Oct 31- Nov 4 Eating Itinerary Gaps
- pizzajunkie Oct 1, 2012 10:27 AM
Please critique my eating/drinking itinerary (this is my sixth visit to NYC):
OCTOBER 31 (Wed)
Arrival 1:30ish at JFK, hotel is in Murray/Curry Hill-Kips Bay area, so my estimate is 3:00 for the earliest sitdown to eat - will be STARVING by then -
Grand Sichuan? Eataly for a pizza?
Death + Co at 6pm - possibly followed by a stop at Employees Only
Osteria Morini res at 8:45
NOVEMBER 1 (Thurs)
(Hopefully) EMP at noon
8 PM - Once the Musical
John's or PizzaArte after?
NOVEMBER 2 (Friday)
Early lunch at Red Egg or Golden Unicorn
12:30 9/11 Memorial reservation
______ early dinner? Already been to Le B (love) - been to Babbo several times but considering going back...
8 PM - Glengarry Glen Ross
Milk & Honey after? (with res, have been once before)
NOVEMBER 3 (Saturday)
Lunch - probably a slice at Joe's on Carmine (a tradition)
Dinner open - would like to work in Mayahuel and Raines Law Room. A stop at Jacques Torres also.
NOVEMBER 4 (Sunday)
Lunch at Jean-Georges
Quick stop at MoMa to see the Scream (have been to Moma before)
early dinner/snack open - flight to JFK departs just before 9:00 pm
Any feedback is appreciated, whether logistical or food-wise. We are heavy on Asian and Italian food on purpose. Have been to Le B, Scarpetta, Per Se Salon, Bar Boulud, Mailiano, Grand Sichuan (St. Marks Place location), Chinatown Brasserie (which I understand is now closed), Katz's, Gramercy Tavern, Artisinal. Thanks to the Hounds for any help! Cheers!
re: thegforceny
Sneakeater and thegforceny, please see my explanation below - my hotel is near Les Halles, I was just trying to give a foodie landmark, no plans to eat there, LOL! ;)
re: pizzajunkie
I'm VERY relieved.
re: Sneakeater
sneakeater - LOL!
re: Cheeryvisage
ooh thanks Cheery!
re: Cheeryvisage
You're kidding, right?
Nam Wah. If we're talking Manhattan.
re: mitchleeny
No, I'm not kidding. Hakkasan and Red Farm are leagues above any other dim sum restaurants in the city.
re: mitchleeny
I would strictly be staying in Manhattan and I do appreciate any recommendations! Thanks mitchleeny!
re: pizzajunkie
By the way, if you enjoy soup dumplings, Red Farm's soup dumplings are the best.
re: Beloved1
THanks Beloved - I was trying to be mindful of the parade - I was there for Halloween a few years ago and ate at the Grand Sichuan on St Marks place with no problem, but that was during the parade.
Totally My fault for not making this clear - my hotel is NEAR Les Halles, I don't plan on eating there, LOL. I was looking for something around 3pm in that general Murray/Curry Hill/Kips Bay area on the 31st.
I just edited the post - sorry for any confusion!
I guess Shake Shack might be my best bet? But a pizza from Eataly sounds better.
re: pizzajunkie
> OCTOBER 31 (Wed)

