WASHINGTON -- The Redskins offered to build a skate park for the Fort Yuma Kwatsan Tribe this week, but the head of the foundation leading the drive to build the park rejected the offer, calling it a "bribe."
Kenrick Escalanti, president of Kwatsan Media Inc., is trying to raise $250,000 for a memorial skate park dedicated to fallen Native American youth.
In a statement, he says the tribe was contacted by the Redskins' Original Americans Foundation and offered to build the park in burgundy and gold colors.
Members were told that accepting the money would not imply support for the team name. Escalanti refused the offer.
"We say, no. There are no questions about this. We will not align ourselves with an organization to simply become a statistic in their fight for name acceptance in Native communities. We're stronger than that and we know bribe money when we see it."
Jacqueline Keeler, an advocate for the tribe and a founding member of Eradicating Offensive Native Mascotry, says what the Redskins' Foundation did was underhanded.
"Obviously Dan Snyder's group is doing this very quietly partly because they want to buy implicit support but they're afraid of backlash because of what it really means. Buying cover for using an ethnic slur is really not the appropriate response," she says.
The team issued a statement to USA TODAY sports :
"Tribal leaders from the Fort Yuma Quechan (Kwatsan) Tribe invited and met with staff from the Original Americans Foundation to discuss projects that needed funding in Yuma. The conversation centered around eight projects that the tribe requested assistance for projects that improved their quality of life and at no time during our on-site discussion did the tribe object to working with our foundation. We are very proud of the more than 145 projects in partnership with 40 tribes that we have worked on and will continue to do what we can for those in need. We will maintain our foundation's policy of not disclosing our private conversations with tribal leaders."
While Escalanti turned down the offer, the tribe has not reached a decision yet.
Keeler says there are ways to repair the relationship with the Native American community.
"If they were to change the name, they would have a huge outpouring of Native American support come this next season. Real support. Support they wouldn't have to pay for," Keeler says.

I am not really sure if this is new to everyone else but I just thought of it tonight. I was trying to figure out a way to get a design on fondant circles that I was going to put on cookies. I had a childs' placemat in front of me and Big Bird was on that so I put a piece of parchment over him and outlined him with a food marker pen and then I placed the parchment paper over the fondant and smoothed over it with my hand and the Big Bird transfered perfectly. It was like an edible tatoo. Just wanted to share this.

Best soy milk?
I want to start drinking soymilk instead of regular lowfat milk. What kind is the best?
Where do you live? In SD at 99Ranch and other Asian markets, soymilk is made and delivered fresh and hot daily by Lifesoy.
re: mattrapp
Second that. Silk is one of the least "chalky". Try 8th Continent too and West Soy.
I prefer "shelf-stable" over refrigerated only for convenience and I don't have to worry about consuming it immediately. I can't comment if there's any difference in taste.
Silk: http://www.silksoymilk.com/Products.aspx
West Soy: http://www.westsoy.biz/products/index...
8th Continent: http://www.8thcontinent.com/our_soymi...
These are all pretty good and readily available at most supermarkets.
There's no need to venture to any health food stores, unless you want to, and once there, you'll find a whole world of products.
re: Nicole
I put Silk (plain) on my cereal everyday. I've tried others and like this one the best so far.
The fiance and I prefer the 8th Continent to the Silk...
We accidentally picked up a "light" version last time and liked that even more. It's been suggested that watering down the normal will give it the same thing.... half the calories, half the sugar, half the fat.
Kind of like the "low carb" cranberry juice! LOL!
Old post, but as I drink about a gallon of soymilk a day, I thought I'd respond.
I too love the 8th Continent light in vanilla. The chocolate is delicious as well. Soy slender is also really delicious and very light, but it still manages to be creamy. I've grown out of silk because I feel it's kind of watery.
I like West Soy, usually plain and occasionally vanilla. Most of the time I buy WestSoy Plus which feels "thicker" to me. I tried Silk once and thought it had less flavor but wasn't bad.
re: westsidegal
Since we are talking soy...the best tasting soy products (drinks/puddings/"cream") I every tried (and I am not big on soy) were made by Alpro (Belgian company). At one point few years back you could buy their soy puddings at TJ and Whole Foods...not sure if they still export to the US. Long story short their stuff had amazing taste with no hint of soy....way "better" than Silk....
My weakness is the Silk eggnog that at least in my area is only around during the holidays. It makes an amazing soy eggnog latte.
I know this is an old thread, but I thought I'd add my two cents worth.
Lactaid does nothing for me, so I've been using soy milk in the shelf-stable package. All of the refrigerated ones come in half-gallons, which is too much for me to use in a reasonable amount of time.
What matters to my body is protein vs. sugars. After reading all of the labels on all of the shelf-stable boxes of milk alternatives, I found Westsoy Unsweetened to work the best for me. It has 1 g of sugar and 9 g of protein per serving. I've used it in place of milk in all sorts of recipes and it works and tastes great! I haven't had a glass of it plain, since I got out of that habit when I had to give up milk, so some day I'll try that.
Asian or Chinese markets have soy milk usually daily. They come in sugared and sugarless varieties. There's also Vitasoy which is a soy drink, has a nice sweetness to it, but I wouldn't recommend it for frequent consumption due to the sugar content.
re: stopurmakingmehungry
Sort of agree. That is, among all the brands, I go with TJ's. But, the only way I drink soy milk is if it's heavily flavored, preferably with chocolate (of course sweetened). Drinking plain or vanilla... Not happening again.
I wasn't aware of a light version. I just remember a regular one and one with more protein.
I know that this is an old discussion, but I am surprised at all the love for Silk and 8th Continent... I think those brands are both awful and artificial tasting...
If a coffee place uses Silk, I can tell (if I get a latte, I can taste it).... fortunately most of my favorite coffee places use Pacific Soy
My favorite brand is Wild Wood at the moment; although whole food's brand works if they are out of Wild Wood... (btw, I buy unsweetened only)

