Adventurous NYC 'hound planning Oahu eats - help!
- MB fka MB Jul 8, 2008 02:28 PM
As I begin to search the boards, I realize that a week will not nearly be enough time to chow (and swim and hike) my way through the island. And so, as I begin planning, I thought it best to throw out a few requests for suggestions. I'm seeking to spend most of my time off the beaten path. That said, here are my priorities for food experiences -
1. local, local, local! Any farms / farm stands/ restaurants known for sourcing 100% local ingredients? Where can I eat something right off the tree/right out of the ocean?
2. New talent - any young up and coming chefs worth checking out (even if a little hit or miss sometimes)?
3. In my experience, the best adventures are often the cheap eats (NYC street vendors, hole in the wall dumpling shops in Chinatown, porchetta sandwiches on a hidden street in Rome, jerk chicken on the side of the road in Jamaica). What recommendations do you have along these lines?
4. Solo dining: I'm a female traveling alone. I love dining at the bar where you get to watch all the action. Recommendations? Fine dining is great as long as it's not stuffy/conservative. Rum shacks are cool, too. I'm pretty adventurous and can handle my own.
5. Authentic/unique - the term is the most used and abused and of course it's always debatable. But it would be great to experience cuisine that is unique to the island.
BONUS POINTS: destination food that I can bike/hike to. Now that's cool!
If anyone has any hotel/B&B/cabana recommendations I'd be glad to receive an email at olninenickel AT gmail DOT com.
It sounds like LOCAL is the emphasis in your culinary journey.... I highly recommend that you check out the Saturday morning farmer's market at KCC (Kapiolani Community College), right at the base of Diamond Head. It starts at 7:30 and ends before noon, but you should try to be there earlier in the morning than later. Excellent display of local, fresh fruits and vegetables along with lots of fun cooked items (like bento, fried green tomatoes, etc.) If you can't make it then, the Kailua (windward side)Farmer's Market has a smaller version on Thursday evenings. Lychees are in season right now.
For fine dining (in a non-stuffy atmosphere), check out the chef's counter at Alan Wong's. A really good write-up can be found here: http://www.chowhound.com/topics/531301
You will quickly realize that Hawai'i is truly a place of fusion; it's totally reflected in the food. Good luck with your adventures!
1) For local food,* try Town in Kaimuki (or you can try Downtown for lunch and a trip to the state art museum). Both source locally. Also, the KCC market I think ends at 11, unless that has changed recently.
* note that "local" has a more prominent meaning in Hawai'i, as in "the local culture," someone who is from here, and represents the mix of cultures and ethnicities that is Hawai'i.
3) For cheap eats, walk around Chinatown and get some char sui on Maunakea street, or try anything in the Maunakea Marketplace food market. Since you get it less out east, try the ong choi (water spinach), which is great with shrimp in thai preparations.
5) Go to Sidestreet Inn for authentic, souped-up local food in a very local setting -- you can watch the latest game and drink great wine (or beer) at the same time. For authentic Hawaiian food, try Helena's on school street in Kalihi, or, closer to Waikiki, to Ono's Hawaiian foods. Try everything. Especially butterfish (you can get this elsewhere to, and its amazing), a laulau (pork or chicken baked in taro leaf), poke, kalua pig, lomi salmon, and chicken longrice. okay, that's almost everything.
some of these threads are getting old, but they give some good overviews

