Most of the comments have added quite a bit of value to the articles. We can ignore the obviously ignorant mrflabbergasted. He can't even spell.
I have been to Japan fifteen times and have fell in love with the food. Most North American food now makes me ill if I eat it more then once per week.
I am lucky to live in Vancouver, which has a thriving Japanese community and lucky for me, the best Japanese food outside of Japan. I still make an annual pilgramage to the Mecca of food though.
As he describes mr. Mizutani's place and skill - a few seats, the scrubbed counter, the rice tub, the quick, deft movements, the simplicity -, the correspondent could be talking about Komazushi, a small sushya in S�o Paulo, Brazil, in the 1990s. Takatomo Hachinohe, a Japanese immigrant, now deceased, was the owner. His wife, Takae, asked you as you arrived: beer, tea or water? And that was all you had to decide. They took care of the rest. Hachinohe could be taciturn and aloof, but his sushis were glorious. Jun Sakamoto, whose own place (a lot more upscale) is recommended by The Economist's S�o Paulo guide, was a pupil of Hachinohe's.All the same, Mizutani having a meat breakfast at Tsukiji, and explaining why he needs honest and simple food, could be Mitsuaki Shimizu at lunch in his busy Sushi-gen place, also in S�o Paulo. Shimizu makes fine battera (vinegared horse mackerel pressed with sushi rice in a wooden box) and a wonderful tirashizushi (a bowl of assorted raw fish, pickled vegetables and other delicacies over a rice bed). I guess I'll have to go there tonight, after reading this fascinating Tokyo diary! I'll remember to offer a double toast: to the correspondent and to the monster cities of Tokyo and S�o Paulo, impossibly close antipodes (notwithstanding mr. Mizutani's opinion about sushi outside his own city, S�o Paulo's large Japanese-Brazilian population care a lot about their food).
All I can say is...I want your job!
Frankly,japanese food isn't all that great as it hyped up to be.With elementary ingredients, some of it taken from Mainland China, or the overrated, outrageously priced sushi and now overfishing because of it's popularity was taken from Thailand's origin of consuming raw fish. If we were to compare the herbs used in japan with its'asian neighbors, every other asian country would put japan to shame. Lets not forget to thank americans ingenuity for introducing japanese to hotdogs and spam. Give credit to the japanese for introducing subtle japanese taste, because their lack of ingredients compliments westerners appetite, i=I also would like to see this person tried more inspired cuisines like asian blender food, ah the blender made for people with no teeth.
i've been in japan on and off since 1993. it's pretty obvious that the japanese make the french look like a nation of mcdonald's lovers. an amazing amount of tv time is spent either watching people cook food, watching people eat food, watching people describe food or watching people looking at food. oishiiii is probably the most heard word on japanese tv. finally, a lot of stuff about tokyo, but osaka is considered (considers itself) the culinary capital of the country....
Thank you so much for this great diary! m(_ _)mJust reading it made my mind jump back to Japan, the country I love so much.Thinking back on the time I spent in Japan, I always found it easier to locate great places to enjoy food once I was faraway from the big cities - my best experience being a small Izakaya in Morioka, where I spent the evening munching on seafood of an amazing quality, sipping on some beer and sake, and chatting merrily with the Chef of the house and two or three of his regular guests. Shiawase, shiawase...
A wonderful diary. I remember a few nights out in Tokyo with a Mexican colleague. We always found delicious food and warm, friendly ambience in theneighborhood joints, even speaking an awful mix of Japanese, English, Portuguese and Spanish. But after a few beers, we were trading jokes with the Japanese staff and customers (and laughing heartily - just don't ask me what about). I still remember the horse mackerel sashimi. By the way, thank you for the sharp bit of film criticism. "Lost in Translation" is indeed a silly, provincial thing. And full of prejudice, too. I never understood the excitement over this half-brained film (maybe Scarlett Johanssen blinds the critical sense).
Tokyo certainly has a plethora of places to eat and drink but the real challenge is finding them. Forget lonely planet, don't even bother with a map. Tokyo is a labyrinth of hidden gems. One of my favourites and easier places to find is 'Ninja Asaka' Just remember to start looking for a diner once you've finished lunch because it may take that long to find were you're headed. And although modern izakyas can be cheap a more traditional restaurant will be anything but. Be glad for the cheap bear at izakyas because the majority of westerners will find that most dishes are putrid without a few pints to numb the pain. Pan-fried tripe is a common dish. They even made a movie about it. Just be glad you don't live in rural Japan like me!
Fascinating article, well written and descriptive. I suspect, as the writer implies, that food is the half of it, and the social aspect is probably what has kept such places so popular in Japan's flux. I admit to having only a vague idea of what might go in in a 'no pantsu shabu-shabu', but the eloquently hilarious name alone entices me, and with food to boot? Most definitely in . . .
For Japonica - I feel that nearly every place in the world has some form of local cafe that is well-attended, it's just a matter of knowing where to look and in some cases knowing what to overlook. I would suggest that most such establishments have a relatively cheap board of fare as locals wouldn't eat there otherwise. England is no different.
