"Somebody's going to be in a lot of trouble," Azar says curtly when reached at his Denver office. The "somebody" to whom Azar is referring is a new corporation called the Litigation Finance Group. LFG offers money up front to those who have been injured in an accident, in exchange for a lien on "any and all proceeds" of the borrowers' anticipated settlements. Conveniently, of course, LFG also offers borrowers "free lawyer referral."
Which, according to Azar, they're going to need.
Azar says that so far he's had two clients ask him to sign on to an LFG lien--basically promising the company "any and all proceeds" from their settlement--including anything paid to the attorney. The way Azar reads it, it's like agreeing to represent a client for free.
"No attorney in their right mind is going to sign a lien like that," Azar says. He certainly didn't. And when he refused, his clients went back to LFG and asked for the "free referral" that is so heavily advertised. They got it. Both of them were referred to an attorney by the name of Edward C. Kusick Jr.
Kusick denies that he has cooked up any deal with LFG, but Azar isn't convinced.
"It's like a bait and switch," Azar says. "People are desperate, they get hurt, and they have to get money right away...but these guys won't give it to them until they see Kusick." Azar says one of his former clients told him outright that LFG would not give him a loan until he saw Edward Kusick.
Azar isn't the only one upset about the deal. Bill Keating of Fogel, Keating and Wagner, a Denver workers' compensation firm, says one of the owners of Litigation Finance Group called his firm and asked if Fogel, Keating would take referrals from LFG. "Then there was an additional piece of information conveyed," says Keating. "The essence of it was [LFG] needs lawyers who will guarantee repayment of a loan. Colorado statutes prohibit liens to be filed against workmen's compensation. At that point we declined to be involved, because I don't know how you can be involved with a lending program at the same time you're representing a client. It seems to me it's a clear conflict of interest."
Both Keating and Azar say they smelled a rat from the moment they saw LFG's newspaper advertisement, which promises loans with "No interest/No application fee." As Keating puts it: "It tends to make you wonder, how does the person who's lending the money get compensated for lending the money? Banks charge interest...but apparently this company doesn't."
That and a number of other questions about LFG's practices remain unanswered by the company's principals, Dale Sande, Michael Steinke and attorney William E. Peters. Peters and Steinke could not be reached for comment. The name Steinke may raise eyebrows among some radio insiders. DJ Michael Floorwax, from station KRFX/The Fox, fiercely tries to keep his real name, Michael Steinke, private. When asked whether he is the same Michael Steinke who is an LFG owner, Floorwax doesn't come to the phone but relays a "no comment" through operations manager Jack Evans. (The station itself isn't completely mum; LFG has advertised on the Fox.) Dale Sande refuses to return repeated phone calls from Westword--even after assurances from Sande and his secretary that he will.
Other local attorneys are only too glad to talk. Stephen Kaufman, another Denver lawyer specializing in personal injury, has complained by letter to the Colorado Bar Association's ethics committee chair about LFG's advertised practices. "When you have attorneys working with groups that loan money, you run into a problem with who everyone's loyalty is to," Kaufman says. "If you're depending on LFG for referral to cases, rather than risk a situation of making these guys mad, you may encourage your client to settle the case for less than you would've, to guarantee repayment of the loan."
And that's the reason, say Kaufman and Al Wolfe, state bar ethics committee chairman, that Colorado prohibits attorneys from either paying money for referrals or lending clients money for anything except case-related expenses.
But, says Wolfe, it's not evident that LFG or Kusick are doing either.
"If they're totally separate entities," Wolfe says, "there doesn't seem to be anything wrong with it."
Which is exactly what Kusick claims is the case.
"I don't know why they refer to me," he says. "I'm not paying them for referrals." And, Kusick says, he owns no part of LFG and hasn't received any money from it.
But there is a connection between LFG and Kusick: Peters, an LFG principal, just happens to be Kusick's old law partner.
"I used to practice law with him, yeah," Kusick confirms. "I was an employee at a firm called Peters and Murphy, and then I had an association with Bill Peters, under the firm of Peters and Kusick."

Birmingham Connected
Redevelopment of the Paradise area of the city centre will start in 2015. Read more.
Birmingham Connected sets a new direction for transport. It ushers in a new era of choice for how we move people and goods, deliver projects and infrastructure, and fund these developments.
We will reinforce transport's role in continuing to create a successful, vibrant, healthy and green city.
The Birmingham Connected White Paper, launched on 13 November 2014, follows on from the Birmingham Mobility Action Plan Green Paper. It is directly linked to the strategies and policies of the Birmingham Development Plan (BDP), which sets out our strategy for jobs and growth, meeting housing needs and sustainable progress.
Birmingham Connected Technical Package 5: Access Strategy for People with Disabilities (Size: 382 Kb Type: PDF )
Investing in a radically improved integrated transport system will realise the city's potential to support sustainable economic growth, job creation and linking communities.
The vision of Birmingham Connected is to create a transport system which puts the user first and delivers the connectivity that people and businesses require. We will improve people's daily lives by making travel more accessible, more reliable, safer and healthier and using investment in transport as a catalyst to improve the fabric of our city. We also want to use the transport system as a way of reducing inequalities across the city by providing better access to jobs, training, healthcare and education as well as removing barriers to mobility.
Birmingham Connected's five core objectives are:
- Efficient Birmingham - Birmingham Connected will facilitate the city's growth agenda in the most efficient and sustainable way possible, strengthening its economy and boosting jobs.
- Equitable Birmingham - Birmingham Connected will facilitate a more equitable transport system; linking communities together and improving access to jobs and services.
- Sustainable Birmingham - Birmingham Connected will specifically reduce the impacts of air and noise pollution, greenhouse gas emissions and energy consumption.
- Healthy Birmingham - Birmingham Connected will contribute to a general raising of health standards across the city through the promotion of walking and cycling and the reduction of air pollution.
- Attractive Birmingham - Birmingham Connected will contribute to enhancing the attractiveness and quality of the urban environment in local centres, key transport corridors and the city centre.
We were pleased to welcome The Rt Hon Patrick McLoughlin MP, Secretary of State for Transport, to the Birmingham Connected launch event. A transcript of his speech is now available.