Eataly will be pretty quiet, so that might be fun.
Shake Shack is iffy & so dependent upon the weather.
Also if you walk down a bit you can eat at the bar at Gramercy Tavern's Tavern Room, which serves all day.
Additionally, Cafe China serves all day long.
> Death + Co at 6pm - possibly followed by a stop at Employees Only
> Osteria Morini res at 8:45
If you wanted to do a bit of a bar crawl in the East Village, you could do Death & Co, Amor y Amargo, Mayahuel, Booker & Dax, and/or Pouring Ribbons (new bar, ex-D&C bartender). Booker & Dax is especially notable for their modern, experimental take on cocktails. Getting to D&C at 6pm is a good plan. I like EO but I think all the ones I listed are better.
Also, this is Halloween night, it will be a NIGHTMARE getting from the East Village to the West Village. Better off sticking with the EV on this night.
> NOVEMBER 1 (Thurs)
> (Hopefully) EMP at noon
> 8 PM - Once the Musical
> John's or PizzaArte after?
Skip John's in Midtown, it's not as good as the Bleecker St one.
> NOVEMBER 2 (Friday)
> Early lunch at Red Egg or Golden Unicorn
I would personally do the duck lunch at Momofuku Ssam or lunch at Mission Chinese instead. Or maybe Xian Famous Foods. Both Red Egg and Golden Unicorn have decent dim sum, but Red Egg's is slightly better, and neither are really exemplary compared to the West Coast.
> 12:30 9/11 Memorial reservation
> ______ early dinner? Already been to Le B (love) - been to Babbo several times but considering going back...
How about a bar seat at Locanda Verde?
re: kathryn
I was so hoping you would chime in, because I really value your opinions and feedback! :)
I actually read about Pouring Ribbons and had that on my short list - and Mayahuel also - so I think your suggestion to just stay in the EV is a good one. I have read good things about the Toucan and the Lion, and also there is Motorino (as tpigeon suggested) or Mission Chinese as someone else suggested. Or Spina?
Now I'm thinking Danji after the musical. Have you been there? A friend suggested it.
Lunch: Leaning towards Red Egg b/c we can get in at 11:00 am. I have had awesome dim sum in SF, as you acknowledged, but anything is better than what we have in New Orleans, which is virtually nothing. My companion is not a big duck fan. :( We have been to Ssam previously, though!
Dinner: That is a good suggestion for Locanda Verde, which has been on my radar for years. I also have a 5:00 res at Il Mulino, which seems to be a polarizing place on this board and on Yelp. But maybe it would be better to do a drinking snacky dinner at Mayahuel, Pegu Club, or Booker and Dax.
Hoping for an 11 pm reservation at Milk and Honey after the play - waiting to hear back!
re: pizzajunkie
OCTOBER 31: If you want to do Mission Chinese, email them and see if they'll take a reservation for that night. They do take a limited number of them.
Although the LES might be totally insane that night, so be prepared!
NOV 1: I haven't been to Danji yet, it's on my list, but I keep finding myself in the neighborhood when they're not open (Sundays).
NOV 2: You might also want to look into Dim Sum Go Go as an option as well.
The food at Mayahuel is pretty good, the food at Pegu Club is better, and the food at Booker & Dax is kind of quirky.
If you're really into cocktails and a "drinking snacky dinner," I like Death & Co, Pegu Club, and EO's food the best. Especially the bone marrow poppers at EO. Their steak tartare is pretty good as are the lamb chops. At Pegu Club, I like the scallop burgers and the deviled eggs. At Death & Co, the fries, the warm pretzels, the mac and cheese, and the grape flatbread with taleggio.
re: kathryn
Thanks Kathryn! I emailed Mission Chinese, that could be an option.
Hoping to make it to Danji - I know they do last call at 11 although they close at midnight, says their website, so I think we would just be walking in the door shortly before 11.
I will google Dim Sum a Go Go!
Thanks for the tips on the eats at the cocktail bars. Last time I went to Death and Co they had taken the pretzels off the menu - I'm so glad they are back!
re: pizzajunkie
They are off and on, for a while there was a tiny insert in the menu that had them, and then the next time it was gone... worth asking about though.
re: kathryn
kathryn - I will definitely ask!
re: pizzajunkie
I'd nix Red Egg if I were you...it's completely "meh."
re: LeahBaila
Red Egg officially nixed, LeahBaila. :) Now I'm between Nom Wah and DSGG.
re: pizzajunkie
I've heard WONDERFUL things about Nom Wah, and have been dying to get over there, myself...
re: tpigeon
tpigeon - I do and I love it! Maybe I should just try there and hunker down for the wait!
OCTOBER 31 (Wed)
Eataly is a good call, but I'd probably do Il Verdure or Il Pesce before the pizza. You could also go in the other direction, and do Riverpark for lunch.
Going from D&C to EO to Osteria isn't really doable in that short a time. You'd be passing by OM and then backtracking back to it. Also, that would be quite a few cocktails in that short a time, and you probably wouldn't want to eat anything at EO before going to OM. You could do one of the other great East Village cocktail bars - Mayahuel, PDT, etc - but no point. Have a second cocktail at D&C if you want another, then just go straight from D&C to Osteria. You could always do a late-night drink at EO, or there are a few other good joints closer to OM. (That one under Jacques is good - can't remember the name
NOVEMBER 1 (Thurs)
Looks good. Good luck with the EMP rez.
John's is good (and I assume you mean the Bleecker St John's) and if you're a craft beer fan the Blind Tiger Ale House is right near there for after-dinner (or before-dinner) drinks.
Another dinner option to consider - and closer to your hotel - would be Koreatown. Some great options here, from classic stuff like Kum Gang San (which, as I have pointed out many times, has a piano on top of a waterfall, which is something you can't put a price on) to the Zen beauty of the vegetarian (but oh so delicious) HanGawi, arguably both the best vegetarian AND best Korean restaurant in NYC. And after EMP for lunch... a late veggie dinner (if you can book it... last seating is at 10:30 IIRC) wouldn't be such a bad idea. Many K-Town joints (KGS included) are 24/7 though.
NOVEMBER 2 (Friday)
Neither Red Egg nor Golden Unicorn are worth bothering with at this point. For dim sum, do Nom Wah Tea Parlor, second choices would be Jing Fong or Dim Sum Go Go. For something a little different, the Bayard location of Xi'an Famous Foods is a great option.
