Spice Market: Luxurious dining for moderate prices
The Spice Market is located on the ground floor of the Four Seasons Hotel. My fiancee read about it in some Korean fashion magazine and asked me to go there. Being a little reluctant at first ("Four Seasons Hotel?!") I soon indulged in the outstanding service, good and well-prepared food as well as cosy atmosphere, the latter being the theme of a typical oriental spice market with sacks of spices on shelves and large jars and weighing scales as decor.
The menu offered a wide choice of Thai-style food with spicy and non-spicy dishes, graded by little chilly-symbols that indicate the level of spiciness.
The prices were, considering the location, extremely moderate. Though probably being more expensive than the average Thai tourist restaurant, it was still far away from being overpriced. For two fresh juices, one appetizer and two main dishes we paid 1300 Baht including tax and service charge.
A very nice way to end your stay in Bangkok...
Reservations are recommended but not necessarily required.
Spice Market: Dont miss it!
We had read about this restaurant in one of the guide books so took a taxi to the Four Seasons hotel to try for ourselves. On arrival at the hotel our taxi was greeted by a Thai gentleman in pinstripes and dress coat who escorted us to the restaurant inside this amazing hotel. The decor of the restaurant was perfect..a typical spice market, in an old teak room with sacks of spices on shelves and large jars and weighing scales all added to the atmosphere. Good service and polite staff made the evening. If you go have coffee in the hotel lounge after. Such an elegant place with the most beautiful Thai waitresses in national dress Ive ever seen
Favorite Dish: We had been warned about fiery Thai food but were pleasantly surprised by the delicate flavours of the dishes we had ordered, until we tried the snow peas nestling in the rice! WOW they took our heads off they were so hot, so with tears streaming down our faces and throats closing we quickly ordered cooling desserts. A young green coconut cut into the shape of a little hut and filled with coconut ice cream was just what we needed...and so delicious

CLEMSON -- One of Dabo Swinney's most questioned decisions as head coach was to name then-29-year-old Billy Napier as offensive coordinator.
It turned out to be one of his best decisions.
Swinney enjoyed a moment of vindication Tuesday, noting the Tigers broke the school's all-time scoring record this season.
While the Tigers did play a school-record 14 games, Clemson's offense was productive in the second half of the season, averaging 35.6 points during the last nine games.
Combined with his recruiting prowess, Napier, the youngest power-conference coordinator, has become one of the most valuable assets on Swinney's staff.
"Billy has done a tremendous job," Swinney said. "I couldn't be more pleased with the jobs Kevin (Steele) and Billy have done. That's why I hired Billy. I had all the confidence he would do a great job. No one works harder. He's extremely organized and detailed."
Napier is also a bargain. While redoing Steele's contract is a priority, according to a source, Napier enters the final year of a two-year deal next season making a relatively modest $200,000. With the rival SEC rich with television cash, redoing Napier's contract might also be a priority.
Swinney declined to comment on contract matters Tuesday.
"It's not worth talking about on this teleconference," Swinney said. "Right now, it's not something I want to discus in the media."
Still, a priority for Swinney is keeping the staff together, noting the importance of continuity. And Swinney was especially pleased with how Napier used Clemson's offensive assets.
C.J. Spiller became the first Tiger to record 1,000 rushing yards and 500 yard receiving yards in a season.
Without a proven wide receiver alongside Jacoby Ford, Napier adapted by leaning on Clemson's tight ends. Michael Palmer caught a school-record number of receptions for a tight end (43).
"I'm really pleased with how we used C.J.," Swinney said. "Nobody really thought we would involve the tight ends."
The offense impressed Kentucky coach Rich Brooks, who said prior to the bowl game that it was more diverse and complex than the Rob Spence-led Clemson offense he faced in the 2006 Music City Bowl.
Napier also showed he could identify problems and adjust during the season.
Clemson moved from a reliance on the spread to more power sets following the loss at Maryland. The result was Clemson rushed for 180 yards or more in six of the final nine games. The Tigers rushed for similar yardage totals just once in the first five weeks.