Review about Blood, Sweat & Tears songs
Still great after the years | Reviewer: Doctor Fine------ About the song Morning Glory performed by Blood, Sweat & Tears
I thought this a wonderful album full of creativity heard in my dorm room when it was a new record back in the 60s.
Al Cooper influenced the artistic exciting non-commercial flavor of the band in this their first iteration. The later David Clayton Thomas version of the band was also great but entirely commercial and very "Broadway" sounding. If I am not mistaken they "fired" Al Cooper as they were in a hurry to be famous and wanted "more commercial material." Which BS&T certainly got later...
This song is a lament to lost innocence and the over complexity of modern life. The singer wished to be free like the Hobo and have conversation with a free person---thus he lit a candle hoping to attract a creative type.
The Hobo would have none of it. He senses the singer is still panting to keep up in the "race" of fools which the singer embraces. And thus the Hobo walks away, far away.
This is exactly what happens to those who try too hard and think they must be "the winner." Wiser Hobos will tell them to shove it.
What a great horn arrangement.
How creative.
Have fun listening to the band while it was still under the spell of Al Cooper. he also wrote "This Diamond Ring" and played organ on Dylan albums as Dylan went electric for the first time.
Al Cooper was FUN. I miss those days a bit.
So tell me, what have YOU been up to lately?
lucretia macevil | Reviewer: john m guinto------ About the song Lucretia MacEvil performed by Blood, Sweat & Tears
i have always been a fan of blood,sweat and tears,and have always loved this song,but,am embarassed to say that up until a few days ago,i did not know the name of the song is lucretia macevil,and another one of my favorites from this group is god bless the child even if it was written and done first by billie holiday.as far as i'm concerned,blood,sweat and tears set the standard,and none of the rock groups of today can hold a candle to blood,sweat and tears.
such meaning to this song... | Reviewer: Jean------ About the song Spinning Wheel performed by Blood, Sweat & Tears
This song, if we all lived so simply by the lyrics..life would be so much simpler and happier. What goes up, must come down - we will have our good days and our bad...get off the pony ride and enjoy the good times when they present themselves...for a short time things can get crazy and seem endlessly downward - one may think things will never be good again...yet, behold the painted pony..get back up on the saddle - forge ahead for What goes up must come down....likewise it will also go back up again. Life is about Trials and Tribulations...it is how we handle those times - gooe or bad - that make the true difference in life. I live my life that way and find I always end up, no matter how bad - back on the pony going up!!!! Live life, enjoy - LIFE REALLY IS GOOD!!!
So, how are you, Buddy? | Reviewer: Susan Kraft------ About the song Lucretia MacEvil performed by Blood, Sweat & Tears
I realize it's been almost 2 years since you posted your blog. I was looking up the words to this song (since I also love it) and saw your message. I don't know you, but it touched me that you were struggling with cancer. This message may go nowhere, but I'm having a very rough day and just wanted to reach out to someone else. I hope you're well. If not, I know you're missed. You sound like the kind of guy that people would miss.
Will it ever end... | Reviewer: Tony G.------ About the song I Was A Witness To A War performed by Blood, Sweat & Tears
Such a heartfelt emotional/intellectual and evocative disection of the 'monument to modern man', as the song puts it. These people who aren't much different than many of those who, for whatever reason fell into line of war projenitors before them.
Never gets old... | Reviewer: Bob Damia------ About the song I'll Love You More Than You'll Ever Know performed by Blood, Sweat & Tears
I was listening to a Marc Broussard "cover" of this Al Kooper song (I Love You More than You'll Ever Know) and after hearing Marc's beautiful rendition I just "had to" go retrieve Al's original version from the Blood Sweat and Tears album (Child Is Father To The Man)and am I glad I did...the song itself, the studio performance, the musicianship and the unmatched production quality makes it a song that simply "never gets old".....hooray for Al Kooper, Blood Sweat & Tears and (of course)the other numerous musical contemporaries that shared the stages during what I'm sure will go down as the greatest period in songwriting history...Mr. Kooper is a national treasure...so, thank-you Al...
Love this one by the original BS&T | Reviewer: Bud Tillery------ About the song Lucretia MacEvil performed by Blood, Sweat & Tears
But heck, I am 71 now and I still love the 70's music,
taken in the whole of that year, better than any other
year's music production. I thought that my preference
may have been (and still is)influenced by the $3000 JVC
system I bought at that time (along with a Corvette)when
I discovered that I still had some money left after my
first divorce (from a wonderful gal.. go figure). But I
am digressing, I know. Dunno why on this particular forum.
I now have the full 1970's music - my favorites, that is -
but too much of it was dnlded via imperfect P2P. Too late
to correct that now, as cancer of the blood sets other end-
times priorities. But the music does contribute to my being
a happy camper, as I always am anyway.
Best to all reading this usless blog of mine. It just made
me feel a bit happier to write it this fine evening.

