text: California Assembly Passes Bill Mandating Condoms for Porn Stars Print article Send a Tip by Robert Wilde 29 May 2014 post a comment On Tuesday, the California Assembly passed AB 1576 requiring adult entertainment industry performers to use condoms during sexual activity in porn movies. According to the Sacramento Bee, protecting porn performers from sexually transmitted diseases has been a cause célèbre for California lawmakers, in particular Isadore Hall (D-Compton) who sponsored the bill. Hall tried unsuccessfully last year to pass two similar bills and argues that unprotected sex in the porn industry is a public health hazard. "This industry has been largely self-regulated and has done an inadequate job of protecting its employees," he asserted. Moreover, Hall contends that employee rights need to be treated with the same gravity as in all other industries. "We need to begin to treat the adult film industry just like any other legitimate, legal business in California… Legitimate businesses are required to protect employees from injury in the workplace." Last week, Breitbart News reported that the adult entertainment industry views the bill as intrusive and possibly an infringement on their First Amendment rights. One actress referred to AB 1576 as "insulting" and "paternalistic." A group of adult film entertainers known as The Free Speech Coalition traveled to Sacramento last week to lobby for the industry. According to the Bee, new regulations for condom use could seriously affect the bottom line of an industry which generates $9 to $13 billion a year. Also germane to the First Amendment argument are industry protestations that the testing regimen and documentation compliances are burdensome and perhaps unworkable. California gubernatorial hopeful Assemblyman Tim Donnelly (R-Twin Peaks) weighed in on the issue: "This is a mandate that I'm afraid these businesses are going to have trouble meeting."

I am a mother of three, sharing my journey of hope and survival following the loss of our son...
Just Ordinary, Please...
Last week I was catching up with a fairly new acquaintance when he asked if I had anyone else I could bring with me when visiting schools in his area. I misunderstood his question, as I thought he was inquiring about the possibility of other bereaved parents joining me to share their stories. Though I've encountered many who've lost children over the last six years, only a fraction have ever spoken publicly about their loss....More...Aug. 08, 2014 | Permalink | Carolina Sonshine

When we relocated to this house, we turned it into a family adventure… We packed up and hauled our things across the street and a mile down the road to keep Brian and Grace in the same high school zone.

Remembering Brian
How could you ever know that one little decision would change everything?

The morning before Mother's day, I found myself smack dab in the middle of a friendly disagreement… An acquaintance declared his belief that Mother's day is a pagan holiday.

Ayotte seeks hearing into the Joint POW-MIA Accounting Command
In a letter sent Wednesday to Sen. Carl Levin, D-Mich, chairman of the Armed Services Committee, Ayotte writes that the GAO report "details serious problems within JPAC that are hindering efforts to locate and bring home missing persons from past armed conflicts...it underscores the need for the Committee to hear directly from JPAC officials about these disturbing findings and to ensure proper steps are being taken to address these problems."
The GAO report released Wednesday states, "While the Department of Defense has made some progress in promoting communication among the several organizations responsible for accounting for missing persons — known collectively as the accounting community — DoD's capability and capacity to accomplish its missing persons accounting mission is being undermined by longstanding leadership weaknesses and a fragmented organizational structure. Leadership from the Under Secretary of Defense for Policy (USD Policy) and U.S. Pacific Command (PACOM) have not been able to resolve disagreements among accounting community members, thereby impacting DoD's ability to meet the mandated goal of increasing its capability and capacity to account for 200 missing persons a year by 2015."