It's great to see that these great but previously hidden eating places are getting on the radar screen of foreign visitors to Japan. This was not always the case. When I lived in Japan 30 years ago you would hardly find any foreigner in these places and definitely no visitors, unless knowing residents would bring them along. The whole culinary scene in Tokyo especially has totally changed and the choices, especially for western food, have multiplied exponentially from the red and white checkered table cloth Italian eateries we used to patronize. I still remember the big thing it was when the first McDonalds store was opened on the Ginza!
Gee you are a britton but seems never visited HongKong or Singapore, the foods there are far better and there are far more varieties. If you really want things cheap, China, Thailand, ..., so many places are much cheaper than eating in Tokyo, EVEN for a local salaried white collar worker.
In Japan the food quality is probably the best, but I can't live with Ramen or Odon or pickles and carrots, and the beef bowls in LA for $4 is better quality cut and juicier than in Tokyo for 800 yen (from the same chain Yoshinoya).
The world does not only include Britain and Japan.
Competition in Tokyo is also pretty brutal, which serves to keep costs down. If you serve something for 1000 yen that can be bought for 800 yen at the same level of quality elsewhere you're out of business in 6 months. The large selection also keeps costs down, if something is too expensive, there is always an alternative.
I heard raw materials cost something like 20-30% of a meal, which is probably higher than in Europe. The portions are maybe smaller, but not very much smaller. The rents are also probably higher. That basically leaves lower personnel costs, regulatory compliance cost, lower taxes or higher turn-over as a factors for lower prices
Japonica,Sir, That is an excellent question. Japan is essentially the Britain of Asia in terms of its geographic isolation, its love-hate relationship with the Continent, and its avant-grade culture (for its continent). Both are also net food importers.Japan is, though, more populuous and much much more urbanized and the one possible explanation that jumps out is that economies of scale benefit the Tokyo vendor much more than they do the London vendor. I have no idea if food regulations have anything to do with inflating the cost of food in London versus Tokyo.
This article will come as no suprise to any gaijin who has set foot in Japan for more than a week.
What so intrigued me about the Japanese megacities, so detached from the rest of East Asia (let alone the rest of the world) is that nestled amongst the akira-esque concrete and neon maze that one is subjected to is a veritable plethora of eateries, which serve all tastes and wallets.
Eating out in Tokyo or Osaka is suprisingly democratic. People in Japan eat out frequently, more than 5 times is week is the norm, not the exception. Cheap lunches for salariman can be had for 500 yen (�2.50) which will typically include a hearty meal, refillable green tea and some ginger/pickles, acting to cleanse the palette prior to the meal.
I found this a marvel - the quality of food in Japan really is the best. Everyone can afford to eat out and this can be seen in the frankly bewildering number of restaurants. The choice can be mesmerising. As a Londoner, where eating for a sit down similar lunch is 1000 yen (�5) (at an absolute minumum!) this was a total revelation.
I have never been better fed than whilst in Japan and return to the Land of the Rising Sun once a year to gorge myself.
Which brings me to beg the question of why is it so expensive to eat out in Britain? Any detailed answers would be very much appreciated.
What's on offer for the vegetarians who don't eat meat or fish?
The current Tokyo Michelin guide only covers 8 of the 23 wards, so the quality difference between Paris and Tokyo is pretty big. It us unfortunate that the Japanese fast food chains haven't attempted to expand to Europe yet. It would give a good jolt to European restaurants. The Japanese bar tenders are also among the best, if not the best, in the world
Only spent several days in Japan. I can eat sushi and sashimi every lunch and dinner, sushi in North America can't match the freshness and variety, even the price. Other than fish, others are not as good as Japanese food in the US, Kobe beef was good but I am not a banker.
And lastly, does Japanese eat vegetables other than carrots and daikan? I can't even find much in Tokyo supermarkets.
kisekiman wrote:"The occasional flap of the tail and gulping mouth may not be to everyones taste"I suspect that grilling and eating the scotch fillet straight out of a live cow is not to everyone's taste either. Okay, it's not quite valid to equate fish and cattle as sentient beings, but I really don't see the point of doing this for the sake of a transient pleasure.
Seconding the eel restaurants. In Hong Kong, we're lucky to have a large Japanese population and several good izakaya, ramenya, and bakeries, but eel restaurants are something we sadly lack. During a recent trip to Tokyo, I went to four or five different eel restaurants -- the highlight of every trip! I already want to go back for more. :(
Got to agree. I lived in Tokyo as a poor student for two years, and as a salaried banker for five. I learned that the best - and cheapest - are the neighborhood restaurants. I would walk the city - and other cities - and find real delights. I won't argue with Michelin - but there are many flowers born to blush unseen - unless you look for them - frequently under your nose.