Former Illini Player Convicted of Manslaughter
Former Illini standout and Dallas Cowboys defensive tackle Josh Brent has been found guilty of intoxication manslaughter for a fiery wreck that killed his teammate and close friend, Jerry Brown.
Brent showed no reaction as the jury in Dallas rendered its verdict.
The accident happened in December 2012 after a night of partying. The two were headed home when Brent lost control of his Mercedes, which burst into flames.
Officers who arrived on scene said Brent was seen trying to pull Brown's body from the wreckage.
Tests showed Brent's blood alcohol level was twice the legal limit.
The 25-year-old from Bloomington faces up to 20 years in prison, though probation is also possible.

Defendant Advised Clients To Conceal Money In Offshore Accounts
WASHINGTON D.C. - Eileen J. O'Connor, Assistant Attorney General for the Tax Division, Department of Justice; Daniel Bogden, U.S. Attorney for the District of Nevada; and Nancy Jardini, Chief, Internal Revenue Service Criminal Investigation Division, announced today that at the federal courthouse in Reno, Nevada, Lawrence Turpen pled guilty to a felony charge of conspiracy to defraud the IRS. U.S. District Judge David W. Hagen reserved his decision whether to formally accept Mr. Turpen's guilty plea until sentencing, which was scheduled for October 18, 2004.
"People who promise to eliminate taxes by hiding income and assets from the IRS are offering a sure path to trouble," said Assistant Attorney General Eileen J. O'Connor. "Those who participate in such schemes risk criminal prosecution by the Department of Justice and a lengthy stay in federal prison. In the end, they will still owe the taxes, plus interest and possible penalties."
"The government will not tolerate abusive tax schemes that promote the use of offshore accounts to illegally escape taxes," said Nancy Jardini, IRS Chief, Criminal Investigation. "Those Americans who file accurate, honest and timely returns can be assured that the government will hold accountable those who don't."
In his plea agreement, Mr. Turpen admitted that he became a full-time financial consultant specializing in international investing and tax planning, beginning in or about 1987 after retiring from a career in dentistry. He solicited clients at speaking engagements; through his 1990 book, "Offshore Options for Small Business"; and through a website advertising his products and services.
To impede the IRS from assessing and collecting of clients' individual and business income taxes, Mr. Turpen advised his clients to conceal their personal or domestic business income in offshore entities located in countries that did not provide financial information to the United States. Mr. Turpen also helped his clients structure sham business transactions to make it appear as if their personal or domestic business income had been earned by the offshore entities. He also told clients not to report their ownership interests in the offshore entities and to use nominees or administrators to further conceal the true ownership and control. Mr. Turpen helped his clients repatriate the untaxed money by advising them to create fictitious loans from their offshore entities to pay for personal purchases, including cars and homes. He also counseled his clients to have the offshore entities pay for personal vacations or give untaxed "educational grants" to their children.
For his conviction of conspiracy to defraud the United States (18 U.S.C. §371), Mr. Turpen faces a maximum potential sentence of five years imprisonment followed by up to three years supervised release, and a $250,000 fine.
Assistant Attorney General O'Connor thanked Tax Division Trial Attorneys Caryn D. Mark, Edmund P. Power and John J. Kaleba, who prosecuted the case. She also thanked the special agents of the Internal Revenue Service, whose assistance was essential to the successful investigation and prosecution of the case.