I would also - while respecting Cheery's opinion - vote against Hakkasan. Red Farm wasn't bad the one time I went, but Nom Wah is much more fun, and it's an excuse to go wander Chinatown a bit, and will put you closer to your destination. Nom Wah is about a 20-25 minute walk from WTC, whereas RedFarm is more like 40-45.
Kathryn's suggestions for the duck lunch at Ssam or Mission are good, but they're both a little further from WTC.
Babbo is always an excellent choice if you can get the rez, but there's a good chance they're already booked. And honestly, if you're going to midtown for the theater afterwards, you don't want to be rushed. If you can book somewhere downtown early - like, 5:30 - that'd probably be fine, give you an hour and a half to eat at which point you could head uptown without feeling like you need to race. But maybe look into someplace in midtown.
For Italian, Esca and Marea are both within walking distance, and always good.
DB Bistro Moderne is nearby, and solid.
A little further but still do-able - The Modern (dining room or bar room), Aquavit (great of late, and recently got their Mich star back.)
NOVEMBER 3 (Saturday)
Start at either Mayahuel or Raines, and stop at Momofuku Ssam Bar for dinner in between. Or - better, start at MSB, because you're going to have a wait, and just get your first round of cocktails at Booker & Dax next door. They'll call you as soon as your seats are ready, no muss no fuss. Then do Maya or Raines after dinner, though be prepared - the wait will be looooong at both of them.
Saturday nights are the toughest to be out with no rez. You might want to consider flippng things around, doing a more sedate Saturday with reservations.
For lunch, maybe start early and do one of our better brunches (Public is a standout, many will agree) and then do Joe's for a snack mid-afternoon.
NOVEMBER 4 (Sunday)
Looks fine. Maybe grab some to-go somewhere (maybe in Koreatown?) for the flight or to eat while you're in the waiting area instead of rushing through a dinner.
re: sgordon
Hangawi may certainly be the best vegetarian Korean, but it's not the best vegetarian (Dirt Candy is so so so much better), or the best Korean. Though the atmosphere is lovely, the food is completely unmemorable. I have long been puzzled by the love it gets on CH.
re: rose water
Thus the "arguably" - unabashed borderline carnivore that I am, I'm quite fond of both HanGawi and Dirt Candy, each for different reasons. Obviously, DC is much more creative and "cheffier" so to speak.
It doesn't get love just on CH. IIRC, it's the highest rated NYC Korean restaurant in Zagat. Or it was, at one point (maybe Jungsik has overtaken it - we'll see in a few days when Z2013 comes out...)
Eh, it may not be for everyone, though. Everyone's got their tastes. I mean, I don't know why everyone loves Daniel, which I think is a bore beyond compare. Obviously a number of people disagree with me on that...
re: sgordon
The cocktail bar in the basement of Jacques is 1534.
re: sgordon
sgordon, thank you SO much for taking the time to write such a detailed response! I have jotted down several things and am still figuring things out logistically, but I am so much closer now thanks to the help of all the hounds. Much appreciated! I have to say I am intrigued by your piano on top of the waterfall restaurant, LOL!
re: pizzajunkie
My favorite restaurants in Koreatown are two barbecue (especially galbi/bulgogi) specialists: Madangsui and Don's Bogam. Madangsui has a slight edge for both BBQ and banchan (complimentary side dishes), whereas Don's Bogam has chili-marinated galbi, something I like, and my perception is that it's more well-rounded in terms of other dishes.
There's also a new Korean restaurant with a view that's been getting good reports here. Someone will chime in with its name because I don't remember.
re: Pan
Here it is:
re: thegforceny
thanks gforceny!!!
re: sgordon
Re. the dim sum choices, the Chinatown places are fine if you care more about the atmosphere, nostalgia, etc than the food. But if you want the best dim sum, period, Hakkasan is still the best in the city in my opinion.
re: Cheeryvisage
Cheery, I totally value your opinion. I narrowed it down to DSGG and Nom Wah due to proximity to the 9/11 Memorial and their 10:30 am opening times. I'm keeping Hakkasan on my short list for another trip! :)
re: pizzajunkie
Have a nice trip! You have quite a schedule. :)
re: Cheeryvisage
Thanks, Cheery!!! :)
Great itinerary!
I'd do Don Anotonio for pizza after ONCE, don't miss their Montanara Starita. They close at 11pm on Thurs., so you'll need to hustle, worth it.
Dim Sum Go Go for sure.
Maybe hit Xian Famous Foods (St Mark's) after checking in for lamb burgers and hand pulled noodles.
What, no bagels and smoked fish?
re: Chuck Lawrence
<<<I'd do Don Anotonio for pizza after ONCE, don't miss their Montanara Starita. They close at 11pm on Thurs., so you'll need to hustle, worth it. >>>
Chuck, I've read about Don Anotonio and the montananra starita - that sounds really good, too! I guess it's because we don't have great NY style pizza in New Orleans, but I've previously enjoyed John's in the theater district (not as good as Joe's on Carmine, but still, good!).
<<<Dim Sum Go Go for sure.>>>>
There seems to be an equal amount of love and enthusiasm for DSGG and Nom Wah on this board, making my decision very difficult!
<<<Maybe hit Xian Famous Foods (St Mark's) after checking in for lamb burgers and hand pulled noodles.>>>
Xian has been on my short list for a while - that many Hounds can't be wrong! ;)
<<<What, no bagels and smoked fish?>>>
Will be picking up bagels the day of departure from Ess a Bagel. On prior trips I have had bagels with smoked fish, but this time, I'm just coming home with bagels.
re: pizzajunkie
Xian is awesome. Get the lamb cumin hand pulled noodles.
re: tpigeon
tpigeon, that's the exact one that sounded the best to me!
re: pizzajunkie
With the caveat that I haven't tried the revamped Nom Wah yet: If Nom Wah's food is as good as or better than Dim Sum Go Go's, go to Nom Wah, because as a place to go to, you couldn't find a more classic, old-school one.
re: pizzajunkie
Just wanted to chime in and say Dim Sum Go Go. Great food a variety of dim sum and the rice dish is great. Found this years ago and they still remember my family. We go all the time. Since I went there (7 years ago) I've moved to Jersey and still make it a must go when I'm in the city. You'll love it!
re: Monalisa2_1
thanks Monalisa! Too funny....I had just settled on Nom Wah...but they are very close together, so I suppose I could just decide when I get there! LOL

