Seems like Fiest of Crows sales versus NOTW sales would be the important numbers. Though it sounds like NOTW is way behind.

Well, aFFC sold around 350,000 HB copies in the year it was released and tNoTW around 250,000(All formats) in four years. So with conservatively guesstimating total feast sales being around 1 million based on as many pb copies of feast being sold as HB, plus new fans since, then GRRM could have atleast four times as many fans. Still like wert said rothfuss is doing great for only having one book out.
US sales only.

Starred review in Publishers' Weekly just out:
As seamless and lyrical as a song from the lute-playing adventurer and arcanist Kvothe, this mesmerizing sequel to Rothfuss's 2007's debut, The Name of the Wind, is a towering work of fantasy. As Kvothe, now the unassuming keeper of the Waystone Inn, continues to share his astounding life story--a history that includes saving an influential lord from treachery, defeating a band of dangerous bandits, and surviving an encounter with a legendary Fae seductress--he also offers glimpses into his life's true pursuit: figuring out how to vanquish the mythical Chandrian, a group of seven godlike destroyers that brutally murdered his family and left him an orphan. But while Kvothe recalls the events of his past, his future is conspiring just outside the inn's doors. This breathtakingly epic story is heartrending in its intimacy and masterful in its narrative essence, and will leave fans waiting on tenterhooks for the final installment. (Mar.)

I posted my thoughts on the NOTW in the NOTW thread just recently as I only finished it this month, so luckily my timing seems to have been good to me this time and I will only have to wait a few small months for instalment 2!!!
Even though I did find the story sagged, significantly, for much of the final third, the end came to life again and the writing is so beautiful, direct and intelligent - that I could not even consider not reading the new book.
I am actually very excited and I think that may have been encouraged by the fact that the book I am reading now (the first book after NOTW) - (Brent Weeks) is decent, but the writing seems amateurish in comparison.....I am missing Rothfuss already and I thought the story was flawed.....never experienced this before!

Man, I really enjoyed TNOTW, but the publisher's price on the Kindle edition of TWMF pisses me off. I'll wait until it comes down. Maybe by then his next book will be out.

I really enjoyed TNOTW, but I'm reading so many other books, I got the audible edition for a refresher. Amazing how much stuff I had forgotten,

Have Fun, Be Safe When Using Skimobiles
Off-Highway Recreational Vehicles are a fun way to get around in the winter months. The cold returned with a vengeance at the end of February, so the trails should be set up for some great riding.
Skimobiles are welcome at The Green Granite Inn. We offer parking in certain areas of our parking lots to accommodate trailers. We are close to some popular trails. However, there is no direct access from our property and no riding of these vehicles allowed on the property, so you will need to transport any OHRV you bring with you on a trailer to nearby trails.
We want you to have a memorable and safe winter adventure. Use caution and common sense.
Here are some things to remember:
* You can only ride on trails designated and signed for your type of vehicle. The NH Bureau of Trails and the New Hampshire Snowmobile Association print statewide Snowmobile Trail maps. Landowner permission is required to operate on property of another.
* If you are visiting the area and do not own your own OHRV, one can be rented locally.
* Be prepared for extreme conditions. Cold temperatures can be dangerous, so wear clothing that is appropriate for your winter activities.
* Know your abilities and understand the capabilities of your skimobile. Every operator and every machine have different capabilities.
* Remember trail conditions are forever changing, so make sure that you operate at a speed that is reasonable for the existing conditions. For example, at night or when operating in other low-visibility conditions, reduce your speed so that you can identify and avoid sudden hazards on the trail or lake. Always be aware of the conditions of the trail.
* Don't Drink and Ride. New Hampshire has strict laws prohibiting operating any type of recreational vehicle while under the influence of alcohol or drugs. If you take the chance, you will lose your privileges to operate any type of recreational vehicle or motor vehicle and pay substantial fines. The Fish and Game Department and the New Hampshire Snowmobile Association continue to promote zero tolerance. The legal blood alcohol concentration limit for operating OHRVs is similar to that of driving cars, .08%.
* Be especially careful on weekends that draw large crowds outdoors.
* Always check the thickness and condition of the ice before going out on any lakes.
* OHRV Safety Education Courses for snowmobiles, All-Terrain Vehicles and trail bikes are available in the area, taught by Fish and Game-certified volunteer instructors to certify children 12 and older.