Meera Pal, wtop.com
WASHINGTON - Entering her third year of college, Kelly Young has watched as friends who graduated several years ago continue to look for employment.
Watching their difficulty and seeing the U.S. economy continue to worsen, Young, 20, has begun to consider delaying her entry into the troubled job market to instead attend graduate school.
"Watching my friends struggle to find jobs and get their lives started after college has certainly made me anxious as to what will really happen when I get my bachelor's degree," the University of California at Irvine student tells WTOP.
"Nobody I have talked to has set forth an optimistic outlook on what the economic situation will be like in two or three years, so that definitely makes me feel like my odds of getting a job right out of college won't be any better."
Young, like an overwhelming majority of her peers, is modifying her dreams for the future given the current economic uncertainty and constraints.
In a recent poll by non-profit Generation Opportunity, 77 percent of 18- to 29-year-olds said they are delaying major life changes due to a number of economic factors, such as high youth unemployment, the increasing national debt and federal spending.
"We actually see this as part of the untold story of the long-term impact in human terms of the economic downturn in a very, very tight job market," says Paul T. Conway, president of Generation Opportunity and former chief of staff of the U.S. Department of Labor. "We actually think this will play out for many, many years, beyond any point of recovery."
D.C.resident Matt Hittle, 25, finished his undergraduate degree in 2009, "in the depths of the recession."
He says he "left commencement like thousands of other new grads -- jobless."
After applying to dozens of jobs and internships to no avail, Hittle's mentor suggested he take the GRE and enroll in graduate school.
Graduate school allowed him to delay the job hunt and gave him better footing in the job market. He made professional contacts and developed marketable skills. He now works on Capitol Hill.
"Though my grad school education started out as a reaction to having no job, I realize in hindsight that the workload and teaching responsibilities forced me to a level of maturity I wouldn't have developed if I had gone straight into a job," Hittle said.
Conway says while a majority of young adults are frustrated with having to change life plans, they are confident of their own abilities to navigate the landscape.
"There is frustration with what has been presented to them in terms of debt, and economic opportunity," he says. "But they are optimistic in their own potential to make a significant difference in the direction of the country. You're seeing a generation that is used to and expects and demands change."
The survey by Generation Opportunity also found that 54 percent of Millennials believe America is on the wrong track, 56 percent believe the wrong leadership is in Washington and 69 percent say political leaders do not reflect the interests of young Americans.
Julia Druhan, 27, who is in graduate school at Georgetown University for a master's degree in public policy, points to the debt ceiling debate. She says it unnecessarily became a big political circus.
"I'm both overwhelmed by the political banter and the rhetoric that made this into a worse problem then it needed to be, and my annoyance and frustration came from the sort of unwillingness on both parts," she says.
Conway says the views of this generation are significant indicators of the general direction, outlook and overall mood of the American public.
While a majority of Millennials are feeling frustrated at having to put off major life decisions like marriage, investing and home buying, some are actually using the dip in national home prices and low interest rates to enter the housing market.
John Higgins is one of those individuals. Higgins, 27, originally from Baltimore, purchased a house in Fort Mills, S.C. about two years ago.
"The market had started its decline so deals were good," he says. "Eventually, I was able to strike a good enough deal to pull the trigger."
"Right now things have continued on the downward slope, but I got in on the downward slope."
Higgins also recently got married, which he says was a good thing for him and his wife economically.

Reinvigorate people's homes with a renovation service.
Business At A Glance
Startup Costs: $10,000 - $50,000
Home Based: Can be operated from home.
Part Time: Can be operated part-time.
Franchises Available? Yes
Online Operation? No
Business OverviewCapitalize on your carpentry and construction skills and cash in on the ever growing multibillion-dollar home improvement industry by starting your own renovation service. Small additions, basement remodels, carport conversions, painting and drywall, fencing, siding, and general cosmetic changes all fall under the umbrella of home renovations. You can keep your start-up costs to a minimum by renting more expensive tools and equipment on an as-needed basis, and buy these items from the profits you earn. You will need to brush up on your estimating skills, so calling other renovation contractors in you area and asking about costs for the various improvement service they offer is a good way to get handle on the competition's pricing. Skills that you may lack can be contracted out to qualified tradespeople, especially the more specialized work like tile flooring, electrical and plumbing, and insulating. Quality workmanship and reliability are essential to prosper in this industry, as it is not uncommon for top renovation companies to do strictly repeat and referral business, without the aid of any advertising.