Owen Groesser is an eighth grader at Van Hoosen Junior High School in Michigan. Van Hoosen played its final basketball game of the year yesterday and Owen had not played a single minute. Late in the contest, here was Groesser checking in for the first time. (You see where this is going?) Owen received a pass, readied himself for the set shot, and let it fly. For three.
According to ESPN, Owen hit another tre' a minute or so later leaving him with 6 points in roughly two minutes of play. Go Owen. Go.
Way to go Owen! God bless you, brother.

We value your privacy and would never spam you.
The best options trading resource in the market, worth to take a test drive.
As a new trader (less than one year) I have reviewed countless videos and subscribed to a handful of services. These proved to be expensive lessons indeed. I recently became aware of Kirk and Option/Alpha and finally have the confidence to continue trading.
Kirk's difference is his ability to not only tell you what he is trading, but why he is making a trade (in a very visual manner). I recommend all traders to check out Option/Alpha. Makes all the difference in the world.
I come from the world of finance already and for me Option Alpha was like switching from PC to Mac: a much smoother experience and a huge change in learning experience with complete training under-the-hood.
And the strange paradox for me is, that you can actually spend less time with options than I ever thought. It just doesn't require your attention all day which is nice.
I'm still working my way through the learning process and it's nice to know there are real people like Kirk who care and are more than happy to walk me through any questions. He even stepped in at one point to help make sure I placing a new trade alert correctly.
I've already been telling friends about the service and look forward to seeing the Option Alpha flourish.
It's literally plug and play training. I just wish I could get all those wasted hours back trying to do this stuff myself.
Last night's webinar was very helpful. Lots of answers to helping solidify my trading rules. Would enjoy a webinar on exit strategy or rolling position. Thanks for sharing.
Option Alpha has done something very powerful for me; quieted and focused my investing. Before Option Alpha I was all over the place with ideas about how trading worked. Through Option Alpha's education and training videos, I have a clear vision of what success looks like and specifically what I need to do to be successful.
Thanks Kirk for the webinars! Great great stuff!
I love options trading and you are a great teacher of it. Your explanations are to the point and very easy to understand and I've learned a lot from the three I've taken (TA, Adv Coaching and Trade adjustments), your webinars helped to tie in all the books, seminars, and mentoring I've taken in the last three years since joining this journey to learn options trading.
Next step: take a mentoring program with you! I've become a better options trader through understanding and practice since following Option Alpha and the content from the membership. Thanks again!
Just attended the webinar training for members and wanted to thank you for the clear explanations offered. I am a fairly new trader and have come to understand that anyone can make a trade - the challenge is to manage it. This had clearly addressed this topic. Thanks!
Group session was awesome last night - thanks again for all the time you put into the classes. Sine working together over the last 3 months - it is as if the lights just flipped on and I can now see the world for the first time.
After your guidance on managing losers - I need to find more of them so I can put all of your coaching to work! Who would have ever thought I would have said that Overall very happy with my progress - now I need to advance my other strategies. Thanks again for all you do!
Kirk, I have participated in many seminars and webinars on investing. In fact, I just heard a certain eminent guru of options explain options adjustments during videos on his website.
You bring greater clarity and no-nonsense precision to this complex subject of salvaging trades than anyone I have ever encountered. Your revelations are priceless to those seeking skills that will allow them to trade with confidence.
Thank you so very much for your invaluable insights. May you receive many blessings for the generosity of what you share.
I'm a retiree with a background in engineering, information technology and business. I decided to learn about options trading about three years ago in order to have something interesting to do with my time and to augment my retirement income.
I've read several books on the subject; I've taken all of the online courses offered by TD Ameritrade; I subscribed to Investools and took all of their classes; and I've subscribed to several options trading web sites. So far I've lost over $100,000.
As a final attempt to make options trading work for me, I subscribed to Option Alpha a few weeks ago. So far I've learned that my trades have been way too large and I had no clue about how to make trade adjustments in order to minimize losses. I really the trade adjustment tutorials and I think getting proficient in this area might get me over the hump. Glad I found you all.
Hey Option Alpha, loved your article on the psycho traits of profitable traders. Fascinating stuff - keep up the good work!
What I love most about Option Alpha is the simple video tutorials of literally every element I need to efficiently trade with my day job. To be honest I'm completely new at this and as a women it's a little intimidating. But Kirk so easily explains everything that I no longer am struggling with multiple issues when placing trades – and the days of worrying about the losing all my money are gone. Option Alpha is the total package, and I can't imagine where I'd be right now without it.
Dude I gotta tell ya man this is pretty cool! I'm gonna send the link to my buddy who's just starting out in the stock market! Videos are wicked good buddy :)
I just downloaded this awesome option strategy guide. A little too simple as far as design but man is it powerful conceptually. Thanks guys.
My name is Miles (32 yr old construction foreman) and I started trading options about 6 months ago. I am very committed to learning options in order to change my lifestyle, one step at a time. My initial goal was to make enough for a car payment but I have elevated that goal to earn enough for my fiancé to stay home with the future kids.
I started my learning with some "YouTube" videos and got the basics down. I tried multiple sources for learning and I really appreciate the basic and clean way Kirk from Option Alpha approaches the explanations. Other sites/sources assume you know the majority of the concepts and move at an elevated pace and as a beginner, this only confused me.
I have started trading and learned that the market does not always go your way. I joined Option Alpha's online membership and found it to be extremely helpful. The pace and training allows me to ask specific questions. My main take-away from everything so far was demonstrated with a real trade accompanied with the logical explanation of how we got to that point, and how to defend the position. This knowledge will stay with me throughout my trading "career" and will most surely pay for itself time and time again.
Loving my membership to Option Alpha because it allows me to focus just on placing trades, not a ton of research. I can working my day job, sitting in my office and make a few trades all without having to do a bunch of reading online.
Great JCP trade! Thanks for the alert!!! I've also did the same spread for Apr14, by mistake, but it worked out profitable anyway (+0.45 Apr)!
Great training Kirk. You are able to make these trading techniques and adjustments seem so basic and as commented, for some reason this type of education is not easy to find. I am in healthcare and have been spending about 2-6 hours a day for the last 1.5 years studying option trading.
It was a relief to find a education platform that was simple to understand and traded right there with you. I just went live about 8 months ago and my small account has seen about 50% growth using your techniques. I am working in Thailand currently and I enjoy trading in the evenings waiting on your alerts.
Enjoy the coaching sessions. Have been to some other webinars given by other presenters, but your presentations are quite clear. I have been to several of your training sessions, and am an active member. I have been trading in general for years, but have been trading options since December 2013.
I'm a student of the game and am always looking for an angle to improve. I get to (hopefully) retire from the teaching profession in 7 years, so I am looking for a way to produce an extra income stream during retirement. So I'm starting to hone my skills to that I can place options trades with confidence. I appreciate what you do and keep up the good work.
I got tired of fumbling around with the technical side of trading. I found myself spending more time 'tweaking' things than actually making option trades.
After watching to the video tutorials in the strategy section I don't worry as much before making a trade as I used to. The risk is taken care of with a small position, yet it still gives me enough flexibility to turn a nice profit.
Kirk taught me exactly what he said he would!
Hey Kirk doing fine, up $1220 so far this week with the last 16 trades. Amazing thanks!!!
Cannot thank Option Alpha enough for the option tutorial videos they put out. Helps me understand options plays a lot more and as they say helps me become a lot "smarter" trader out there.