WOMANIZER | Reviewer: Mário César Bernardino------ About the song Don't Explain performed by Blood, Sweat & Tears
I am a Brazilian lover of BLOOD,SWEAT & TEARS since 70, and since then
I`ve hearing this fantastic "Band" through its majestic songs always when
I am at home in the weekends. BLOOD SWEAT & TEARS is evrything, the GROUP
that I`ll never, never will forget, and WOMANIZER is all to my mind.
BS&T First Album is the Best | Reviewer: komaramusic------ About the song My Days are Numbered performed by Blood, Sweat & Tears
Child is Father to the Man
Go figure. Some classic rock albums will live forever. Al Kooper had a good day that day, historically. One of the best.
Blood, Sweat, and Tears work out the sound that is going to make them all very famous, but here it is still raw edged wonder and beauty. With Hammond B3, hot guitar, with vocal and horn arrangements to die for.
BS&T Morning Glory Song Review | Reviewer: Anonymous------ About the song Morning Glory performed by Blood, Sweat & Tears
I cry when I hear this song. It is pathetic to listen to the singer's needs. Relying on the hobo to fillin the missing parts of his life. Perhaps the singer is crippled, maybe just scared - who knows. Speculate on his need for the hobo.

The Battlefield Heroes Community Ban List (as the name suggests) is a ban list run by the community itself. The projects goal is to create a global ban list consisting of players that have been known to use cheats, or stat pad their accounts. Server admins can then choose to stream this global ban list to keep these type of players out of their servers if they so desire.
What makes this project different from GGC-Stream, and Punkbuster is that once an account has been added to the CBL ban list, all of the other heroes on the same account (past, present, and future) will be kicked.
The BFH-CBL website also operates as our reporting system where evidence against problematic players can be submitted for review. If you have evidence of someone cheating please report it to help with the fight against cheaters.
If you have any questions please visit the FAQ page, or sign up and ask your question in our forums.
We have a new policy regarding stat padding reports that is effective immediately. If you're banned and don't think the report meets the criteria in this policy, then please create a ban appeal.
For the latest version of the policy click here.
To help form our new policy on stat padding bans, please visit this thread in our forums.
There has been a lot of downtime for the last couple of days, this is due to a number of problems that have arose. This will be sorted out by tomorrow and we'll be back to normal. Some explanations of the problems are below.
Firstly, the back-end streaming has switched providers. This was done yesterday and caused some downtime while I moved files over and set the new server up. Secondly, I've re-implemented the back-end streamer. This has caused loads of unexpected problems, I've been fixing them most of the day but it's still not stable. To stop the downtime continuing I will be switching back to the old implementation as soon as possible. The new implementation aims to improve performance and to reduce the amount of crashing - however right now it has had the opposite affect!
Sorry if this has affected the number of hackers in your servers but I assure you the streaming will be back to normal by tomorrow. -SD149
I'm currently modifying how the streaming works quite drastically - the service will be intermittent for most of today.

philipmerrill commented on the blog post The Roundup for January 29th, 2014
Cool of you to ask / follow-up. My main complaint would be odd typos including when you forget a link (rare) or when the import of the news gets garbled. This is a skill that takes time, dedication, and recommitment since it is frustrating. I have resisted leaving notes in comments. Just hang in there and keep improving. Your eye will get super.
As far as length, I still feel that some of your news under a category could be combined into something that had multiple links and made it all more digestible. Sometimes when you interject your own take that can make things more digestible too. Feel free to reach out [email at dKos philipmerrill] if you would like more feedback. But mostly, keep developing. It is a process and you are well on your way.
philipmerrill commented on the blog post The Roundup for December 30th, 2013
Since you asked for feedback … I commend you on the breadth of what you cover but point out that it's a bit of a chore to go through all of it. My personal preference somewhat dislikes having The Onion headlines mixed in without warning, and the Truth-out, Alternet, Counterpunch stories strike me as a bit too many. You've done a great job with selection, but I treat their coverage with some slight suspicion, so I wish I didn't have to go through sooo many on your list. Also, a few of your typos are more dreadful than others and several times I've clicked on a story because a typo or omitted word left me baffled. As for your predecessors, David Dayen was of course incomparable with his brief analyses, the discontinued emptywheel effort was helpful and I miss it but it was more boring than Dayen's, fatster was able and fun and I freaked out in the hiatus before you came aboard (but fatster was never a match for Dayen or Wheeler). You have your own voice and it seems to me you're still getting your legs under you. What would be ideal for me is something slightly more condensed with a little more comment from you. Sometimes a few of these stories could be put under one description as separate links to different aspects. And sometimes more than one of your one-liners really refer to the same content being covered but are annoyingly separated. But three cheers for you and the job you are doing. I think you've gone from Point A to Point B, so my remarks are intended to suggest a Point C you might aim for. [dailykos username philipmerrill]