Good recommendations have been given above. In addition to Town, I would specifically add Nico's for fresh fish, and Kakaako Kitchen for casual but good local fare.
thanks for the tips so far, 'hounds. I'll work on a real list now and then submit it for review!
1) The only place I know that makes a big point about this is town (3435 Wai'alae Ave). I like it a lot.
3) Kaka'ako Kitchen (1200 Ala Moana Blvd) and Hank's Haute Dogs (324 Coral St) are better-than-average take-out places within walking distance of waterfront parks.
4) I do this all the time, but I prefer a table to the counter. I've never had any problem, except at the Pineapple Room, where the moronic teenage girls at the entrance go out of their way to give you the worst table even with a half-empty restaurant.
5) Ono Hawaiian Foods (726 Kapahulu Ave.): Chicken or pork laulau plate.
Leonard's Bakery (933 Kapahulu Ave.): Breakfast malasadas (to go).
House Without A Key (Halekulani Hotel, 2199 Kalia Rd.): Sunset cocktails with live Hawaiian music and hula dancing on a waterfront lawn.
re: residenthawaii
As for HWAK, I can only recommend them for the pu`pus and the drinks in a wonderful venue, with exquisite Hawaiian music live on the tiny stage. I am so much more a fan of upstairs at La Mer, or across the property at Orchids. Dine before, or after. Take this in for the ambiance, which is great.
Have not had quite the same experience at Pineapple Room, but, unless it's the New Wave Lu`au, it is less of an experience. One MUST do King St. If they are in the Ala Moana complex, I would more likely recommend Mariposa, though I am a die-hard fan of Chef Wong.
Unfortunately, I can only help you with #4 & #5. For a dining experience, I strongly recommend that you do Alan Wong's chef's counter (King St.). It is hustle and bustle, but is one of the best chef's tables, that we'ver ever done, regardless of the number of Michelin stars. You have two great views - the kitchen, just over the counter and the dining room. Unfortunately, the "other" view, King St, will not be featured on any postcards. If you're dining alone, the staff will definitely see that you are catered to. If the service slips at all, just tell Kathy that Bill Hunt from Phoenix sent you and that you're on a mission, since he, and his lovely wife, will not be able to dine there in '08. If that doesn't kick it "up a notch," then I hang my head in shame.
Chef Wong's cuisine takes traditional Hawaiian cuisine and vaults it to a much higher level. He is one of the founders of the Hawaiian resurgence in culinary arts. Many of the recipes started in little beach huts and have been passed down, basically to Ohana (family), and Alan takes these to a new level.
Depending on when you're there, check to see if his New Wave Lu`au is taking place. It's usually at his Pineapple Room in the Ala Moana Center in Macy's. Do not let that location stop you. If the timing is right, you can have our places for this, "not-to-be-missed event."
Enjoy, and go slowly. Take it all in and do not be too quick to judge anything, or move too quickly to miss anything. There is so much to Hawai`i, beyond what any travel brochure can ever do justice to. The cuisine now, is much different than what it was, on a commercial basis, only 20 years ago. Much of the historical cuisine has been revived by Chefs Wong, Gannon, Choy and the rest. OK, it has been adapted, but the roots are in history and well worth seeking out.
Aloha, and please do not forget that you will owe a review of all of your dining.
thanks to all for the continued recommendations! (and certainly I will post about my chow travels, though they won't happen until the last week of September '08). I'm a New England girl through and through and I'm most familiar with our regional fare, American "bistro" dining, plus some European, Middle Eastern, and Caribbean cuisines. My Asian food knowledge is limited to a few regions and my knowledge is not deep. I'm excited to explore Hawai'i and its history through these chow experiences -- it will be completely new for me.
re: MB fka MB
You should be. Hawaii is unique in many ways, and then carries such an international infusion on the other, that dining there is not quite like anyplace else. Oh, there are many common elements, but then many of the chefs borrow on these, and use them in Hawaiian cuisine.
You'll find more of this infusion (fusion cuisine by some definitions), more in Honolulu, but there are some unique Hawaiian aspects there, as well.
Do not let the busy, international aspect of Honolulu deter you. It is a wonderful place, albeit filled with toruists from around the globe. The dining is exquisite, whether it's a tiny hole-in-the-wall, or a major acclaimed restaurant like Alan Wong's, La Mer, or Chef Mavro's. And, there are some great hiking trails, just on the outskirts of Honolulu.
Remember that each island is unique and special, and that each side of every island is different. This encompasses the culture, the cuisine and so very much more. Just outside of Honolulu, that international city, there are still farm communities, that do not appear to have changed much in the last 50 years. Be open to it all. Remember, you are on "Island Time," where no one is in a hurry, unless you're driving on the H-1, H-2 or the H-3.
Make sure that you give yourself enough time to travel the Island, as completely as you can. Plan some time driving to the West to Makaha. It is different out there and the diners and strip-mall spots can be great. It's not on the way to anywhere, unless you're going to do 4-wheeling, but worth the day. There are some secluded beaches, that most tourists will never see, plus some home-grown Hawaiian food.
Next, plan a loop trip to the North Shore (Haleiwa), then drive around the Island. You can connect back, should time get away from you, but a slow trip all of the way around to Makapu`u point and then down to Hawai`i Kai is worth the effort. Explore all the roads along the way, and take your time. In Haeleiwa and in Kane`ohe, there are some great little dives, where the food is terrific. I'd highly recommend getting a room on the North Shore for a night, so your trip is not rushed.
Talk to the locals. At first, they might not seem so welcoming. Once they find out that you really care about them and are interested in their culture, they'll probably invite you to a local lu`au.
The Hawaiian people have had a difficult time. Not all has been rosey for them. Still, with genuine interest and sensitivity, you might well encounter cuisine that 99.9% of the tourists will never know. Just remember, never get in a hurry.
[Edit] One thing that you do not want to do is leave any valuables in your auto, especailly at the hiking trailheads. This is one of the few problems, that tourists are likely to face. Vandalism of unattended autos, especially at trailheads, is a big deal. Do not leave a purse, a camera, or anything in the car. It's also prudent to not leave your maps on the seat, as this indicates a tourist and an easy target. Since I have sung the praises, I need to point this out to you, as it is a real problem.
re: Bill Hunt
thanks for all the extra tips on where to explore for off the beaten path chow. I've been traveling to the caribbean - some very small islands - and I grew up part time on Nantucket, so I totally get "island time."
as I get closer to my trip and have an itinerary, I'll post again to get some critique of my chow-destinations.
re: MB fka MB
That would be great. I can fill in blanks on the higher-end fare, and others can help you with other. There are many locals (different Islands, but Hawaiian in spirit), who know the mom-n-pops really well. I do not.