This story was written for World Pulse's Women Weave the Web Digital Action Campaign. Learn more »
Thank you
Thank you so much for sharing. You really highlighted not only the benefits of ICT but also the barriers and solutions. I think you have great ideas and your voice will help to express those solutions and help to empower you and women around you that may feel they do not have the voice.
Thanks again so much,
Great story Masoso, Thank you
Great story Masoso,
Thank you for sharing your views on how we can benefit from ICT use for development. your statement "I see that ICT as very interesting because we can express our selves and learn many things and our knowledge gets better everday'' catchy. One step at a time we should target and focus our actions and advocacy efforts towards breaking the said barriers. I suggest we mobilize more women to appreciate the need for ICT for development then they can demand for it.
Thank you for sharing your story from your community
Yes, teach those women!
Dear Masoso,
Thank you for your passionate explanation of the ways in which the Web could connect Congolese women if computers were provided and if all women could learn to read and write. Yes, the best way to empower those women who cannot yet read and write is to find ways to teach them how, through volunteers, raising funds for teachers, spreading the word any way you can.
Everything good in our world started with one voice, and your voice is a strong one, Masoso. My hope for you and your community is that you can indeed gather others around you to raise your voices together and help the women in your country to connect to the world through reading, writing and the Web.
I wish you endurance and much support,
- Sarah
Sarah Whitten-Grigsby
Hi Masoso, The web not only
Hi Masoso,
The web not only allows you to connect to others, but it allows us to connect with you. Thank you for sharing your story and know that you have a loud and important voice among us. Thank you for opening YOUR world to ME. I think the most important step that you outlined was getting computers and internet access out to rural areas . How many computers does your community have? How many women do you know have access to them? Do more men have access? Another important point was the lack of literacy among women. Do you find that women drop put of school more often then men? How can we keep girls in school to learn to read and write and then lead them to the computer? In your mind , how can people outside of the Congo help? Thank you again for your story. I stand with you sister.
How the Internet is helping women
Hello Masoso,
Thank you for sharing your article. You mention how women in the DR Congo feel connected with others around the world, yet many girls and women are illiterate. I'd like to see your ideas about getting girls into schools and what an education would mean to the DR Congo when those girls become adults. You bring up several needs that the Internet can support: helping women get outside their homes; learning to start a business so they can earn money; increased confidence when women know they are not alone and have value to others. What do you suggest about ending the limited access to the Internet? Keep writing and sharing, Masoso. Good job.
Masoso, thank you for this
thank you for this brief yet very important piece on how the internet made our world smaller, and all of us open to each other and exposed to people of different nations and cultures.
Please, keep us enlightened on the situation of women in Congo. Only by letting the world know what the challenged are, we can address these challenges!
keep your voice rising,
"Always be a first-rate version of yourself, instead of a second-rate version of somebody else."
—Judy Garland
Your strong voice
It is very inspiring to read your words and the vision that you are creating for ICT in DR Congo. It is helpful that you are addressing the challenges at all the different levels, from education, to social change, to funding. Knowing the challenges makes the solutions easier to propose. Your vision makes me excited to hear more of the strong voices of women in your community. Your strong voice will help to make very positive changes for so many women! Keep writing, please, and letting us know what will help to make this vision a reality!

Teaching the World
It sounds like you are a born teacher. By sharing your very well-considered story, you are teaching us how we can help, the more detailed the call for help the better. Have you seen examples of women starting businesses using the internet? Has reaching out resulted in more resources? How is your life better and how could it be even better yet with more access?
Your story of the power of connecting could be the motivation that helps other women in your country learn the technology that will allow them to meet their community's needs. Thank you for sharing. I wish you all the opportunities in the world.
telling stories; creating communities
The nature of invention
Thank you so much for your voice, Masoso Antoinette (I am sorry, I do not know if Antoinette or Masoso is your first name, so I address you by your full name).
You identify so clearly the barriers women face in accessing the internet in rural eastern Democratic Republic of Congo - computers are expensive, internet access is expensive and often hard to find, and women are often not able to read and write. I have seen this for myself, during three visits I made to North Kivu several years ago.
But I also saw how ingenious people were, how much possibility they saw in the community, and how much they wanted to look after each other.
I saw an outdoor classroom, built from whatever was available in the community, after managers of a womens' sewing project realized that the women could not count. And once the women learned to count, they wanted to learn to read - and so they did.
I watched people communicate via radio (in an area without electricity) by using their mobile phones - so that they would phone in to the host's mobile phone and he would hold his phone up to the microphone, so that everyone could hear the words.
I was so inspired by that outdoor classroom and that low-tech communications solution, because it showed me that people were not prepared to sit back and wait for someone else to help them - they used what they had, to meet their own needs.
Do you know about the Barefoot College in India, and how they train grandmothers (who do not know how to read and write) to build, install and maintain solar power in their villages? http://www.barefootcollege.org/solutions/solar-solutions/solar-lighting/
They have been training grandmothers in Africa as well as India - I would be so happy if some grandmothers from eastern DRC would become barefoot solar engineers and bring light to their villages.
Best wishes,
Following up
Dear Masoso:
Thanks for your reply. I am glad you liked the Barefoot College site. I would be so delighted if grandmothers from eastern DRC became barefoot solar engineers :)
I remember the two villages in North Kivu where people were trying to create mini hydro power projects to bring electricity to their villages. They had lots of energy but not always the technical expertise to achieve their dreams. I tried a number of times to find resources for them, without success. Then last year, I found a UN program that was working on providing information and support for renewable energy generation in Africa, and sent the information to my friends in Centre de Resolutions des Conflits in Beni. I was delighted that CRC was able to connect with the program and are now part of its network.
CRC staff have lots of excellent ideas and regularly bring people together from around the region to share information. They started working on bringing combatants back from the bush and then realized that they needed to work on creating practical economic alternatives for them within villages - and they have done a lot in that area.
What kind of projects or challenges are you working on, and what kind of ideas and information would you find most useful?
Best wishes,
Staying in touch
Hi Masoso.
I am sorry I didn't see your message earlier; I have had to be offline as I had a bad cold for a few days.
I will email you so you have my email address - I don't like to post my address publicly.
One site you might want to have a look at is Practical Action. It has a lot of ideas, and plans, for such things as small scale hydro power.
Small-scale hydro power information is at http://practicalaction.org/simple-ideas-micro-hydro
Small scale wind power information is at http://practicalaction.org/small-scale-wind-power
Solar power information is at http://practicalaction.org/solar-power-3

US Steel's 3Q results to include $1.8B chargeOctober 18, 2013 @ 2:29 pm
PITTSBURGH (AP) - U.S. Steel Corp. says its third-quarter financial results will include a non-cash "goodwill" impairment charge of $1.8 billion, reflecting an adjustment in the value of its steel-making operations.
The Pittsburgh-based company said Friday that the move is driven primarily by the impact of the lengthy economic recovery, excess global steelmaking capacity and lower prices for steel products.
The charge applies to US Steel's North American flat-rolled and Texas Operations units.
U.S. Steel says that the charge will not affect its liquidity or compliance with debt covenants.
Companies are required to take a goodwill charge if they determine that the carrying value of an asset exceeds its fair value.
U.S. Steel shares fell 5 cents in extended trading after closing up 32 cents at $23.98.