Stewart's farewell gift is a flight to Beijing
Ex-MLA who stepped aside for Clark gets plum post
Vaughn Palmer, Vancouver SunPublished: Tuesday, October 29, 2013
When B.C. Liberal MLA Ben Stewart gave up his seat to Premier Christy Clark mere weeks after winning it in the May election, suspicious minds wondered if there had been any promise of a reward down the road.
The wealthy proprietor of Quails' Gate Winery probably didn't need the MLA salary or the pension he would forgo by leaving the legislature prematurely at the outset of his second term.
Still, politicians work hard to win their seats, even safe ones like Westside-Kelowna where Stewart won with 58 per cent of the vote.
Plus he had served as a minister in both the Gordon Campbell and Christy Clark administrations, and clearly liked being in politics.
What had it taken to persuade him to give up the job, so soon after securing it? Nothing, insisted both the outgoing MLA and his would-be successor, as they stood alongside each other to announce the news at his winery on June 5.
"Both Clark and Stewart said no inducement was offered, or made, to get Stewart to step aside," the Kelowna Capital News reported.
Stewart, who had to fight back the tears at one point in the news conference, said both the offer and the acceptance were all his own work.
"I'm pleased to be able to make the riding available to Premier Clark," he told reporters. "I want to ensure the premier gets a chance to deliver on not just a vision, but on some of the real things that we need to do for British Columbia."
The premier paid tribute to the departing MLA's selfless integrity. "He's not a man who did it because he needed to be asked," she said. "He did it because he has character."
Still, the whispering continued throughout the subsequent byelection, where Stewart campaigned tirelessly for the sometimes absent premier, further putting himself in her debt.
She won big on election night and again doused him with accolades: "Ben Stewart has served this community with integrity and commitment, with discipline, with focus, with hard work and, most of all, he has served this community with tremendous honour."
The ex-MLA promised to keep a hand in with the newly elected one: "I'm going to guide the premier in trying to make certain she understands local issues, and I'll continue to work with her to make sure she is as visible as she can be being the premier."
The premier promised to draw on his expertise and knowledge, while emphasizing that he would not be paid for his advice - nor had he asked to be paid.
There matters stood until Monday when the premier, again flanked by Stewart, announced in Vancouver that he was being appointed the province's new investment and trade commissioner to Asia.
Salary: $150,000 a year, or roughly what Stewart would have made serving as a cabinet minister, presuming he'd been reappointed after the election.
Base of operations: Beijing, with frequent travel to the province's other trade offices in the region.
Mandate: Ambitious, as will be seen by a trio of excerpts from a lengthy wish list: "Leverage and maximize key strategic opportunities identified and developed as a result of trade and investment missions of the premier and ministers."