Registry of Unexplained Cardiac Arrest

- How to Read a Study Record
The project will evaluate a standardized testing protocol in detecting the cause of cardiac arrest and familial sudden death in patients with apparently unexplained cardiac arrest. The testing is directed at the detection of rare genetic conditions that result in palpitations, blackouts and sudden death in patients and their family members. Genetic testing will be performed to validate the clinical findings.
Cardiac Arrest
Long QT Syndrome
Brugada Syndrome
Catecholamine Sensitive Polymorphic Ventricular Tachycardia
Idiopathic Ventricular Fibrillation
Early Repolarization Syndrome
Phase 3
|Study Type:
|Study Design:
|Observational Model: Cohort
Time Perspective: Prospective
|Official Title:
|Cardiac Arrest Survivors With Preserved Ejection Fraction Registry (CASPER)
|Estimated Enrollment:
|Study Start Date:
|May 2004
|Estimated Study Completion Date:
|June 2013
Arrhythmias caused by congenital or acquired abnormalities of cardiac K+ or Na+ channels are increasingly recognized as a cause of syncope and sudden death. Cardiac arrest in the absence of overt structural heart disease was previously considered idiopathic ventricular fibrillation (IVF). The list of causes of "unexplained" cardiac arrest (UCA) now encompasses K+ related abnormalities (Long and Short QT, Andersen's), Na+ related (Long QT3, Brugada), Ca++ related (Catecholaminergic Polymorphic Ventricular Tachycardia-CPVT), and latent cardiomyopathy. These underlying causes of cardiac arrest are overtly familial in 30-60% of cases. Clinical detection of the underlying phenotype is crucial to direct appropriate treatment, genetic testing and screening of family members.
Phenotype recognition of the range of these rare genetic conditions includes non-invasive and invasive testing to demonstrate the hallmarks of each individual condition, and exclude common causes such as ischemic or idiopathic forms of cardiomyopathy. The outcomes from this type of testing have not been assessed in a systematic fashion in patients with UCA or their family members. Phenotype-genotype correlation is necessary to develop optimal diagnostic testing in probands and screening techniques in their family members, which will result in disease-specific therapy. Genetic testing of patients with an overt phenotype demonstrates a potentially causative mutation in 50-75% of LQTS patients, and 20% of Brugada's Syndrome patients. Despite recognized mutations with phenotypic expression models, 30-80% of patients will have negative gene screening despite overt or latent clinical disease.
The proposed project is evaluating a systematic approach to clinical assessment and genetic screening of patients and families with UCA and suspected inherited arrhythmias involving:
- A multicenter registry of UCA patients, their family members and referred patients with familial sudden death undergoing standardized testing for evidence of primary electrical disease (PED). The single center pilot experience at the applicant's institution has proven feasibility, and has been accepted for publication in Circulation, indicating novelty. Ten centers across Canada have agreed to participate. The target is to enroll 200 UCA probands, 100 family members and 100 1st degree relatives of autopsy negative unexplained sudden death victims.
- DNA testing of affected individuals involving testing for LQTS, Brugada's Syndrome and CPVT. This project will partner with Dr. Michael Gollob at University of Ottawa for DNA sequencing.
|Ages Eligible for Study:
|18 Years and older
|Genders Eligible for Study:
|Accepts Healthy Volunteers:
|Sampling Method:
|Non-Probability Sample

Glen Campbell Struggling With Alzheimer's
Wednesday, June 19, 2013
Glen Campbell has been suffering with Alzheimer's for the last two years, and now, it seems, the disease has really taken a toll on the legendary singer. In this week's Country Weekly cover story article, Glen's family says the singer is struggling.
Glen's wife, Kim, their daughter, Ashley, and Glen's producer, Julian Raymond, told the magazine that he now requires constant attention, has trouble speaking and most certainly can no longer tour.
Kim says Glen has experienced some typical side effects of Alzheimer's including anxiety, agitation and depression. She said, "One time, he couldn't use the television remote. He knew what it was but couldn't figure out how to use it. And he got so agitated that he threw the remote at the television."
Ashley says her dad can't remember a lot of the lyrics to his songs, adding, "It's heartbreaking to see this disease robbing him of what he does best."
Glen is supposed to release an album of re-recorded hits called See You There on August 13th.

Comments about Vineyard Vines Mini Cable V-Neck:
I would buy this product again and love the white color. I wear it with a lace-tipmed cami and get good added warmth without bulk for cold weather. The mini cable styling is subtle and just the right amount of added style. I will use this over several seasons, I am sure.

In hindsight I regret spending my money on "extras" that should have been in the game. I'm starting to hate video gaming. It's getting way too money grabby. PS3 may be my last system. There are plenty of games I have yet to play.