20 embarrassing phrases even smart people misuse
posted by Laura Domela
When you hear someone using grammar incorrectly do you make an assumption about his or her intelligence or education? There's no doubt that words are powerful things that can leave a lasting impression on those with whom you interact. In fact, using an idiom incorrectly or screwing up your grammar is akin to walking into a meeting with messy hair. That's according to Byron Reese, CEO of the venture-backed internet startup Knowingly. The company recently launched Correctica, a tool that scans websites looking for errors that spell checkers miss. And the business world is no exception. "When I look for these errors on LinkedIn profiles, they're all over the place--tens of thousands," he says.
Correctica recently scanned a handful of prominent websites and you might be surprised at how many errors it found. Here is Reese's list of the some of the most commonly misused phrases on the Web.

Why it won't be long until we ride in driverless cars
posted by Laura Domela
Our future will include driverless cars.
At this year's CES, car companies and graphics card manufacturers alike featured the technology that they believe will power the vehicles of tomorrow. I remember each morning of CES as I sipped coffee on the stoop of The Verge's trailer, watching Volkswagen demonstrate its new driverless parking functionality. The demonstration looked silly, but felt like looking at the not-so-distant future — sort of like how the ASIMO demonstration at Disneyland feels both gimmicky and like a prescient warning of our robot overlords.

Bird-inspired self-folding wings could help drones recover from collisions
posted by Larra Morris
If you've ever watched a flying bird weaving its way through a forest, you may have wondered how it could do so without hitting its wings on the trees. Well, birds actually do hit trees with their wings. Unlike the rigid wings of an aircraft, however, birds' wings simply fold back under impact, then immediately fold open again to maintain flight. Now, scientists from Stanford University have developed wings for flapping-wing drones that do the same thing.

Colorado students create a bright red 3D-printed exoskeleton for a malnourished tortoise with a damaged shell

When design students at Colorado Technical University (CTU) in Colorado Springs learned that a rescued female tortoise named Cleopatra at Canyon Critters had a severely deformed shell due to malnutrition, they set about finding a solution with a 3D printer.