Bill - I'm interested in what little dives you like in Kaneohe.
re: manomin
We usually just stop in, when the time and the look are both right. I'd have to dig deeply, to come up with some names, but will see if I have notes on these. Usually, we'll be driving and comment, "look, we ate there 15 years ago, and it's still going great... "
We usually stop in at the Hygenic Grocery, just because of the name.
Same for a tour of "downtown," when we went looking for a friend's new home, "hey, remember when we stopped in there for lunch? Great, wasn't it?" That sort of thing. Wish I had done reviews of each, and had notes on all, but this has been going on since the early '80s. Often, the name is different, but the look is good and was what drew us in, to begin with. In years past, we've done B&B's in Kane`ohe, so we've spent a little bit of time just hanging in the area. If I can find the photographs, I think I may be able to at least give some names. Unfotunately, much of this was prior to digital capture.
As I opined to the OP, I hope that the locals, and not a Mainlander, like me, can fill in these gaps better. Afterall, what would a Mainlander know about local cuisine?
re: Bill Hunt
I have to say that living in Kaneohe with what I find fairly slim pickings in terms of restaurants it has made me a terrific cook!
There is a good mexican restaurant here El Mariachi that does
great things with seafood. Friends of mine own a B&B here and I
should ask them where they tell people to go.
re: manomin
I *should* be able to come up with the name of the B&B's, and then will do what I can to put together the spots, that we found enjoyable to dine.
While I love the Waikiki area, for dining, I enjoy both the Windward side and th North Shore for the wonderful respite from the hustle-n-bustle, that they both provide.
Over the decades, there have been a few minor Mexican spots that got good recs., but do not recall having dined ate any.
Do not recall El Mariachi, but it might be too new for me to know. What is the address?
re: Bill Hunt
45-1151 Kamehameha Hwy. It has been open a couple years. It is behind the Åloha gas station next to Saigon Noodle House and
the free pregnancy test place and the CatWalk designer consignment store. This is the corner of Kamehameha and Kauhuhipa street close to Windward mall. Very very close by is the Haleiwa Joe's which has indifferent service but the food is o.k. We always carry out from there.I do like Sumo Ramen every now and then and sometimes carry out from the I Love Country Cafe in the mall. Having lived in town for many years being on this side the last 15 has been wonderful.

Bill - I'm interested in what little dives you like in Kaneohe. I agree with your advice on leaving things in cars however common sense pretty much dictates this anywhere.
You've gotten so much excellent information and suggestions - only a few things I can add -
If you have time to kill before check-in after arriving or before your flight out, check out Mitch's sushi bar by the airport. And don't miss the Lobster Van Van if it's on special.
3660 has a bar that you can eat at - it might get a little lonely, but the food is worth it. We had a great bartendress (can't remember her name) hang out with us, which made it much more fun, so hopefully the same will occur...
I think it's fun to pick a food - poke, saimin, lomi lomi, or even seared ahi (I'm sure others here can offer suggestions) & try it at as many places as possible to compare and contrast and become an unofficial expert on your choice of food.
re: torta basilica
And I say to go with anything that Torta says. Only time we disagree is because of "good nights," and "bad nights." She gets to Hawai`i more often than I, also. That counts for a lot.

Whether we arrived in America several generations or several days ago, all of us — with the exception of the Native American tribes — came here from somewhere else. It's only right and proper to pause at least once during the year to honor our faraway points of origin, their traditions and cultural markers. If you happen to be a local of Scottish American extraction, the time for such celebration is this Friday through Sunday (April 8 through 10) at the Missouri Tartan Day festivities in Frontier Park (South Main Street and First Capitol Drive, St. Charles). This plaid- and family-friendly party features food, live music, Highland dancing and the distinctively Scots-American custom of the Kirkin' o' the Tartans (i.e., the blessing of the various tartans and the families they represent; this ceremony isn't held in any churches in Scotland itself). Visit www.motartanday.com for more information on the free three-day event. P.S. Laddies, check your kilts in advance for moth holes.

Hawaii becomes the Island of Johnny Moreau on Friday's 100th episode of Hawaii Five-0: Bush singer Gavin Rossdale guest-stars as a new villain.
The bulk of the milestone hour is devoted to a "Sliding Doors" plot — in which McGarrett (Alex O'Loughlin) is kidnapped by Wo Fat (Mark Dacascos) and experiences what his life would have been like if his father, John McGarrett (William Sadler), had never died. And it's a must-see episode for longtime fans, who will finally get a definitive answer as to the exact link between McGarrett and Wo Fat.
So what does Johnny Moreau have to do with all this? TVGuide.com chatted with Rossdale about his guest-starring role, which TV shows he's addicted to, and whether we'll be seeing any more of him on The Voice this season.

moreEmergency Medicine is not divided into specific areas of practice. Emergency room visitors come in all shapes and sizes, at any time of day or night, with a wide range of maladies. Emergency physicians need to become experts in diverse areas of medicine and to be able to make quick and informed decisions about patient care. A cornerstone of emergency medicine training is the constant drilling and re-drilling of simulated cases and clinical scenarios. This book offers a unique yet underutilized strategy for learning: a case-based approach from real patients and actual events. Each case provides the opportunity for learning essential clinical concepts. Focused exclusively on the needs of in-training emergency physicians and nurses, the book covers more than 100 common and unusual cases in emergency medicine. The procedures have been class-tested by the Stanford/Kaiser Emergency Medicine Residency Program. less

If bureaucrats feel they must sneak around behind our backs hiding their illegal actions, why not just close their frigging agencies and devolve any essential functions to the states and cities? Most federal agencies exist in violation of the Constitution. Shut ´em down.

The Obama/Holder lawless slime has spread all over the current government.I see not much hope unless Departments are disbanded and started over again with new employees..that is, Departments deemed necessary..others, like EPA and Dept. of Education..disband and bury them forevermore.

#4 - I think the lawless slime was already all over the fed bureaucracy and has been for many years. What has spread with the Obammunist and his minions, especially Holder, is the brazen refusal to hide it any more. They think it no longer matters what the general public thinks about it.It´s called overreach. It´s called hubris.And in November I hope what it will be called is a Republican Senate majority.

