Despite a HC order, unauthorised speed breakers keep coming up. Why doesn't the BMC still have a team to check if they are made under specified guidelines?
To my knowledge, not many speed breakers have come up in the city in the last one year. That's because our traffic department has been carrying out regular checks. They first examine if the speed breaker is required at a particular spot in the first place before finding out that if guidelines were followed. In case of a violation, they take action in consultation with the local ward office.
2. What has been your recent move to deal with this issue?
A: We removed a number of speed breakers that had come up in Malabar Hill area.
There are still complaints of the road bumps coming up overnight in various parts of the city
Our objective is to avoid the construction of speed breakers as much as possible, primarily for two reasons. First, they can result in accidents, contrary to what most people perceive. People often speed up their vehicles after crossing a speed breaker, which leads to accidents. Second, construction of speed breakers causes pollution. It is not good traffic engineering to construct speed breakers or for that matter vertical dividers. They are not only an eyesore, but also give a 'closed' look to the road. We plan to do away with both.
How soon will be it possible to implement this objective?
We have already appointed an agency which is working on the BMC's mobility plan. It will take into account several larger issues related to the city's roads and bridges apart from the speed breakers. A part of the plan is to increase the speed of the traffic and encourage non-motorised transport, where the speed breaker issue will also be dealt with.

The Thinking Skills Club Has A New Fresh Look
The Thinking Skills Club website for teachers and homeschoolers has had an overhaul to focus more on its main mission: helping kids think better.
Toronto ON (PRWEB) May 17, 2014
All kids learn differently, but they all have to know how to think. The Thinking Skills Club after school computer club has revamped its website to reflect its core mission: to help kids think more efficiently to support them in school.
The Thinking Skills Club offers a curriculum of online games that kids can play as an extra class activity or in an after school club environment. Winning a game nets them a piece of a Brain Puzzle, which appears on their school's Club Page where they can watch it grow. Homeschool students can also play, and have their own page as well.
The club grew out of research showing that ordinary computer games have qualities that make them ideal for developing cognitive skills. But not all games are created equal, so the club divides them into a curriculum of six sections depending on their strong suit.
Memory games develop working memory, which is important for following directions, as well as digit span, key for remembering lists, and declarative memory, important for storytelling and putting ideas together to develop knowledge. The games in the Executive Function section develop two kinds of skills, Planning and Managing and Risk and Self Control. Playing these games gives students sustained practice in these skills which builds up ability in a focused way.
Attention games are similarly divided into Sustained Attention, required for time on task, Spatial Attention, important for math and science, and Divided Attention, which help with multitasking.
The club is currently winding down for the year, but schools interested in starting in the Fall can register ahead of time.

In an Eastside neighborhood Sunday night, a 13-year-old boy lay bleeding in an alley, shot in the head and the thigh. The few signs of life, neighbors say, came from the slight movement in his legs.
Less than 24 hours later, Jarrell Tucker was dead.
The chaos started in the 100 block of North Denny Street, neighbors say, when a man punched Tucker, though it's unclear why. Tucker then, neighbors say, ran several houses down the street to tell his mother. ...