text: FWD.us: Take Selfies4Amnesty! Print article Send a Tip by Tony Lee 2 May 2014 post a comment Facebook co-founder Mark Zuckerberg's pro-amnesty lobbying group is asking celebrities and Americans to take selfies to urge Congress to pass amnesty. Those who have already taken selfies for amnesty include Adrien Grenier, Jared Leto, and Chris Tucker along with politicians like California Governor Jerry Brown – who gave driver's licenses to illegal immigrants and made California a sanctuary state for illegal immigrants who have not committed major crimes by signing the Trust Act – and Rep. David Valadao (R-CA), who also supports the Senate's comprehensive immigration reform bill. As Congress pushes to pass sweeping amnesty legislation that the Congressional Budget Office determined would lower the wages of American workers this spring or summer, high-tech lobbies like FWD.us that have already spent millions are looking to spend even more to influence the debate. Though there is no proof that there is a shortage of American high-tech workers, the high-tech industry wants to double or even triple the number of H1-B visas to import more foreign workers that they can hire at cheaper wages. FWD.us has courted the media and hired lobbyists and political insiders on both sides of the aisle from D.C.'s permanent political class to push amnesty legislation. The latest "#Seflies4Reform" campaign urges people to take selfies on a FWD.us app that will then get sent directly "as a postcard to Congress." "We're excited to announce our newest advocacy tool in the fight for immigration reform--#Selfies4Reform," FWD.us writes. "Reach out to your Member of Congress in support of immigration reform by doing something as easy as taking a selfie."

Claire I. Souders

Born in Woonsocket, she was a daughter of the late Arthur and Eva (Baril) Bourassa.

WOONSOCKET ŌĆō A Superior Court judge on Friday denied a retired policemanŌĆÖs petition for a temporary restraining order prohibiting the city from cutting his health care benefits without collective bargaining.

He was a veteran of the Vietnam Conflict, serving in the U.S. Air Force for 4 years.
LINCOLN -- Southpaw Kyle Marrapese hurled four-plus innings of superb relief and teammate Dominic Cunha went 2-for-2 with a double, walk, three RBI and two runs scored on Sunday night.
With that and more, the Lincoln All-Stars snatched an easier-than-expected 13-2 victory over Cumberland National in the R.I. Little League District IV TournamentŌĆÖs title tilt at Randy Hien Field late Sunday night.
In the process, Lincoln inked its return to the state tourney, and will begin play on Saturday at Cranston WesternŌĆÖs home.
BLACKSTONE ŌĆō The Blackstone/Millville Regional District School Committee has named Perry Davis as interim superintendent of schools while the search continues for a permanent replacement for Kimberly Shaver-Hood.

LINCOLN ŌĆō In the pantheon of table games, they say craps offers the well-schooled gambler with a head for numbers the best chance of beating the odds.
But on a busy night when chips are flying around an exotic mix of mind-boggling games with names like Spanish 21 and Pai Gow Poker, this may be the safest bet in the house: somebodyŌĆÖs trying to rig the system.
ThatŌĆÖs where Detective Lt. John Flaherty comes in. The 23-year veteran of the state police is in charge of the new Gaming Enforcement Unit, created to squeeze cheating and corruption out of the table game business at Twin River.
WOONSOCKET ŌĆö Perhaps 10 minutes after the Lincoln All-Stars had clinched its second straight appearance in the championship final of the R.I.

PROVIDENCE ŌĆō Eight-year-old Estuardo Estrada of Providence stares up into the beady eyes of a Triceratops, a three-horned, plant-eating dinosaur that roamed the earth 65 million years ago.
Illuminated by overhead multi-colored lights, the beastŌĆÖs head ŌĆō boasting the largest skull of all land mammals ŌĆö suddenly moves from side to side, itŌĆÖs short, pointed tail wagging in unison.
The creature suddenly lets out a roar, startling Estrada and the crowd of other junior paleontologists standing nearby.
Wide-eyed and breathless, Estrada grips the hand of his stepfather Gabriel Vargas.
BURRILLVILLE ŌĆō Shannon Heil and Markell Torres hadnŌĆÖt known each other long, but they bonded quickly through a mutual passion for competitive cheerleading ŌĆō something they were both very good at.
Their brief time together ended tragically on a rural stretch of Route 102 Thursday afternoon in one of the most violent car crashes Police Chief Stephen J. Lynch has ever seen.
ŌĆ£It was a nasty car accident ... just devastating,ŌĆØ said Lynch, his voice trailing off.