Do you think they might just put all schools on managed service in the name of cost savings? I remember when a lot of catering/cleaning jobs were TUPE'd over to the private sector for this reason.
The majority of secondary schools in North Tyneside are listed, but not ours. I think we have a couple who got funding as path finder projects, the majority are going to miss out though.That list only includes areas that had already started BSF planning, if your area hadn't then it won't be on the list
Do you think they might just put all schools on managed service in the name of cost savings? I remember when a lot of catering/cleaning jobs were TUPE'd over to the private sector for this reason.
I can't see that happening, I'm not sure but part of the managed ICT bit was an incentive of say £1500 per pupil initial investment. Then the school would have to carry on this investment based on what they spend now, so basically outsourcing what they spend now on IT to an external company. I think that initial investment comes from the government, so that is now shafted. or is a combined bribe from the builder and an IT company, no builder=no managed ITDo you think they might just put all schools on managed service in the name of cost savings?

We're unaffected, but loads of schools in Kent are - even some of the academy schools are labelled 'for discussion'
I think we are just a little bit too far down the process of our new build for them to back track now thankfully. I know quite a few people here are not in favour of BSF for various reasons, but for us we really need new premises, we're out growing our current buildings very quickly.

should have styaed in bleedy oldham
couple of schools down the road to me have been stopped. its sad that we wont get any new schools but glad we wont see the IT side of things get all silly with managed services.
Ours is stopped
Ours is stopped, Big cheers and free beers all round!
Unaffected - RM here i come
I wonder if we will see a 'new' initiative from the Govt.... "Building Academies for the Future" in a few months time?
The amount of money committed to BSF per year is quite modest compared to the overall national debt and it would only be natural that any new Govt would want to promote its flagship policies rather than be seen to sustain the previous administrations flagship policy..... cue Free schools and expansion of Academy programme.......
Maybe the Govt thinking is those schools who were due for rebuild will now be encouraged to apply to become academies?
They are going to be under pressure to maintain capital spending to support the building industry & suppliers, so they might as well spend money on their 'pet' projects as NewLabours? They will also be under pressure from their MPs & supporters who will have to face the public & explain why their children cannot have a new school...

I think the problem that the govt currently has is that first they have to remove the 25% of public spending that is 'borrowed', and then look at savings to start repaying the deficit. Once these have been worked out then plans can be laid out for future spending. In all honesty, I cant see any govt letting schools rot completely. The political damage would be far to much, however I would not be at all surprised if a large scale maintenance and renovation program being initiated at a fraction of the cost of a BSF school.

This are great cards, I love them. I send them every holiday to my family and friends.

They have pages of cards for Easter & Christmas & 1 card for Passover. They don't have links for any Jewish Cards and you really have to search there site of your looking for one. They take your $$ quick, but try to get in touch with them. They don't respond to your emails, they have no phone number if you want to call them & try searching the net for their location. There isn't one.
I paid them last yr & tried to stop them taking another yr out of my checking account. I couldn't, they wouldn't answer my emails. I had to go to my bank & put a stop payment that cost me 28 bucks to stop them from taking another year out
Want to do business with a company like this for what you say are clever little cards. Go ahead. I wouldn't spend one penny at a site like this & won't respond to your emails