On Jamie Collins: On Duron Harmon: If true, another brains trust v scouting department inability to be on the same page is troublesome because it hasn't gone well in the past. Pauline certainly has good contacts in general although he's not always completely reliable when it comes to the Patriots so this is 'pinch of salt' worthy but is still worthy of attention. Grading the Draft: New England Patriots From my perspective, I do think every pick has some risk aside from the Boyce pick. There is certainly plenty of upside in Collins, Dobson and Ryan in particular but there's an equal bust opportunity with all three that does concern me.

The first question:
Osho,Arising out of one of your answers the day before yesterday, I felt you didn't give sufficient value to Western man for the use of the dream as one of the means to consciousness. I'm thinking particularly of Jung's techniques in his psychology of self realization.
Yes, I don't give much value to Freud, Jung, Adler or Assagioli. Freud, Jung, Adler and others are just children playing on the sand of time. They have gathered beautiful pebbles, beautiful colored stones, but when you look at the ultimate they are just children playing with pebbles and stones. Those stones are not real diamonds. And whatsoever they have gained is very, very primitive. You will have to go slowly with me to understand.
Man can be physically ill; then the physician, the doctor is needed. Man can be psychologically ill; then a little help can be given by Freud and Jung and others. But when man is existentially ill, neither a physician nor a psychiatrist can be of any help. Existential illness is spiritual. It is neither of the body nor of the mind, it is of the total - and the total transcends all parts. The total is not just a composition, a composition of the parts, it is something beyond the parts. It is something that holds all the parts into itself. It is a transcendence.
And the illness is existential. Man suffers from a spiritual illness. Dreams won't be of any help towards that. What in fact can dreams do? At the most they can help you to understand your unconscious a little bit more. Dreams are the language of the unconscious; the symbols, indications, hints and gestures of the unconscious; a message from the unconscious to the conscious. Psychoanalysts can help you to interpret the dreams, they can become mediators, they can tell you what your dream means. Of course, if you can understand your dream, you will come a little closer to your unconscious. This will help to make you more adjusted with your unconscious. You will have a little understanding. Your two parts, the conscious and the unconscious, will not be so far apart; they will be a little closer. You will not be split as much as before. A little unity, a sort of unity will exist in you. You will be more normal, but to be normal is nothing. To be normal is not even worth talking about. To be normal means you are as you should be ordinarily; nothing else has happened, nothing from the beyond has penetrated you. You will be a more adjusted person in the society also. Of course, you will be a little better husband, a little better mother, a little better friend - but only a little.

Philip Goldstein, the principal in a growing hedge fund and prominent activist investor, has taken a position in a Mexico-based closed-end fund. Following a hard-fought proxy contest in which he advocated for management to eliminate the fund's substantial discount, Goldstein earns a seat on the board of directors. Now he and the board are faced with the decision of how best to "unlock value" in the fund by delivering Net Asset Value (NAV) to shareholders. The case, which provides rich detail on the workings of closed-end funds (CEFs), invites students to examine the trade-offs among liquidating the fund, converting it to an open-end fund, or carrying out a self-tender offer. It also raises topics of fund selection and investing in country-specific funds such as Mexico.

subjects covered:
Behavioral finance; Finance; Investments; Tender offers
- Geographic: Mexico
- Industry: Hedge funds

Yes! This so deserved to win!
Congratz Bootboots. Was hoping for Guacamole but not too upset that it lost to this one.
I actually really like this shirt, but a close friend recently passed away from cancer, so I'm not sure if I should get it or not. What's even more ironic is that I'll be running, or at least walking, a marathon in like three weeks to raise more awareness for cancer and in her honor... I'm so conflicted.
Looks like he's racing for the cure for fingerless hands.
Believe me if I were in shape I'd consider racing for something. Keyword: consider. Great job with the shirt!
You know, I always wanted to create a Support our Ribbons ribbon that was some sort of patch work/tie die but I think that the joke might offend some people, and I wonder if this shirt falls in to this category.
Think I should wear this shirt to planned parenthood?
how about a race for the cure for my shirt woot buying addiction? though i don't think you guys would like that much =p
Yeah BootsBoots! I'm sure you'll donate your winnings to cure the children or Africa or something . . . ;-)
In for one! And my first First Sucker!
I thought it was funny at first, but since my grandmother just died from breast cancer, I'm not digging this shirt so much. Personally, I think it's a bit tasteless.
Between this and The Apathy Coalition, I think we're getting a pretty good idea of Boots's attitudes towards life.
Look at that, even the guy with stubby legs is racing for...something.
Congrats Boots! well deserved! such a great and funny shirt!!!!
I really like this shirt, but think it would be better without the text at the bottom...it would leave more up to the imagination...still a good job I think. =)
I would need a secret costumed ironic identity to carry this off...hmmm, what color cape would go?
I refuse to think of the Children until they learn to think for themselves.
I was born in that year. I might buy it specifically for that.
oh man, i've got apathy coalition and now this one comes on an even better color for me. i'm totally unemployed and you're trying to bankrupt me boots.
How can he race with no feet? He'll never get those nike sponsorships to help cure africa!
I like the idea of this shirt, I just don't like the wording of it.
The double "for"s gets me... If it was "Race for a cure or something" or "Race for the cure of something" I'd like it a lot better.
This is great stuff.
Man... I stayed up for this shirt? I was hoping for either Zombie Doom Squad or Holy Guacamole. No real gripe with this shirt, except I felt it was too much of a slogan shirt and not enough of a graphic shirt.
Kidgoldstein wrote:Man... I stayed up for this shirt? I was hoping for either Zombie Doom Squad or Holy Guacamole. No real gripe with this shirt, except I felt it was too much of a slogan shirt and not enough of a graphic shirt.
Going to have to agree. This shirt is funny, but ...meh. It just looks like something that anyone could throw together without much difficulty.
Bring on the DOOM SQUAD.
i have nothing to say about this outcome except YES.
and i hope to see "the vintage truth" tomorrow. :D