How many smidgens does it take to make an indictment? The Obama administration is writing a new how-to manual on cover-ups. Sadly, they will all certainly get away with it, despite the few honest journalists like Attiksson.

There appears to be no down side for federal officials when they flout FOI law to delay and obfuscate. Even in the relatively rare instances in which they are sued, they pay the legal bills with your tax dollars.So the IRS is also involved in HHS and in Obamacare. I assume that withholding necessary treatment depends on whether or not you´re a conservative or a Republican. And why on earth would anything coming our of HHS or the IRS via the FOI act have to be redacted for a Congressional committee?We cannot say we were not warned about such things twenty years ago and every day since then, when Rush Limbaugh told his audience that if the government gets control of America´s health care system, it´s over - for just these reasons. We should thank God it has not been fully implemented. Yet.Sarah Palin´s death panel has a new wrinkle; now, we have proof that the IRS is involved in secretly colluding with HHS on Obamacare.What will it take to murder this monster of a health care bill that has nothing to do with helping people with their health care and everything to do with getting rid of Republicans, either by IRS harassment or HHS political cleansing.It´s hideous, just like the people running both Agencies.

It´s not that Attkisson is that pure, the administration is that corrupt. She had to draw a line somewhere, which has put her miles above her cohorts.

So the most transparent administration in our history has a rash outbreak of computer crashes deleting incriminating evidence. Maybe the IRS can give the HHS tips on how to destroy evidence and get away with it.

Sharyl Attkisson is a true national hero. Given how corrupt this administration is and how relentlessly it tries to hide its criminality her persistence and courage are genuinely heroic. In fact, she may be in real danger as she gets closer to exposing the very top criminals. She deserves a medal.

What we see here is just the tip of the iceberg of the corruption and outright criminality that is Washington D.C. There really is no way of knowing when it started, but we do know that it has skyrocketed with Obozo and his cohorts. The question is "What are we, the citizens of this country, going to do about it?" Are we supposed to sit back and put up with it because we receive all kinds of goodies from the federal government or do we continue to relinquish our freedoms for a handful of silver? I´m really not in favor of that. I´m in doing whatever is needed to clean the swamp and start anew. If it takes another revolution, so be it.

First a Dream, Now a Reality
23 Apr 14
Edie Mukiibi
When we first set out to create one thousand food gardens here in Africa, we never imagined the success we would achieve in such a short space of time. It seems we underestimated peoples' enthusiasm and determination! Over the past few years, through the unstoppable efforts and support of local communities, schools and families, in both rural and urban areas, Slow Food's Gardens in Africa project has gone from strength to strength: Since 2010, more than one thousand sustainably farmed food gardens have been created in 26 African countries. This momentum must continue…
Last month, I found myself in Milan, along with friends and colleagues from across the Slow Food network. We had gathered to officially relaunch the project and announce a new target: 10,000 food gardens.
This expanded initiative is supporting the ongoing efforts by my fellow Africans to promote small scale and family farming that best suits our complex environment. This is at a time when industry-backed monocultures are still being developed; pushing the limits of our soils, climate and natural resources. Slowly but surely however, our growing network is fighting back. For example, in Somalia, after more than 20 years of civil war, a diversity of food crops are now being recovered thanks to the small, diverse gardens established and managed by the Merka Convivium. In other countries such as Uganda, Kenya, Tanzania and Rwanda, school gardens are providing young people with essential knowledge about local crop varieties, seeds and growing seasons; healing a knowledge gap that previously seemed irreversible.
It was with great honor that I took to the stage in Milan, alongside the UN's Food and Agricultural Organization Director José Graziano da Silva and Slow Food Founder Carlo Petrini, to announce our plans for the next phase of the gardens project. The event was also my first official appointment in my new role as Slow Food Vice President – a position that will enable me to support the commitment of thousands of African communities, leaders and activists on an international stage, and encourage and strengthen this current wave of change. In the past few years, we have done much more than simply create gardens: We have created an important network that is growing and working to change Africa, to offer our children a future of peace and justice, and to guarantee everyone access to good, clean and fair food.
This is the moment for Africa to show the rest of the world that we value our rich biodiversity, our land, our culture, our traditions and our natural resources. For us, they represent the future. I am aware that this new target calls for more energy and time from community members, greater knowledge sharing among leaders and increased commitment from the entire Slow Food network in Africa – but together, I know we can do it!
You can help us by making a donation, however large or small, to the gardens. Find out more at www.slowfoodfoundation.org

Local boy chosen as Kings Dominion reporter
Chase Mytrysak will be a Kings Dominion regular, tracking Planet Snoopy.
Visit the Photo Place
Date published: 1/27/2013
A 7-year-old Stafford County boy will be tasked with breaking news about a multimillion-dollar addition to the Planet Snoopy area of Kings Dominion.
Chase Mytrysak, a second-grader at Winding Creek Elementary School in Stafford, has been selected as the Doswell amusement park's "Planet Snoopy KidCaster."
Chase will visit the park four times in February and March and file reports on construction progress at Planet Snoopy, a children's area in the park. Eight new rides are being added during the park's offseason. Kings Dominion will reopen March 29.
Chase's reports will be seen on Kings Dominion's Facebook, Twitter and YouTube pages. He was chosen as the KidCaster from more than 150 applicants.
Chase applied for the position after his mother read about the opportunity in The Free Lance-Star, said the boy's father, Ryan Mytrysak.
They filled out an application, and Chase was later interviewed on the phone by a Kings Dominion staffer. The family got the good news earlier this month and visited the park this past Monday.
"It's a great experience for Chase," his father said Saturday.
Chase likes making videos on his iPod Touch, a skill that should serve him well in the new position, Ryan Mytrysak said.
Asked why he thinks he was selected, Chase said he gave good answers during the phone interview and talked a lot. He said he visited Planet Snoopy last summer, and thinks it will be a lot better when it reopens in March.
He said he hasn't been able to tell his friends at school about his new position yet because of all the recent snow days.

