Kisan Mahasabha describes Delhi airport privatisation as a "lose, lose" initiative
With the Comptroller and Auditor General's report on "Implementation of public- private partnership at Indira Gandhi International Airport, Delhi" pointing to valuation of the commercial rights of land at just Rs.24,000 crore when the potential earning capacity was Rs.1,63,557 crore, the Kisan Mahasangh, which has been spearheading the agitation by farmers whose land was acquired for the airport, has described the privatisation as a "lose, lose" initiative.
Mahasangh co-convener Colonel Devinder Sehrawat said it was not only the farmers who had lost out in the bargain as their lands were acquired cheap but then handed over at a pittance to the airport operator, the passengers and even commuters to the airport have been spending extra due to the high airport development fee and the charges imposed on taxi operators by the airport authorities.
"The passengers have to pay airport development fees approved by the Ministry of Civil Aviation in February 2009, in contravention of the provisions of Article 13.1 of Operation Management and Development Agreement, OMDA as later confirmed by Delhi High Court. This decision to levy the development fee after the effective date has vitiated the sanctity of the bidding process," he said.
Noting that this development fee has pushed up the flying costs of the airlines and consequently the air fares, Mr. Sehrawat said the CAG report has exposed the whole gamut of operations which the Mahasangh had been alleging all this while.
He said the CAG has now criticised the levy of development fee on passengers using the Delhi airport and observed that the Civil Aviation Ministry had violated the bid conditions to benefit Delhi International Airport Limited by over Rs. 3,415 crore through the move.
Expensive travel
He said as per the CAG report this has significantly pushed up the air fares of flights operating to and out of Delhi. While for domestic passengers the hike has been between Rs. 220 to Rs. 520, for the international passengers it is even steeper at between Rs. 490 and Rs. 1,200.
Moreover, Mr. Sehrawat said all the passengers or commuters availing of radio taxis at the airport are also being forced to shell out Rs. 80 extra per trip as the airport authorities have imposed a charge amount of like amount for these.
Apart from this the farmer leader said all the food and beverage services at the airport have also become very expensive in the recent past and all this has put a lot of strain on the passengers and others visiting the Delhi airport.
Mr. Sehrawat said the farmers, whose land was acquired for as little as Rs. 4 per square yard in South West Delhi way back in 1955 for undertaking planned development, now want higher compensation as they want to partake in the profits accruing from its transfer by the Government.
The Mahasangh represents farmers of Mahipalpur, Nangal Dewat and Rangpuri villages near the airport who have been fighting legal battles for enhanced compensation for decades now.
"Hike for domestic passengers: Rs.220 to 520; for international passengers: Rs.490 and 1,200" "Levying development fee after the effective date vitiated the sanctity of the bidding process"
"Hike for domestic passengers: Rs.220 to 520; for international passengers: Rs.490 and 1,200"

'WWE Oscars': 'Slammys' to be given out in Corpus Christi tonight
Awards go to superstar, match, diva of year from the American Bank Center
CORPUS CHRISTI - World Wrestling Entertainment fans in Corpus Christi should expect the unexpected on Monday night, said professional wrestler and actor Ted DiBiase.
Comedian and radio talk show host Dennis Miller will host World Wrestling Entertainment's Slammy awards during Monday Night Raw event.
Miller, former cast member of "Saturday Night Live," is a commentator on Fox's news channel's "The O'Reilly Factor" on a segment called "Miller Time."
The comedian also serves as the National Spokesperson for USA Cares, a Kentucky-based nonprofit organization that provides financial assistance to military families in need.
Created by the Academy of Wrestling Arts and Sciences in 1986, the Slammy Awards are considered to be WWE's version of the Oscars. The award categories include superstar, match and diva of the year.
The special three-hour show will begin at 7 p.m. at the American Bank Center arena and will air on USA Network.
At least 7,000 wrestling fans are expected to fill the arena to see superstars including John Cena, Randy Orton, Chris Jericho, Ted DiBiase and The Big Show representing all three brands — Raw, Smackdown and ECW.
Ted DiBiase, a third-generation wrestler, said he loves being in the ring.
"I love interacting with the crowd and being able to see their reaction," DiBiase said. "Being in front of thousands of people is my drug."
DiBiase, who also stars in the movie "The Marine 2" (on DVD Dec. 29) is part of the tag team "The Legacy," which includes Randy Orton and Cody Rhodes.
"This is live entertainment, there are no retakes and no second chances," DiBiase said. "There will be a little bit of everything; we have giants, midgets and everything in between."
WWE superstars tour 51 weeks a year nationally and internationally.
The stars have visited troops in Iraq. On Dec. 19 the TV special "Tribute to the Troops" will air at 9 p.m. on NBC.
"WWE is one of the best forms of sports entertainment in the planet," DiBiase said. "The reaction of the crowd is very rewarding. Corpus Christi has always been a great place to us and we like to go all out.
"We love to give our fans the best we've got."

