-down, at least this time. I asked DH what he liked and what he didn't, and he replied he liked everything about the meal. He doesn't often say that!
Went for a late lunch when the happy hour menu was in effect. Sat outside and enjoyed the balmy weather.
Split a couple of "bites." Agedashi tofu ($2) was a nice little starter. Grilled cheese sandwich ($5) with scallions was delicious, didn't really need the tomato water dip.
Tonkatsu sandwich ($12) was great: fried breaded pork loin, delicious Japanese BBQ sauce. It was pretty rich, would have been happy with half.
Had a few bites of the fried chicken ($17), definitely a contender for best in the area. On the bone, crisp, juicy, subtle hint of ginger I think from the marinade.
This place is a great value.
I've had the kimchi fried rice here for brunch and wasn't impressed. Underseasoned and lacking the acidic bite of good aged kimchi. The rice wasn't spicy at all. I liked the use of soft boiled eggs but I wish they were a bit warmer.
We had the spicy miso wings for an appetizer and this was disappointing too. Small wings and the skin was soft and rubbery.
Finally had a chance to try the burger (along with a few other dishes) here, and I think it is my favorite in the Bay now. Previously, I had Handlebar up there.
Report from Dinner on 9/12 ...
Amuse -- picked daikon -- nice little palate cleanser
Yonsei oysters -- Pretty and tasty
Chicken liver mousse -- some crazy umami in this. It tasted like parmesan to me, but it seems more likely to be miso. Perfectly smooth texture, and guess what they actually gave us enough bread to eat the entire portion.
Halibut sumonomo -- this was a gift from the kitchen for my friend, who was having a birthday -- the pickled veggies were all very nice, but I prefer the crudo preparations at Dopo. I wouldn't personally order it again.
I think we had another appetizer, but I can't remember now (!).
Fried chicken -- delicious, as described by others, and I loved the floral note of the chrysanthemum slaw.
Maitake risotto -- unfortunately, undercooked. Mushroom flavors were good, but this really needed a few more minutes in the pan, to absorb more liquid. It came with a quail egg, which was cute but too small to provide much in the fairly large dish, and some nice tempura mushroom.
Chocolate thing (I have forgotten how it was described, but it was kind of like a drier marquise) with marinated blackberries and chocolate sauce -- the chocolate itself was very good, the marinated blackberries melded nicely with the sauce although were not that exciting in themselves.
Donuts and cream -- as others have described, quite delightful.
Service was very good; attentive but unobtrusive. I will definitely return, but will stick to the fried chicken for a main.
If I'd been in the mood for alcohol, I'd have been sorely tempted by the Uptown Egg Cream.

SATURDAY, March 29, 2014 (HealthDay News) -- Setting the clocks ahead one hour in the spring may not only force you to wake up earlier -- it may also increase your short-term risk of a heart attack, a new study suggests.
Researchers analyzed 2010-2013 data from hospitals in Michigan and found that they admitted an average of 32 heart attack patients on any given Monday. However, there was an average of eight additional heart attack patients (25 percent more) on the Monday immediately after Daylight Saving Time began.
There was also a 21 percent decrease in the number of heart attack patients on the Tuesday after clocks were turned back an hour in the fall, according to the study scheduled for presentation Saturday at the American College of Cardiology (ACC) annual meeting in Washington, D.C. The study also appears online March 29 in the journal Open Heart.
"What's interesting is that the total number of heart attacks didn't change the week after Daylight Saving Time," lead author Dr. Amneet Sandhu, a cardiology fellow at the University of Colorado in Denver, said in an ACC news release.
"But these events were much more frequent the Monday after the spring time change and then tapered off over the other days of the week. It may mean that people who are already vulnerable to heart disease may be at greater risk right after sudden time changes," he explained.
While the study found an association between the Daylight Saving Time changeover and more heart attack admissions immediately after, it did not prove a cause-and-effect.
Heart attacks are most common on Monday mornings, the researchers noted. It's not clear why the switch to daylight saving time boosts that risk even more, but they have a theory.
"Perhaps the reason we see more heart attacks on Monday mornings is a combination of factors, including the stress of starting a new work week and inherent changes in our sleep-wake cycle," Sandhu said.
"With Daylight Saving Time, all of this is compounded by one less hour of sleep," he said, noting that regardless of the reasons, the new results may show a need to better staff hospitals the Monday after setting clocks forward.
"If we can identify days when there may be surges in heart attacks, we can be ready to better care for our patients," he added.