November 23, 2014
LAS VEGAS (AP) - The owner of three Las Vegas Strip-area liquor stores has taken a plea deal and admitted failing to report business income to the IRS.
U.S. Attorney Daniel Bogden says Ramzi Suliman pleaded guilty Monday in U.S. District Court in Las Vegas to a federal conspiracy charge.
Suliman will seek leniency, but could face up to five years in prison and up to a $250,000 fine at sentencing Jan. 12.
His attorney, Marc Risman, calls the resolution fair.
Suliman and co-defendant Jeffrey Nowak were indicted in April 2013 on conspiracy, false corporate tax return and tax evasion charges.
Nowak has pleaded not guilty. He's due for trial in December.
Bogden says Suliman admitted skimming store receipts and keeping false corporate records for the Super Liquor stores from about 2006 to 2009.

November 26, 2014
Thursday October 2, 2008
Some young debaters here in Charlottesville are taking a special interest in tonight's Vice Presidential debate; members of the debate team at Charlottesville High School will be watching and hoping to learn from the pros.
The kids say they watch any debates they can, whether it's presidential, vice presidential or even just your run of the mill C-SPAN action. It's all in an effort to improve their championship team.
Their coach says a lot of the things Palin and Biden will be trying to focus on tonight are the same things his students work on after school in practice.
"Making a persuasive argument, that's the key," explains Coach Mike Evans. "The second thing is being able to see the weaknesses in your opponent's argument and reveal those."
Evans says way down the list of importance for his high schoolers is style or speaking in soundbites, which we should see the candidates do a lot of tonight.
The kids say the contrast between Palin and Biden is something they often see in competition; a younger, less experienced debater up against a veteran. They say often times preparation and effective rebuttals can make up the gap in a seemingly mismatched debate.
"You need the skill," says team captain Elizabeth Hylton, "you can't really teach that. You can't teach someone how to be...comfortable with speaking and how to be persuasive. But even if you are persuasive, you still need to know the facts. That's where the preparation really, really comes in."
They say the main difference between high school debate and these national debates is that the high schoolers offer more substance in their debates. But, they add, whether professional or amateur, these debates can be fierce.
"I think it was once described to me as 'intellectual swordplay,'" Hylton says.
Tune in tonight to 19 News Nightcast following the debate as team members weigh in with their evaluation of the candidates' performances.