LONG ISLAND JOURNAL; At 11, a Violin Virtuoso and Author, Too
By MARCELLE S. FISCHLER
Published: March 9, 2003
IT was only 1:30 p.m., but 11-year-old Jourdan Urbach was already home from school. With an abbreviated academic schedule, he had time to run through Mendelssohn's Violin Concerto in E Minor, part of the three hours of practice he does each day, starting at the crack of dawn before the school bus picks him up. The 4-foot 7-inch prodigy sat primly on the sofa in the spotless den of his Roslyn home, using big words as he matter-of-factly ticked off career coups. Coming up is the classical violin concert today at 4:30 p.m. at the Syosset Library and another at the Bryant Library in Roslyn on April 6, followed by a book signing for his recently published first novel, ''Leaving Jeremiah'' (Goose River Press, 2003).
In January he played Carnegie Hall for the third time, and last month he played on ''Good Morning America.'' On Oct. 22, he is scheduled to play the Bruch violin concerto at Alice Tully Hall at Lincoln Center with the Park Avenue Chamber Symphony.
''When I was 2 3/4, my mom put a violin in my hands and I really haven't looked back since,'' Jourdan said. ''I think I chose the violin because it had tremendous pathos. It emulates the human voice more than any other instrument I know.''
Jourdan founded and is the main performer in Children Helping Children, a musical charity. Through gala benefits and gigs at pediatric wards at area hospitals, he performs with other young musicians, including his 7-year-old brother, Alec, a gifted cellist. The foundation has raised thousands for Beth Israel Medical Center's Institute for Neurology and Neurosurgery.
Jourdan had the vocabulary of a college student at 18 months, said his mother, Deborah, who installed herself on a far chair to keep the spotlight on Jourdan but carefully monitored the interview. She said he was reading and doing math by 22 months, skipped the second grade and is in seventh-grade accelerated math even though he is in the sixth grade at Roslyn Middle School. As a toddler, he sang in perfect pitch and carried around a tape player loaded with classical cassettes.
''I taught myself high school biology, anatomy and physiology and a little bit of earth science, but mostly I am going to do that in eighth grade,'' Jourdan said. Meanwhile, he is teaching himself high school chemistry.
''I'm really interested in genetics,'' Jourdan said.
He said he started with the Suzuki violin method but soon was under the tutelage of the violinist Patinka Kopec of Juilliard and the Manhattan School of Music and the Perlman Music Program on Shelter Island.
Jourdan has been playing tennis as long as the violin and recently took up golf for fun.But other distractions have been few. He doesn't watch television. ''I never had an urge for it,'' Jourdan said.
Mom keeps his nose to the grindstone. She said she doesn't just drop him off at his violin lessons. She videotapes them, takes notes and writes down every comment the teacher makes on what to fix and how to fix it. Dr. Urbach, 43, practices with Jourdan daily. His father, Victor, 46, a marketing consultant, is not musical.
''Jourdan is not pushed,'' said Dr. Urbach, though she admitted she began exposing her son to music while he was still in the womb. ''If your kids are on a higher level, you have the obligation to give them the materials that will allow them to fly.''
It took Jourdan five months to write the book, mostly during the summer and a vacation to Jupiter Island last April, where the story begins in a fictional orphanage called Jeremiah. A lonely orphan named Daniel, who shares Jourdan's intellectual pursuits, stows away on a flight that gets sucked down a black hole into Prehistoria, a technologically advanced fictional land beneath the sea with oversize, man-eating lizards. Daniel meets Vegan, an outcast vegetarian lizard who eventually persuades the others to change their eating habits to prolong their lives. Jourdan said that he is also a vegetarian but that the coming-of-age story is really about relationships and the importance of having friends. He is working on another book, ''Inside the Music,'' a compilation of interviews with other child prodigies.
''I try to explain to him that life doesn't happen this way with orchestral debuts and publishing books,'' piped in Dr. Urbach, a vocal teacher with a doctorate in biblical studies and ancient Near Eastern literature along with a graduate degree as a cantor. She confessed she was also precocious.
But in some ways Jourdan is simply a child. He plays electric and classical guitar with friends in a basement rock band . He admitted he had ''a short fuse'' and was not organized. A hammock over Jourdan's bed was filled with stuffed animals. A copy of ''101 Ways to Promote Yourself'' sat on top of his bookcase. Jourdan claimed it was his mother's. Dr. Urbach said it belonged to her husband.
While at East Hills Elementary School, Jourdan was enthralled by ''Gifts of Time,'' by Dr. Fred Epstein, a top pediatric neurologist at Beth Israel. An interview with Dr. Epstein led to a chance to watch a surgery.
''He is my hero,'' Jourdan said, planning to be a neurosurgeon and play violin on the side.