As essentially a rookie coordinator, Napier also adjusted how he managed his time, electing to delegate more duties midway through the season to spend more time with rookie quarterback Kyle Parker. The change, in part, led to improved play from Parker and a six-game win streak.
"The biggest thing was how to devote his time on a daily basis," Swinney said. "Focus on things that were relevant each week, each game plan. I was very pleased with the system of installation."
Napier himself said earlier this year that his on-the-job training has been a process, and the yield is a promising young coordinator.
"I'm just like any of you guys," Napier said to reporters several weeks ago. "The first year doing your jobs, you were probably better midseason than those first couple of articles.
"You try to get more efficient at it. You try to motivate better. You try to discipline better. It's like any other profession. You're constantly trying to get better."
Plan B update
Swinney said Tuesday he "expects" two-sport star Kyle Parker to return next season. Still, the plan is to get backup quarterback Tajh Boyd plenty of work in spring practice. Boyd still needs to master the Clemson offense after spending much of the season playing scout-team quarterback.
"The plan is to get (Boyd) ready, whether Kyle is coming back or not," Swinney said, "because he is going to be the second (quarterback)."
Injury update
Dabo Swinney said the status of injured tackle J.K. Jay is the biggest health question going into the spring. Guard Mason Cloy is recovering from a broken leg.

Obituary: Edmund Muskie
Wednesday 27 March 1996
He was the front-runner for the Democratic nomination in 1972 until he destroyed his own chances by losing his temper during the New Hampshire primary. The leading local newspaper, the Manchester Union-Leader, owned by the extreme right-wing publisher William Loeb, had not only attacked him; it had insulted his wife.
Muskie was so angry that he drove down to the Union-Leader, followed by several television crews. Perched on a flatbed truck with the news- paper's offices as a backdrop, Muskie denounced Loeb so emotionally that it looked as if he burst into tears. (Some said it was melting snowflakes.) He later admitted that going down to the newspaper's office was "a mistake, a whopper".
The episode is a classic instance of the power of television to convey a non-verbal message. "It changed people's minds about me," he later told the author Theodore H. White. "They were looking for a strong guy, and here I was weak."
That was not the only time when Muskie came close to the highest political peaks. In 1968, when he was the vice- presidential candidate on the Democratic ticket with Senator Hubert Humphrey, several polls suggested that, if Muskie had been the candidate, he would have won. As it was, it is often forgotten that Richard Nixon only won by a narrow margin, with the Humphrey-Muskie team gaining on him in the last hours before the polls closed.
In 1972 Muskie won the first Democratic primary in New Hampshire, and might well have won the Democratic presidential nomination had it not been for the Union-Leader incident and for a cynical "dirty tricks" campaign by the Nixon campaign.
The President's men circulated a wholly faked letter purporting to show that Muskie had used the word "Canucks", a contemptuous word for French- Canadians, who are an important part of the Democratic constituency in New Hampshire. The deception became known when the Nixon man, a certain Ken Clawson, was foolish enough to boast of his authorship of the "Canuck" letter to an attractive female reporter on the Washington Post.
In 1976 Muskie was in the final in the contest to be Jimmy Carter's Vice- President. Carter himself confided to his diary that it was a close thing between Muskie and Walter F. "Fritz" Mondale, who eventually became Vice-President.
Muskie, who had been Governor of Maine from 1955 to 1959 and then a United States Senator from 1959 until 1980, was rewarded by President Carter in that year by appointment as his Secretary of State, a job Muskie greatly enjoyed and did very creditably, though he once confided that it was one job "that never crossed my mind".
Muskie's role was not to get involved in the detail of negotiations, for example, over the return of the American hostages in Tehran. That, and much else of the detail, was left to the Deputy Secretary, Warren Christopher, now President Clinton's Secretary of State. But Carter wrote in his memoirs that "Ed brought to the Secretary's office a broad and mature understanding of our nation itself and its international role".