What we learned on 'Cosmos: A Spacetime Odyssey' last night – "Sisters of the Sun"| April 28, 2014 at 4:10 AM EST
Have you ever heard of Anna Jump Cannon? No? That's what we thought.
'Cosmos: A Spacetime Odyssey' Recap "Sisters of the Sun"
Our relationship with the stars years ago were far more personal because our lives depended on them. We used to actually, you know, SEE them in the sky.
In fact, we used to be connected by the stars. We would see patterns and we saw that these motions in the stars coincided with changes on the Earth.
The Pleides have a couple of origin stories. One involves Odin being a total jerk.
Annie Jump Cannon, Henrietta Swan Levin and Cecilia Payne are three names you should know, but you probably have never heard of.
Anna Jump Cannon led Pickering's team to catalog 1/4 million stars.
Henrietta Leavitt discovered the law to measure distances to stars and size of cosmos.
A newborn star is about 5 million years old. A toddler star is about 100 million years old.
Stars are formed from the gas and dust of interstellar clouds. (Dark patches in the Milky Way are the result of interstellar dust.)
Most familiar constellations are a mix of near and far stars of various degrees of brightness.
Most stars in our night sky orbit around celestial companions.
The native Australians found constellations in the absence of stars.
In a billion years, the sun will be 10% brighter. And that will indeed affect our Earth, even if you think it's a small margin.
The sun will eventually go out and collapse like a souffle. The core will grow smaller and the surface is getting larger. Ergo, collapse.
Which fact above blows your mind the most?

5 Things You Didn't Know ... FBR Open
GOLF.com goes inside the numbers to reveal interesting facts about the key players at the 2008 FBR Open.
Holmes Loves Phoenix
If you watched the television broadcast of the FBR Open, you surely heard commentators talk about the "Valley effect." Simply put, many seemingly straight putts on Scottsdale courses tend to break away from Pinnacle Peak (the area's highest point) and down the valley toward the city of Phoenix. J.B. Holmes seems to be very aware of this phenomenon; his putting average at 2008 FBR Open was 1.608 per green (tying him for second best for the week). In 2006, when Holmes won the event, his putting average was 1.66. During his winless 2007 season, his putting average was 1.796 (121st on the Tour).

Lekoma, It is that point in the winter up here that I wished I lived else were. When I retire I will spend a few winter months in FLorida.
I noticed last spring that dandelions were the first to grow. I just ordered 10,000 dandelion seeds and when they get here I am going to throw down about half of them right on the snow. I have an area all fenced off for them. I am hoping they grow like weeds.
Lovely Dina! My gardening's a bit stalled until we re-fence, now that we have an inquisitive pup ;)
Hi everyone! I am so happy I've started my vegetable garden this year!
It helps me when I was vegan and it helps me now, I am on raw diet only a second month.
We also had had a snow here in New England but I still have a lot of greens, asian cabbages, bok choy, swiss chard, collard and mustard. All I need for green salads.
Good Luck to Sunny Florida!
Hi Lekoma you are so lucky with your climate, i'm making gardens @ moment ground is so hard & stony here so i just put a layer of cardboard or paper & cover with horse poops add old straw or hay & top with well rotted manure cover with plastic & hopefully in spring will uncover beautiful soil! I've got some winter spinach & corn salad growing that is if slugs don't get em first & i've ordered some strawberry plants & am going to try sowing my peas at end of month to Hopefully get an early crop in April Roll on spring it's all wind & rain here at moment but that's Wales plenty of soggy wet weather.
Hi Lekoma. I'm just coming out of hibernation. Its been a long, cold winter. Today my husband and I walked around the yard and made plans for the next few months. Two new plum trees and a bee garden are in the works. Plus we are starting to get the soil prepped for planting. Exciting times.
Your summer has been amazing. I have been following though not participating(i'm like a sloth in the winter!). Are you lovin Florida?
And, if you don't mind me asking-what wheelchair?
Every morsel counts. The body knows when something is grown locally with love. Go out and love on the peas and thank them and ask for more. BTW ask the critters to leave them alone.
Did you just pop them into your mouth or did you create something with a recipe?
I like to make samosas with my peas and cauliflower
Great info Lekoma,thanks!

It's Mine Lyrics - Kate Havnevik
Tell me who I used to be
Was it always you and me
Oblivion, it keeps me pure
You know too much to be so sure
Stranger, lover is it so
Do I know you?
Lover, strange I never know
Should I love you?
It's mine
Just look at the state of you
Days in orbit passing through
How can I know if it's true
Forgetting makes forever new
It's mine
This love is mine

So, you maybe asking yourself if Lolo Jones has "Silvaed" a woman, why isn't this all over the news? According to Fox Sports Tonight Radio Host Amy Van Dyken (Rob Dibble is her co-host by the way) it is being covered up. Go to 34:10 of the show to hear the story. To be fair to Lolo, Van Dyken doesn't reveal how she got this information or who her source was. That leads me to believe that either… They are doing a very good job of covering this up. Or Someone is trying to make Lolo look bad. Because, Lolo has been known to lie and do a lot of suspect things, her credibility isn't the best, but we would need someone to corroborate the story before throwing her under the bus. If it is true, this is just another example of Lolo, getting a Lolo pass from the media.