But it was during my college days in New York City that my affair with food really began. Over the course of the decade I lived there, I read and religiously clipped the food columns in New York magazine and The New York Times, quoted the Zagat restaurant survey more accurately than I did Shakespeare, spent most of my book money at the Upper West Side gourmet emporium Zabar's, and learned how to truss a chicken (among other things) from the charming chef Michael Romano of the famous Union Square Cafe.
I also managed occasional field trips to the local culinary temples, including Le Cirque, the Russian Tea Room, the Quilted Giraffe, Le Bernardin, Chanterelle, Lutece, and Peter Luger's -- thanks mostly to invitations from fellow foodies with trust funds or expense accounts.
318 Miracle Mile
Coral Gables, FL 33134
Category: Restaurant > Thai
Region: Coral Gables/South Miami
Despite my obsession with New York's gustatory offerings, I still often found it difficult to decide where to eat in a city of thousands of restaurants, especially on a student's budget. When I wasn't starving myself in anticipation of a meal that sometimes ended up costing almost as much as airfare home to Miami at Christmastime, I explored the many ethnic enclaves that pepper the metropolis. From Brighton Beach to Bensonhurst to Chinatown to Little India, there were innumerable kitchens dishing up extraordinary fare for next to nothing. The challenge, of course, was to find some gem that hadn't yet been "discovered" -- and therefore ruined -- by an almighty critic. Then and now my method for locating a good ethnic eatery, though frequently effective, is hardly scientific.
First, the place has to smell good before the door is even opened. Second, the lights cannot be too harsh or too dim (I like to see what I'm eating). And a restaurant always gets extra points if it is slightly out of the way, say on a side street, in a basement, or on a second floor. More than two credit card logos pasted on the window makes me suspicious, as does an empty dining room. A mob scene is almost worse. Too many people can mean a long wait for a table and a meal. Plus, an "in" spot usually attracts a high percentage of tender-tongued Anglos. You know the type: People who wreck it for everyone else by insisting on ordering spicy dishes and then sending them back because of their incendiary kick. After a few such scenarios, of course, waiters learn to humor would-be fire-eaters: "You like it hot? Okay, very spicy."
Finally, I confess to employing that age-old (and probably politically incorrect) strategy of judging how authentic a restaurant is based on the number of customers who look as though they share the same ethnicity as the food. A dim-sum place without at least one Asian grandma hunched over a portion of chicken feet while her relatives slurp soup from bowls doesn't rate with me.
Using this battery of tests to gauge the Coral Gables Thai eatery Lotus Garden would disqualify it immediately. It fails on every single count. Still, in Miami-Dade County (where, according to the most recent census, slightly more than one percent of the population is Asian) I've learned that word of mouth is worth more than appearances. And since I had been hearing raves about this place and had tried it only once back when it was located in a dark and tiny storefront just across the parking lot from the Publix at Le Jeune and Andalusia, I thought it warranted a visit at its new digs. This past January, in order to compete on equal footing, the Lotus Garden moved across the street from the more upscale Thai Orchid.
The new dining room is nearly twice the size of the old place, and can accommodate at least 60 people at its large and well-spaced tables. Unfortunately, what the restaurant has gained in size it has lost in charm. The decor, dominated by shiny, salmon-pink walls, is accented with garishly striped wallpaper reminiscent of an old-fashioned ice-cream parlor; landscapes framed in gaudy, gold-tone frames; travel posters; silk flower arrangements; and glaring, overhead fluorescent lights that serve only to highlight the cheap, synthetic tablecloths and napkins. Along the back wall is a large aquarium stocked with brightly colored exotic fish.
When a girlfriend and I visited on a recent afternoon, several dozen people -- many of them dressed in crisp suits -- occupied the spic-and-span dining room. From our seats along the front window we looked out at Thai Orchid's purple neon sign.
A waiter, a son of the owners of Lotus Garden, explained why the family chose to make such a bold move: "Our lease was up, and we had this place in mind for a while. They [Thai Orchid] have their own customers. But we have a very loyal customer base. Otherwise we couldn't have done it."
Those customers, mostly UM students and Coral Gables office workers, have always been especially fond of the restaurant's budget-priced lunch specials. We chose from a selection of more than twenty, all priced at around $5, with each including soup of the day and fried rice. We splurged on an order of egg rolls to start. The crisp, golden cylinders looked and tasted like your basic Chinese takeout variety, complete with overly sugary dipping sauce. Filled mostly with shredded lettuce and celery, these appetizers were hot and filling but unimpressive.