Wonderful Experience!! by Zena - 01/18/2013
I went here about two weeks ago with my mother. This was the first place I had been to try on wedding dresses. The store itself it beautiful! It looks like a high end boutique you'd find in the city. We had the entire store to ourselves and the owner said we could take as much time as we needed to find the perfect dress. I had so much fun and I felt so relaxed. I even think I found the dress of my dreams! However the owner said there was no pressure to buy. She even suggested I walk away and come back if its truly my dress. I know that if I buy a dress from her, I would certainly be taken care of. My mom and I walked away from there with wonderful memories of my first time in a bridal gown. I never write reviews but this one is more than deserved. This bridal store is a hidden gem in hunterdon county! Check them out!
LOVED THIS PLACE! GO HERE!!! by Megan - 08/22/2012
fully recommend this store and these women (pauline and Linda) to ANYONE. I feel honored to even write anything about them. You walk into the shop and feel love, joy, understanding, sense of protection, and open caring and helpful arms. I felt special, listened to, understood, and important by pauline. Shes gracious, honest, and genuine. I can not say enough good about and recommend more highly Three Graces Bridal. I am thrilled that I get to tell people I bought my gown from this classy woman. Pauline you were/are a blessing in my life and our wedding will be elegant because you dressed me. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. I am going to write on as many sites as I can about my AMAZING experience at this place. Such a blessing. such an important moment in my life. Thank you.

By Messianic we mean that we are Jews and non-Jews who have accepted Yeshua (Jesus) as Messiah and Savior of Israel and the nations. We believe He sacrificed Himself to atone for our sins.
By Jewish we mean that we strive to live a Jewish lifestyle in our homes and congregation based first and foremost on biblical instruction and secondly on the traditions of our ancestors. We have not abandoned our Jewish identity or cultural expression because of our faith in Messiah Yeshua.
By Congregation we mean that we are a body of people from many different ethnic, social and religious backgrounds who have been brought together by our faith in the God of Abraham and are committed to one another. It is our desire to be a spiritual, emotional and social support to one another. We recognize that as a Jewish congregation we are a unique expression of the larger congregation of believers in the Messiah.

Institute of High Performance Computing, Sembcorp Marine Ltd, University of Glasgow and University of Glasgow Singapore have signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) to collaborate and develop new hull designs for large ocean-going vessels and make them more environmentally friendly. Under the three-year MoU, IHPC, Sembcorp Marine Ltd, University of Glasgow and UGS will use computational modeling and visualisation technologies to design vessels with improved hydrodynamics for better fuel efficiency. In addition, they will collaborate and innovate on features to reduce harmful exhaust emissions and discharges by enhancing the vessel's scrubber and ballast treatment systems. The partnership will form an eco-system that creates value from unique technologies and research talent. The collaboration will employ multi-physics computation to build modeling and simulation capabilities. It will combine the scientific expertise from IHPC, University of Glasgow and UGS, with Sembcorp Marine's knowledge and wealth of experience in industrial maritime applications. Under this research collaboration, Sembcorp Marine and IHPC will analyse and improve gas abatement technology, using an enhanced scrubber design to address the emission of harmful gases like sulphur oxides (SOx), nitrous oxides (NOx), particulate matter and greenhouse gases, in particular CO2, from the ship's heavy fossil fuel burning combustion engines. Such designs and technology are also needed to meet the International Maritime Organization's new 2015 standards on ship-related air pollutants and marine environmental issues. Beyond the current areas of focus, the three organizations hope to expand the scope of the collaboration to create a more comprehensive package of solutions for more efficient ocean-going vessels. The partners are also looking at the possibility of a joint laboratory to advance R&D in this area.