The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills Reunion Recap: The Claws Come Outby Nosy Neighbor at . Updated at . Comments
Bravo took us right from the The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills season finale to the reunion show last night, and one Housewife was glaringly absent.
We break down who bailed and who had the best fake out in THG's +/- recap ...
The Housewives hit Andy's couch so that must mean the season is over. But one Housewife didn't show.
Adrienne Maloof bailed and not just on the reunion show but on the entire series. Minus 15. Too bad her final act as a Housewife was to no-show.
I suppose it all became too much for her but Lisa was right. You don't join a reality TV show if you have skeletons you don't want exposed. Fame comes at a price and it's one Ms. Maloof seems unwilling to pay.
Minus 30 because the viewers are still the last to know what the big secret is and that's nothing but frustrating. What good is reality TV if we can't dish the dirt?
But on to the Housewives who did show up. Taylor's looking as botoxed as ever. Did she borrow those lips from Daffy or Donald? Minus 12. She's looking more ridiculous every season.
At least Taylor's in love…with a married man…who lives in Colorado. What could go wrong here?
Adrienne may be out but Brandi is definitely in and she's more than willing to say whatever's on her mind but I'm guessing we'll have more fun with that in part 2 than we did tonight.
Best fake out of the night went to Andy. Plus 45 for perpetrating the rumor that Leann Rimes was the latest Housewife and then pretending she was about to be presented. Very funny.
Kyle and Lisa go at it once again. Minus 18 because this fight gets more boring every time I have to listen to it. Kyle feels that Lisa's cut her off and Lisa believe Kyle never has her back.
It's time to go to your separate corners and move on.
Just when I expected everyone to pile on Brandi, it was Yolanda who was under attack.
First we see footage of Taylor saying that she feels like Yolanda thinks she's better than her. Plus 10. Um…that's because she is.
Yolanda admits she never watched an episode of the show before she signed on. Minus 15. Oh honey, that was just dumb. Information is power. Never turn it down.
Then Kim goes after Yolanda over their supposed juice cleanse date. Only in Beverly Hills do women make a date to do a group cleanse. Minus 11. It makes me glad I don't live there.
But the dates were made through production people, not directly between Kim and Yolanda. Problem solved… sort of.
The funny part about Yolanda is that she can be just as direct as Brandi, she just says it more politely and with an accent. Plus 15.
Yolanda and Kyle bicker over their definitions of friendship. Let's face it. This is a reality show. Does anyone really expect these two to become best buddies?
There's lots of sniping about who came to whose parties and then Kyle throws Yolanda under the bus for calling out Lisa in Paris.
To be honest I only remember Yolanda saying it was wrong of Lisa to continually talk about Kim, especially while Kim was sitting right there. I don't recall her really tearing Lisa apart.
Minus 20 because Bravo didn't show any of the footage to back it up.
Andy claimed there's more to life than dinner parties and suing friends in Beverly HIlls. Yeah, there's too much drinking and a lot of back stabbing too.
The claws have definitely came out on the sofa. Can't wait to see who else gets scratched in part 2.
I am team Brandi! She is awsome!
Just because she is from a trailer park makes her more remarkable, she married a handsome Hollywood actor and had 2 beautiful little boys. The real trailer trash wrecked her home!
I wish that Douche Bag Brandi would get stomped on by a camel....Lisa knows how to pick BFF's. Brandi, Yolanda who went from not wanting to get involved to being the high and mighty bitch she is and Stassi the tramp and trouble maker at her restaurant. Wish Brandi would never ever come back again....Maybe Taylor Swift can write that song.....
I totally agree, Brandi is a hood rat with no hood rat class.
Oh my gosh can The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills producers take Brandy out. She is so annoying and dumb. I feel bad for her children having a mother like that. No wonder why her ex got rid of her. She's so annoying. Her explanations for her wrong doings are complete bull. So over rated. Please take her out. She's irrelevant to what a Beverly Housewife should be. She's just trash.
Brandi should be gossip columnist, she will tell all!! She will cut a bi__! What a classy lady. I dont think i will be watching next season. It's sad to see all these friendship ending.
Kyle is such a pathetic liar. What really was funny was Kim standing up for Kyle and borrowing Kyle's 'memory' of what happened in Paris. We know Kim sure as hell didn't remember anything; she was too spaced out the entire trip. That skank was totally wasted. Team Lisa, Yolanda and Brandi all the way. Faye, oh Faye. What a horrible piece of trash Faye is. I really think when she talks about Brandi sleeping with every man every where she is really projecting. Faye is the used piece of a$$ that has been passed around from man to man. God that tranny is ugly.
Connie, you hit the nail on the head! Kyle Richards is a habitual liar, Kim is a dope head, Adrienne's spray on tan is more intelligent than her and Camille is just sad none of those four are even aware of a premise called loyalty. Faye... What to say about the most morally corrupt piece of garbage on earth. The fact that Kyle is her BFF says everything we need to know about Kyle. Lisa, Yolanda and Brandi are incredible. Brandi will learn in time to be more diplomatic when she speaks but the fact is, all three of these women are loyal, intelligent and gorgeous. It's no wonder like is so jealous she can't even see straight. Taylor...no comment. I can't respect anyone who stands around while another person is bring torn apart- the way Kyle and Kim did Brandi- yet say nothing for so long. The only women worth their salt are Lisa Yolanda and Brandi. Everyone else needs to get lost.
Meant to say "Kyle" is so jealous...not like. Dang auto correct!
I cannot stand Brandi and Yolanda is a bully - she incited Brandi to go Marisa in a two-on-one situation.I like Faye and don't understand the backlash against her. She calls Brandi out on her feral behaviour ( because no one else will) and supports her friends and people she thinks are being bullied (and indeed are eg Marisa). Lisa can't handle the truth ( that she puts up with feral-face and her annoying comments about Ken being her boyfriend - groan) because she is her mouthpiece. Brandi is keeping sweet with Lisa so she gas an ally on the show which helps her longevity on it. Taylor is crae-crae and playing her own game to stay on the show ( eg saying sorry to everyone through gritted teeth).
"Wow. I watch this to prepare myself of the people and problems to avoid as I get older. I'm team Yolanda, Lisa & Brandi, allll the way. The truth is the truth! The only problems that seem to come about, are when people try to get involved with situations they know nothing about. Then when asked about it, it's always an insulting excuse of an action that's just been mirrored. Big ups to these women who still stand for what's real and aren't holding back on calling the fake out. If you said it, did it or are claiming it..... make sure you are able to admit it when you're confronted and if its not about you or. your situation.... mind you're own business.
The truth may be the truth, but sometimes keeping our mouths shut and not blabbing stuff all over the place is better...would you like your bff's to spread your secrets all over the place? I don't think so...
Brandi, is the most discusting peice of trash. What trailer park did she come from?? Send her back. Please, I can't stand to watch, I only watch renioun shows. Get her off
I wish they wod ban the bitch FAYE!!! I can not stand that bitch!! She's the one that keeps stirring the pot and accusing people of different things she knows nothing about. She is always blaming Brandi for stuff and half of it is what Faye makes up!! I wanted to kick her ass so bad on the finale last night!! Faye talks out if her ass she makes up these horrible rumors and just blurts them out.
Did the woman in the back ground have permission to record that scene on her phone. Just sayin!!!!!

"Riveting story"
I will listen to it again. I enjoyed this story even more then the first time I read it. Max Miller does an amazing job, bringing the characters to life. I suppose I rushed through it when I read it myself. Listening to the story in a slower pace made me savor the language, the setting and the world building in much more detail.There are still a lot of questions unanswered so I'm hoping for a sequel.
Colin Bliss is irresistible as a young, naive but very intelligent book hunter.
I don't know any other performances by Max Miller but I will look out for them. This narration is amazing, Max brings all these different characters to life and he can sing too!