The hot-and-sour soup was also disappointing. As sweet and thick as maple syrup, the broth was hot only to the touch. It had neither spice nor zing. Instead, the brown, almost gelatinous stew tasted something like the pineapple-tinged duck sauce you find in plastic packets. In the soup were the usual canned vegetables, including baby corn, straw mushrooms, and bamboo shoots. Bits of fresh scallion and wood ear mushrooms added some welcome bite, but couldn't salvage this concoction.
A main dish of sauteed basil shrimp was composed of a handful of tiny but meticulously cleaned crustaceans that were overcooked, underseasoned, and served with a mound of fluffy and steaming white rice. Faded basil leaves floated impotently in a mono-flavored sweet brown sauce.
The pad Thai, a half-plate of pale and perfectly pliant noodles, was delicately laced with a sweet -- almost caramelly -- coating. Too bad only a few bland shrimp and a wisp of cilantro provided any contrast to the luscious noodles. I longed for a traditional Thai seasonings rack of chilies, hand-ground peanuts, fish sauce, sugar, and lime to doctor it up. As it was, I felt as though I was watching a favorite Saturday morning cartoon show in black and white.
With lunch prices so cheap, I thought it would only be fair to try Lotus Garden again some evening, and order from the regular à la carte menu. I brought along my husband, as well as a couple who have traveled throughout Asia and who appreciate good food. When we arrived at about 8:00 p.m. on a Thursday night, we had our pick of almost any table. With the exception of a Spanish-speaking trio near the door and a couple illuminated from behind by the bluish glow of the aquarium, the restaurant was ours.
We settled at a table across from a glossy bar, which serves wine and beer. Of the four of us, only two wanted wine, and so we ordered by the glass. At our waiter's suggestion we chose a French Bordeaux. "It's a sweet Chinese- French wine that goes with spicy food," he explained.
While studying the lengthy menu, which offers more than 100 main courses, we ordered three appetizers to share. A chicken satay bore no relation to the version sold by the ubiquitous vendors on the streets of southern Thailand. There, a complex melange of seasonings and pickles enhance the creamy taste of coconut-marinated chicken pieces. Here, there was no such subtlety. (Luckily, the wine was, as the waiter promised, a great complement to the food.) Plump and juicy strips of white meat arrived on a flaming pot of Sterno -- it nearly singed my eyelashes -- accompanied by a smear of thick peanut sauce and a limp cucumber salad. The chicken, though moist and tender, was flavorless; the pasty dipping sauce and lifeless salad not much better.
A signature appetizer, Lotus Garden shrimps, consisted of neat little packets stuffed with a delicate and flavorful filling of whole shrimps, minced pork, crab, and scallion. They would have been sublime had they not been marred by the gummy, deep-fried egg-roll wrappers.
The best starter was tiger's tear, a perky salad of spiced beef strips surrounded with crispy raw onions, scallions, and lettuce. Hot and refreshing at the same time, this dish was the only one that evoked even a vague memory of the exciting tastes of true Thai cooking, in which sweet and sour, hot and cool are carefully orchestrated to create an explosion of flavors that reveal themselves gradually with each new bite.
Main courses were even less inspired than the appetizers. Pla jearn, a whole snapper served fried, was drowning in a sea of sweet brown sauce speckled with colorful vegetables, notably onions and red and green peppers. The same sauce smothered three of our four entrees, and bore an uncanny resemblance to the hot and sour soup I'd sampled the week before. The fish was so overcooked that neither the eyes nor cheeks (delicacies) were edible -- or even identifiable.
The crispy duck was far from crisp. Instead of the characteristic crunchy layer of skin the dish ought to have had, these dark hunks of fowl were surrounded by globs of fat and the ever-present brown sauce.
By the time we ordered dessert, the restaurant had filled with a diverse -- but decidedly Western -- crowd of at least 40 patrons. Thai donuts, little brown balls of fried dough (like a miniature version of the elephant ears you can buy at an outdoor fair), were an appropriate finish to the tawdry meal. We dunked the crispy morsels into a dish of condensed milk and lamented the loss of what once seemed destined to be a great addition to this nation's culinary landscape.
Wasn't it only a few short years ago that Thai food made its debut and captured the fancy of the American palate? As it turns out, in true immigrant fashion the imaginative cuisine has already been assimilated. It's become as difficult to find real Thai food as it is to find authentic Mexican or Chinese. If things continue this way, pad Thai will soon take its place beside other great American foods such as pizza, burritos, and shrimp fried rice.