Carlos, Mondilla share PH Am lead with Foo
CANLUBANG—Seasoned internationalists Jobim Carlos and Clyde Mondilla churned out contrasting versions of 2-under-par 70s Thursday to share the opening-round lead with Singapore's Gregory Foo in the 2012 Philippine Amateur Open championship.
Carlos, the bespectacled 19-year-old regarded as the finest amateur in the land, finished bogey-bogey-par to salvage a 34-36 card, while Mondilla birdied the short eighth, his penultimate hole, to keep pace with the most feared foreigner in the field.
Foo, Singapore's former national champion and spearhead of his national team, could have taken the solo lead but for a third bogey for the day on the finishing hole of the tough North course at Cangolf here.
The leading trio stood a stroke clear of Del Monte's Leonard Lofranco in the event presented by Tanduay, Pancake House, Airphil Express and Globe Telecoms.
Mondilla, the former champion who has been very inconsistent since winning this event on his home course of Del Monte three years ago, eagled the par-5 17th and was working on a three-under card after a birdie on No. 1, his 10th hole, before dropping two consecutive shots from No. 4.
Carlos also missed a chance to grab the lead on his own after miscalculating his second shot on the 17th and dumping his 7 iron straight into the water hazard.
"It could have been better," said Carlos, who is chasing his first Open championship at home. "There were several lapses for me out there. But I still like where I am now."
Carlos finished with four birdies; Foo had five.
Lefty Andres Saldaña, the Alabang standout in the PAL Interclub, Lawrence Celestino and Korean expatriate Choi Jae-seung all matched par 72 to be just two behind.
Jerome Ng, the other spearhead of the crack Singaporean contingent, was in a group that scored 73s while Gabriel Manotoc, another teener who has shown vast improvement of late, scored a 74.
Reigning men's and boys' match play champion Rupert Zaragosa floundered on the back nine of his home course with a 43 and submitted a 79 that put him in a very precarious position going into today's second round.
Lovelyn Guiogiuio took a double bogey on the 17th but held on for a two-stroke lead over Dottie Ardina in ladies' play.
Their compatriots occupied the rest of the top 10 places, with Princess Superal shooting a 75 like Sarah Ababa and national team mainstay Andie Unson.
Amelia Yong, Singapore's reigning ladies' champion, returned an 88 and would need a low round today to make the final round on Sunday.
The leading scores (Filipino unless stated):
MEN: 70—J. Carlos 34-36, G. Foo (Sin) 35-35, C. Mondilla 36-34; 71—L. Lofranco 36-35; 72—A. Saldaña 38-34, CJ Seung (Kor) 38-34, L. Celestino 37-35; 73—K. Jahns 36-37, M. Alejandro 36-37, A. Mata 37-36, J. Ng (Sin) 36-37, G. Gandiongco 36-37, YJ Woong (Kor) 37-36; 74—G. Manotoc 35-39, P Cho (Kor) 38-36; 75—AR Ramos 41-34.
LADIES: 72—L. Guioguio 34-38; 74—D. Ardina 37-37; 75—P. Superal 36-39, A. Unson 37-38, S. Ababa 35-40; 76—S. Baraquiel 36-40; 78—J. Agojo 40-38, A. Fudolin 37-41; 79—A. Sabater 38-41; 80—C. Legaspi 42-38, V C Yi (Sin) 40-40, C. Avaricio 41-39.

Repsol Honda's Casey Stoner topped the timesheets in the MotoGP test at Sepang for the second day in a row. Repsol Honda riders swept the top three spots and a Honda has finished on top of the timesheets in every MotoGP test so far this pre-season.
The Repsol
MotoGP team continues to serve notice that it's triple-pronged attack will be a force this upcoming MotoGP season. Repsol Honda riders swept the top three positions during the second day of testing in Sepang today, with
Casey Stoner
edging out teammate Dani Pedrosa by 0.058 seconds to claim the top spot for the second day in a row. The duo started the session quickly and by their fourth trip around the track, both were lapping faster than the previous course record set by Valentino Rossi in 2009. Dani P held the top spot for most of the session until a blistering late lap by Stoner edged him out.
"We tested a lot of different things, including the 2011 fork and new shocks, and we found quite a lot of chattering with them. We spent 90% of the day on one bike trying different configurations, changing the geometry to get the new fork working with the bike, but didn't find anything that felt really good. But these things are necessary to do before the start of the season," Stoner said.
Repsol Honda's third rider, Andrea Dovizioso, grabbed the final slot in the top three with a best time of 2'00.531. Dovi put in a workman's day, logging 46 test laps while testing a new Bridgestone front tire and dialing in the clutch on his RC212V. Dovizioso's time today is a personal best for the Sepang circuit.
The fourth and fifth-fastest efforts of the day were put in by the
Factory Racing duo of Ben Spies and
Jorge Lorenzo
. Spies experimented with a few changes to his M1's chassis which he said helped him find some extra grip, and despite a small get-off at the end of the afternoon session, he still put up the fourth-fastest time of the day. Lorenzo was pleased that the latest setting changes to his bike have improved traction but is still looking for more power out of the engine.
Yamaha Factory Rider Ben Spies continues to look like a podium contender and posted the fourth-fastest time of the day.
"It was a hard and hot day today, we tried the test bike as well as my 2011 bike to reconfirm a number of new developments," Lorenzo said.
Another pair of teammates slotted into the sixth and seventh spots on today's timesheets. San Carlo Honda Gresini's Marco Simoncelli edged out his paddock mate Hiroshi Aoyama for the sixth-fastest time. Super Sic's times came down from Day 1 and Simoncelli said he's pleased with the consistency he's riding with. He did suffer a small front end crash in the final corner, though. Aoyama earned a share of the "iron man of the day award" for putting in 64 laps and didn't post his seventh-fastest time until Lap 60.
Monster Yamaha Tech 3's Colin Edwards backed up yesterday's solid efforts with the eighth-fastest time today. A Yamaha Test Team rider snuck into the top ten with the ninth-fastest lap, while Mapfre Aspar Team rider Hector Barbera was the top
finisher of the day in tenth-place, edging out factory Ducati rider Nicky Hayden who finished the day back in 12th.
The other Ducati Marlboro factory rider, Valentino Rossi, did not participate in today's test due to illness. Rossi showed up at the track but is suffering from the flu so his team told him to rest up in hopes of being able to put in a spirited day of testing tomorrow.
Rizla Suzuki's Alvaro Bautista was also under the weather today, suffering from a severe headache. He bucked up and provided his team with valuable input with the laps he was able to log, testing new Marchesini wheels, Ohlins rear shock damping specs and new electronic mapping. Bautista still managed to post the 11th best time of the day.