ROTO VISIONARY BLOG - September 2
Mr. Freeze
Your draft day is set. You have done all your studying. You have mocked your pick about a thousand times. You have listened to hundreds of experts either on the radio or on Twitter and you are finally ready to make your pick.
The draft finally gets there and it's your turn to pick. After weeks of preparation and convincing yourself that you need a Wide Receiver early on, you blurt out the name "Drew Brees." The minute you say his name, you wish you can take it back as you know you have just blown your draft. What happened?
Please CLICK HERE to view Scout Fantasy's Preseason PRO picks from Ian Ritchie, the former No. 1 Fantasy Football player in the world!
You froze. You got tight. You panicked. It's as simple as that. You did not trust yourself to make the right pick, since you know that QBs can be taken later in the draft but you wanted to make sure you got a good one. And while you did get a good one, the guy right after you picked Julio Jones and then got Tony Romo about four rounds later as his starting QB while you got Doug Baldwin and/or Mike Wallace as your third wide receiver.
George Santayana once wrote, "Those who do not learn from the past are condemned to repeat it." We, as Fantasy owners, need to learn from our mistakes and keep improving. We need to change our philosophies. We need to try multiple leagues and take different players. The only way to win is to get with the times.
I often joke about many people being Fantasy Brontosauruses and still using Commodore 64 computers to draft. Things change in Fantasy Football, just like they do in real football. Have you noticed how the NFL has devalued Running Backs? It's the same reason why Fantasy owners have done the same to RBs in the last year or two.
The draft is now over and you made your picks. Perhaps you will win your league, but more often than not you will lose. Don't get down. Don't get upset. Figure out what you did wrong at your draft and make a conscious effort not to do those same things again. Remember, there's always next year!

Babe Ruth Birthplace Museum and Sports Legends Museum at Camden Yards
A long fly ball from Oriole Park could hit the row house where, on February 6, 1895, Babe Ruth entered the world and sent chills down the spines of pitchers and outfielders across the country. After the legend earned more than 700 home runs and 2,200 RBIs, his career ended and his life faded, leaving his birthplace to fall into disrepair. In the late 1960s, a campaign restored both it and the adjoining structures to create the Babe Ruth Birthplace Museum. Babe's widow, daughters, and sister collaborated with the museum founders to create exhibits commemorating the record breaker's life and career, filling glass cases with balls and jerseys and restoring his bedroom to how it would have looked the year that the stork pitched the little Bambino through the window.
Originally, this museum also explored the history of the Baltimore Orioles—Ruth's first professional team—and hosted the Baltimore Colts' archives. Its quickly growing collection of artifacts, however, soon led to the need for a larger location. In 2005, the Babe Ruth Birthplace Museum retained those items relating to its titular legend while the rest found a new home in the Sports Legends Museum. This museum occupies the basement and first floor of the historic Camden Station, sprawling throughout 22,000 square feet with exhibits that delve into subjects such as the history of baseball in Maryland and collegiate ball.
97% of 38 customers recommend
"The Museum was a lot of fun, especially seeing the memorabilia from the Orioles and Ravens - after winning seasons, always a great experience."

"We loved the Sports Legends Museum - the kids especially loved the locker room where they could dress up in all the uniforms. The Babe Ruth birthplace was worth seeing, but I am glad I got it as a combo ticket with the museum - not sure it would be worth paying full price for on its own. "
"It was a very nice experience, I love the baseballs on the ground that lead you from Camden Yards to the museum."