I was so proud of our girl Lauren Alaina Suddeth's comeback last week after a lackluster previous week. While there really wasn't one performance I thought stood out above the others, I did think Lauren and Stefano Langone were the two best of the evening.

One of the toughest parts of setting up your strategic meetings management program is the technology piece. The more I speak to readers, the more I see why. For starters, you're not going to get management buy-in until you have compiled data on the company's meetings activity, whether you do it through your corporate travel department, work with accounting to determine what's been spent on corporate credit cards, or check with hotel national sales offices to get info — or all three.

It was time for Geet to go home.
Geet- Maan, what time is it?
Maan- 5:00 PM.
Geet- Mere jaane ka waqt aa gaya hain. Dadimaa ne mujhe jaldi ghar aane ke liye bola tha.
Maan- Chalo theek hain.
Geet searched for Vicky's arms. Vicky couldn't bear to see Geet in this state.
Geet- Vicky? Aap kahan ho?
Vicky touched Geet's shoulders.
Geet smiled and hugged Vicky. Vicky was teary.
Vicky- Hum fir milenge.
Geet- Jaroor.
Geet and Maan left and went home. Maan was tempted to ask Geet about her past in the car ride.
Maan- How did you become blind?
Geet- It's a long story.
Maan- I like long stories.
Geet- Well, I don't like to talk about it.
Maan- As you wish.
Geet nodded and listened to the music that was on.
Maan dropped Geet off at her house.
Maan- I'm happy that you had a good time today.
Geet- yeah. Thanks so much...for everything.
Maan- No problem.
The next day-
It was 10 AM and Maan came to the coffee shop again.
Maan- Good Morning Geet, Nani.
Geet- Morning Maan.
Nani- Good morning bete. Have some muffins, Geet just made them.
Maan- Banana nut? My favorite.
Geet smiled.
Geet- Mine too.
Maan smiled.
Geet- Accha, to kaam kaisa hain?
Maan- Accha hain. I have a client coming from Punjab next week.
Geet- Punjab? Arey, my village is over there. It's my dream to go there.
Maan- Really?
Geet- Yeah! Golden Temple, Patiala, Chandigarh, Amritsar ke kulche, Jalandhar ki tikiaan aur pakore it all seems so fascinating.
Maan- That's nice. I'm also Punjabi.
Geet- Accha? Vahan aap kahan rehte hain?
Maan- Mera bunglow Chandigarh mein hain aur vahan Khurana Constructions ka Head Office bhi hain.
Geet- Oh, main to Jalandhar se hoon.
Maan- Oh, to Doaba ki ladki hain.
Geet- Ji han
Maan smiled.
Geet- Due to my blindness, Nani never bothered to go back to Punjab.
Maan- Geet, haven't you ever tried going to a doctor and trying surgery.
Geet- I can't afford it. We barely have enough money for the house morgtage, loans, the coffee shop, our car and alot more. Surgery is way out of our league.
Maan- Oh.
Geet- But I don't want surgery anyway. I deserve to live in a black world.
Maan- Why?
Geet- I can't tell you.
Maan- Yes you can. We're friends.
Geet- I know, and thank you, but I'm just not ready.
Maan- When will you be ready?
Geet- yeh sab janne se aapko kya milega?
Maan- Chain
Geet- Lekin mujhe nahi. Mujhe kabhi chain nahi aayega yeh sab batakar. Mujhe to sirf dar lagega.
Maan- Dar? Kis baat ki?
Geet- Aapko khone ki. Apne dost ko khone ki.
Maan- Geet, believe me, I will always be there for you.
Geet- Sorry, itni taqat nahi hain mujhmein aapko yeh sab batane mein.
Maan- Main tumhara taqat bankar rehonga Geet. Batao mujhe.
Geet- Nahi Maan. Nahi.
Maan didn't want to force Geet or make her feel uncomfortable.
Maan- Sorry if I made you uncomfortable. I was just curious. Whenever you are ready, mujhe jaroor batana.