You Are Dumb, which is not a blog, posts new columns every weekday, except for most Tuesdays and the occasional fuckbotch. It is also a Twitter feed, @youaredumb, with content in a similar vein but much shorter. For a take on what a blog by me would be like, check out OLDNERD.
Wrong Of Wrongs
Memo to Ted Haggard: YOU ARE DUMB.
The sad part is, you're ALMOST a sympathetic figure. Almost. Because in many ways, you really are a victim. Because odds are, you're at least a little bit gay.
Now, I don't pretend to know your heart, but when you tell us that "There is part of my life that is so repulsive and dark that I've been warring against it all of my adult life", I'm guessing that it just means you're attracted to men. And the only reason you think it's something repulsive and dark and worthy of warring against all your life is that you've spent your whole life believing and preaching one of the absolute worst versions of what is itself frequently a harmful lie.
Maybe if you could have just been gay, you wouldn't have had to turn to a gay hooker for "massages" and meth. Maybe if you could have just been gay, you could have followed your alleged calling to a more open, tolerant church, instead of building an entire career and life on taking your own internalized self-hatred and projecting it outward at millions of evangelical Christians, reinforcing their bigotry and getting rich and powerful in the process.
But you did. So fuck off. You get to be the latest punchline, right next to Jim West, Mark Foley, and the dozens of closeted haters before them and yet to come. Homophobic church leader and friend to Republicans caught trysting with a gay hooker and using meth. A denial, followed by a resignation, followed by the world's most implausible partial admission, followed by crocodile tears of regret and shame.
It practically writes itself - especially the part where he said he paid for a massage and bought meth, but didn't pay for sex or actually take any of the meth. But let's be clear. The problem isn't that Haggard is gay. Or bi. Or just likes a little man-love on the down-low. The problem is the repression and suppression from the culture and the religion. That's what causes the repulsion and the darkness, the hiding and the shame, the betrayal and the hypocrisy.
Which is why it cracks me up to see right-wing pundits like LaShawn Barber try to be all gracious and talk about how all good Christians struggle with their demons. ACTUAL QUOTE TIME!
"No Christian should be surprised that Haggard may have given in to his perverted thoughts and turned them into perverted actions. It's a temptation we all face (temptation in general, people, not necessarily the same-sex kind)."
That's Christian brotherhood for you. We're all tempted, we're all sinners. But don't worry, readers, I'm no queer like that filthy Haggard!
Along similar lines, but with an added frisson of misogyny to kick things into high, we have Bruce Ware, Southern Baptist and blogger, who penned the following on his blog, Resurgence:
"Most pastors I know do not have satisfying, free, sexual conversations and liberties with their wives. At the risk of being even more widely despised than I currently am, I will lean over the plate and take one for the team on this. It is not uncommon to meet pastors' wives who really let themselves go; they sometimes feel that because their husband is a pastor, he is therefore trapped into fidelity, which gives them cause for laziness. A wife who lets herself go and is not sexually available to her husband in the ways that the Song of Songs is so frank about is not responsible for her husband's sin, but she may not be helping him either."
I love how he knows, instinctively, that he's about to say something colossally stupid, but tries to pretend it's something brave and un-PC. He's taking one for the team. Pity it's the Christian Retards*. Apparently it's the God-given right of every pastor to have non-stop freaky deaky sex with a limber, size two wife. And when they don't get it, you can't be that surprised when they turn to gay hookers.
How all these women are to obtain this level of bedroom mastery when they're supposed to remain virgins until marriage, not take sex ed classes, and avoid all prurient media is beyond me. Hell, how these pastors learn to EXPECT those things having lived the same virtuous life from the birth canal to the church aisle is a mystery. But then, I've never read the Song of Songs. Or caught the film adaptation of it on Cinemax.
Luckily, the human capacity for rationalization means that the ultra-right evangelical Christian movement won't be harmed in the slightest by one of its top pastors going down. The replacement (a local boy from Eden Prairie, no less) has been picked, the White House is pretending they never knew Haggard, and tomorrow, another half dozen states will try to add the gay-hate to their Constitutions. Yay denial!
*A team whose mascot, in case you were wondering, is a sight to behold.