The Wonders Child Care Center was rebidding for its longtime space in North Chevy Chase Elementary School in May 2012 when things went awry.
A school staff member of the committee that judged if Wonders would retain the space happened to be a former parent who had had a legal dispute with the Chevy Chase-based nonprofit. The scores from six members of the committee, on a 100-point scale, were 100, 100, 88, 85, 81 and 50, according to a complaint submitted in a memo by County Councilmember Hans Riemer.
Wonders lost the rebid by a reported four points, according to Executive Director Joanne Hurt, and was given the following feedback: "We should have worn matching shirts because people like to know who the providers are," Hurt told BethesdaNow.com.
Some who provide before and after school child care for kids in Montgomery County school buildings, including the owner of the group that won the North Chevy Chase bid, say the county's process for selecting which operators get school space is unfair and riddled with inconsistencies.
More pressing, they say, is that the flawed process is leading to lower quality child care.
Ginny Gong, head of the county department that administers the selection process, adamantly defended it — as Riemer and providers like Hurt push for new regulations.
New Bidding Process Brings Controversy
The Community Use of Public Facilities (CUPF), with oversight from its governing board (known as the Interagency Coordinating Board, or ICB) has assisted county elementary and middle schools with the selection of before and after care childcare providers since the mid-1980s, according to finance team program manager Liz Habermann.
Gong, executive director of the CUPF, said the department decided to create a new process in 2007 to give other providers an opportunity.
The CUPF and ICB, which act essentially as a leasing agent for county school facilities, renting out child care space as well as gyms and playing fields, oversaw a process in which committees from each school interviewed the incumbent provider and those wishing to take over at the school.
Those committees were generally made up of the school's principal or an assistant administrator, a parent of a child under the incumbent provider's care, a building services manager and perhaps other parents and school staff.
"We oversaw it. We made sure it followed best procurement practices. The mechanisms were in place working closely with the principals to help them create their own committees," Gong said. "Some providers were at schools for more than 25 years. The [ICB] felt we needed a procurement process that would open up opportunities to others and if the provider was doing a great job, they'll be reselected. It's as simple as that."
On May 18, 2012, eight days after its failed interview, Wonders Child Care announced its was appealing the decision to Gong because of the committee member's "bias" that "was apparent during the committee's work." Hurt also claimed the committee member never disclosed her previous legal issue with Wonders and that the North Chevy Chase principal, Renee Stevens, helped circulate "an anonymous letter to the community disparaging Wonders."
Wonders sued. Hurt said the nonprofit dropped the suit to allow Bar-T, a bigger for-profit provider that had lost school sites, to continue with its suit.
The result was a Montgomery County Circuit Court decision that found the new ICB bidding system was not the legal way to conduct the process and that state law assigned the responsibility to each local Board of Education. In January 2013, the Montgomery County Board of Education punted the responsibility back to ICB, passing a resolution to delegate authority to the department.
Out of that, a work group including Gong, Hurt and other stakeholders was created that is still ironing out draft regulations to be debated and finalized by the County Council.
A Long List Of Complaints
Bob Sickels, owner of Wheaton-based Kids After Hours, is one of the child care providers who benefited the most from the new rebidding process. Sickels said he has expanded from before and after school programs in 12 schools to 19 schools, including at North Chevy Chase, where Kids After Hours beat out Wonders in 2012.

The Arcata Police Department will conduct a sobriety/drivers license checkpoint tonight in the downtown area of Arcata from 8 p.m. to 2 a.m.
Impaired driving has been identified as one of the greatest threats to public safety. Statistics show that every day, almost 30 people in the United States die in motor vehicle crashes that involve an alcohol-impaired driver. This amounts to one death every 48 minutes. The annual cost of alcohol-related crashes in the U.S. totals more than $51 billion.
Through proactive efforts such as sobriety check points, the APD hopes to reduce the impact of impaired drivers on the citizens of Arcata.

Raw Nut Burger
1 cup soaked walnuts
1/4 cup sundried tomatoes, soaked
1/2 jalapeno (optional)
1 clove garlic
Salt and pepper, to taste
1 tablespoon miso
1 teaspoon cayenne (optional)
Water, as needed
1) In a food processor bowl fitted with a metal blade, combine all ingredients. Pulse to combine. Not too chunky and not too pasty. This is where you may need some water if it is too dry. It depends how well you drained your tomatoes and nuts.
2) Form into patties and place on a nonstick dehydrator sheet. Dry for about 45 minutes. Serve on your favorite raw bread or lettuce and all the fixins!
Source of recipe: I made this up.
this sounds delicious but I don't have a dehydrator, nor do I plan on getting one..would it also work in the oven on a low setting? would the time be similar?
these were pretty good. Mine didn't end up sticking together well, but I'm not sure if maybe I didn't grind up the ingredients well enough or if I didn't leave it on the D long enough...I doubt it was the recipe's fault, but my own dumb fault.
Whether or not they stuck together they were frackin' TASTY. I used an entire jalapeno, instead of 1/2, I also used some onion (maybe that's why they didn't stay together?) and I didn't have miso so I used some soy sauce instead.
I can't remember what I all spiced it with. Probably cayenne and cumin!
Anyway, very good, and I ate them with avocado fries!