I love window shopping. My favorite thing to do when I go to the city is stroll the streets looking in the store windows to see how they've displayed whatever item-of-the-week they are proffering for pleasure. To that end one of my favorite movies used to be Mannequin (don't judge) and I loved when they dressed the store windows after coming up with a delightful theme. When I was 13 my grandparents took me to NYC to see the Radio City Music Hall Christmas show and afterwards we walked up and down 5th Ave ogling the store fronts and being typical tourists. I had been to NYC before several times but this particular time really made an impression on me. It still is my favorite trip to the city although recent ones have come close to comparing. These trips spawned a great appreciation for detail. For those little things that people think of that make you say "oh!".
As much as I love window shopping I am even more of a geek when it comes to wedding styling and details. There are so many crafts and DIY things showing up at weddings that I love to spend time photographing. It surprises the heck out of me that I didn't consider the details at my own wedding. I was so consumed with the timeline and seating arrangements that I didn't really think about doing any crafts. Although, weddings have changed a lot since I got married nearly 10 years ago! And now we have Pinterest (seriously, don't judge) and entire blogs dedicated just to wedding and event styling!
I went through some of my past weddings and pulled some of my favorite detail shots for your viewing pleasure!
Details don't have to be small! How about renting a double-decker and bringing along your own bagpipe musician?

This book was quick and enjoyable. It provides some insights into the lives of successful child fantasy authors. I only wish that some adult fantasy writers could have been included. Still, this book is good for anyone with an interest in writing fantasy or if you just want to know more about the authors that were interviewed. There are some good tips and bits of advice for young (and possibly not-so-young) writers that may prove helpful.

November 24, 2014
DETROIT (AP) -- Graco Children's Products has added 403,222 child seats to last month's recall of 3.8 million to replace faulty harness buckles.
But the added seats won't end a dispute with the U.S. government's road safety watchdog. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration still wants Graco to add 1.8 million infant seats to the recall because they have the same buckles.
Buckles can get gummed up by food and drinks, making it difficult to remove children. In some cases parents have had to cut harnesses to get their children out. The agency says the problem increases the injury risk in emergencies.
Graco says in a letter to the agency that it found additional toddler and harnessed booster seats that should be recalled. The company still believes the infant seats should be excluded.

Lol they do have to play us twice you know plus Baltimore, Denver, San Francisco, and Houston. I say 13-3. I don't agree with strength of schedule it's a load of BS.
The Football Gods love the Pats.
32 ranked schedule this year.
Improved D
Improved running game
I hate the Pats
Lol they do have to play us twice you know plus Baltimore, Denver, San Francisco, and Houston. I say 13-3. I don't agree with strength of schedule it's a load of BS.
Won't go 16-0. Don't put so much stock into them shutting down Chris Johnson, many teams have done that the past couple years. He's very soft. Locker is very inexperienced. Their secondary is still garbage.
Brady out for the season in Week 4.
Sent from my Double-Wide using Semaphore...
It's what's after game 16 that matters.
Their OL is atrocious. Brady's kryptonite is getting hit. Hit him early and often and you will beat him. I see them as an 11-13 win team.
Mark my words, the Broncos will have the best record in the AFC this year (and will beat the Pats).
The Jets scored 48 points after showing no offense all preseason and you're worrying about the Patriots going undefeated after one week? Stop being so negative and focus on the JETS.
And, DUMP THIS THREAD before PatsFanTx gets in here.
I honestly think the Ravens will kick the Pats @$$.
IMO, they were the most impressive, well rounded team in Week 1. I want no part of them.
The pats aren't a hard team to figure out. It's all about the pass rush with Brady. How do you think the Giants beat them again and again?
Funny Jets fans. Always wanting your team to be so relevant when nobody is thinking about them or fearing them, LOL.
Won ONE game and it's warm and fuzzy on these forums. A loss to the Steelers and they are the "YETS" again.
Funny Pats fans. So delusional as to think Brady will be around to save them for much longer.
I mean, you can hate on us all you want, but we're not the ones wasting our time on rival team forums.
16-0 is a once in a lifetime (or two) proposition. That's why it was such a huge slap in the face to Colts fans when they sat Manning and most of the starters in "09.
Against the Titans, Brady averaged 2.5 seconds to get rid of the ball. A pass rush has to be VERY quick to beat that speedy release. Plus, the OL is not the hot garbage as its made out to be here. Your O-line only has ONE game of experience with Howard, a guy who's team wanted to get rid of so badly they traded him for The Turnstile. I wouldn't proclaim it All World after one decent showing, although there is certainly reason for optimism after last Sunday.