So the Dow hit a record; now where do we go?
Sunday - 3/17/2013, 8:24pm EDT
Associated Press
NEW YORK (AP) -- So the Dow Jones industrial average broke a record this month. Now what?
It's impossible to predict how the Dow, that popular barometer of the stock market, will zig and zag from here. The only thing certain about the market is that there will be more peaks and valleys ahead, and that's about as specific as a fortune cookie.
But we can look at the previous times the Dow burst through a record, and measure how long it kept rising and why it eventually stopped -- ending the bull market. And what does history show?
After it broke one record, the Dow kept rising for nearly nine years. After another, it rose for seven years, and after another, for five. But after one, it topped out just two months later. In most cases, the bull run ended because inflation and interest rates were rising and investors feared a recession loomed. Those conditions don't exist today.
The Dow closed at 14,253.77 on March 5, beating its October 2007 record by 89 points. In the eight trading days since, it has risen on seven of them, setting a record each time. Its only down day was Friday.
So far, its highest close ever was Thursday, when it reached 14,539.14.
Here are previous long-held Dow records since World War II, when they were broken and what happened after. Jamie Farmer, a managing director at S&P Dow Jones Indices, helped with the calculations.
--RECORD DAY: Nov. 23, 1954. The Dow breaks the record that had stood since September 1929, closing at 382.74.
--RISE CONTINUES: It keeps rising for seven years, gains 92 percent and peaks at 734.91 on Dec. 13, 1961.
The Dow's record-breaking day in 1954 was a long time coming. It had been 25 years since the index hit 381.17 on Sept. 3, 1929, when the Roaring Twenties were still roaring. The Dow plunged in the Great Depression and bottomed at 41.22 in 1932 -- down an astonishing 89 percent from the 1929 peak. For the rest of the 1930s, it never came close to regaining all its losses. The highest it reached was 194.40 in 1937 -- still down nearly 50 percent from the 1929 high.
During World War II, from 1941 to 1945, the Dow rose to 174. Peacetime spurred it even higher, helped by a baby boom and a desire to spend after years of rationing. The U.S. became the world's powerhouse economy because the economies of Europe and Japan were wrecked by the war.
After a late '40s bear, the Dow went on a bull market run that lasted from 1949 to 1961, its longest ever.
On Dec. 13, 1961, the Dow finally peaked at 734.91, and then it languished. In the spring of 1962, President John F. Kennedy's fight with Big Steel over the industry's price increases made businesses nervous about how they'd fare under his tenure. Their apprehension deepened when Kennedy famously said, "My father always told me that all businessmen were sons of bitches, but I never believed it til now!" (He said later that he didn't mean to refer to the entire business community.)
By June 26, 1962, the index had fallen 27 percent from the previous year's record, to 535.76.
--RECORD BREAKER: Sept. 5, 1963. The Dow breaks the record that had stood since 1961, closing at 737.98.
--RISE CONTINUES: It keeps rising for almost two and a half years, gains 35 percent and peaks at 995.15 on Feb. 9, 1966.
The Dow bounced back from its so-called "Kennedy Crash," and on Sept. 5, 1963, it set a new all-time high, up 38 percent from its low in June 1962. President Kennedy had taken pains to reach out to businesses and promised lower taxes. The standoff with the Soviet Union in October 1962, a fight that came to be known as the Cuban Missile Crisis, ended without war, which gave the market license to rise again.
On February 9, 1966, the Dow hit 995.15 and stopped rising. Investors went from planning Dow 1,000 celebrations to worrying that inflation was about to creep up and that the Vietnam War would drag on.
After the February 1966 record, the Dow fell 37 percent over about four years. It bottomed out on May 26, 1970, in the middle of a recession, at 631.16.
--RECORD BREAKER: Nov. 10, 1972. The Dow breaks the record that had stood since 1966, closing at 995.26.
--RISE CONTINUES: It keeps rising for two months, gains 6 percent and peaks at 1,051.70 on Jan. 11, 1973.