Scalp Treatments
How I laughed when I saw the following item on the NY Daily News's gossip page:
Quentin Tarantino tells us he made his new WWII movie, "Inglourious Basterds" because "I just loved the idea of the Jews doing an Apache resistance against the Nazis behind enemy lines." But some early viewers are objecting to his pulpy "Grindhouse" treatment of the Holocaust. As he did with "The Reader," film mogul Harvey Weinstein is trying to head off controversy by screening Tarantino's flick for Jewish opinion-shapers. Anti-Defamation League head Abraham Foxman has praised it as an "allegory," adding, "If only it were true." Elie Wiesel and the Wiesenthal Center"s Marvin Heir are also due to see it...
I love the prospect of Elie Wiesel, his hair tousled, his shoulders hunched with gravitas, attending a special screening of Inglourious Basterds...the lights dim, the credits roll, and Weinstein representatives pace inside the corridors of their minds, awaiting Wiesel's Nobel Peace Prize approving nod on Tarantino's zesty anti-Nazi Apache scalp fest.
But of course such a benediction could be withheld. There is precedence.
In his collection On Movies, the critic Dwight Macdonald records how the publicity-shrewd director and impresario Otto Preminger sought official blessing by screening his soapy epic The Cardinal in the HQ of Catholicism, "in the palace of the Holy Office, no less--for the real cardinals attending the second Vatican Council."
The cardinals were not amused. "The Council fathers gave this film the reception it deserved," Henri Fesquet wrote in Le Monde (I owe this quote to the New Yorker's "Xavier Rynne"*). "But many were astonished their leisure time had been put to such bad use." I should add that M. Fesquet had earlier described The Cardinal as "not only stupid but also in dubious taste."
I admire the frank irritation of the cardinals, who evidently were unimpressed by Otto Preminger's flamboyant auteurship. I suspect that Wiesel, should he allow himself to be enticed into a screening of Inglourious Basterds, will be much more diplomatic in expression, intoning something pseudo-profound whatever his reaction. But the efforts to elevate this film to a higher moral plane and send it out with a humanistic seal of approval are somewhat undercut by the quotes of those involved, for whom it was a cathartic romp. From that same Rush & Molloy item:
Manhattan DA Robert Morgenthau and Museum of Jewish Heritage director David Marwell hosted a Q&A here Thursday where actor Eli Roth admitted the film may lack "historical accuracy" but that he couldn't deny the satisfaction of tenderizing screen Nazis with a baseball bat: "[It was] amazing. Orgasmic actually."
Easy there, slugger.
*Wild to think that The New Yorker once had a Vatican correspondent.

5 quarry owners team up to fund Bird Road interchange project in California
San Joaquin County, Calif. officials gathered recently to celebrate the completion of an interchange project at South Bird Road and Highway 120 that was made possible by five quarry owners, Tracy Press reports.
Cemex, Granite Construction, Knife River Corp., Teichert Aggregates and West Coast Aggregates teamed up to fund the entire $10.8 million, 20-year project, which is the first of its kind in the county to be completed with private funding. The report notes that the five companies paid for the construction by "taxing themselves on the material they mine." They also reimbursed the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) and San Joaquin County for any costs each incurred.
The project aims to eliminate potential hazards to drivers by replacing a two-way stop and overpass crossing with on and off ramps. Ken Baxter, Caltrans deputy district director, told Tracy Press the new interchange will improve driver safety, help quarry operations and improve commerce.

Frequently Asked Frozen Yogurt Franchise Questions
How long are the average franchise agreement terms?
This depends heavily on the frozen yogurt franchise you choose. Generally the first term is for 10 years and then you can renew but there might be more fees associated with the renewal.
Can I own more than one frozen yogurt franchise store?
Yes, generally you can own as many stores as you'd like in your territory providing you can meet the financial requirements.
How much does it cost to open a frozen yogurt franchise?
Depending on the type of store (stand alone, kiosk, storefront, etc.) you open and which franchise you choose, you'll need somewhere between $70,000 to $250,000.
How quickly will it take to make a profit?
Your profits will depend on how well you run the business, how good your location is, and how well you manage your employees. There is no real way to average out how fast you will see a profit because it depends on the individual franchisee. Also due to franchising laws, frozen yogurt franchises are unable to tell you how much you will make.
Do frozen yogurt franchises offer financing?
Yes, they typically do offer some financing for the initial franchise fee. For the other costs, most frozen yogurt franchises will connect you with a 3rd party lender.
Do most frozen yogurt franchises offer training?
Yes. Most franchises offer in-depth training on running an frozen yogurt business including marketing, budgeting, products, and other aspects of the frozen yogurt business.
Can I sell my frozen yogurt franchise?
Yes - typically you can sell your franchise to a person who is pre-approved by your franchisor. Be careful of fees assessed during this process.