Tune group has potential to repeat AirAsias success.
Tune Group, the closely held parent company of Fernandes and business partner Kamarudin Meranun, may sell stock in some of the units by the end of next year, Fernandes said. Initial public offerings (IPOs) are also planned for AirAsia's Indonesian budget arm and long-haul unit AirAsia X, he said. AirAsia is the world's fastest-growing traded airline by sales in the past five years, according to data.
"Tune Money and Tune Hotels have the most potential," the Malaysian entrepreneur said in a June 14 interview.
"The financial services industry is complicated, just like airlines, and we are reaching a market that they generally missed and we are utilising AirAsia's customer base, which is huge."
The 48-year-old is targeting emerging wealth in Southeast Asia where an increasing number of its 598 million inhabitants can afford to travel and buy consumer goods such as mobile phones for the first time.
Demand for budget services has so far withstood the global economic slowdown amid a protracted crisis in Europe. AirAsia's first-quarter profit rose while full-service carriers Singapore Airlines and Malaysian Airline posted losses in the period, citing fuel costs. AirAsia's passenger numbers gained 12 per cent in the quarter as the region's slowing economic growth prompted more people to opt for budget travel.
Shielded region
AirAsia climbed as much as 1.9 per cent to 3.73 ringgit ring·git

Southeast Asia is weathering a slump in IPOs better than markets including Hong Kong, as optimism about the region's economic outlook draws investors to offerings by companies including Felda Global Ventures, Malaysia's biggest plantation owner, and IHH Healthcare, Asia's largest Hospital operator.
Asia Aviation, the parent of AirAsia's Thai airline, has fallen 7.6 per cent in Bangkok after becoming the first subsidiary to begin trading last month.
"The best use of capital is a repeating model," said Fernandes, who has spent some of his wealth on buying a Formula One racing team and the English soccer club Queens Park Rangers.
Most of Tune's companies are designed to contribute to one another. Passengers booking flights online are offered travel insurance, budget bedrooms and prepaid mobile phone This is a method of billing for a mobile phone. Prepaid mobile phones operate by a user's purchase of mobile services in advance of using them. By purchasing credit to use on a mobile phone network, a user can access a mobile phone network without ongoing billing. cards.
All are available and interlinked via the Internet.
Tune Hotels operates 24 budget hotels in Southeast Asia and the UK.
,with deals signed with developer partners to add another 60 properties in countries including Australia, India and the Middle East, chief executive Mark Lankester said in an interview.
While international hotel operators including France's Accor have set up economy brands such as Ibis and All Seasons to target budget-conscious travelers, they don't compete in the same bargain-bucket segment as Tune.
Mobile sceptic
Tune Money, an online distributor of insurance and mutual funds, got off to a "disastrous start," said Fernandes, a trained accountant. It changed management and strategy, making about 30 million ringgit ($9.5 million) last year. "Many people who fly with us don't have insurance, don't have credit cards, don't have unit trusts."
Tune Talk is a so-called mobile virtual network operator A Mobile Virtual Network Operator (MVNO) is a company that provides mobile (sometimes called wireless or cellular) telephone service but does not have its own allocation of the radio frequency spectrum nor all of the infrastructure required to provide mobile telephone service. that uses other carriers' infrastructure for its wireless phone services. It has just broken even, he said. Of three Tune units targeted for listing, fund manager Choo Swee Kee said he's most skeptical about Tune Talk.
"Its fate could be very similar to XOX, another MVNO (Mobile Virtual Network Operator) A reseller of wireless services. MVNOs do not own licensed spectrum and typically do not have any of their own wireless network infrastructure. player that wasn't very profitable at the time of listing and then the share price tanked," said Choo, who manages about 700 million ringgit as chief investment officer of TA Investment Management in Kuala Lumpur.