Syria rebel: Sunni jihadists after Shiite hostages
Despite condemning the regime's use of heavy weapons against civilians and providing some humanitarian aid to the rebels, Western powers have steered clear of any direct intervention into the 18-month old conflict that activists say has claimed more than 20,000 lives.
It is also doubtful that the United States, already reeling from a series of attacks on its embassies in the Middle East prompted by an anti-Islam film, would be looking to get involved in a hostage exchange.
Already the Syrian conflict has had a number of spillover effects in Lebanon, including riots and gun battles between supporters and opponents of Assad's regime, and now the wave of kidnappings.
In contrast to its normally aggressive response to most provocations, however, Hezbollah, which is also deeply involved in Lebanon's tortuous politics, has tried to downplay the Syrian hostage-taking.
Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah appealed for calm in the wake of the 11 men's capture and uncharacteristically deferred to the Lebanese government to handle negotiations for their release. He also denied any involvement in the retaliatory kidnappings by Shiite clans.
According to Abu Ibrahim, however, extremist Sunni groups appear to be going in the opposite direction.
While the majority of Syria's rebels are Sunni and many are religious, most say they disagree with the extreme approach adopted by Sunni jihadists that often involves singling out Syria's many minorities and the imposition of Islamic law.
"We don't like the Salafis or extremists," said Abu Ibrahim, adding that he had little dealings with them, but had yet to come into direct conflict.
"They are only playing a small role in the revolution," he said, estimating that they made up less than 10 percent of the fighters.

Sunderland striker Steven Fletcher is confident staying up after their draw at Cardiff City.
Fletcher reckons he can make it third time lucky by beating the top-flight drop.
The Scotland striker, who has been relegated with Burnley and Wolves, said: "Compared to the other two I've been in, this is probably the tightest one.
"At Burnley I think we were dead and buried by this time.
"This time round we've still got a massive chance.
"We've got a lot of good games coming up so we're all looking forward to that.
"Our home form's been good, we've beaten Manchester City and a few other teams, so we've just got to keep it going."

Zippers and "Bo-flakes" deck the White House
Wednesday - 11/28/2012, 3:50pm EST
By NANCY BENAC
Associated Press
WASHINGTON (AP) - "Bo-flakes" featuring the first dog and ornaments fashioned from zippers are among the new twists on traditional favorites at the White House this Christmas season.
First lady Michelle Obama unveiled this year's decorations before an appreciative crowd of military families Wednesday, then spent some time doing holiday crafts with military kids.
The theme for this year's decorations is "Joy to All," but first dog Bo seems to steals the show.
There are 40 "Bo-flake" ornaments throughout the White House that feature cutout images of the dog.
There's a life-size replica of the dog, with a string of lights in his mouth, in the East Garden Room.
And there's an outsized statue of the Portuguese water dog next to the 300-pound gingerbread house in the State Dining Room.
Mrs. Obama said that reflects Bo's high standing at the White House.
"He's almost as big as the house," she declared. "He is such a huge personality."
Visitors also will get a Bo bookmark that sends them on a scavenger hunt for "Bo-ornaments" stashed in eight rooms.
Bo himself made an appearance during Wednesday's festivities, sporting a jingle bell collar, and was quickly swarmed by young guests.
This year's decorations include lots of handmade items that could easily be done at home, including patriotic wreaths and ornaments wrapped in red, white and blue yarn to fit with Mrs. Obama's emphasis on supporting military families.
The gargantuan gingerbread house, however, is not a feat for amateurs to attempt: It contains more than 175 pounds of gingerbread and modified gingerbread and more than 50 pounds of chocolate. Pastry chef Bill Yosses mixed up a combination of wheat, rye and white-flour gingerbread that mimics the color of the sandstone house prior to 1798, when the house was first painted white.
More than 90,000 visitors are expected to pass through the White House this holiday season.
Executive chef Cristeta Comerford said she's drawing on the recipes in Mrs. Obama's gardening book, "American Grown," as she prepares food for all the guests. The treats will include sweet potato quick bread, green beans with almonds and a winter salad featuring fennel.
The massive decorating job _ there are 54 live Christmas trees in the White House _ comes together in just five days, with the help of 85 volunteers from around the country. This year's volunteers included Nellie Funk, a military wife from Carlisle, Pa., who was working beside retired homicide detective Tracy Jacobson from Southern California.
Asked which job was more fun _ detective or decorator _ Jacobson deadpanned: "This has been much more fun."