I think the awkward wording and phrasing is perfect as it adds to the humor.
4000 people die of rabies every 1000 years.
It's like raising money for TBA.
I'm going to wear this to 10k's this summer just to watch the radical runner's reaction!
Anyone wanna come to my place and watch Wrath of Kahn on the big screen?
Bought and bought!
Love it, Boots. Congrats.<3
So whats the joke here?
Congrats, bootsy!
I feel like the slogan is trying to say that we need to find a cure for children. Have children really become that malignant to our society?
I really shouldn't buy this but I would just love to see the look on the people's faces who I had to listen to all through high school 'Donate for this, donate for that, go to this walk, go to that walk.' Mwuahahahaha
I think this fellow's hands are actually well protected... let's say rubberized... to... protect this world from MORE children :D
I was going to buy this shirt then I realized the figure on the shirt is wearing #44-
that is:
The retired numbers for former baseball players Hank Aaron, Willie McCovey and Reggie Jackson
Retired NFL Numbers: Floyd Little (Denver Broncos) and Pete Retzlaff (Philadelphia Eagles)
Retired NBA Numbers: Dan Issel, (Denver Nuggets); Jerry West (L.A. Lakers); Paul Westphal (Phoenix Suns); Sam Lacey (Sacramento Kings); and George Gervin (San Antonio Spurs).
I don't think they would appreciate it if they saw me wear it, and me personally, I don't want to offend legend.
can we get it in moisture wicking instead of cotton?! i'd wear this every time i ran.
i was born in 82! i have no choice but to get this!

Tom Petty Prepping Deep Cut Setlist For Upcoming Tour
Tuesday, April 2, 2013
Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers are prepping multiple rarities and deep cuts for their two upcoming New York City and L.A. residencies next month. During the band's upcoming spring jaunt, they'll play five nights at Manhattan's Beacon Theatre along with six shows at L.A.'s Fonda Theatre. Tom Petty explained that the two residencies will force the Heartbreakers to spend some extra time in the rehearsal room, telling Rolling Stone, "I'm gonna have to do a lot more rehearsals than the six days we usually do. . . I don't want to do a 'Greatest Hits' night. We need to learn a lot of songs, some covers, (and) some of our old stuff. When you're together as long as we have been, there's a lot to keep up with. There's always something you've missed unless you've been there since the '70s. We can present these songs in a way that will feel fresh to people who know them and be a lot of fun if you've never heard them."
Petty went on to talk about how and why he tours these days: "I go when I feel like it. I don't go everywhere or take a project to promote. I just go. That's the way I intend to do it from here on out."
He shed some light on the current sessions for the band's upcoming album due out later this year, revealing, "I hear six (songs) that I'm sure about. It's very electric. . . The album is based in blues but more rock than (2010's) Mojo. It shows the band all grown up and looking good."
Tom Petty told us that he and the Heartbreakers have tried to take the high road in maintaining their creativity while become a heritage act: "Well, we've all got that hunger, and it doesn't go away, and you do kinda learn that there are graceful ways of dealing with it (laughs), y'know, of satisfying that hunger. And maybe, I think, you kind of see, too, that there are ways to step around some of the obvious pitfalls of longevity. I've seen people that have been around a long time, and they just fall into routine and self-parody, and that's just not where we want to wind up."
Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers tour dates (subject to change):
May 16 - Evansville, IN - Ford Center
May 17, 18, 19 - Gulf Shores, AL - Hangout Music Festival (***Show Date TBA)