It's all well and good talking about different versions of hardware but most people first become aware of alternative OSs when they already own the hardware. If they already have a 'Windows machine' then they will be blocked from installing Linux or any other operating system and they aren't likely to buy into something they don't know about when they buy new hardware. I am a die hard Linux user but would never have become one had I not been able to run a kjve distro,and install it on my existing machine

Curren$y - Jet Life (Remix)
Artist: Curren$y
Producer: Big K.R.I.T.
Album: The Stoned Immaculate
Avg Rating: 2.8 ( 6 votes )
Currently riding high (literally, I imagine) off the success of his major-label debut album, Curren$y sits back and luxuriates in his achievements on the official remix of reader-acclaimed single Jet Life. For this version of the record, Spitta proves just how upper-echelon he's become by inviting two national heavyweights, Lil Wayne and Young Jeezy, to join him over the smooth production of Big K.R.I.T. (who guested on the original cut along with Wiz Khalifa). Fans can find the album version of Jet Life and much more on The Stoned Immaculate, released June 5, via Warner Bros.

It also had magnificent gardens which Max admired with envy! Apparently they have 13 full time gardeners plus apprencitices!

Peace Lily Help
Please help me save my Peace Lily. I'm more of a black thumb than green, but I love this plant. Purchased a couple of months ago from a supermarket in a biopot that didn't have holes. Within days the few flowers started to brown. I cut them as per instructions I found online. Green leaves continued to brown/yellow. I repotted in a ceramic pot with hole using Miracle Gro Moisture Control. The roots were plentiful and white, but root bound. There was no dirt outside of the roots.
Things have gone downhill from there. There was a time it looked great, but then the leaves started to turn brown and yellow. I was watering once a week, but the Moisture control, seems to make the dirt drier so I don't know how often to water anymore. And now there are powdery white spots on the leaves. But not spider-web like ones, I've seen described elsewhere. Are these from bugs? Is it okay to put the plant back into the holeless bio pot?
Thanks for help.
Re-pot into a free-draining mix.
No moisture control, no peat moss.
Remove the old soil and any rotten, congested roots.
If you don't want to make your own mix (which would be best),
I would recommend buying a bag of "Orchid Mix," and then adding extra Perlite.
Always use a container with drainage holes.

MADRID - Spain's San Sebastian Film Festival will host the European premiere of Dana Brown's motorcycle riding documentary "On Any Sunday, The Next Chapter" as part of the second edition of its Savage Cinema section, dedicated to action sports and aventure movies.
An exploration into the pursuit of excitement, passion and life in the two-wheeled world of motorcycle riding, "On Any Sunday, The Next Chapter" marks the sequel to Steve McQueen-starrer "On Any Sunday," a seminal docu helmed by Brown's father, Bruce Brown, which won an Oscar nomination in 1972.
Bruce Brown, also well know for helming 1966′s classic surfing docu "Endless Summer," takes an exec producer credit on the "One Any Sunday" sequel.
Produced by Red Bull Media House and Freeride Entertainment, the contemporary installment of the "On Any Sunday" saga features professional riders such as Robbie Maddison, Marc Marquez, Ashley Fiolek, Travis Pastrana, Kenny Roberts or Dani Pedrosa, plus celebrities such as Mickey Rourke.
The Savage Cinema section is the fruit of a pioneering partnership deal inked last year by the San Sebastian Festival and Red Bull Media House.
For its sophomore edition, Savage Cinema has teamed with Northern Spain's artists collective El Solitario to use El Solitario's bike Impostor as the section's poster so as to transmit a radical, powerful and wild image of the motorcycle culture.
The San Sebastian event has also teamed with surf and bikes fest Wheels & Waves, which kicks off Thursday in the French Atlantic city of Biarritz, to premiere a Savage Cinema short film featuring Impostor.
The Savage Cinema section is accepting online submissions from films related to action sports and outdoor adventure in any genre until July 16.
The San Sebastian Film Festival's 62th edition will run Sept. 19-27.