XOX has reported three straight quarterly losses and slid 80 percent in Kuala Lumpur since its trading debut a year ago.
Music roots
Some Tune ventures have little connection to the core tourism business. Tune Studios allows aspiring singers to record albums inexpensively. Plans are under way to start Tune Live, which would organise concerts.
"All these businesses are run by different people," said Fernandes, who like his former boss Richard Branson started out in the music industry before branching into aviation and other industries. "We are no different from a private-equity fund."
Fernandes, who previously worked as financial controller for Branson's Virgin Records in London, has more time to expand these businesses after stepping down from Malaysian Air's board in April and reversing a share swap following union dissent over management's turnaround plans. Fernandes will relocate to Jakarta this month to focus on regional growth.
"When you're based in Malaysia you'll inevitably get drawn into the Malaysian operations," he said. "I'll take on the regional role."
Young population
Southeast Asia offers one of the fastest-growing markets for Tune's products. Indonesia, the region's most-populous country, has a median age of 28, compared with 36 in China, according to the Central Intelligence Agency's World Fact Book.
Tune joins furniture retailer Ikea Group and Uniqlo store- operator Fast Retailing in targeting a region where gross domestic product growth exceeds 7 per cent and its population is among the youngest in the world. The total GDP GDP (guanosine diphosphate): see guanine. of Southeast Asia's 10 nations is $1.86 trillion, more than India, and 37 percent of its residents are under 19, according to the Association of Southeast Asian Nations Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN), organization established by the Bangkok Declaration (1967), linking the nations of Indonesia, Malaysia, Philippines, Singapore, and Thailand. .

Getting Ready For The Governor's Cup
Tony Vanetti: Alright, well before we get to The Governor's Cup which happens this Saturday at noon, let's go back to the Notre Dame and Louisville game where there are dozens of reported Kentucky fans head to toe in Kentucky gear cheering for Notre Dame. Matt, just explain to me how the UK fan works [...]
Exciting Starts and Ends to Seasons
Tony Vanetti: Alright Matt, it's a little early in the season for Calipari to be chastising the fans after the game, like he did the other day, about just supporting the team and avoiding crazy behavior on the internet. It's a little early for that, isn't it? Matt Jones: I don't know what was going [...]
Game For Notre Dame
Last week I speculated that when Louisville took on Notre Dame, the Irish would be ripe for the picking.
Parker and Holliman Thrive
For a little while on Saturday, Louisville looked in trouble against Boston College.
Kentucky Loss Discouraging? Just the Opposite
If you muted Musburger and had the radio on, as I did, you kept hearing all these three little words over and over.
Willis Willing to Wait
Derek Willis played a total of just 39 minutes, seeing action in 14 games as a freshman at the University of Kentucky.
UofL Outdone and Outrebounded
TONY VANETTI: My favorite story of the weekend, Matthew, is the male UK cheerleader on the sidelines at Mizzou yelling at your football coaches that the play calling is awful. And then, your athletic director having to hold the male cheerleader back. Tell me about it. MATT JONES: Well, from what I understand, the coaches [...]
Seminoles and Scrimmages
Tony Vanetti: I think if you want to take a UK football play from Saturday that stands for what UK fans have gone through for decades, it would certainly be the end of the Mississippi State game, with the onside kick. Matt Jones: Yeah that was sort of a classic UK football play. It was [...]
Let's Call it "Not-Season-Ending Injury Valley"
I guess it's time to come back down to earth.