Hortus Botanicus - Botanic Gardens, Amsterdam
21 Reviews
21 Reviews
We visited the botanical gardens one sunny day in early January. It wasn't part of our plan for the day, but it was close by after we'd been at the Hermitage Amsterdam.
It was a good decision. We saw the oldest potted plant in the world - 300 years old. We saw a recently discovered Australian pine only known from fossils before. We also saw at least one plant which is extinct in the wild.
The butterfly house was also a highlight.
Of course its not the best time to visit by a long way, so I can imagine it is wonderful in the summer.
The gardens date from 1638, and are one of the oldest in the world. A great way to spend an hour or two. Not expensive either, by Amsterdam standards - €8.50 per adult.
Definitely one of the city's highlights as far as I'm concerned.
The "hortus" is one of the oldest botanical gardens in Europe, dating back to 1638 when Dutch sailors brought back plant and seed specimens from their voyages. In hothouses, rare plants and trees from all over the world can be seen.
The influence of this botanical gardens can not be underestimated, as a single coffee plant from the "hortus" was the base for the entire coffee agriculture Central and America; the introduction of oil palms to South East Asia resulted from seeds of the Hortus Botanicus and is to this day one of the most important ressources of the region.
In 1638 the Amsterdam City Counsil founded a medicinal herb garden. Those herbs were well needed as a medicine to counter the plague epidemic. The Hortus was the training location for doctors and pharmacists to prepare prescriptions.
In the 17th and 18th centuries the VOC ships brought back exotic plants and herbs and soon the Hortus expanded and became a botanical garden in 1682.
In 2003 the Hortus was renovated and the orangery is one of the most beautiful Amsterdam outdoor cafés.
Visiting hours:
Daily: 10AM - 5PM
Admission: Euro 7.50
A quiet and relaxing place to visit is the Botanical Gardens located in the southern part of the city centre.There are more than 6000 plants here including a 2000 year old Cactus and a 300 year old Eastern Cape Giant Cycad.The plants are located in the outside gardens and several warm glass houses with walkways to climb up to the ceilings and get great view of the many species of plants kept here.
One of the oldest Botanical Gardens in the World,it was established in 1638 by the city municipality as Hortus Medicus,a herb garden with medicine plants for Amsterdam Doctors and Pharmacists.The reasons for establishing this were very serious:at that time the cities of Leiden and Utrecht experienced the plague epidemic(1634-1637) with thousands of victims.Additionally,several monasteries moved out of the quickly growing city as there was not enough space to plant herbs.There is a cafe and gift shop on the premises and maps of gardens provided on entry.Open:9am-5pm(Summer),9am-4pm(Winter)Entry is 6 Euros.
The garden is established in 1638 as a small herb garden for pharmacists of Amsterdam. Today it has one of the largest botanical collections in the world. The Hortus Botanicus is located at its present location since 1682.
The ships of the VOC (Verenigde Oostindische Compagnie = East India Company) brought many useful tropical plants. At the beginning of 1700 Hortus was the first garden outside Arabia where you could find coffee plants.
In the Hortus you can find abt. 8,000 different species of tropical, subtropical and desert plants.
The Hortus is a "living museum" displaying thousands of different species of plants to be found in both the gardens and greenhouses. The garden has lots of different scenes to offer, such as a rock-garden, a pond, a herb garden,a rosarium and many monumental trees.
The Hortus Botanicus Amsterdam is one of the oldest botanical gardens in the world. The garden was established by the Amsterdam city authority in 1638 as a "Hortus Medicus", a herb garden for the physicians and pharmacists of Amsterdam.

The Hortus Botanicus of Ámsterdam from 1638 is one of the oldest botanical gardens in the World. Today, it is a garden of delight in the centre of the city. There are over 4.000 plant species in the garden. The greenhouses acomódate plants from six different climates.
El Hortus Botanicus de Ámsterdam que data desde 1638 es uno de los más antiguos jardines botánicos del mundo. Hoy en día, es un jardín de delicias en el centro de la ciudad. Hay más de 4.000 especies de plantas en el jardín. Los invernaderos tienen plantas de seis diferentes climas.
The Botanic garden of Amsterdam was founded in 1682 and it is one of the oldest in existence. It was originally a medicinal herb garden founded by the city council. Herbs then played a major part in the basis of medicines and Amsterdam had just had a plaque epidemic. Doctors and pharmacists trained in the preparation of medicines at the Hortus. Then in the 17th and 18th century the VOC (the Dutch East India Company) brought not only herbs and spoices to the Hortus but exotic plants. Some of them are still in the Hortus 300 years later, for example the Eastern Cape giant cycad.
The entrance gates were built in 1715 and this is one of the oldest parts of the Hortus. from 1896 to 1918 Professor Hugo de Vries was director of the Hortus and most of the other buildings date from this time. Hugo de Vries was a famous genetics professor, he lived opposite the Hortusand there is also a "Hugo de Vries" gate. Thhis was moved a little so that the professor could enter the gardens opposite his home and not have to walk around the corner. His house has a plaque on it but is a private building.
The Hortus is not large - it covers only 1,2 hectare but it has a large variety of plants. The garden and greenhouses represent 7 differnt climates. Hortus specialises in a number of palnt groups - the cycads, South African palnts, conservatory plants and carnivorous plants.
It is the first botanic garden in Europe and it is worth it if you like plants. There is a big cristal house with a real jungle inside. Then another cristal housde with butterflies that fly around you! great!
If you come to Amsterdam in the middle of the Winter like i did - it can be freezing weather - I could idea is to go to a local Bar that serves good "erwtensoep" - which is the Hot Pea Soup - great on a very cold day - and i don't know if it is usual but mine came with spicy sausage also.
Then instead of having a cold Heineken - have a hot coffee - and one or two of local Dutch Gin "Genever" - this will make you feel very nice and warm inside and bring a smile to your face.
Then take a Metro to the Hortus Botanicus (Botanical Gardens) where you can wander round in the heat in the nice Hot Glasshouses
This is what i did
Ps - I think "Hot Waffles" are also served in many places in Amsterdam - can also be nice on a cold day - if you like Waffles (I don't) - however i think you can get them covered in chocolate and everything
As a person who is very fond of planting, Hortus was the most important location for me when I was planning my trip. It is one of the oldest botanical gardens in the world. So I was expecting too much after I read many things about this place and after I saw many flowers all over Amsterdam. But unfortunately we were in February and Amsterdam was too cold. So the pools were frozen and outdoor plants were sleeping when I was visiting Hortus. Then I realized that Hortus has not only an outdoor garden, but also many greenhouses.
Here comes a warning: If it is cold outside, your camera can be foggy when you enter a greenhouse. There is a huge green house at your right after the main entrance. Its doors are strictly closed, because there are many tropical plants in there. The weather inside reminded me hammams of Turkey, because the plants need humidity, too. You can climb some stairs and wander around on a catwalk. This is a nice way to see the huge trees, but do not miss the small plants under them. This greenhouse is divided three different parts inside. They all have different temperature and humidity values. I've seen many plants that I've never seen before.
There is another greenhouse with many butterflies. They were flying around and feeding themselves from the plates full of orange slices. Also there are many cocoons hanging in a windowed partition.
I expected much from the shop of Hortus. I'd like to have seeds some of these amazing plants.
Entrance fee is 6 euro, but free with Iamsterdam card.
Again I did not go into the botanical gardens as they are fairly small in comparison to botanical gardens I have visited in other countries. My dutch friend advised me that a lot of locals buy a yearly pass & on sunny days spend their time in there with a book as many apartments have no access to garden space.
The gardens were established in 1638nas a herb garden for the city's doctors. It would be an interesting place to visit if you are interested in botany. There is also a butterfly house inside.
Open Mon – Fri 9am – 5pm & Sat / Sun 11am – 5pm
Adult Euro 6 Child Euro 3 Guided tours Euro 1 extra
We enjoyed the bontanical gardens. They were beautiful and very serene. They had some interesting plants that I'd never heard of before and a butterfly house. All in all, a nice respite from what can otherwise be a hectic day of sightseeing.
Small botanical gardens (containing over 6000 plants!) at the corner of Plantage Middenlaan and Plantage Paarklaan, and another place I will visit on my next trip here!