In the middle of the night, a controversial U.S. senator is found murdered in bed in his Georgetown pied-a-terre. The police turn up only one clue: a mysterious rhyme signed "Jack and Jill" promising that this is just the beginning. Jack and Jill are out to get the rich and famous, and they will stop at nothing until their fiendish plan is carried out.
Meanwhile, Washington, D. C., homicide detective Alex Cross is called to a murder scene only blocks from his house, far from the corridors of power where he spends his days. The victim: a beautiful little girl, savagely beaten--and desposited in front of the elementary school Cross's son, Damon, attends.
Could there be a connection between the two murders? As Cross tries to put the pieces together, the killer- or killers - strike again. And again. No one in Washington is safe - not children, not politicians, not even the President of the United States. Only Alex Cross has the skills and the courage to crack the case-but will he discover the truth in time?
A relentless roller coaster of heart-pounding suspense and jolting plot twists, Jack and Jill proves that no one can write a more compelling thriller than James Patterson-the master of the nonstop nightmare.
James Patterson has had more New York Times bestsellers than any other writer, ever, according to Guinness World Records. Since his first novel won the Edgar Award in 1977 James Patterson's books have sold more than 240 million copies. He is the author of the Alex Cross novels, the most popular detective series of the past twenty-five years, including Kiss the Girls and Along Came a Spider. He writes full-time and lives in Florida with his family.
Dual narrators and the clever use of sound effects such as gunshots and crowd noises contribute to this thriller featuring psychologist Alex Cross. Narrators John Rubenstein and Blair Underwood offer their own styles as the story unfolds through different points of view. Underwood perfects Alex Cross's deliberate nature with a steady performance and succeeds in building tension appropriately. Rubenstein's rendering of the killers is equally impressive, showing the aloofness of the almost inhuman sociopaths. Although the abridgment may cause listeners to feel they've missed some of the plot along the way, there is enough to tie everything together in the end.

Get Ready Before It's Too Late!
"Red sky at morning gives sailors first warning." This photo was taken today!
A blustery Rocky Mountain wind pummeled our house all night and is still thrashing our trees causing their remaining leaves to tumble like autumnal rain. A change in the weather is coming.
Meteorologists have been predicting this storm like salivating dogs staring through the window of a butcher shop, or better yet, like snowbirds drooling over brochures of Mexican cruises. It was in the 70's yesterday and we'll plunge to a high of 15 by Wednesday.

Want More Followers? Use Me and Abuse Me – Colorful Colorado Edition
Hello Wild Riders! If you would like more blog followers, here's your chance.
Every writer loves to watch their blog grow. But it's tough when bloggers we have followed for a while take a break or stop posting. Comments and views dwindle. Although new readers follow our blogs every day, we need to bring them back. How do we do that? COMMUNITY. We build it through reaching out and connecting with them. We get to know them through reading their blogs, leaving comments, and following them on social media.
Here's your chance to build your own community. Use Me and Abuse Me while virtually partying down with my friends in the comment section!
Bring a link from ONE of your blog posts and promote it briefly in my comment section. Click on a few of my friend's links and check out their digs. Hang out for a while. Get acquainted. Leave a comment and tell them, "Susie sent me." They should click back to your place. Then come back to the party and click on a few more. The more you click, the more fun you'll have!
- Do not leave a link to one of your friend's posts. They won't come back to party with us. It's no fun to knock on a door and wait…and wait…and wait…….It ruins the atmosphere.
- Do not leave your link and run without clicking on a few. This is a major party foul.
- Leave ONE link. Two will send you into my spam filter and that is always so embarrassing for both of us.
So have a blast meeting my friends. They are the best in the blogosphere!
My son, DJ Kelly Smash, is in the house and he'll be dropping the bass. He's used to ragers on my blog, so come back anytime. This party usually lasts for days.
The bar is stocked and the barista can make any coffee drink imaginable. She's amazing! The buffet is filled with pastries and delectable treats flown in from around the world. Sit back relax and click to meet my friends. Oh yeah and don't forget to DANCE!
PLEASE SHARE! Let's make this party the biggest ever!
Traveling North by Plane, Car, Boat, Bike, Foot, and Hooves
My husband, Danny, and I wrapped up a wild summer filled with travel by heading to Michigan for a wedding. Knowing this would entail a variety of transportation, our children opted out. They couldn't take the vacation time. After an uneventful flight (Yeah!) from Denver to Detroit, we rented a car and drove up north to the top of the state.
Growing up in the sister state of Wisconsin, "up north," was synonymous with vacation and cottages on lakes. Now that I think about it, since Madison is located in the southernmost part, almost everywhere in the state is north.
After a four-and-a-half hour drive, we arrived in Mackinaw City. We paid a toll then drove over the longest bridge in the western hemisphere, 8,614 feet long, to St. Ignace. The Mackinac Bridge links the upper and lower peninsulas of Michigan.
I learned something! Apparently, because Lake Michigan is on the west coast and Lake Huron on the east with the Straits of Mackinac between them, the entire state is a peninsula. The peninsula has a peninsula. I traveled there to ski Indianhead Mountain back in college. We fondly call the U.P. (upper peninsula) inhabitants, Upers which is pronounced – youpers.