The chowk outside Saifee Mahal in Malabar Hill, has been renamed as late Dr Syedna Mohammed Burhanuddin Chowk by the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC). The late Syedna had passed away on January 17 due to a cardiac arrest.
The renaming of the chowk was done on July 29, when non-Bohra Muslims celebrated Eid to mark the end of the holy month of Ramzaan.
Parag Masurkar, assistant municipal commissioner of D-ward (Malabar Hill), where the chowk has come up, said that the inauguration happened after the proposal was cleared by various committees.
The proposal for the naming of the chowk was mooted by area member of legislative assembly Mangal Prabhat Lodha. He said that the renaming was suggested because the late leader lived in the area and also because he had taken up several philanthropic activities.
Lodha said: "I had moved the proposal because, firstly, the late Syedna lived there all his life and I felt there should be a chowk in his name. The late leader of the community had built the Saifee Hospital that provides affordable treatment to people. He has also undertaken projects to uplift the living condition of the poor and I see no point of controversy in this. If someone has any issue, it will be unfortunate."
Members of the Dawoodi Bohra community have welcomed the initiative of the corporation. Abdul Kadir, a resident of Andheri, said: "For us, the bungalow is a sacred place as the Syedna resided there. Having a chowk outside the bungalow named after the late Syedna will surely help citizens of other communities to know where the spiritual leader of the business community resided."

Doody's Review ServiceReviewer: Steven T. Herron, MD (Assurance Health and Wellness)
Description: Based on his own clinical experience and insight, Dr. Simon attempts to explain the fine line that separates people who commit unspeakable acts from those able to control their impulses.
Purpose: This is an update of the original book published in 1996 and is meant to provide a follow-up on many of the cases discussed in that edition and to offer additional insights Dr. Simon obtained during the last decade of his work.
Audience: While interesting for individuals familiar with mental health issues and/or the criminal justice system, this book is geared more for those in the community who have an interest in the darker side of human behavior.
Features: Both editions contain 12 chapters, though this update has been rearranged and includes a new foreword and preface. In addition, two chapters have been significantly restructured (one involving "Messianic Madness" in which religious cults are addressed). The original text is longer (324 pages, compared to this edition's 295 pages), though this is more likely due to the type font than to the deletion of information. Each book ends with a bibliography, separated by chapter for easier reference.
Assessment: Reading this update, I was reminded of the reason I originally found the book so appealing (though admittedly, the previous edition was absorbed about 10 years ago). The update completes the story, so to speak, on many of the individual cases discussed in the original version, and some of the dates have been removed to make the updated version seem more timely and fresh. While there is little in the way of astonishingly new information, the care and effort taken in compiling this new version is obvious, and it is an enjoyable, insightful, and, at times, disturbing look into an aspect of human behavior that is both fascinating and frightening to behold.