Confirmed: Hugh Jackman's Wolverine to appear in next 'X-Men' movie
Director Bryan Singer announces that Jackman has joined the cast for 'X-Men: Days Of Future Past'Buy DVD and Blu-ray
from Amazon UK
Hugh Jackman's Wolverine is to feature in the next X-Men film. I would officially like to welcome @realhughjackman to the cast of #Xmen Days of Future Past. Very excited!More to come...
Last month (November 2012), it was reported that Jackman was in negotiations to make an appearance in the upcoming sequel, titled X Men: Days Of Future Past. Now director Bryan Singer has confirmed Jackman's role on Twitter, posting:
Jackman has already made five appearances as Wolverine in X-Men films, including an uncredited cameo in last year's X-Men: First Class. His own spin-off movie, simply titled The Wolverine, is due for release next July (2013).
Meanwhile, X-Men: Days Of Future Past is set to begin shooting early next year (2013). Last month (November 2012), Singer made another casting announcement on Twitter, revealing that the film has roles for X-Men veterans Patrick Stewart and Ian McKellen - as well as current stars James McAvoy and Michael Fassbender.
However, Patrick Stewart has since claimed that "Bryan let the cat out of the bag on Twitter". Speaking earlier this month (December 2012), he insisted: "I know nothing about this project. [But] I'm hoping that might change in the future."

This 2014 garden season I am working to bring hardscape color to my yard. It's very difficult bringing color to a desert landscape. Texture is very easy, but the selection of plants are often similar in color shade. I had a bunch of old cinderblocks just sitting on the side of my house and it struck me that I could create an adorable planter box, bright in color by turning them into legos.
All photos belong to me.
You will need the following
1. Cinder Block or more depending how many you want to make
spray paint
Cement or Plaster
Resin casting mold coaster style. I purchased mine at Hobby Lobby, but they also sell them at Michaels.
Paint the cinderblock and mold 6 cement or casting plaster coasters
Attach the coasters to the cinder blocks using cement or Gorilla Glue
Fill with soil and plantIf you live in an area with a lot of rain and snow I suggest making the pegs out of cement. Since our weather doesn't include much rain I got away with using pottery plaster. It dries very hard and holds up in our sun about the same as resin. Everything eventually gets sand blasted here due to the wind, but we are used to giving painted items touch up.
I began with purchasing a mold that is usually used to make resin coasters. It is available at Hobby Lobby or Michael's. I then created 8 pegs per block and used Gorilla Glue to adhere them to the cinderblocks. The pottery plaster cost me 3 dollars, the mold was 2.50. The paint I used was indoor/outdoor Krylon. Hobby Lobby had a 50% off sale last week on all Krylon products. I used a full can of spray on each block to achieve the rich color.
Gorilla Glue will adhere just about anything and the bond is permanent. It is activated with a little water so you just have to sponge both the cinderblock and the peg before adding the glue. If it foams out around the base of the peg don't worry. It is easily hidden with the paint.Once everything was dry I gave it a last spray coat to seal it all together and put it in the sun to cure for a day.I loosely arranged them in the yard and filled the holes with sandy soil. I then planted cactus. They are in bloom now. It will take a while for them to settle in and start to grow, but they should fill out nicely by next season.