Muskie's parents were Polish immigrants, his father a tailor whose name was changed for him from Marciszewski by immigration officials. He was born in Rumford, a western Maine papermill town, in 1914. He worked his way through a small local college, Bates, and then graduated from Cornell Law School before setting up a law practice in Waterville, Maine.
During the Second World War he served in the US Navy in destroyer escorts. He returned to Waterville and was elected to the Maine legislature in 1946. From 1955 to 1959 he served as Governor of Maine, where he was a pioneer in pushing for laws to clear up air and water pollution. He was elected to the United States Senate in 1959.
Six foot four with a craggy, lugubrious face, Muskie was good company and liked a drink in private. He was a conscientious and honourable politician with a fine speaking voice who lacked only flair. But he did have a temper, and when roused could swear with naval vocabulary.
Early on in his career in the Senate, he showed that he was not a man to be cheaply bought. It was at a time when Senator Lyndon B. Johnson, then the Senate majority leader, was playing a delicate game with his conservative Southern Democratic colleagues over Rule 22, which allowed Southern Senators to filibuster a civil rights bill.
Johnson made it plain to Muskie and other freshman senators that, if they went along with a conservative version of an amendment to Rule 22, one that would effectively enable the South to postpone civil rights legislation in favour of black citizens, they would be rewarded with assignment to desirable committee assignments. Muskie refused and was punished by two comparatively insignificant committee assignments, to the Government Operations and Public Works committees.
His long career in the Senate was characterised by solid work rather than by glamorous speechifying or the sponsorship of famous legislation. His somewhat dour approach to politics was well illustrated by his remark when asked for a comment on Nixon's victory in 1968. "In Maine," he replied, "we have a saying that you don't say anything that doesn't improve on silence."
Shortly after that 1968 defeat, Muskie quietly convassed his colleagues to see if there was support for his becoming a Democratic Whip, a job that would have led to his becoming the Senate majority leader in succession to Senator Mike Mansfield in due course. Twenty-nine voters would have been enough to get him the job. It was typical of Muskie that when he found he had only 24 immediate supporters, instead of trying to win more of his colleagues over by a public bid for the job, he quietly accepted defeat.
After Jimmy Carter was defeated by Ronald Reagan in 1980, Muskie joined a Washington law firm, Chadbourne & Parke, where he remained a partner until his death. He divided his time between Washington DC and a holiday home at Kennebunk, near President Bush's home. He was one of the co-authors of the Tower report commissioned by President Reagan into the Iran-Contra scandal in the 1980s.
Muskie married Jane Gray of Waterville in 1948. They had two sons and three daughters. His concern for the environment came from his love of the outdoors. He loved to fish in Maine rivers, hunt in Maine's vast forests and even to swim in its icy sea.

Even the European Union's rescue of Greece proved less costly. At the peak of the AIG catastrophe, the Federal Reserve and Treasury's Troubled Asset Rescue Program had to pump in nearly $140 billion.
AIG (AIG) seemed not only reckless but impudent. In the spring of 2009, it set off a firestorm in Congress when it sought to pay some $165 million in retention bonuses to personnel in the Financial Products unit, the very operation whose decision to insure billions in lethal home-mortgage securities triggered the financial seize-up at AIG.

But late this month, the government is slated to take its first step to extricate itself from the horror show that has been AIG. The effort will come in the form of a stock offering in which the Treasury will seek to sell a major hunk of its 1.655 billion shares, or 92% common stock interest, in AIG. The roadshow to flog the deal is imminent.
The sales price of the shares will be important, since the proceeds will be used to pay back the Treasury and, indirectly the taxpayer for the remaining $47.5 billion in direct government exposure to AIG. At the stock's current price of about $31, the Treasury would realize a modest profit on the bailout, a testament both to the deft financial maneuvering of the government's AIG restructuring group, led by Jim Millstein until his departure two months ago, and a new AIG management team headed by CEO Robert Benmosche, who in nearly two years at the helm has steadied the operation and sold the company's foreign life-insurance operations for top dollar.