Lunch at Somerset
Now that it is open, I thought I would try it out before suggesting it to friends for weekend brunch. It was very quiet at noon, with just one other table in the restaurant, though eventually more people filtered in and chose a table in the lovely patio out back. The owners did a nice job with the old King Shang space (though I miss sitting at a table in the front window at King Shang with pea sprouts and salt and pepper prawns)--you now enter into the main dining room, instead of the somewhat awkward doorway into the bar. The decor is simple wood paneling and yellow painted walls, with some skylights overhead to lighten what used to be a somewhat dank room.
I had a small bowl of corn-poblano soup. It was delicious, with a definite not-too-sweet corn flavor and a nice little kick at the back of the throat from the roasted poblanos. The garnish of tortilla strips and queso fresco played nicely off the creamy texture and slight heat of the soup. For a small portion, it was somewhat large, so even though I finished it, I cursed myself for also ordering a sandwich.
But I can take my punishment like a woman. I ate half the sandwich and all of the salad it came with. The sandwich was a grilled eggplant with roasted peppers and escarole, a sun-dried tomato spread (I think...) and mozzarella cheese. It was good, though the stringiness of the escarole made it difficult to confine it to a single bite--I was grateful then that there so few people in the dining room, and the kitchen had a door on it, as a large, wilted escarole leaf was dragged out of the sandwich and dangled from my mouth as I tried to either tear it with my teeth or surreptitiously shovel it into my mouth. Delicately, of course. The sandwich was good, but the obvious, um, loading problems made it a little unmanageable. It was almost a good thing that the juice from the vegetables eventually caused the focaccia to crumble somewhat--I put the sandwich back on the plate and switched to a knife and fork.
The sandwich comes with choice of green salad, potato chips, fries, broccoli salad, and maybe another choice or two, but I went with the broccoli. It was lightly steamed--the perfect texture for this salad, I thought, not too soft and not too crunchy either--and lightly dressed with a creamy, garlicky dressing, crumbled bacon and minced red onion. It was described as "spicy", though I didn't detect any noticeable heat. It was very garlicky--but I liked that.
They have a full bar, but I just had a nice iced tea, and left full and happy. The service was attentive and friendly--though there weren't a lot of occupied tables, so who knows what could happen at the height of the brunch rush hour. Still, I look forward to trying it for brunch. I didn't have a lot of time to look at the brunch menu, though it of course includes the lemon ricotta pancakes, as well as the usual variety of egg dishes.
5912 College Avenue (2 blocks north of Rockridge BART)
Oakland, baby!
My husband & I were there 2 weekends ago and it was madness. The staff was running all over the place, there were not enough of them, and they were confused. There were many open tables but the staff was so in disarray that there was a huge line out the door of 10-12 people because no one had the time to seat them in between running food, paying tabs, filling water. There is a outdoor back patio, but we didn't sit out there.
We had a curried tofu scrambler w/ hash browns and a smoked trout hash with artichokes, dill, tomatoes and many other great veggies, tropical iced tea, and mimosa. $40 total, which is a little steep for my brunch. It was good but not stellar. Figured we'd wait for them to get smoothed out before trying again. Would like to try the lemon ricotta pancakes. Lots of people were having benedicts. Also would like to try out the bar some night.
re: kimchee
Another brunch place that does wonderful lemon-ricotta pancakes is Cock-A-Doodle, on Washington between 7th & 8th Streets, in Old Oakland.
as Miss Millie's in SF, it was one of the stellar brunch places known for quality of food, huge portions, and service. I hope and assume they;ll get the service under control. I can't wait to try it out. their lemon ricotta pancakes are to die for but my favorite item was their homemade whole wheat english muffin
I've been there for brunch twice, once with someone who frequented Miss Millie's. There are definitely service issues, all of the servers seem new and a little confused, but hopefully that will work its way out. My friend who had been to Miss Millie's said that the portions are a little smaller than they used to be. Both times the food was good, I had the lemon ricotta pancakes the first time, and those were excellent, and then I had the egg scramble. They do need to work out the service problems, though.
Also, a small thing, they really need to move the menu outside from where it is, because people standing there to look at it completely block the door, and make going in and out kind of a logjam.
I've had brunch there twice now--it definitely shows promise. Service improved from the first trip to the second, but could improve a bit more.
First breakfast I had the figs with pears, blue cheese and pear--they were yummy. But the real star was the hot farro cereal, with maple, creme fraiche, raisins, pecans and butternut squash. Outstanding. My friend had the baked eggs, which was a daunting portion. A little on the salty side, but yummy.
Second visit my companion and I split a cinnamon roll, which was fine. I had the bacon leek scramble. Again, the portion was huge, and it was kind of salty, but I like salt, so I happily ate most of it.
Next time I'm getting the cereal again. I never would have thought I'd like squash in my breakfast cereal. Good to know.
All in all, a welcome addition to the neighborhood. I'm looking forward to trying dinner.
re: singleguychef
The two times I've been there to brunch it hasn't been that crowded, but I think that word is spreading a little. I don't think you have to worry about a crowd, though.
I finally went to Somerset last weekend and it's now going to be a regular place for brunch in the neighborhood. If any of you haven't tried this yet, you have to go now and taste the Meyer Lemon Ricotta Crepes! I loved it! I think it might be seasonal sense it seems like Somerset's menu is seasonal. So you should go for it now while they have it. The cheese was so creamy and it came in two large portions. (You can see a picture and read my full review on my blog: http://singleguychef.blogspot.com/200... ) It's weird that it was listed as a starter. I think if you go with a friend, there's enough to share with two people and you should ask that it be brought at the end of the meal for dessert!
I ate at Somerset twice last weekend and both visits were wonderful. On Friday, I had the lemon ricotta pancakes, which were just as great as I had heard. On Sunday, I had the biscuits and gravy. It was an oddly healthy version (or relatively healthier) - tender smallish biscuits topped with sauteed spinach and a rich, dark sausage and mushroom gravy. Had the excellent roasted root vegetables on the side. Coffee great too. The Dive-ster had the smoked trout hash, which was very fresh-tasting and kind of light (not a fan of the big bread toast, though). Great neighborhood spot.
Just had dinner there and everything was very good. The chicken pot pie was the best I've ever had, the minestrone was excellent. Had breakfast there two weeks before and equally as good. The portions are large, so two can split. Recommended as one of the best in the area. A nice addition indeed.