Aza Fran: Check out the wine cellar
We heard about this place from Tripadvisor and it certainly deserved its #1 rating.
It has a wonderful atmosphere with a romantic Old World charm and the food was outstanding.
Little warm savoury rolls are served first . I had a delicious crisp phyllo crusted steak. We selected a 2006 Malbec from the cellar at a mere 60 pesos. It was smooth and flavourful...
These are the evenings that keep me wanting to try new restaurants.

Parilla Facundo Restaurant: Great for Steak!
Opposite the Hotel Internacional, on Sarimento 641, my friend and I dined at this restaurant. We had a wonderful steak meal with French fries and vegetables. This was accompanied with various condiments including bread, empananas, salsas etc and all drank down with Malbec wine, a highly recommended Argentine wine. I highly recommend this restaurant and it cost us 60 ARP (November 2007) each for the full meal including wine and soft drinks. You can sit outside as well as inside for your meal.
Estancia La Florencia: Argentine Steak Parrilla Restaurant
One of the reasons we travelled to Mendoza was to eat lots of steak. Near our hotel we found this little restaurant and noticed that at meal times it was always packed out so we thought we would try it out.
Favorite Dish: I ordered the Bife Chorizo steak which comes in two sizes 500 grams and 250 grams. When I ordered the 500 gram steak the waiter thought he should advise that I might find it more manageable to have the 250 gram steak. Christian said that if I got the 250 I might end up eating his which made the waiter laugh! I ended up eating every bite of my 500 gram steak and loved it!

Vina Santa Julia at Bodega Familia Zuccardi: What an Eclectic Mix of Tastes!
As part of the wine tours we took in the Mendoza wine region, we asked our tour guide to recommend one day that would experience a casual lunch with a personal touch and another day that would be more of an upscale traditional wine pairing meal.
This event was definitely the latter. As one of the more pricey meals we had, it was well worth it! And when I say pricey, it was still only $45 USD that included a 5 course lunch with a vineyard wine selection served at each course! Definitely worth it :-)
Entering the country style restaurant, we were greeted with a glass of wine prior to getting seated for lunch. We lounged in a cozy, living room style foyer and then headed into the dining room that had greenhouse style architecture and a 270 degree view of the beautiful property.
Every detail was attended to at lunch - the staff friendly and courteous, menus in English and Spanish and option for other pre-fixe menus. While my friend and I dined on the wine pairing menu, our guide and driver indulged in the barbeque taste platter, with mountains of various meats served to him. Quite another divine looking option!
Favorite Dish: I won't describe every dish in detail, though you can see from the photos that chef Matias Aldasoro has a zest for creativity in combining flavors and presenting his masterpeices.
The unique and daring style of passion can especially be seen in the main course, which was comprised of "pork loin medallions with aloe vera veil atop a spiced brioche, vanilla sweetened pear, Malamado Malbec reduction and chlorophyl Crunch".
Not only is that really is the description, but a very accurate one at that. And quite tasty. I looked at the words on the menu I could barely pronounce and wondered what might be coming out of the kitchen momentarily. To my delightful surprise, the combination of these elements was jsut right. The aloe vera provided a strange consistency to the course, but a cleansing one at that and it worked very well to fuse the salty taste of the meat with the sweetness of the pear. The healthy green crunch was prepared like rock candy as a brittle, sugary substance. Unexpectedly flavorful and appealing. All in all, a spectacular experience!
This course was served with the Zuccardi Serie A Bonarda. Enjoy!