I have an older model of Serval so I can't comment on this one, but I do praise their support services. Way better responsiveness and helpfulness than many of the big OEMs - and you don't get agents from Kentucky with an Indian accent either.
Phoronix: System76 Serval Professional Notebook
Finding a laptop that can run Linux is no longer much of a challenge. As we have shared in numerous netbook and notebook reviews, a majority off the shelf PCs shipping with Windows can easily be replaced with Linux and chances are most -- if not all -- of the components will just work on this open-source operating system, while ill-supported parts can usually be configured to work in just a few steps. For those looking to save time or avoid a potential headache, Dell, Hewlett-Packard, and other major vendors have been offering Linux notebooks for some time now. One of the smaller vendors though that has been offering Ubuntu Linux notebooks (along with desktops and servers) is System76 Inc. This Colorado-based company not only ensures their hardware is 100% compatible with Ubuntu Linux, but they also preload some popular software packages that are not installed by default on Ubuntu. In this review we are looking at the System76 Serval Professional notebook.
I have an older model of Serval so I can't comment on this one, but I do praise their support services. Way better responsiveness and helpfulness than many of the big OEMs - and you don't get agents from Kentucky with an Indian accent either.
The Serval is out of my price range, but I'll definitely consider the Pangolin for my next purchase.

I just compared the Serval Pro to the Lenovo W500, which seems to be its closest competitor and it came out very similarly priced. Cheaper, actually and has more connectivity options. No, it's not a cheap laptop by any means, but it's by no means a HUGE premium, unless you're comparing it to a Dell, HP or Acer. Still, I'd consider it if I was in the market.
Nice review guys. I have one of these, and I haven't gotten around to installing the Phoronix test suite on it, so it was nice to see some hard data proving what I already knew: it's a superbeast of a computer.
Seriously, it looks like it's the best performance value out there. Sure, you could get a Sager or Falcon NW, but it'll probably cost hundreds or thousands more.
One neat thing you guys (and you're not alone!) didn't notice. The eSATA port on the back is actually a combination USB/eSATA port. Look closely for the clever packaging!
To me portability and battery life are more important than FPS in some game I will never play.
I have been wanting to see this review ever since I saw the System76 ads on Phoronix and also saw it hinted in one of the articles / forum posts (don't remember which one).
I have a Asus G50VT-X6 and it should be a direct competitor to this machine. In a nutshell, my machine has P8700 @2.53 GHz, 4GB DDR2 @800MHz, and of course, 9800M GS. And from my usage of last month or so, I can say this is a killer machine.
Anycase, unfortunately, I didn't see the Serval before I bought my notebook, else it would have been a close candidate. The only small gripe with Asus is that they don't have DDR3 (but given expensive nature, performance benifits and latency issues, I am ok), and I just fell short of that magical 1920x1200 - I have 1680x1050 (mind you, this itself is huge and pixel density strains your eyes and head).
There are tons I could write on this topic and why I went with Asus finally. The looks were awesome (really looks like a gaming machine). Price of 1300 is unbelievable(at newegg) and there is a slightly lower version selling at 950 in bestbuy. This is just on the twilightzone between portable and brick. I will say, this is portable for me - I carry it to work everyday and totally all-purpose.
Regarding battery life, it is not surprising that this should be as good as other laptops with discrete graphics under light/moderate load, because 9800MGS clocks down all the way to 169MHz gpu and 100MHz memory, and so does the P8700 to 0.8GHz. Remember, 9800M GT/GTS has 96 shaders compared to 64 for 9800M GS. Anyway, it does give 1.5 to 2hrs on battery in Linux. It sure gives 2+ hrs in Windows apparently. The display is a hogger, but brightness can by adjusted to unusably low . I am planning to get a 9-cell sometime soon though.
Now, can anyone please please tell me how to use the turbo mode in Linux. This Asus app in Windows can overclock my machine to a stunning 3GHz (ok, 2.93 with 9.5x mul and 300mhz bus), and 880MHz memory.
Also, although I hate these 5-second flash linux with a passion, Splashtop didn't actually disappoint me. Phoronix might have a relook at splashtop. Surprisingly, even the inbuilt intel wireless 5100agn worked fine (ok, this is fully supported by current linux kernels) and things like webcam and skype too (although its trivia thanks to linux-uvc package). Now, if only they did something about that ugly 1280x800 resolution on a 1680x1050 screen - I am sure Vesa can handle it, Nv / Nouveau would be awesome. And also please give a terminal for heaven's sake.
Other machines in the class - check out the Gateway p7805u in bestbuy - mindboggingly cheap for its specs but ultra heavy. Toshiba Qosmio x305's are good too, but tad too expensive (other gripes too). MSI's GT627 just didn't make it to Amazon (I gave up waiting). In my opinion, the Serval is actually a little expensive (I fully appreciate the specs though.)
Oh and a couple of last words. I fully appreciate the dvi+hdmi in Serval. Asus ships with one vga+hdmi. I can't convert any of these to s-video (the vga->s-vid doesn't work and hdmi has no analog pins).
Secondly, I totally like the keyboard of Serval. Thankfully no numpad. I don't know why these gaming notebooks apparently all have this numpad which crams the keyboard. Totally unnecessary to me. And some of the keys like "~" (tilde) are too small. Would have liked a backlit one too. And please don't change to the macbook like keyboards please. (I still love the keyboard of my dell vostro 1400.)