What to serve with clam chowder?
I plan on making a large batch of clam chowder for Christmas Eve, any thoughts on what else to serve to round out the meal? At first I was going to put out an antipasto salad and then serve a couple of different soups, but got requests for the chowder. Doesn't seem like an antipasto goes with it. Also, thoughts on a second soup? There will only be 10 of us and envision this as a casual sort of thing, not formal sit-down. And plenty of cookies for dessert!
What type of chowder? New England? Manhattan?
If NE, there was a great thread about this recently: http://chowhound.chow.com/topics/669789
For Manhattan, the fresh baked bread is good....maybe with a salad of bibb lettuce, shaved fennel, orange segments and black olives.
Instead of baking bread, you might go the route of making homemade cloverleaf rolls or biscuits- both which are big hits whenever i serve them.
Second soup is something that might contrast with the other.....maybe something with a little spice, like a vegetarian chili or a chicken tortilla soup.
re: 4Snisl
Oh horrors, New England of course! My yankee roots hardly allow for acknowledging the other! No offense to those who enjoy the Manhattan version. Thanks for that thread, I had missed it.
re: bananie
You crack me up! Since you have a creamy soup, I'd definitely go with something more tomato-oriented. The suggestions I made, while tomato-based, are also fun because you can set out lots of condiments for customization (e.g. avocado, tortilla strips, diced onion, chopped cilantro, etc.)
(Maybe I shouldn't call the chili suggestions "chili"...;)
With good ole creamy clam chowder, I've had good luck serving a salad of caramelized onion, corn, diced red pepper and diced ham. Just caramelize diced onion in some sugar, add the red pepper, corn and ham and heat through. Dress with a little cider vinegar and some olive oil and serve at room temperature.
I love the idea of baking biscuits to serve with the chowder.
Finally, with creamy clam chowder a dark green salad with escarole and arugula, and some sort of cheese is nice, too.
i like the idea of a dark green salad, like spinach, watercress, shredded carrot, diced apple or pear and candied walnuts with a sharp dijon vinaigrette.
i'd do a platter of sliced turkey, roast beef and swiss cheese, with small soft rolls, condiments and garnishes so your guests can make small sandwiches. i'd leave off the ham since there is bacon or salt pork in the chowder and stay away from anything else creamy or cheesey. one soup, let the chowder be the star. cookies and brownies for after.
and yeah, my 1st reaction also was, "there is no other kind of chowder other than white," lol.
I'd serve something like a sauteed seafood salad with a combination of tiny salad shrimp and bay scallops or smoked salmon with small roll assortment and a citrus horseradish sauce; a simple caesar salad with fresh croutons....for the second soup, maybe a Brunswick stew which includes all types of veggies and some chicken and/ or smoked sausage.
Ha ha, I was going to say "Oysterettes of course"! My husband won't eat chowder without them.
If this is not sit-down-at-table, any salad you serve must be cut up so that no cutting is needed; in fact, no dish should require a knife. A nice crunchy, finely shredded cabbage-based slaw would provide a variety of contrasts (I generally think that warm-creamy/gooey things should be complemented by cool-crisp things); a dilled cucumber salad (like this: http://www.trinityriverfarm.com/austr...) would also work.
For a second soup, I think kale soup (the New England sister to Portuguese caldo verde) would make another New England classic.
Another approach would be croque monsieurs, cut up into finger sandwiches.
I would serve clam cakes(clam fritters) I know weird but oh so great for the dunking. I like the other idea for stew type soup as a second.....maybe serve it with a top crust ,pot pie style and a nice salad
How about some fried ravioli or tortolini with marinara for dipping? I think that would provide a contrast with out overdoing it with the white vs red.