LA FRANCESCA: great food!
From the other side of Facundo I saw another restaurant and I tried to eat here the day after. It was a great idea of me!
Francesca has the best food of Mendoza by far. A beautiful woman came to show us the wine list, she suggested one and we followed her suggestion while we were shocked by her beauty! I ordered for main dish an excellent roasted little lamb with potatoes but from what I've heard from my friends every dish was delicious. The wine was great too.
We paid each one around 50pesos(10euros). You could see the busy kitchen inside with the big pieces of meat everywhere. The service was good and fast… The restaurant has many tables inside but I didn't see one empty but we wanted to be outside in the sidewalk anyway, so it was ok!
FACUNDO: nice local restaurant
Facundo was one of my favorite restaurants in Mendoza. They have excelent service, a menu in english and helpful waiters.
The dishes are tasty, in fact every food I tasted here was great and the prices 20-35 pesos for the main dishes (4-7euros) or 5-7pesos(1euro) for the salads. They have tables outside in the sidewalk where the atmosphere is very nice in late afternoon when the sun is down. The restaurant was full of locals late at night but kind of empty in the afternoon.
FERUICCIO SOPPECSA: ice cream!
I liked the icecreams in Argentina since the first day I tried them in Buenos Aires. So, when I arrived in Mendoza I asked what is the best place for ice creams in town! They told me Feruiccio Soppecsa so I went there and I choosed one special big one.
It was expensive for argentinian standards, almost 15 pesos (3euros) but it was tasty… Of course, the surprise of the first argentinian ice cream wasn't there anymore. They have many others cheaper one that must be good also...
I saw many local come inside and take some kilos of icecream for their homes…
Mr.Dog: something quick and cheap
If you travel on tight budget these two small places will feed you with some hot dogs! Mr.Dog and Bennys Burger are facing each other at Garibaldi street at the corner with de La Reta and you can just get your hot dog or sandwich and take it away or sit outside at one of the tables and wash it down with a cold Quilmes beer. They stay open 24h away so they are a good option if you return back from a club…
Favorite Dish: Not so many options :)
- Budget Travel
Havana: Eating at Sarmiento street
Sarmiento street is full of cafes especially at the pedestrian side of it and you can stop there for a while if you want a fresh juice or a beer.
One of many cafes along Paseo Sarmiento is Havana. I stopped here for a sweet (9pesos) and a soft drink (5pesos) but you can also have orange juice (5pesos) and several tasty coffees. Most of the people choose one of the cafes here along their way to plaza Independencia.
Although some really good restaurants are at the other side, after plaza Independencia, one day I just stopped at another one (I cant remember the name) to have something here because I was hungry walking all day.
The service was good and my Milanesa de pollo napolitana costed me 20 pesos(4euros) but it wasn't so good like in other argentinian restaurants. I was pretending I'm from argentina now (it was 8 days after my arrival in the country) so I ordered a big beer (750ml!) that was a Quilmes one (they are everywhere) that costed 6,5 pesos (1,3euros)
Of course, my table was outside again where everyone is and you can watch the people passing by. As I said there are better areas to eat in Mendoza, choose one of the cafes for their drinks or sweets...
Francis Mallman 1884: The Best
In 2006 The Times of London listed 1884 as as the number 7 most desirable restaurant in the world and it is indeed one of the finest I have had the pleasure to dine with. A blend of fresh Argentine produce, meat and fish prepared with homage to Mallman's Patagonian heritage blended with his French training. By local standards it is expensive but by US and European standards it is a bargain. Most mains can be had for under $USD 20 add starters, desert and a bottle of Malbac and you might boost the check to $USD 35 per person, unless you go crazy on the wine :)
The service is on par with the food, excellent.
Favorite Dish: Everything was so good, the lamb, the salmon...we enjoyed every morsal.
Terruno at Club Tapiz: So good we ate there thrice
Not only is it the in-house restaurant at Club Tapiz and therefore wonderfully convenient for guests who have only to walk across the lawn, but Terruno has a reputation as one of the best restaurants in Mendoza. We ate there the first night because of the convenience - the decision to return for the second and third times was based entirely on the ambience and the quality of the food and wine - it was that good!
The restaurant has two dining rooms, both in the oldest part of the original house. Downstairs - with warm burgundy walls and dark wood - is an elegant and sophisticated space. Upstairs has a rustic feel, views over the vineyards and soft green painted wood-panelled walls. Both areas serve the same menu.
Booking is advisable- even for house guests. People drive out here from all around Mendoza and the restaurant is constantly mentioned in guides and travel articles.
Favorite Dish: To be perfectly honest, apart from a delicious dish of stuffed and roasted baby goat, a fabulous rack of baby Patagonian lamb, and some seriously good cheese, I can't give any more detail of what we ate. I can remember the appreciative silences as we all tucked in. The menu at Terruno is, as you would expect from a top-notch restaurant, full of seasonal and local specialities with touches of the best of European and Asian food styles all married together into a foodie's delight. Chef Max Casa is held to be one of Argentina's best and it shows. The wine list is extensive, the sommelier very knowledgeable and, if you're staying at the hotel, you can linger as long as you like over your meal knowing that all you have to do is walk a few yards to the lounge or back to your room at the end of a marvellous meal.