Without question, I was extremely satisfied with the service from Uncle Bob's Self Storage. We relocated from Silverdale WA to Nederland Tx. We needed somewhere to put our household goods while we moved. I contacted Uncle Bob's over the phone. They assisted me, arranged the storage by allowing my son-in-law to rent the space until I could fly to Texas to sign the agreement. When my household goods arrived, the were kept in a clean and secure space until we could move them out. When we moved out, the specialist immediately checked me out without hassle. If I ever have storage needs again, I would use Uncle Bob's. Thanks to everyone at the Beaumont on Dowlen facility for making my move less stressful. i appreciate it more than you know.Carol from Nederland, TX

Malaysian-style Fried Udon
Noodles are popular all over Asia, so it's no surprise that noodle is a staple of many Malaysians. Walk down any streets where there are street vendors or hawkers, you will see that most of the foods sold are noodle dishes. Everyone loves and could always use a noodle dish, regardless of our ethnicity: Chinese, Malays, Indians, or Eurasians. Even the foreign expatriates who live in Malaysia fall in love with local noodles dishes.
One of the differences of noodle dishes in Malaysia is the condiment that comes with the noodles. The noodles can be soupy and comes in a broth or soup, or dry as in stir-fried noodles, or in between, such as char hor fun (fried flat rice noodles in a thick gravy), but the condiment is usually a small saucer of cut fresh chilies or pickled green chilies in soy sauce. The fresh chilies are always red chilies, and sometimes bird's eye chilies, or a combination of both. This condiment is really very simple, but to us Malaysian, it's indispensable and what makes our noodle dishes so incendiary delicious—the spicy kick that accompanies every mouthful of the noodles, with an extra dash of very good tasting soy sauce. By the way, Malaysia produces some of the best soy sauce, but that will be another post.
Anyway, I disgress.
So back to my Malaysian-style fried udon. Udon is Japanese, but the Malaysian-style udon can be found at restaurants in Malaysia. In my recipe, I used fish cakes, which is a popular ingredient in many Malaysian noodle dishes. With some shredded cabbage, shrimp, mushroom, carrot, and the generous use of sweet soy sauce, this humble Malaysian-style fried udon takes me back to Malaysia. And the condiment of cut bird's eye chilies gave me just the right amount of heat and extra flavors. It was extremely delicious and absolutely satisfactory. I love Japanese-style fried udon, which is cleaner in taste. But give me a choice, I'd always opt for this sinful version.
Udon noodles are widely available in the US and everywhere now. Try my Malaysian-style fried udon recipe and I bet you will instantly fall in love with it.

The Udon noodle I have seen in the market is dry kind. Do you mean to rinse the dried and uncooked Udon noodle in the running water and then drained?
Please advise.
The Udon I have seen in a supermarket is dried kind. Do you mean to rinse the dried and uncooked noodle in the running water and then drained. Pls advise.
This looks like something my daughter would love. How many people with good-sized appetites will this serve? (I may be blind, but…)
I buy my fresh udon in supermarkets. They are quite widely available now. I love udon fried black pepper style! It's one of the best ways to have them. Though in real life, I make mine similar to yours and only have the black pepper variety in restaurants. :-) So nice and chewy.
This looks really good! But unfortunately, where I live, I have not been able to find Udon noodles anywhere! Is it possible to use other types of noodles? If do, which would you recommend?
Hi Bee, thanks for this recipe. Made it for dinner last night – super easy, super delicious!
I would like to prepare this dish for 10 people. Do I just multiply by 10?