Rio Ferdinand turned in a Man of the Match display in Manchester United's 1-0 Barclays Premier League win over Reading and he gained a majority percentage of the vote in ManUtd.com's official poll.
The 34 year-old centre-back was at his imperious best against Reading. And although the Royals didn't provide much of a goal threat at Old Trafford, Ferdinand still managed to turn on the style and gain 61 per cent of votes in ManUtd.com's Man of the Match poll.
Wayne Rooney's goal after 21 minutes came after a surging run out of defence from Rio and his class and quality on the ball, particularly when breaking out of defence, was a key feature of his performance.
Rooney was second in the poll with 22 per cent of the vote, while Ryan Giggs gleaned 12 per cent and Alexander Buttner completed the shortlist with 5 per cent, but Ferdinand was the undisputed winner.

Not What I Hoped For
I have quite dry, a little red and sensitive skin and this product just doesn't do it for me. It may be fantastic for people with slightly sensitive or dry skin, but for me it wasn't enough to really change my condition in any visible way. It didn't help nourish in the way I expected it to, which was a shame because there was such excitement about the KORA range that I really wanted to believe in it too. I found I had to re-apply numerous times during the day and it just wasn't doing its job. For me, it's not a winner.

Good as a night cream.
This particular cream is suitable for sensitive skin, which i have. I haven't found it to break me out in any pimples or rashes. But i do find it is far too oily and thick for day time use. I prefer to use this of an evening. I bought it ridiculosly cheap, in saying that i won't be purchasing this again. Not suited for me. Probably more for really dry skin.

I love the KORA range especially this moisturiser! I like that this is ideal for both day and night use meaning I don't need to fuss over using different products everyday. This moisturiser left my skin feeling really soft and didn't give me oily skin in the morning as other moisturisers do. I love the smell and knowing it's organic makes it that much better!

LOVE it!
I am a big fan of the Kora range! This is a cute sized day and night cream that will leave skin feeling soft and supple. You only need a tiny amount because a little does go a long way.
I use the Kora cream cleanser and then a toner and then this cream, I will leave it in for say 2 minutes to let it soak into my skin and then apply my tinted moisturizer or foundation.

This works really well with the cleansers and mists in the Kora line. The smell might not be for everyone because it does smell quite earthy and natural but i dont mind it. The smell does disappear once you put it on so dont be discouraged if you dont like the smell. This moisturiser is great because it contains alot of natural ingredients that act as a barrier on your skin to fight pollution and it also contains many antioxidants. This doesnt make the skin look greasy but does give it a nice glow. I have had no problems with dry skin after using this.

This is the best stuff for your lips! It feels so luxurious and velvety smooth, not at all waxy as the other lip balms out there. Apply before bedtime and you'll wake up with supersoft lips. It also helped heal my chapped hands during winter. Compared to other tubes, this one looks like a glue stick. I don't mind one bit.
This is one of my favorite lip products! I always have a Palmers stick handy...I keep them everywhere...in my purse, bathroom, on my nightstand. The smell is pleasant and soothing for me and the texture is smooth.
Ah, what a lovely product! It's like ChapStick for your body... I don't use it as a lipbalm, but it's great for rubbing on dry patches and I like to use it on the back of my hands as well. It's super moisturizing, doesn't leave my skin greasy, and soaks in quite nicely. Also, it has that yummy Palmer's smell that I love! I love the fact that it's portable and convenient as well. If you like the regular cocoa butter lotion, you'll like this stick.
Love the smell, but I hate the packaging for some reason. I wouldn't rebuy this particular product, but I love the rest of their line.
This is a great item and I bought several to keep in my personal stash. Extremely yummy cocoa scent and great for every part of the body! Huge stick tube so you get a lot for your money.
Just as great as the lotion but more portible..Great for lips,cheeks,elbow,knees etc..Very moisturizing and same yummy cocoa smell(warning..Will melt quickly so don't leave in a hot place.I learned the hard way)
Oooh, I like this! I bought it b/c I wanted a moisturizer that wouldn't leak all over the inside of my backpack, and now I can't stop applying it! Very good for ankles, elbows knuckles-- any dry patches, really-- and I like the mild chocolate scent a lot too. The only reason this gets a 4 instead of a 5 from me is I'm not sold on its use as a lip balm- I like my balm to leave a little more shine & this makes my lips look pale. But it will do in a pinch!
More reviews by shinejunkiemonkee
This is a great product. The smell is not as obnoxious as the lotion form (I think Palmer's should make all of their cocoa butter products smell like this). It's just smells like mild milk chocolate. It's very moisturizing and isn't shiney. I got two for the price of one, which is good because I went through this super fast -- and I almost never finish a tube of lipbalm (to be fair, I also use this on cuticles, elbows, ankles, knees, and other random patches of dry skin).
I really, really like this! I just bought it tonight and can't stop applying it!
My former fave balm in a stick was Neutrogena's, but this feels more soothing on my lips. I also like the fact that it does not make my lips shiny, just barely moist. It is not waxy at all.
Can't wait to get some more!!
Love this! After hearing raves about it as a lip balm, I tried it. I love it for lips, cuticles, dry patches, etc. Hand tube- not messy at all and CHEAP. Woohoo!