Cafe Aconcagua: Just the thing
Great restaurant experiences don't necessarily mean grand dining rooms or exquisite food. Despite the brilliantly clear skies and sunshine, it was freezing up at Puente del Inca and the promise of hot food and coffee was all we needed to turn our back on the view and scurry past the tables set outside into the shelter of the rather rickety Snack Bar Arconcagua. Makeshift on the outside and cluttered on the inside it might have been but a bowl of steaming meaty bean soup and fresh cooked empanadas were just the thing to warm us up, and the servings were generous enough to share with the gorgeous St Bernard dog who obviously was well used to those big brown eyes wooing the tourists into feeding him titbits.

After fulfilling a couple of exhibition commitments in South America this week, Novak Djokovic is looking forward to a break from tennis. "For two and a half weeks", he said on Monday night, "I will be in a very tropical, very beautiful place with no racket, just trying to recharge my batteries".
Djokovic has earned his rest after rounding off a classic season of tennis with an equally stunning victory over Roger Federer in the final of the Barclays ATP World Tour Finals. It was hard to say which was more remarkable: Djokovic's indomitable spirit, or the fact that Federer could play that well and still lose in straight sets - 7-6, 7-5.
If there is a lesson for Andy Murray in what we saw on Monday, it is that he cannot afford to sit back after his maiden grand slam victory in New York. The work he does in Florida this winter with Ivan Lendl will need to be precise and rigorous, because Djokovic is tougher to break down than a quadratic equation.
At various times this year, Djokovic has been eclipsed by all three of his major rivals. Rafael Nadal romped through the clay season, Federer won Wimbledon, and Murray finally broke his grand slam duck. But the Serbian is the man who has kept coming back, week after week, and daring someone to take him on. In 17 events, he has failed to reached the semi-finals just twice, and both times there were extenuating circumstances. He was uncomfortable on the blue clay of Madrid, which he felt was dangerously slippery, and by the time he reached the Paris Masters most of the leading players were clearly husbanding their energies for London.
Even if he only took home the one grand slam title - the first of the year in Melbourne - Djokovic's sheer consistency has seen him open up a lead of 2,655 rankings points over Federer in second place, and very nearly 5,000 over Murray in third. To put that into perspective, you collect 2,000 for winning a grand slam.
After the excitement of Murray's shining summer - which extended from the start of Wimbledon to the US Open final - his friends and supporters were soon predicting that he would have the No?1 spot in his sights by the spring of 2013. Without Fred Perry's 76-year jinx to weigh him down, they said, the tennis world will be at his mercy.
Yet the past two months have reminded us that one breakthrough does not in itself lead to more. Murray has "played some decent tennis" - in his own words - through his last four tournaments of the season. But he has lacked the moments of finesse and fearlessness that can turn a steady campaign into a scintillating one. Moments when you land two balls on the line in the same rally, as Djokovic did to break Federer in the penultimate game of Monday's final.
Such an outlandish level of tennis cannot be maintained throughout a season, and in 2012 we saw each of the "Big Four" have his moments. But if Murray and Federer produced the romantic storylines of the season, Djokovic was Mr Bankable. He will sleep well on his sunbed next week.

Hank III, Ray Wylie go gritty
Some good live country shows are on the calendar over the next few weeks, so check the dates and get ready for a fun evening out.
In the meantime, these new country releases are sure to find a home on the shelves of local fans.
"Long Gone Daddy" by Hank Williams III
I have said I won't comment on the hard-core heavy metal Hank Williams III puts out under a name too vulgar to print, and I won't. But it's still a pleasure to recommend his country music.
"Long Gone Daddy" is Shelton Hank Williams' new country set, and I must say it's a refreshing change from the shallow pop noise on mainstream country radio. It's raw and earthy, and it captures all the pure country essence his legendary grandfather brought to the music of the American common man.
The 10 songs on "Long Gone Daddy" — six new releases and four from previous Hank III albums — are not trying to prove anything beyond the deceptively simple common country themes of love gone wrong ("Long Gone Daddy"), drinkin' ain't curin' (Haggard's "Tonight the Bottle Let Me Down"), new doesn't always mean better ("This Ain't Montgomery") and you can't go wrong by hanging onto your individuality ("The Man They Want Me To Be").
The fiddle-and-steel, along with authentic "tic-tock" bass and a solid dance floor beat, modernizes the Hank Williams approach without changing it into something else, and as far as I'm concerned, that's always the best approach.
It's not Billboard chart material, but that just enhances the charm.
Good one.NEXT rating: B+
"The Grifter's Hymnal" by Ray Wylie Hubbard
Speaking of alternatives to modern mainstream country music, Ray Wylie Hubbard has been turning out some of the most insightful Texas-ized words and music there is anywhere for almost five decades, and he just keeps getting better.
Hubbard's new CD, "The Grifter's Hymnal," is not likely to even be nominated for any CMA awards, and I suspect he wouldn't have it any other way.
With a gritty blues-infused sound and plenty of Texas Proud attitude, "The Grifter's Hymnal" offers a dozen of the kind of songs only Hubbard can write and perform honestly and without flinching.
Oh the stories he tells, and the memories he makes, on songs like "Train Yard," "Count My Blessings" and "Mother Blues."NEXT rating: A-
"Bootleg Vol. IV: The Soul of Truth" By Johnny Cash
Johnny Cash retrospectives are going to keep coming out for years. But the Bootleg series will always be among the best of the bunch.
"Bootleg Vol. IV: The Soul of Truth" offers 51 songs spread over two discs that show Cash's relationships with God and himself were probably more complicated than anyone will ever truly understand.The set features many of the beloved gospel numbers that became instant favorites of so many generations of fans, and it's good to hear them again.NEXT rating: A