Whenever I think about food moments, my mind goes back to this scene from the movie Chocolat, where Vianne (Juliette Binoche) literally stirs magic into a cup when she sprinkles what looks like chilli powder into steaming hot chocolate and offers it to her landlady Armande played by Judi Dench). Hot chocolate never looked more sinful and more appealing than in that one scene. We asked city chefs to share their favourite food moments in film and recipes. Here's what they had to say.
Chef Gautam Mehrishi, executive chef at Sun N Sand hotel
My favourite food moment Is a scene from My Dinner with Andre. In New York City, an actor/playwright agrees to have dinner with a theater director who he has not seen, literally, for years. He is afraid of meeting with him because of the stories that he has heard about the director sobbing on a sidewalk and talking with trees. Obviously, something terrible had happened to him. He meets him at an expensive restaurant (he is given a coat and necktie to wear, since he is not dressed appropriately) and waits at the bar for his old friend to arrive. Once Andre arrives, he hugs Wally, who feels that he is really in the theater now. The staff at the restaurant know Andre well and seat the two immediately at a table that provides a fair amount of privacy. Wally needs help understanding the menu, and Andre, with a sense of humor, helps him with the French cuisine. They both order quail. The most touching aspect of this scene is how food becomes a factor for two people to bond after so many years and the very fact that one person does not have any knowledge of French food, is not appropriately dressed still the other guy brings in humour and food becomes the soothing factor like always in any situation in life.
Quail with Grape Sauce, Turnips, and Radishes
8 sprigs sage
8 quail, bone in, rinsed and patted dry, neck bones and wing tips removed
1 tbsp cracked black pepper
1 bunch red radishes (6 to 8), greens discarded
2 bunches baby turnips with greens (12 to 16): turnips trimmed and peeled, and greens trimmed, stemmed, and reserved.
2 tbsp olive oil
6 tbsp butter
2 large shallots, peeled and cut and quartered
1 1/2 cups chicken stock
2 cups seedless green grapes: 1 1?2 cups halved and 1?2 cup sliced
3 tbsp cognac
3 tbsp crème fraîche
Salt and freshly ground white pepper
Center a rack in the oven and preheat it to 350°F. Stuff one sprig of sage in each quail, tie the legs together with butcher's twine, and tie the wings together with more twine so they're tight against the body. Season with cracked black pepper and salt. Using a sharp knife, thinly shave two radishes and two turnips for garnish. Halve or quarter the remaining radishes and turnips into bite-size pieces and set aside. Heat the oil and 1 tbsp butter in a heavy, ovenproof sauté pan over moderate heat until foam subsides, then brown the quail on all sides, while basting with liquid from the pan, 10 to 12 minutes total. Transfer the quail to a large plate. Drain all but two tbsp fat from the pan, then add the shallots and continue cooking, stirring and scraping up brown bits, for two minutes. Return the quail and any juices from the plate to the pan. Place breast-sides up, and roast in oven until just cooked through (cut into an inner thigh; the meat will still be slightly pink), about 10 minutes.
While the quail is roasting, combine two tbsp butter, 1?2 cup chicken stock, and the chopped turnips in a sauté pan and bring to a simmer. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the turnips are tender and the liquid is reduced to a glaze (add spoonfuls of water if the liquid reduces before the turnips are cooked), about 5 minutes. Season to taste with salt and white pepper, transfer the turnips to a plate, and repeat the process with the chopped radishes, another 2 T butter, and another 1?2 cup stock. Transfer radishes to the plate. Add remaining 1 T butter to the pan with the reserved turnip greens, and toss until wilted. Return the turnips and radishes to the pan and toss, adjusting seasoning if needed, and keep warm.
Transfer the quail to a platter, remove twine, and cover loosely with foil. Add the halved grapes and cognac to the quail pan. Place the pan over medium heat and lightly simmer for three minutes. Add the remaining 1?2 cup chicken stock, and boil until the liquid is reduced by half. Stir in the crème fraîche and simmer until slightly thickened for three to four minutes. Puree the mix with a hand blender, then strain through a fine-meshed sieve into a sauceboat. Place the quail on a bed of the sautéed vegetables and garnish with the shaved radishes, turnips, and sliced grapes. Serve the sauce on the side.
Chef Ranveer Brar, senior executive chef Novotel Mumbai
My favorite food moment is from the movie No Reservations where towards the last scene both top chefs (Aaron Eckhart and Catherine Zeta-Jones) after cooking the most complicated dishes put together a blueberry pancake stack that gets drizzled with loads of sugar and ultimately brings cheers and smiles that we were looking for in the whole movie. It symbolises to me that food is meant to touch people, and when made with love, it will surely touch people even (and usually) in the simplest of forms.
155 gms all-purpose flour
10 gms baking powder
5 gms white sugar
235 ml milk
7 gms butter, melted
80 gms frozen blueberries, thawed
For garnish and plating
1 tbsp Whipped cream
Icing sugar for dusting
4-5 nos assorted berries
1 tsp blueberry compote
1. In a large bowl, sift together flour, salt, baking powder and sugar. In a small bowl, beat together eggs. Heat a lightly oiled griddle or frying pan over medium high heat. Pour or scoop the batter onto the griddle. Stir milk and egg into flour mixture. Mix in the butter and fold in the blueberries. Set aside for one hour, using approximately 1/4 cup for each pancake. Brown on both sides and serve hot.
Savio Fernandes, Chef De Partie, JW Marriott Mumbai
The food moment that I find truly inspirational is when Remi creates a simple dish like the Ratatouille instead of going for something complex. It's a film that I inspires you to think differently, and that's why I watch it once in three months.
100 gms brinjal
100 gms zucchini
100 gms red bell pepper
100 gms green bell pepper
100 gms onion
75 ml olive oil
500 gms tomatoes
50 gms onion
50 gms finely chopped carrot, celery and leek
4 nos bay leaf
10 gms peppercorns
5 gms basil
50 ml olive oil
10 flakes garlic
½ tsp sugar
Salt to taste
500 gms Puff pastry
Dice the vegetables, heat the oil till it sizzles and put in the vegetables, toss it over a hot flame for one minute only, and remove it on to a tray to cool. For the sauce, heat the oil add in the finely chopped carrots, onions, leeks and celery. Add in the chopped tomatoes and allow it to cool for one hour. Cool it and puree the cooked tomatoes. Heat the oil and add in the basil leaves, pepper corn, bay leaf and chopped garlic, sauté this for a while. Add in the tomato puree and cook the sauce till it is quite dry, season with salt and pepper. Toss in the vegetables and switch off the heat. Cool down the mixture. Line a tart mould with puff pastry and fill it with the veg mix. Bake it in an oven at 180°C for 30 mins till it is baked. Serve warm.
Ajay Chopra, executive chef; The Westin Mumbai Garden City
My favorite food moment is this scene from Kung Fu Panda. Po talks about dreaming about noodles, and what it signifies. While Po unenthusiastically put it down as "no big deal", Mr Ping believes it's a sign he will eventually take over the restaurant. Dreams remain dreams until they are realised. Something similar happened to me when my son came up to me and said, "Daddy I want to cook like you, will you teach me how to make food like Mr Ping tries to teach Po." Ping and Po share a very beautiful father and son relationship, something I can identify with. While the noodle dream is an important aspect in the plot, it's also something that we bond over in my family. Khow Suey is one of our favourite family dishes that we enjoy together. So, I am sharing that with you.
80 ml Oil
100 gms chopped onion
40 gms chopped garlic
8 gms turmeric powder
15 gms chilli paste
50 gms gram flour
4 leaves lemon grass
1000 ml coconut milk