Thyroid, underactive - Symptoms of underactive thyroid
Many symptoms of an underactive thyroid (hypothyroidism) are the same as those for other conditions, so they can easily be confused for something else.
Symptoms usually begin slowly and you may not realise you have a medical problem for several years.
Common symptoms include:
- tiredness
- being sensitive to cold
- weight gain
- constipation
- depression
- slow movements and thoughts
- muscle aches and weakness
- muscle cramps
- dry and scaly skin
- brittle hair and nails
- loss of libido
- pain, numbness and a tingling sensation in the hand and fingers (carpal tunnel syndrome)
- irregular or heavy periods
Elderly people with an underactive thyroid may develop memory problems and depression. Children may experience slower growth and development. Teenagers may start puberty earlier than normal.
If you have any of these symptoms, see your GP and ask to be tested for an underactive thyroid.
Find out more about getting tested for an underactive thyroid.
If underactive thyroid is not treated
It is unlikely that you would have many of the later symptoms of an underactive thyroid as the condition is often spotted before more serious symptoms appear.
Later symptoms of underactive thyroid include:
- a low-pitched and hoarse voice
- a puffy-looking face
- thinned or partly missing eyebrows
- a slow heart rate
- hearing loss
- anaemia

Consequential decisions can be triggered by inconsequential causes. She leaned over, picked up the phone—and I knew then that I'd be filing for divorce. But later, introspective curiosity sets in. And the search for self-justification. So we poke around dormant gray matter trying to bring out a plausible teleological narrative. All this has been happening to me since I decided to sell my boat.
The American Idea: A Proposition (November 2007)
"Ours are loyalties to an ideal, not to a revelation, and this must have been the reason, even if he was not conscious of it, why Lincoln referred to the American 'proposition.'"
Bush for President (October 1988)
Employment is up; inflation is down; and success as a social ideal now commands prestige. Why repudiate the politics that have brought us to this felicity?
Also see:
The Attack on Yale (November 1951)
"God and Man at Yale, written by William F. Buckley, Jr., is a savage attack on that institution as a hotbed of 'atheism' and 'collectivism.' I find the book is dishonest in its use of facts, false in its theory, and a discredit to its author." By McGeorge Bundy
Selling a boat one has spent happy decades on is, in a way, a fateful decision. It can be likened to a decision to stop skiing or playing the piano, if one has skied a lot or played the piano a lot. The sequence here is critical to the effort to explain a self-inflicted privation.
What brought it on? It wasn't that I decided to do away with my boat after narrowly surviving the storm I took it through. I wasn't making a gesture of despair and remorse after losing a companion overboard.
Dramatic forerunners engender sequels that are self-explanatory, most of the time. There was none such here to account for my decision. If there had been a catalytic event, you would be looking for something quite simple, on the order of resolving to file for divorce after finding your wife in bed with another man—a banality. It was the inconsequential factor that I searched for.
What did happen is that Michael, a first mate I had retained—as I regularly did—to crew for me one day every summer week and ten days in August, had had to pull away. A mortal cancer had seized his mother, quickly killing her. Of course he would leave me for a period, to be back in Canada with his father; I expected his return after two or three weeks, but then he reported that he had contracted an episodic malady of sorts that would keep him away for the balance of the sailing season. He would be returning directly to Yale to get on with his graduate work in molecular biology. My summer schedule was put awry.
A few weeks later, my plans reconstituted, I was sailing on Patito with three very old friends off Cape Cod. I blurted it out to them at dinner, on the fourth night, that I had decided to sell my boat—on which, as on its predecessors, they had all sailed with me over many years, and to distant places. Their stupefaction was gratifying, in that it confirmed the felt gravity of my decision. I had acted on impulse—but not, I tried to explain to them, impulsively.
In September of 1938 two of my sisters and I received distressing news, relayed to us by our governess. It was that two weeks hence we were to embark for England, where for one academic year we would attend English boarding schools. This disruption of happy lives, home-schooled in northwestern Connecticut, we found unbearable. My father, who had thus struck us down, was at the time visiting Europe with my mother and other siblings. He had given no reason for this arbitrary move, beyond saying that the experience of foreign schooling would be educational for us; never mind that we had all already been to British schools five years earlier, when we were living in Europe. Age twelve, I wrote to him resignedly (there was no alternative to complying with my father's decisions) about the impending extraterritorialization, and took sly and arrant advantage of his predictable defensiveness—he owed us one, and he had a very tender heart. I told him with a letter that I pined to have a sailboat when we got back from the English ordeal.
And so, nine months later, in June of 1939, I beheld my own sailboat on the neighboring lake.
It was a torrid affair from the moment I sighted her. I thought it a filial gesture to name my boat Sweet Isolation, reflecting my father's political leanings in the pre-war years. My little (seventeen-foot) conventionally rigged Barracuda (sailing class extinct) took me around the triangular course on Lakeville Lake twice every Wednesday, Saturday, and Sunday, mid-June to Labor Day. I contended in the no-handicap marathon against six other boats of different designs, all of them captained by aged men and women in their twenties and thirties. We all struggled hugely to acquire the trophy. You needed to win it three times before taking permanent ownership. An exact replica of it could be found at the local hardware store, on sale for $21.
I would rise early on racing days to gauge the wind's preliminary dispositions, and to contemplate a strategy for that afternoon. I would be driven the five miles to the lake, arriving an hour before race time so that I could practice my starts and coach my crew (usually one of my siblings). We had three summers of this before the Wononscopomuc Yacht Club races became a casualty of Pearl Harbor; they did not revive after the war. The spring-fed lake, one mile square, is still there, and from it, when the winds are still and the sun is low, you can discern the brick profile of the Hotchkiss School. On the opposite rise, in the low Berkshires, Wanda Landowska could view the lake from her house where, for RCA, she recorded her historic harpsichord renditions of The Well-Tempered Clavichord. On the afternoon of the recording session, after beginning to play, she stopped. She advised the state police, by telephone, that they must close the entire road east of the lake to traffic, so that she could have the total stillness she needed. No one had ever before made such a request; no one else ever will; but the police, dumbfounded by the high Teutonic voice of the lady whose face had graced Time magazine, complied.

Are humans getting dumber?
A new study published in Trends in Genetics is suggesting that humans are slowly but surely losing their intellectual and emotional capacities.

An unsecured path: Unworkable immigration 'reform'
The Senate plan grants provisional legal status to illegals, who would have to pay back taxes and a penalty and pass a criminal background check. They could attain a green card only after certain enforcement provisions, such as implementing a tracking system for people who enter the country on temporary visas and requiring the use of E-Verify by employers, are complete.
President Obama offered similar carrots and sticks in a similar order. The senators and the President must take all of us for fools. There is no way that meaningful border enforcement will come from either of these proposals. That is because neither offers it. "It" is a border fence.
Last week an illegal immigrant was arrested in Raleigh, N.C., for DWI. He had been deported in 2008. And 2009. And 2011. Without a fence, deportation means nothing. Without the threat of meaningful deportation, the incentives to stay on the "path to citizenship" have no bite. Why bother completing the path once you have legal status? As columnist Charles Krauthammer has pointed out, once granted, "provisional" legal status will never be revoked.
Give us real border security first. Everything else comes afterward.

with the American Bach Choir
Easter Day celebrations at St. Thomas Church in Leipzig were grand and glorious affairs. Bach created a work that brings the characters of Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James, Peter, and John to the liturgical stage with no expenses spared in its lavish orchestration that includes the brilliance of trumpets and timpani, and the sweet strains of pastoral recorders. One of Bach's earliest cantatas is paired with the quintessentially noble "A Mighty Fortress."