President Obama, answer the freaken question!
Was our Supreme Court joking when it said . . .
State inspection laws, health laws, and laws for regulating the internal commerce of a State, and those which respect turnpike roads, ferries, &c. are not within the power granted to Congress? See, Justice John Marshall in Gibbons v. Ogden, 1824
And how about Justice Barbour, was he joking when confirming the various united State's retained authority over the subject of health laws when he referenced the above case in New York v. Miln, 1837, and stated: "Inspection laws, quarantine laws, health laws of every description, as well as laws for regulating the internal commerce of a state and those which respect turnpike roads, ferries, &c., are component parts of this mass."
And was our Supreme Court lying almost 100 years later when emphatically declaring, "Direct control of medical practice in the states is obviously beyond the power of Congress." _ Linder v. United States, 1925
Come now Mr. President, surely you must know our founding fathers were in total harmony when delegating a limited number of powers to Congress which are eloquently articulated in Federalist No. 45
"The powers delegated by the proposed Constitution to the federal government are few and defined. Those which are to remain in the State governments are numerous and indefinite. The former will be exercised principally on external objects, as war, peace, negotiation, and foreign commerce; with which last the power of taxation will, for the most part, be connected.
The powers reserved to the several States will extend to all the objects which, in the ordinary course of affairs, concern the lives, liberties, and properties of the people, and the internal order, improvement, and prosperity of the State.
Tell us Mr. President, were you not taught in law school that the above expressed intentions were given legal force and effect when the Ninth and Tenth Amendments to our Constitution were adopted by the various United States?
And were you also asleep in class Mr. President when your law professor cited our Supreme Court which confirmed our federal government's powers are tethered to a written Constitution that delegates defined and limited powers? The Court stated:
"The government of the United States is of the latter description. The powers of the legislature are defined and limited; and that those limits may not be mistaken or forgotten, the constitution is written. To what purpose are powers limited, and to what purpose is that limitation committed to writing; if these limits may, at any time, be passed by those intended to be restrained? The distinction between a government with limited and unlimited powers is abolished, if those limits do not confine the persons on whom they are imposed, and if acts prohibited and acts allowed are of equal obligation. It is a proposition too plain to be contested, that the constitution controls any legislative act repugnant to it; or, that the legislature may alter the constitution by an ordinary act.
Between these alternatives there is no middle ground. The constitution is either a superior, paramount law, unchangeable by ordinary means, or it is on a level with ordinary legislative acts, and like other acts, is alterable when the legislature shall please to alter it.
If the former part of the alternative be true, then a legislative act contrary to the constitution is not law: if the latter part be true, then written constitutions are absurd attempts, on the part of the people, to limit a power in its own nature illimitable.
Certainly all those who have framed written constitutions contemplate them as forming the fundamental and paramount law of the nation, and consequently the theory of every such government must be, that an act of the legislature repugnant to the constitution is void." ____ MARBURY v. MADISON, 5 U.S. 137 (1803)
Seems to me Mr. President you want the Supreme Court giving deference to a legislative act rather than our Constitution, in spite of its members having taken an oath to support "this Constitution". Were you not taught in law school that a legislative act which impinges upon a fundamental right, which certainly would include the right of an individual to make their own choices and decisions regarding their health care needs, are presumptively unconstitutional, and the burden of proof is upon those who propose the law?
But aside from that, Mr. President, I have a fundamental question which you ought to be able to answer. When have the American People debated granting power to Congress to enter their States and tax for, spend on and regulate their health care needs and choices, and then, as required under Article V of our Constitution, given their consent to such power by a three fourths approval of the Legislatures of the several States, or by Conventions in three fourths thereof? I dare say Mr. President, the answer is never! As a matter of fact Mr. President, a majority of the States have officially rejected your despotic proposed health insurance plan by filing suite against it in our Courts, and, a majority of the American People, as almost every poll has established, likewise reject the adoption and enforcement of your "Obamacare". So tell us Mr. President, how does Obamacare gain constitutional legitimacy when consent of the governed has not, and cannot at this time be obtained as outlined under Article V of our Constitution?
Federal health care by consent of the governed (Article 5) our amendment process. Tyranny by a majority vote in Congress or a Supreme Court's majority vote!
I think people would be shocked(well, I wouldn't) to know how little Obama really knows about the law and really anything involved with our Constitution. He has been a career mouthpiece for liberal causes which doesn't require advanced knowledge about those things.
Our President is the equivalent of a giant "sock puppet" with George Soros' hand up his back making him say leftist things about the Constitution.
"If you want a vision of the future, imagine a boot stamping on a human face - forever."
"War is peace. Freedom is slavery. Ignorance is strength."
"In a time of universal deceit - telling the truth is a revolutionary act."
George Orwell
Obama simply wants to be the one wearing the "boot".
Obama Administration Drops Legal Defense of Marriage Act - ABC ...
Corrupt or a tyrant?