Fried garlic
Fresh lemon juice
Chilli flakes, chilli oil

SALEM -- A Salem woman was found guilty Thursday of neglecting 16 horses on her property, while she was already on probation for attempted animal neglect.
Gabriel Elle Denison Buckner was arrested May 4, 2011, after Marion County Sheriff deputies investigated the report of diseased and emaciated horses on Skyline Drive SW, according to Jean Kunkle of the Marion County District Attorney's office.
At the time of her Marion County arrest, Kunkle said. Buckner was on probation for attempted animal neglect in the second degree in Deschutes County.
Thursday a Marion County jury found Buckner guilty on all counts. Her sentencing was scheduled for May 3.

The Rangers Win the Pennant!
Kinsler helps Texas to first World Series
Though we had to abandon our first Major League playoff team, the Tampa Bay Rays, you'll recall we eagerly adopted their conquerors, the Texas Rangers and their hot-hitting Jewish second baseman, Ian Kinsler. And this time, we were not let down: The Rangers defeated the New York Yankees in a six-game series that was, if anything, less close than it appeared—after all, to get the job done, Texas required neither its final home game nor the second start of its ace, Cliff Lee, who in eight career postseason starts has now gone 7-0 with a 1.26 ERA, 67 strikeouts, and seven walks. And Kinsler! Through the ten playoff games, he is hitting .342 with three home runs and nine RBI, the final of which drove in a crucial insurance run in game six.
In the National League, the Giants won the pennant (the Giants won the pennant); Game 1 is Wednesday night in San Francisco (Lee will face Giants ace Tim Lincecum, a match-up you won't want to miss). The Giants, of course, date back to upper Manhattan, where they were based when they won their previous championship with the aid of a pretty good centerfielder. Texas, on the other hand, had gone 50 years as a franchise (it began as the second iteration of the Washington Senators) without a single World Series appearance, much less victory. The Giants are likeable, but there can be only one winner, and Tablet Magazine can have only one team. Go Rangers!