An individual inside the Treasury avers that if the government can get a price at or above its break-even of $28.73 a share, the offering could be a blockbuster $30 billion. Below that price, however, the Treasury would be more, in his words, "judicious" and scale back the offering to, say, $20 billion. At a minimum, he said, the government would like to cut its stake by half, which would mean selling at least 850 million shares. "We're counting on the fact that the new AIG is still a huge financial concern that will be a must-own holding for all manner of financial portfolios and index funds," he said.
It's unclear that's how things will unfold. A number of factors appear to weigh on AIG's prospects, whatever the price of the offering. For one thing, potential investors in the stock are faced with a motivated seller—TARP—which under the best of circumstances will be dumping all its shares over the next year or more. The prospect of these sales, along with poor results capped by a fourth-quarter $4.2 billion reserve-strengthening charge disclosed in February, have taken the stock from a dividend-adjusted 52 in January down to the low 30s of late. Momentum seems to be going the wrong way.
Yes, the new AIG that is being offered to shareholders seems simpler and less opaque than the entity that foundered in 2008. But it will also be bereft of its overseas life-insurance operations, including American International Assurance, 67% of which was sold late last year in a stock offering that raised more than $20 billion, and Alico, sold late in 2010 to MetLife MET -0.7461221284115452% MetLife Inc.

These were both deemed to be AIG's crown jewels because of their exposure to high-growth Asian markets. They were hived off to help pay down the money owed to the government.
TO BULLS ON THE STOCK, AIG seems dramatically underpriced. That's especially true considering that its current price of 31 is far below the company's March book value of $47.32 a share.
But not everyone agrees with that assessment. Keefe Bruyette & Woods insurance analyst Cliff Gallant, for example, claims the company has an earnings power of roughly $2.70 a share for 2012, assuming no glitches. He thus arrives at a price target for the stock of only 23, based on a price/earnings ratio of 8.5.
Gallant contends that AIG merits no higher multiple, since the company's expected return on equity of around 5.5% is roughly half that of rivals such as Travelers trv -1.3772345859175483% Travelers Cos.

Gallant's crystal ball, it should be noted, has been somewhat cloudy when it comes to AIG. For many months last year he had a target price on the stock of 6, though the shares at the time were trading in the high 30s to low 40s. He then raised his estimate late in the year to $17.50, after the announcement of a recapitalization whereby the government agreed to convert its various classes of preferred shares into common, with an eye on monetizing its holdings. Late last week, Gallant boosted the target to 23, while maintaining his Underperform rating. This came after AIG announced first-quarter results in which various investment gains were sufficient to offset $1.7 billion of losses from earthquakes.
Gallant concedes that AIG's Benmosche succeeded in getting high prices for the foreign life-insurance assets. Also, the stock surged on the snap-back in the share prices of other financial stocks, such as BofA and Citigroup, after they paid back their government assistance.
But those gains didn't last. "AIG's stock price in the last few years has been less indicative of value and more a function of the small effective float in the stock," Gallant asserts. "One shouldn't forget that only 8% of the shares are owned by the public, and the bulk of them don't trade at all."
Looked at on a sum-of-the-parts basis, AIG may be no bargain. The respected insurance-industry research house Dowling & Partners took a crack at the task recently, developing a best-guess estimate of $32.79 for the stock. Given the weakness in the stock, perhaps Dowling's low-range estimate of $21.75 merits some attention, too.
Under that scenario, AIG's biggest unit, the international property-casualty operation with the new brand name Chartis, would be valued at just 45% of its year-end book value of $47.4 billion; the SunAmerica (GNMAX) domestic life-insurance and retirement-products operation at 75% of its $34.9 billion book value; and AIG's airplane-leasing unit ILFC at just 30% of its $8.2 billion book value. Throw in some $16 billion in miscellaneous assets, deduct debt of $28.5 billion, and one is left with a book value of $39.1 billion, or $21.75 a share.