Now Mohammedans have taken Pakistan - it was part and parcel of the freedom, because Mohammedans refused to live with the Hindus. They had lived together for almost fourteen hundred years and there was no problem. In my childhood I have participated in Mohammedan celebrations; Mohammedans were participating in Hindu marriages, Hindu celebrations. There was no question of fight, because everybody was fighting the British empire. Once the British empire was leaving, suddenly the Mohammedans and Hindus became alert - a new division. They declared that they could not live together because their religions are different. Mohammedans became adamant: "Either the British empire remains.we can risk freedom, but we cannot live with Hindus in an independent country because they are in the majority. They will rule, and Mohammedans don't have any chance of ruling."
The situation became so ugly that there were only two alternatives. Either accept the slavery - which the British empire was not ready to continue - or to accept the division. The division was accepted; the country was divided into two parts. The Mohammedan part became Pakistan. But they were not aware, and neither were Indians aware that the Mohammedans got two parts - one part in the east, Punjab and Sindh, where they were in the majority, and another part far away, thousands of miles away in Bengal. Half of Bengal was Mohammedan.
So Pakistan became a strange country, and immediately.both parts were Mohammedan but Bengalis saw that they were being dominated by the Punjabi Mohammedans. The shift away from the division of religions was immediate; now it became a question of language. Bengali Mohammedans speak Bengali; the Punjabi speaks Punjabi. Now they forgot completely that they were together in the fight to gain Pakistan.
Finally, the Bengalis separated from Pakistan and created a new country, Bangladesh. The distance was so great that it was impossible for Pakistan to keep control over it. But the same situation goes on happening every day.
Forty years ago the constitution decided that Hindi should be the national language. But it has not been implemented because in India there are thirty languages. Taken as a whole the Hindi-speaking people are the majority, but if those twenty-nine languages are against it, then they are in the majority. Each single language is not capable of fighting against Hindi, but those twenty-nine languages together are a tremendous force. Now you cannot believe it - that they are all Hindus, and they have been killing other Hindus because they speak different languages! It is not a question that you can give all these thirty languages the status of a national language. Then suddenly you will find.for example Hindi is spoken in one way in one state, a slightly different way in another state. And there are five states - soon they will be fighting: "Our Hindi is the right Hindi and the others are only distortions."
Man has been trained to cut humanity into so many pieces on any excuse: religion, country, language, color. But the basic root is in teaching human beings that love is a limited phenomenon, and secondly, that love has varieties.
I am trying to say to you that love has no varieties. It may have different expressions - certainly the love between husband and wife will have a different expression than the love between the couple and their children. It will have a different expression, but the expression does not change the quality. It is the same love.

eBay signs on former Apple exec as new chief product officer
Summary: The online retail giant's new chief product officer previously oversaw the Worldwide E-Commerce Platform at Apple.
Apple has signed on a number of new high-profile executives (notably from the fashion world) to direct its product and retail units, but that inevitably means there are going to be some departures as well.
And Apple's loss appears to be eBay's gain this week as the online retail giant has named RJ Pittman to a newly created position for the company: chief product officer.
Pittman previously ran the Worldwide E-Commerce Platform at Apple. Along with being responsible for product management and commerce innovation, he was also tasked with integrating and expanding Apple's retail channels internationally.
During his tenure, he was said to have been responsible for expanding Apple's retail presence across 38 countries.
Prior to his stint in Cupertino, Pittman led Google's product management group, focusing primarily on consumer search and other product initiatives. He jumped ship from Mountain View in 2010.
Pittman was also CEO of two online commerce companies, Groxis Inc. and Digital Courier Technologies, and served as a a managing partner at venture capital firm Venture Factory.
Heading into eBay, Pittman will be primarily responsible for leading product and development strategy for eBay's core unit, Marketplaces, reporting to eBay President Devin Wenig.
Based on eBay's third quarter earnings report published on Wednesday, Pittman isn't necessarily hitting the ground running.
The Marketplaces department alone attracted 3.9 million more users during the quarter as well as $2 billion in revenue. eBay Marketplaces now has 124 million members, up 14 percent year-over-year.

A recent stimulus to the review process article by the United States Pharmacopoeia (USP) expert committee proposes a major
change to the way regulated laboratories develop, validate, and control analytical procedures. Is this Quality by Design (QbD)
for the chromatography laboratory?
In this column I want to focus on the heart of chromatographic analysis: The analytical method or procedure. Analytical procedure
development, validation, and transfer are key parts of the traditional process that starts, if you're lucky, with defining
what you want the method to do and ends up with the operational use of the procedure. In the middle is the stuff that should
be done properly but usually is not, as evidenced by how poorly a method operates in routine use. This is typically because
the method development and validation is performed by one group and the operation of the procedure is carried out by another.
In many instances the two groups rarely talk to each other except when things go wrong — and blame each other for the problems.
Of course, this never happens in your organization, does it?
In the Beginning .....
Robustness of an analytical procedure is defined in ICH Q2(R1) as:
A measure of its capacity to remain unaffected by small, but deliberate variations in method parameters and provides an indication
of its reliability during normal usage.
In the methodology section there is more information on the topic of robustness:
The evaluation of robustness should be considered during the development phase and depends on the type of procedure under
study. It should show the reliability of an analysis with respect to deliberate variations in method parameters. If measurements
are susceptible to variations in analytical conditions, the analytical conditions should be suitably controlled or a precautionary
statement should be included in the procedure. One consequence of the evaluation of robustness should be that a series of
system suitability parameters (for example, resolution test) is established to ensure that the validity of the analytical
procedure is maintained whenever used (3).
This is the interesting part — for a document focused on the validation of analytical procedures we have the statement that
robustness is actually a job to be performed during method development. How many people actually conduct robustness studies
when under time pressures? However, it does say that robustness depends on the method but then goes on to mention some variables
that could be considered when looking at high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) procedures:
In the case of liquid chromatography, examples of typical variations are:
Influence of variations of pH in a mobile phase;
Influence of variations in mobile phase composition;
Different columns (different lots and/or suppliers);
Flow rate (3).
Therefore, in my view, robustness should be undertaken for chromatographic methods, especially those involved in generating
data for making critical decisions.