Michael Moore on Santa Barbara Shooting: 'I No Longer Have Anything to Say'
"Enjoy the rest of your day, and rest assured this will all happen again very soon."
Michael Francis Moore (born April 23, 1954) is an American liberal filmmaker, author, social critic, and activist. He is the director and producer of Fahrenheit 9/11, which is the highest-grossing documentary of all time and winner of the Palme d'Or. His films Bowling for Columbine (2002) and Sicko (2007) also placed in the top ten highest-grossing documentaries, and the former won the Academy Award for Documentary Feature. In September 2008, he released his first free movie on the Internet, Slacker Uprising, which documented his personal quest to encourage more Americans to vote in presidential elections. He has also written and starred in the TV shows TV Nation and The Awful Truth.
Moore's written and cinematic works criticize globalization, large corporations, assault weapon ownership, U.S. Presidents Bill Clinton and George W. Bush, the Iraq War, the American health care system, and capitalism.
Moore was born in Flint, Michigan, and raised in Davison, a suburb of Flint, by parents...
"Enjoy the rest of your day, and rest assured this will all happen again very soon."
I don't agree with Michael Moore over much, but for all his many jarring viewpoints, I find his approach to copyright and digital media surprisingly modern and refreshing. As Stan noted last month, Michael Moore decided to release the somewhat stale movie Slacker Uprising for free via download on the Internet: "This is being done entirely as a gift to my fans," Moore said. "The only return any of us are hoping for is the largest turnout of young voters ever at the polls in November.
As promised a couple of weeks back, Michael Moore's new documentary, "Slacker Uprising," is available for viewing (and download) for free as of today at slackeruprising.com. Touted by Moore as a "gift to his fans" and distributed online by blip.tv, the movie documents Moore's tour through 62 US cities in swing states during the 2004 U.S. presidential election, in which he rallied youngsters to vote (read: he rooted for the side that didn't win).
Election time is coming in the US, and suddenly your votes are more important than your money. At least that's how Michael Moore sees it, whose new movie, titled "Slacker Uprising," will premiere on the net for free on September 23, followed by a DVD which will be released through Amazon.com and Netflix on October 7. Blip.TV will host the download; hopefully, they've upgraded their servers, because the demand is going to be huge.

Associated Press
RICHMOND, Va. (AP) - The candidates for lieutenant governor in Tuesday's general election offer Virginia voters a stark choice.
Chesapeake Republican E.W. Jackson is a socially conservative Republican opposed to abortion, while Democratic state Sen. Ralph S. Northam is a physician best known for his defense of women's reproductive rights.
The two also part ways on a number of other issues, including same-sex marriage and an expansion of Medicaid in Virginia.
Jackson is against both, while Northam backs each.
They are seeking to succeed Lt. Gov. Bill Bolling.
In Virginia, the lieutenant governor is elected independently of the governor, so it's possible Jackson or Northam could serve with their political opposite. Both said in interviews that they would seek common ground with whoever is governor.

10 Lessons We Learned In Junior High…And Then Again Later In Life
Before I was a writer by profession, I was a writer by choice. My mother bought me a diary at seven years old and I still keep one today. Reading my old diaries is fas-cin-a-ting. But the stuff didn't really start getting juicy (and hilarious and embarrassing) until around middle school. Reading my 7th grade diary today, it was clear that I was learning some very crucial life lessons. Very crucial. And while I thought I'd mastered them in middle school, life has a way of retesting you. Here are the lessons I (and most of us) learned in middle school and learned again in our twenties…or later.

We Bring Maternal Instincts To Our Romances : Claudette Ortiz On Why Women Stay In Bad Relationships
R&B Diva and former City High singer Claudette Ortiz has had her fair share of relationship struggles. From the men she dated in her music group, to the sexual assault she detailed on the Divalogues and the domestic violence she's endured, it's clear that she's seen quite a bit and hopefully learned from it. During the weekend of the Espys, The Jasmine Brand asked Ortiz what was the most valuable lesson she's learned from her relationships and she had some interesting thoughts on why women tend to stay in relationships long after they know they won't work out. See what she had to say below.
The Jasmine Brand : What was the most important thing you've learned from your relationships?
Claudette: Taking your time and knowing your worth.
TJB: How long did it take you to know your worth and keeping relearning your worth?
Claudette: It was a long journey. It took some time. I didn't have a daddy to tell me he loved me and that I'm beautiful, and a lot of young women don't have that and we'll tend to not know our worth and think that a man has to tell us [those things], to know our worth, so it took some time, but thank the Lord.
TJB: When does a woman know it's time to leave a relationship?
Claudette: A woman knows when its time, its just when she chooses to leave.
TJB: So you think most women know before they actually have the courage and strength to do it?
Claudette: Yeah, and we see signs too. We see signs before it happens, but we think we can change somebody sometimes. I believe that because we're made to birth children, we're also made to see the potential in people, because we're made to see that potential in our children, and cultivate it so we can raise them to be the best human beings they can be. Sometimes we see the potential in a man and think we can cultivate it, when maybe its for the next person [to cultivate].
I found that so interesting. I've heard countless discussion about women dating men with potential but rarely heard anyone try to theorize on why that might be the case. Claudette's theory about our maternal instincts seeping into our romantic interactions doesn't seem too far fetched to me. What do you all think, is trying to cultivate a man–similar to the ways in which we cultivate children– one of the reasons why women continue to date and stay with men they shouldn't?
Have you ever found yourself staying in a relationship because you were waiting for a man to realize his potential or you felt like you were the one who could bring it out of him?