Roxy and Squirrel and the Contest
Our dog Roxy has a friend. Squirrel hangs out in our oak trees or on the roof and waits for her to come out into the yard. He chirps and chatters and makes a ruckus. He acts like this is HIS yard. Roxy knows better. A showdown occurs every day. I wouldn't mind except our petite 15 pound Bichon has an enormous set of lungs. When she starts barking, it echoes off the Rocky Mountains. It sets off car alarms. The coyotes start howling out in the open space. I can't stand it!
After a few years of this relationship, I've learned squirrel doesn't like the smell of vinegar. I sprayed in his general direction a couple of times when I was trying to get Roxy's attention. Now all I have to do is step outside and Squirrel bolts. He flies through the air from the roof or from the tops of our trees all the way to the ground. I've finally earned some respect.
I took these photos yesterday.
Squirrel knows who owns this yard. ME!
And now for a big announcement. Kippfu from A'A in Paradise won the caption contest!
You should check out my Hawaiian friend's blog and be sure to click on his surfing video on the side bar. It is waaaay too cool! You'll see a few sexy photos since he posted a picture of discretely (barely), covered boobs every day in October for breast cancer awareness. They are his top posts!
My favorite Kippfu post is Yoga Fire. It is hilarious.
Thanks to everyone who played along and voted. I'll hold another caption contest in March. Click here to see the results. It was close.
Roxy just ran through the house to her doggy door. It's dark outside and the coyotes are howling. I shut it two hours ago. She'll have to wait until tomorrow to see her furry friend.

As Muslim parents, we always look for ways to build positive characteristics in our children. In America, the problem of homelessness and hunger - while it is an issue - is not as obvious as in other parts of the world. For many children, the problem of hunger is hidden - something they can't see or experience. Sometimes our children ask for material items - more games, more videos, etc. - and cannot relate to the fact that some children their age are less fortunate. We may respond to them by … [Read more...]

How to Survive Your First Year of Motherhood in a Foreign Country
All right, I've been here in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, for about three and-a-half months now and I've probably cried the equivalent of at least one of those months so far. No, don't say "Aww, she's miserable." For the record, I'm not miserable or suicidal; I am a first time mother of a beautiful five-month-old baby boy who moved halfway across the world with my husband seven weeks after giving birth. Do I love my little boy in a completely indescribable way that only other moms would be able to un … [Read more...]
The Kids' Cupboard
With three under five, it's hard to keep track of the clothes they've outgrown, those that are still too big, and those that have graduated into hand-me-downs.

Counselor's Corner- Controlling Parental 'Hot Spots'
Every time I vow not to act a certain way with my kids, I end up doing it again. There seems to be these certain "hot spots" that really irritate me about my children.

I know that these things are not that bad, but for some reason when I see them, I turn into someone I cannot recognize. Deep down inside I know that the way I react is wrong, and almost always feel regretful afterwards, but it just ha … [Read more...]
GrowMama Roundup: The Season of Motherhood
A constant question that arises in our minds as mothers is how we can maintain individual fulfillment while making sure that our children are being nurtured and cared for. One of our GrowMama mothers posited the question this way: Why is the mother's role frequently limited to raising leaders instead of being leaders, or being the seekers of change? Am I raising two girls so that they will raise more girls who will raise more girls? Sometimes I wonder when WE get to be our own people in … [Read more...]
On Motherhood and International Diplomacy
Our decision to have a baby came about three years after we were married. Initially, we planned to do a whole list of things (including buying a house) and then start trying. But on the night of January 5, 2002 while driving home from the hospital after visiting our friends' newborn baby, I told him, "That's it. I want to start trying." Exactly one year and four days later on January 9, 2003 we were blessed with twins: a boy and a girl.As much as we hate to admit it, we really do turn into … [Read more...]