Missing the Mark
AIG had to add $4 billion to its reserves last year because it failed to take in enough in premiums. It was hardly the first time this happened, and the trend has been a significant drag on earnings and the company's stock price.
This reduced estimate seems to have some validity if one takes a close look at AIG's operations in recent years. Chartis, for example, has had a rocky history over the past decade, having to make additions to its reserves for future claims and other expenses in nine out of 10 years. This means, of course, that claims overwhelmed the premiums they had collected, leading to earnings writedowns year after year.
Partly this was due to the types of commercial-insurance policies the unit underwrote. Aggressiveness and derring-do were AIG traits. The company over the years pioneered kidnap insurance and directors' and officers' coverages. AIG also became a behemoth in tough, competitive markets such as workers' compensation, product liability and medical malpractice, as it was frequently willing to take on "excess" layers of coverage above those covered by standard policies.
Excess insurance is hard to price in terms of setting premiums. That's because while claims occur infrequently, the payouts can be enormous when they do happen. The traditional bulwarks of actuarial analysis and the law of large numbers (sufficient numbers of policies won't go to claim in order to cover those that do) don't apply.
Many of the risks that Chartis covers are also, in insurance parlance, "long-tail," or claims that pay out over many years, such as worker's compensation cases where a seriously injured insured receives benefits for decades to come, subject to unforeseen medical inflation. Chartis is still bedeviled by asbestos claims more than two decades after AIG stopped writing the coverage because of ever-expanding legal definitions that extended insurers' liability.
But the company's constant reserve whiffs in nine of the past 10 years betoken more than miscalculations. The culture at the Chartis units also has appeared to be one of arrogance, instilled by AIG's longtime chief Maurice "Hank" Greenberg, who was forced out in an accounting scandal in 2005. Growth at all costs, even at the expense of prudence, was long the company's philosophy.
And Chartis' situation could get worse, even in the face of the $4.2 billion reserve charge AIG announced in February and included in fourth-quarter 2010 results. For one thing, AIG recently shook up the unit's management, installing a new CEO and actuary. Such moves often lead to even more reserve charges.
Then, too, executives at rival concerns such as Liberty Mutual, Chubb and W.R. Berkley WRB -1.2705238467552775% W.R. Berkley Corp. U.S.: NYSE USD50.51 -0.65 -1.2705238467552775% /Date(1427835892855-0500)/ Volume (Delayed 15m) : 641330 AFTER HOURS USD50.51 % Volume (Delayed 15m) : 6582 P/E Ratio 9.962524654832347 Market Cap 6436490587.79739 Dividend Yield 0.8711146307661849% Rev. per Employee 931250 More quote details and news » (WRB) claim that Chartis has been cutting premiums, boosting coverages and relaxing terms and conditions over the past three years to protect its top line and book of business. Certainly Chartis has been vulnerable to competitors poaching both its clients and better employees during a period when many doubted the very financial survival of AIG. "All they could do was misbehave by competing on price," asserts the normally outspoken CEO of a major casualty-insurance company, who in light of the coming stock offering asked for anonymity. "The reality is that their reserves could still be grossly inadequate."
Rob Schimek, Chartis' chief financial offer, says the reserves are ample. He adds that the company has dramatically scaled back the businesses that accounted for the bulk of the shortfalls, such as workers' compensation.
The Bottom Line
At a recent $32, AIG shares look overpriced. Considering problems related to reserves and other issues, they're worth closer to $23. That doesn't bode well for the share offering.
Terry Leone, a senior financial analyst at the research outfit SNL, is less inhibited. He observes: "The fact that AIG has fanned on its reserving in nine of the past 10 years, insisting each time that they'd finally gotten it right, is discouraging.'' Even worse, he says, AIG failed to get its pricing right from 2002 to 2007, when other companies were dramatically raising premium rates. Thus Chartis has been forced to take reserve charges in recent years, while competitors like Chubb have found themselves over-reserved and able to push those redundancies into earnings.