13 Life Lessons We Learned From "Martin"
From BlackVoices
Sometimes what you see on the screen is real life.
Sure we watched "Martin" because it was funny and honest, but we also watched it — and still watch it — because behind all the how-to jokes of throwing shade and spitting game were lessons of love, lust, friendship, loyalty, and how to pick yourself up and dust yourself off with a smile on your face.
So thank you to Martin and the gang. Life is a tricky game, but five fun-filled seasons of this quintessential 90's sitcom taught us how to play it, and play it well.
1. MLK Day is a holiday… end of story.

Keep Your Eyes On Your Own Paper & Other Elementary School Lessons You Should Apply To Adulthood
How many times when you were in elementary school did you think: "When will I ever use this information when I get older?" That was a thought I had whenever I went into gym class, or any other class that I thought was bunk. Regardless of whether the knowledge of how to solve fractions or the ability to decipher an adverb from an adjective is helping you out in your daily life, there are many informal lessons that were also inadvertently taught to you that can still apply today. Universal things that teachers would say in between teaching their lessons. Let's examine some of these key phrases:
Keep Your Eyes on Your Own Paper – I wish I was clever enough to have thought of this on my own, but I got this gem off of Instagram. However, truth is truth, and this universal colloquialism that was heard across classrooms in the US can still be applicable to adults now.
If you're obsessed and worrying about how someone else is getting their money and why they are relevant, then you're clearly not paying attention to your own pockets. If there's that one reality star (or multiple ones) that seem to be "winning," despite what you perceive to be a lack of viable talent, begin to focus on improving your own grind. Don't worry about their paper, keep your eyes on your own.
Write Your Name on your Work – I heard this up until high school. Teachers' reasoning was "how do I know whose work this is? And how do I know to give you credit if you're name's not on it?"
As you should know, if a task is done well, and there's not a name on said work, please believe that others who want the acknowledgement of a job well done, but don't want to do the work, will definitely take credit for it. As you become older, you become a brand. Anything that you do (especially if it's done well) should be attributed to you. If not, someone else can take the credit.
If you Don't Know, Ask Questions – Your teacher just got finished teaching you something, and then turned to the class and asked: "Does anyone have any questions?" You are clearly confused, but don't raise your hand. How many times can you remember doing that in school?
As an adult, the fear and insecurity of what others think when you're confused about something should go out the window. You can't be your best, or work your best if you don't really know what you're doing. It's better to ask questions to ensure that you don't look like an idiot, than to not and prove yourself to be.
Have your Supplies – A few of my old teachers main gripes were: "I'm not Office Depot! Stop stealing my pencils and pens!" You're given a pass as a child, but once you get older your habits become your reputation. So, if you're constantly in lack of "supplies," or when crunch time comes and you're not prepared, that's what you're going to be known for.
Sit up Straight in your Seat – Good posture is something that we should have all learned, but it's something that you might have struggled with. Just know three things: 1.) slouching isn't a good look when you're at work, 2.) it can negatively affect your mental and physical health, and 3.) bad posture can help contribute to those lumps and bumps in the midsection that you're trying to get rid of. If you want to get rid of your pooch, one step (besides healthy eating and exercise) is straighten up. It'll help activate your ab muscles. Don't trust me? Just check out this info.
Class is dismissed.

Life Lessons We Were Taught As A Kid That Finally Make Sense
When we're young, our parents are always spouting off food for thought that we mostly roll our eyes at or ignore. And then one day when we find ourselves drowning in the reality that is adulthood, one of those nuggets of knowledge pops in our brain and we think, "that's why my mom/dad always said such and such!"
That's right, they weren't trying to curb your fun, they were trying to instill values in you and raise a self-respecting adult which you now most likely are if you understand these childhood lessons.

What are Discretionary vs Staples Telling us?
- Posted by JC Parets
- on February 24th, 2014
This is an important one that we haven't discussed here in a while. Today we're looking at the Consumer Discretionary space relative to Consumer Staples. When the economy is kicking and money managers are optimistic, money is going to flow into discretionaries at a faster rate than into Staples, which tend to be more defensive.
Think about it, even if the economy stinks, we're still going to brush our teeth, wash our dishes, drink beers and smoke cigarettes. That won't change. These are the kind of companies listed under Staples: Procter & Gamble, Philip Morris, Colgate-Palmolive, etc. In the discretionary space you're looking at retailers, auto companies and other places where we spend our "discretionary" income. Companies like Amazon, Disney and Ford are all good examples.
This is why the chart comparing these two sectors is so important to us: the $XLY/$XLP ratio. We look to this one as a leading indicator for the overall market. You can see how this one peaked in early 2007 and failed to make a new high before the overall market topped and crashed. Then at the bottom, the discretionary/staples ratio bottomed in November, well before the overall market did the following March. Although S&Ps were still making new lows, the positive sector rotation was already pointing to a bottom:
You can see this chart is now breaking out to new all-time highs to start the year. It's hard not to take that as a big positive for the overall health of the US stock market. Back in May, one of the reasons I was so bullish on US equities was because this ratio was in the process of breaking out of a multi-year range.
So we want to keep a close eye on this chart. As long as prices can stay above those previous all-time highs, we have to continue to give the bulls the benefit of the doubt from a structural perspective. At times I may or may not get bearish over the short-term, but structurally there is nothing wrong with this market and I believe this ratio confirms that.