- "You're born alone and you die alone and this world just drops a bunch of rules on top of you to make you forget those facts. But I never forget. I'm living like there's no tomorrow, because there isn't one."
- -Don Draper, Smoke Gets in Your Eyes
Donald Francis "Don" Draper is a founding partner and the Creative Director at Sterling Cooper Draper Pryce Advertising Agency in Manhattan, NY. ("Shut the Door. Have a Seat") Prior to that position, he was the Director of the Creative Department at the Sterling Cooper Advertising Agency. ("Smoke Gets in Your Eyes") He is regarded among his colleagues as the best to ever pitch copy. His true name is Richard "Dick" Whitman. He stole the identity of a dead officer during the Korean War.
Born in 1926, Richard "Dick" Whitman was the illegitimate child of a prostitute who died during childbirth. Dick lived with his father, Archie Whitman, and his father's wife, Abigail Whitman, until he was 10, at which time his father, a drunk, was kicked in the face by a horse and died. His stepmother then "took up" with a new man, "Uncle Mack," and had another son named Adam. His childhood was unhappy, and his stepmother never allowed him to forget that he was a "whore's child". ("The Hobo Code")
Life in the Brothel
After moving into Uncle Mack's brothel, Dick spent his adolescence pick-pocketing the clients of the establishment. His motivation for stealing was money to buy Hershey's Chocolate bars. During this time, Dick Whitman heard about Milton S. Hershey and his school for orphans and imagined what it would be like to grow up in a happy place such as that.
Military Service
During military service in the Korean War he assumed the identity of Lieutenant Don Draper after he was killed while the two were posted alone at an isolated base. Dick then switched identification tags with Lt. Draper and assumed his name, cutting off contact with his family and creating a new life for himself. ("Nixon vs. Kennedy")
A New Life
Dick returns to the states as Don Draper. He takes up a job at a car dealership, where Anna M. Draper, the real Don Draper's wife, confronts him, telling Don that she knows he isn't who he claims he is. ("The Mountain King") Don comes clean with Anna, and promises to help take care of her, and they end up becoming close friends. ("The Gold Violin") Don eventually meets a young model named Betty Hofstadt. He excitedly tells Anna about her on their next Christmas together. Since Don Draper is still technically married to Anna, he tells her they will have to divorce so he can marry Betty, a request to which Anna cheerfully consents. ("The Mountain King")
Don later works in New York city at Heller's, a specialty shop dealing in fur coats. Roger Sterling walks into the store, asking about a mink coat for Joan Holloway, he has just started seeing. Roger comments on an advertisement and Don states that it is one of his own. Roger hands Don a card, indicating that Roger works for an advertising firm.
When Roger opens the box up for Joan in a hotel room, he notices that Don has included a portfolio; he considers Don to be "out of line" for including it. A few days later, Don runs into Roger in the lobby of Sterling Cooper, and tries to explain it away as coincidence. He asks Roger if he saw his work; Roger tells him that it was thrown away with the box. Don offers Roger a drink, and though it is 10am, Roger accepts. Over drinks, Don tries to sell Roger on the idea of hiring him.
A few days later, Roger sees Don in the lobby again, waiting for the elevator. Roger is beside himself, angry that Don could not take a hint that he was not interested. Don stops Roger; while they board the elevator, he reminds Roger that he had offered Don a job the day before. Don smiles as Roger appears confused about his lapse in memory. ("Waldorf Stories")
Ad Man
Don Draper has an intuitive understanding of the consumer's mind, making him a brilliant ad man and the award-winning star of Sterling Cooper, attracting and retaining major clients, commanding respect from those above and below him, being courted by rival firms, and generally living the picture-perfect life of a successful businessman in the early 1960s. However, Don rarely seems happy with his "perfect" life: he is often stressed, drinks and smokes constantly, and is prone to spells of moodiness.
Draper's tenuous and complex feelings toward his children are revealed when Pete Campbell threatens to expose his past—Don, at least momentarily, considered fleeing to Los Angeles and abandoning his wife and children. Bertram Cooper makes him a partner after Roger Sterling's most recent heart attack.
While he appears to love his wife, Betty, he is constantly sleeping with other women. He had a brief affair with client Rachel Katz and was previously involved with beatnik Midge Daniels. He has left work in the middle of the day to see French New Wave films, and reads poetry by the likes of Frank O'Hara. Don has an affair with Bobbie Barrett, the wife of actor/comedian Jimmy Barrett. Betty, Don's wife, kicks him out of their house because of his refusal to admit to his affairs.