ANOTHER MAJOR AIG OPERATION that looks materially overvalued is ILFC, boasting a book value of $8.2 billion and a lease fleet of about 1,000 commercial airliners. Gary Liebowitz of Wells Fargo Securities points out in various reports that ILFC took a $416 million impairment charge in last year's third quarter on the sale of 62 of its newer aircraft, which works out to a charge of about $6.7 billion if spread across the entire fleet. He also notes that an attempt by ILFC to sell a majority interest in 300 of its older, out-of-production planes elicited such pathetically low bids from three private-equity syndicates that AIG scotched any deal. The impairment charges resulting for the entire fleet would have been too damaging.
Liebowitz also points to aggressive accounting tactics that ILFC has apparently used to pump up earnings. Among other things, he contends the maintenance reserves carried by ILFC are far smaller in relation to the size of its fleet than those of various competitors, implying that ILFC has taken them into earnings more quickly. Too, Liebowitz asserts that if ILFC used the same depreciation-charge schedule as General Electric Capital Aviation Services rather than its less-aggressive charges, it would penalize annual operating earnings by nearly $500 million.
The company disputes this, saying its accounting meets U.S. standards.
Even if AIG's stock falls from current levels, the outcome for taxpayers could be satisfactory. While the new shares would need to be priced at nearly $29 apiece for the Treasury to avoid losses, taxpayers would be OK at $22. Their losses at those levels would be entirely offset by the profit the Fed most likely will reap on residential mortgage-backed paper it acquired on AIG's behalf at the nadir of the financial crisis.
In other words, it's only the shareholders who have to worry.

What tips do you have for South Florida Gardeners?
What tips do you have for South Florida Gardeners?
If you go native, be prepared for the rare deep freeze, like the one two years ago.
For example, I am on the edge of zone 10a, which means we can grow coconut palms, but barely. They've grown in my neighborhood for years and years. That freeze killed ALL of them. Not a single coconut palm to be seen now.
I'd like to have one, but if I can find room for one, I will have plenty of strands of Christmas lights and a ratty blanket to try to protect it (but that's another thread).
I moved from NC to Florida and it looks like I need to learn to garden from scratch! The seasons are different, there is no soil, just sand, and the bug variety is never ending.
I am planting fruit trees and could use any tips on how to feed and keep them healthy organically.
Please help. Thank you.
My best tip is to make use of the University of Florida's website & your county extension resources - indispensable, as far as I'm concerned. UF has a great vegetable gardening guide, which you can easily find using those keywords.
There is also a page of 'shrubs fact sheets' - a long list of commonly grown FL plants:
Another great web resource is Floridata.com

Seed Shopping Partner Wanted
I got my catalog from Pinetree Garden Seeds, and I'm drooling. So many nice heirloom veggies to choose from!
I really wish I had a partner to coordinate with me on January food-seed buying, since my budget is very tight.
Who wants to partner up with me?
I'd prefer someone who has successfully traded with me before, but I'm game to pair up with anyone whose R&R page impresses me. :)
Instead of each person buying 12 different packs of heirloom veg. seeds each person could buy 6 packs (Partner A could buy, say, 2 lettuces and/or salad greens, 2 sweet peppers, a random interesting heirloom veg, and a purple broccoli).
Partner B could buy 6 different ones than Partner A (maybe 2 asian veggies, heirloom sweet corn, some purple carrots, and some salsify or artichokes).
Then the 2 partners could swap partial seedpacks, and both partners would get great variety AND save some money. :)
I am delighted that GW's Incredible Heirlooms is doing an heirlooom tomato seed swap in Jan. I joined the fun there.
At least I won't need to order any tomato seeds this year, I believe. :)

Just like us, celebrities love to take pictures of their favorite new purchases and share them with their followers. Case in point: Beyoncé's public obsession with Topshop [1]. The best part about them sharing their sartorial scores is that we can get our hands on them too!

Yet even more agree.
On perfectly recorded tracks, no headphone I would rather listen to besides my T-90.
Than includes the K812, K7-series, HD800, and even the venerable T-1.
I've never yet tried the Stax 009 though.