Joe Paterno "broke his silence on the Sandusky case since being fired from Penn State University." Clearly not a tell-all nor a hard ball interview, Sally Jenkins of the Washington Post portrayed Paterno as a sympathetic, sick, frail old man who simply did the best he could. Do you feel sorry for him? Do you think he deserves a pass? Do you think his age, notoriety and illness is justification to the many victims who would not have been abused had Joe-Pa cared about him as much as he cared about himself, his team, and the school.
Denial, minimization, blame are the tenets of sexual abuse cover-ups and misunderstanding. While Joe-Pa may not have known what to do then, he should be able to say I know what to do now. The missing parts of the interview were the noticeably absent questions of:


text: Monday morning dawned bright and rather chilly. After hot coffee, tea and breakfast, we set about getting our somewaht small camp in order, putting up the kitchen, the common pavillion, putting up tiki torches and hanging banners. Rolf dug a firepit (though sometime since our last trip, most of our stacked firewood has disappeared). The wind began to pick up after noon, so Polydore lashed and staked the Viking tent, though we're not expecting any serious stormy weather. Rolf has taken the class on marshalling, and I will attempt to take it later in the week, as it appears that it is going to be a requirement to be able to act as a marshal. Polydore and I wnadered up through Merchants Row, and on the way up and back visited with our friends in Axemoor and Elfsea. At twilight we lit the torches and built a fire, and were soon joined by Grimolfr. Aingeal sent Cormac out with some ladies for girls night out, as they needed some eyecandy, and we didn't see him again all evening. Aingeal and Caerell showed up not long afterward, and we had another wandering bard arrive, who turned out to be Master Efenwealt Whystle, who has been a bardic inspiration to me for many years. Between Grimolfr, Efenwealt and myself, we took turns singing for several hours. It began raining lightly around midnight, so we all retired or at least sought shelter. The rain turned heavier as the night went on, but never got too bad, and had mostly ended by daylight. Plans for Tuesday include a trip to town for supplies, armor preparation, more visiting, taking classes, and of course, more singing this evening. Wish you all were here with us. Until tomorrow, Padraig -- Nunc est bibendum. ****************** ****************** Politicians prefer unarmed peasants.

Erin Higdon arranges flowers while kicking off the Flowers of Hope program Friday at the Salvation Army Citadel Corps and Community Center.Photo by Angela Lewis /Chattanooga Times Free Press.

Sometimes a bouquet of flowers is all it takes to brighten someone's day.
At least that's what the Chattanooga Salvation Army is counting on. Volunteers spent Friday preparing hundreds of bouquets, writing notes of encouragement and delivering the flower arrangements to needy and homebound local residents.
On Friday volunteers passed out flowers to the residents of Jaycee Towers and also gave bouquets to former Salvation Army volunteers who are now elderly and have a hard time getting out of their houses.
"We deliver flowers to folks to bring them hope and cheer," said Kimberly George, the Salvation Army's director of marketing and development.
The organization launched the new program, called Flowers for Hope, this week, and will continue to gather and give away flowers every Friday through the end of summer. The team will deliver to a different group of people each week.
The flowers are donated by area Bi-Lo stores and are at the end of their sellable shelf life, George said. Instead of tossing the fading blooms, Bi-Lo has agreed to let the Salvation Army pick up and repurpose the arrangements.
"It was a simple partnership," said Daryl Massey, district director for Bi-Lo. "This was an easy way to give back. These flowers have an immediate impact on one's happiness, and it is a simple way for Bi-Lo to give back to our neighbors."
Eight area Bi-Lo stores are participating in the program, Massey said.
George wasn't sure how many flowers the team received Friday, but by 10 a.m. they had unloaded dozens of buckets of bouquets and volunteers were busy snipping off thorns and rearranging the flowers into mini-arrangements.
Cindy Hindman was right in the middle of it all Friday. She's been volunteering with the Salvation Army for about two years and is excited about the new program.