What a wonderful, idiosyncratic book Weinberger has written. I say book, but the closest comparison I could make to other works being published right now are from Sylph Edition's "Cahiers Series"—short pamphlet-like meditations by notable writers such as Ann Carson, Elfriede Jelinek, and László Krasznahorkai among the architects, playwrights, painters, and philosophers. Weinberger certainly belongs in such company; anything he writes can be assumed to be interesting, different, intellectually engaging. The essay collections he writes—and Elsewhere can be considered to be an extended meditation/essay—puts him as well alongside Rebecca Solnit, Lawrence Weschler, Sven Birkets, and Ilan Stavans.
Elsewhere consists of poems, all in translation, by writers of the Modernist era (by Weinberger's use here roughly 1910s-1940s) illustrating a broad sensibility that Weinberger calls the sense of being "elsewhere":
Victor Segalen, in China at the beginning of the century, writes of the "manifestation of Diversity," a "spectacle of Difference": everything that is "foreign, strange, unexpected, surprising, mysterious, amorous, superhuman, heroic, and even divine, everything that is Other." Picasso put it more bluntly: "Strangeness is what we wanted to make people think about because we were quite aware that our world was becoming very strange."
While certainly many English speakers/authors wrote poems about travel to foreign places during the same era, by relying on works in translation, of a Japanese traveler writing about Paris or a Senegalese poet in NYC for example, Weinberger doubles down on the foreignness, the dislocation and wonder of the experiences.
He organizes the selection of poems first into three geographical locations—Paris, NYC, and Los Angeles—then the experience of travel in a section "Trains and Cars," followed by "Imaginary Countries," and concludes with a coda about the end of journeying. With only a few poems in each section. Weinberger is neither trying to anthologize nor exhaust the poetic expressions of elsewhere; the prospect of doing so for any one of the cities for example—Paris—would require hundreds of poems to do justice. Instead Weinberger is free to choose unique poems, under topics specific to his interests without being tied down to any taxonomic-like system. Of the thirteen poems in total, Weinberger is the translator of four, along with others such as Thomas Merton and Langston Hughes.
The first poem, "Cathedral in the Thrashing Rain" (trans. Hiroaki Sato) is by Japanese poet Kotaro Takamura. I suspect that he is heretofore unknown to 99 out of 100 English readers (unless familiar with a Green Integer edition from 2007 of the poet's The Chieko Poems). The poem lauds the Cathedral of Notre Dame in an extended address to it, a pattern of address that repeats several times throughout in this book; there's an odd, quaint tone to the address to this "you" that is actually charming and engaging. The first stanza begins:
O another deluge of wind and rain.
Collar turned up, getting drenched in this splashing rain,
and looking up at you—it's me,
me who never fails to come here once a day,
It's that Japanese.
Takamura goes on to evoke the cathedral and immediate environment in the middle of a storm, outside weather in the real world perhaps mirroring the passion of the poet who describes the building in an affectionate embrace:
O Cathedral, you who at such a moment keep ever more silent and soar,
Cathedral, you who watch motionless the houses of Paris suffering the storm,
Please do not think me rude,
who, hands on your cornerstone,
has his hot check pressed on your skin,
it's me, the drunken one
It's that Japanese.
Yes, the reader comes to agree, this is truly an experience of elsewhere, "foreign, strange, unexpected, surprising, mysterious, amorous . . ."
Weinberger follows each poem with a quite brief biographical account of the poets. The choice to order this explanation after the poems rather than before brings a direct experience of the poems first. It is rewarding to read the poem, then the biographical context, and finally to double back and reread the poem.
Some readers might be familiar with Garcia Lorca's poems about NYC, with one in this collection as selected by Weinberger, and others might even know Brecht's poetry—although I suspect more know him as a writer of plays (albeit in the sense of Jeopardy answers rather than readers of the actual plays). Others might be familiar with the Turkish poet Hikmet, South African/Portuguese Pessoa, and French Apollinaire, I'm willing to wager that no one until Weinberger has brought together such disparate voices, added to by several other lesser-known Latin American writers, others from Senegal, Haiti and Austria. One of the great joys of reading this book is putting yourself in the hands of Weinberger and his selection of voices.

A West Virginia woman paid $7 for a box of items at a flea market two years ago, and it turns the box contained an original painting by the French impressionist Renoir. The painting has a Renoir plaque on the front, but of course needed the works in terms of analysis to make sure it was the real thing. No one knows how it ended up in West Virginia. It'll be auctioned off September 29 and could fetch $75,000 or more.
Striking workers not planning a vote, according to union
There will be no vote by striking workers on the latest contract offer from Constellium. The company made the offer last week after both sides met with Gov. Earl Ray Tomblin and U.S. Sen. Joe Manchin in Charleston. Constellium says it expires at midnight Saturday. A United Steelworkers representative says union workers won't have a ratification vote, although the exact reason hasn't been given. The strike is in its fifth week now and affects about 700 workers. The negotiations have focused on proposed changes to health insurance, with workers having to pick up 5 percent instead of having the benefits 100 percent paid.
Bond denied for woman accused of killing boyfriend
A woman accused of killing her boyfriend on Charleston's west side has to stay in jail. 30-year old Stacey McCormick, 30, is charged with first-degree murder, and during a hearing Thursday her attorney asked for bond to be set at $25,000 and home confinement until the case moves ahead. Police say McCormick stabbed David Snyder in the lung at an apartment along Washington Street West in August and he died a short time later. The defense said the charge should be lowered to manslaughter. The prosecution said preliminary reports show Snyder died of a blood clot in the lung, caused by the stabbing. McCormick stays in jail until the next court date.