BuzzFeed's "Apps for Women" Is Degrating

Since its inception in May 1995, South Beach's intimate EDGE/Theatre has garnered a reputation for venturing where no other local small theater dares to tread. Tucked away on the top floor of an Espanola Way gallery, the company has resurrected, with varying degrees of success, neglected work by Tennessee Williams and a one-act by Harold Pinter, a playwright whose challenging pieces have not been produced locally for several seasons. It has produced scripts about porn stars and male hustlers and doesn't flinch at featuring nudity or simulated sex acts on-stage (all in the service of art, of course). The space also serves as a venue for local directors unaffiliated with other theaters, including Matt Glass, Roberto Prestigiacomo, Peter Zaragoza, and Kevin Dean, and for original works by local playwrights, including Glass, Prestigiacomo, and Jim Tommaney. (Tommaney happens to be artistic director of the theater, but hey, what's a little nepotism in a world persistently unfriendly to struggling artists?)
Foraying, as it has done before, into the realms of sex, power, loneliness, and the search for love, EDGE has lined up three one-act plays: Subway, a world premiere monologue by New York actor-writer Chuck McMahon, gives voice to a disaffected, possibly drug-addicted young man; Bondage, by nationally acclaimed playwright David Henry Hwang (whose latest work Golden Child has been earning favorable notices at New York's Public Theatre) investigates the relationship between a dominatrix and her client in an S&M parlor; and The Problem, an early offering by A.R. Gurney, Jr., the American theater's foremost chronicler of WASP ennui, delineates the elaborate games played by a bored married couple.
On paper, the presentation of this trio seems a compelling and quirky way to limn the mysteries of the human heart. In execution, however, the productions fail to satisfy. Although each one flares at isolated moments with energy and a modicum of insight, the evening as a whole is marred by Kevin Dean's unimaginative direction and a series of stilted performances devoid of nuance.
McMahon's 1995 Subway leads the pack. Anyone who has ridden the New York City transit system has encountered the character in this opening piece, or at least someone very much like him. Using a train ride as the framework for the monologue, McMahon introduces us to a disheveled street kid with nowhere to go, but plenty of attitude. Like many homeless public transportation riders with a story to tell but no listeners, this young man claims a subway car as his stage and regales passengers (in this case invisible ones) with philosophy, perceptions about humanity, and snippets of his personal life. While "audience members" on the real subway might chuckle quietly at a trenchant observation or two, they would probably change seats or bury their faces in newspapers so as not to encourage him. By shaping a street person's ramblings into an intelligible story and sustaining that story throughout a 100-block trip, McMahon forces us, in theory anyway, to listen to a sometimes funny but mostly sad tale told by someone we would otherwise tune out. But this uninspired production does very little to illuminate McMahon's material. As if we really were on a ride with a semicoherent passenger, we stop paying attention long before the end of the journey.
Actor Teo Castellanos certainly looks the part. Unshaven, with hollowed-out cheeks, sharp facial bones, and a glazed look in his eyes, he appears not to have eaten in days. Wearing a ratty bandanna and rumpled, baggy clothes, he convincingly mimes moving from strap to pole on a subway car and, for added effect, his leg shakes to the rhythm of the moving train. (Or are those the involuntary tremors of a junkie?) But he makes the big mistake of never, not once during the entire monologue, establishing eye contact with the audience. (Here the blame must also be placed at the feet of director Dean for not drawing the actor outside himself.) Since Castellanos makes no effort to connect with us, his internalized, self-involved characterization elicits more impatience than sympathy; ultimately, we simply don't care.
The next, and the most provocative, of the three, David Henry Hwang's Bondage, starts off with a compelling premise and the hint of engaging comic performances. Eventually, though, as the long-winded script overstates its points about ethnic and gender stereotyping, as the actors begin repeating themselves, and as the staging grows redundant, the production runs out of steam.
Bondage was commissioned by the Humana Festival at the Actors' Theater of Louisville in 1992. In the script Hwang, best known for the captivating, 1988 Tony Award-winning M. Butterfly, uses the ritualized, highly theatrical practices of sadomasochism to wrestle with themes that have concerned him in much of his work, including identity, sexuality, and immigrant assimilation into American culture. The action takes place in a bondage parlor, where a dominatrix named Terri (played by Lisa B., as she calls herself in the program) draws a salary by fulfilling her customers' fantasies. On this particular day, she and a client named Mark (Robert T.), both dressed in black leather from head to toe, including hoods, are role-playing different races: First, Terri is a blond WASP and Mark is an Asian man; next Terri pretends to be a tough-talking black woman while Mark becomes a liberal white dude; when Mark returns to playing an Asian guy, Terri counters him as an Asian woman. With each shift Hwang has the pair sling stereotypes at each other, driving home the idea of how ethnic labeling imprisons us: By pigeonholing, we keep our emotional distance and protect ourselves from ever getting close.