After Betty kicks him out, he stays in a hotel and then visits Los Angeles for three weeks. He returns home at Betty's behest during the Cuban Missile Crisis. In 1963, Betty gives birth to Eugene Draper; she names him after her father, Eugene Hofstadt, who passed away during her pregnancy. Betty has an unconsummated affair with Henry Francis. Later, Betty discovers Don's true identity and confronts him; Don breaks down and reveals his past. Several weeks later, this discovery of Don's identity becomes a contributing factor in Betty requesting a divorce; other factors include Henry Francis' proclamation of love and the assassinations of John Kennedy and Lee Harvey Oswald.
A New Company
When rumors of the purchase of parent company of Sterling Cooper reached Don Draper, he pushes the senior partners to attempt a purchase of the company. Because he was forced to sign a contract to gain the business of Conrad Hilton, he is an employee of the company regardless of who owns it. After presenting an offer, they realize it is a lost cause, until they hit upon an idea. Lane Pryce, the representative from PPL with authority over everyone at Sterling Cooper, agrees to fire the senior partners, thereby severing their contracts (including the no-compete clauses in their contracts.)
They secretly round up a list of clients loyal to them and steal important documentation that will smooth the transition. And they quietly select the first employees: Pete Campbell, Peggy Olson, Joan Holloway, and Harry Crane. ("Shut the Door. Have a Seat")
After the new company is formed, an interview with Don by Jack Hammond from Advertising Age leads to bad publicity for the agency, which leads to a narrow client base and the Jai Alai account to be lost due to the fact that Don did not mention the client in the interview. The loss affects the agency financially as a result of the few clients it has. Peggy hires 2 actresses to keep an account at the agency as part of a publicity stunt, however it backfires after one of the actresses sues the other one for assault. Don gives Peggy bail and hush money, expressing disparagement of the idea, although Peggy informs him that it worked to the effect that the account has stayed with the agency.
Throughout the entire run of the series, Don Draper has been portrayed as a serial womanizer. Here is a list of all the women he has been involved with throughout Season's 1 - 7.
- Allison ("Christmas Comes But Once a Year")
- Anna Draper
- Bethany Van Nuys ("Public Relations")
- Betty Hofstadt ("Smoke Gets in Your Eyes")
- Bobbie Barrett ("The Benefactor")
- Candace ("Public Relations")
- Doris ("Waldorf Stories")
- Faye Miller ("The Summer Man")
- Janine ("Public Relations")
- Joy ("The Jet Set")
- Lee ("Time Zones")
- Megan Calvet ("Chinese Wall")
- Midge Daniels ("Smoke Gets in Your Eyes")
- Rachel Katz ("Marriage of Figaro")
- Shelly ("Out of Town")
- Suzanne Farrell ("Wee Small Hours")
- Sylvia Rosen
- Unnamed woman at the Clio's ("Waldorf Stories")
Don:"She won't get married, because she's never been in love. I think I used that to sell nylons."
Rachel:"For a lot of people, love isn't just a slogan."
Don:"You mean love, you mean the big lightening bolt to the heart, where you can't eat, you can't work - you just run off and get married and make babies. The reason you haven't felt it is because it doesn't exist. What you call love was invented by guys like me, to sell nylons."
Rachel: "Is that right?"
Don: "Im sure about it. You're born alone and you die alone, and this world just drops a bunch of rules on top of you, to make you forget those facts - but I never forget. I'm living like there's no tomorrow; because there isn't one."
Rachel: "I don't think I realized until this moment that it must be hard, being a man too."
-- Don Draper on the subject of love in "Smoke Gets in Your Eyes".
Don: "Utopia."
Rachel: "Maybe. They taught us at Barnard about that word. Utopia. The greeks had two meanings for it: 'eu-topos,' meaning 'the good place' and 'ou-topos,' meaning 'the place that cannot be.'"
- A discussion between Don and Rachel, in Babylon.
Don: "Teddy told me that in Greek nostalgia literally means, the pain from an old wound. Its a twinge, in your heart. Far more powerful then memory alone. This device isn't a spaceship, its a time machine. It goes backwards, forwards. It takes us to a place, where we ache to go again. It's not called "The Wheel". Its called "The Carousel". It lets us travel in a way a child travels. Round and round, and then back home again. To a place where we know we are loved."
-- Don pitching "The Wheel" to Kodak, in The Wheel.
Clothing/Fashion Style
Don Draper's style is sharp, suave, and subtly powerful. The collar of his crisp white dress shirt stands at attention, his suit is slim cut, his tie saber-straight. Don generally sticks to a monochromatic color-scheme--he doesn't need color to make a splash. Don is suffering some personal turmoil this season, and his slightly rumpled wardrobe reflects his inner chaos and new bachelor lifestyle. We hate to say it, but Betty was Don's most stylish accessory; without her he's a bit lackluster. Of all the characters, Don is the least to change throughout the decade of the 1960's. His basic grey or blue suit, white shirt, dark tie and hat remain even toward the end of the decade when such a look was in decline. Don transcends fashion; he has the eternal iconic appearance as the man in the gray/grey suit.