Foreign Media Protests Israel's Press Regulations
The Paris-based Reporters Without Borders, a human rights non-profit group which monitors the treatment of journalists worldwide, published its first international index of press freedom on Wednesday, ranking Israel in 92nd place and the Palestinian Authority in 82nd place.
Among the countries in the Middle East, Lebanon was ranked highest in its treatment of the press, landing in 56th place. Israel and several other Middle Eastern countries placed in the bottom fifty among the 139 countries listed. Israel's standing was substantially lower than that of the United States, which placed 17th. North Korea and China were the two lowest ranked countries.
Reporters Without Borders called Israel's attitude towards press freedom "ambivalent," noting the Israeli government generally "respects the local media's freedom of expression, despite its strong pressure on state-owned TV and radio."
The group said Israel's respect for freedom of the press — though generally good — has suffered since Israel's incursion into Palestinian territories in the West Bank and Gaza in March 2002.
"[V]ery many journalists have been roughed up, threatened, arrested, banned from moving around, targeted by gunfire, wounded or injured, had their press cards withdrawn or been deported," the group said in its report Wednesday.
The report comes amid an increasingly heated dispute between foreign media outlets and Israeli officials. Over the last month, the Israeli government's press office said foreign photographers and production staffers could receive press cards only if they obtained a work permit from the Labor and Welfare Ministry and a visa from the Interior Ministry.
Israel Government Press Office Director Daniel Seaman said the new requisites were necessary to enforce tighter security precautions.
"Today there is a greater need to look out for the State of Israel's interests because we are in an emergency situation," Seaman said in an Oct. 11 interview with Kol Ha'Ir.
Seaman maintained that the new accreditation measure was a security precaution, but acknowledged that it would likely result in a substantial reduction in the number of foreign, notably Palestinian, reporters working in Israel — a likely boon to local Israeli journalists.
The permit issue would not apply for Israeli Arab journalists, or those from East Jerusalem, but will ultimately target Palestinians.
"Palestinians are no longer under our jurisdiction, and we no longer give them accreditation," Seaman said.
Foreign media agencies have protested the measure, noting the very difficult — and dangerous — prospects of entering Palestinian-controlled territories without Palestinian stringers and photographers. And, since most Israeli journalists will not enter those territories, media coverage of events within the West Bank and Gaza could be nearly impossible.
Seaman has long encouraged foreign media outlets to contract Israeli reporters instead of Palestinians, arguing that Palestinians are trying to manipulate the international press.
"The Palestinians let the foreign journalists understand: if you don't work with our people we'll sever contact with you, you won't have access to sources of information and you won't get interviews," Seaman said.
Seaman lashed out at the foreign press for taking "direct instruction of the Palestinian Authority … to determine what is broadcast."
"The offices of the foreign networks in Jerusalem are compelled to hire Palestinian directors and producers," Seaman said. "Those people determine what is broadcast. The journalists will certainly deny that, but that is reality."
"[The foreign media] have grown accustomed to being treated very freely in Israel, but the liberty that we gave them was abused," Seaman told Kol Ha'Ir, blaming the foreign media for sullying Israel's international image.
Seaman cited the Associated Press, Reuters, The Washington Post, the BCC and CNN, among others, for relying on Palestinian reporters and taking their editorial direction, a charge vehemently denied by media agencies, including the BBC, The Washington Post, The Guardian, and CNN.
Seaman also said that several foreign reporters, including Lee Hockstader from The Washington Post and Suzanne Goldberg from Britain's The Guardian were shunted from their positions in Jerusalem because of souring relations between the reporters and the Israeli government.
"We didn't revoke their press cards, because this is a democratic country," Seaman said. "But in the name of that same value I also have the right not work with them. The editorial boards got the message and replaced their people."
The Guardian responded that the decision to move Goldberg to another news bureau was unrelated to Seaman's claim and praised the integrity of her work in Jerusalem.
"The decision to promote [Goldberg] to a new role in Washington was mine alone, and was utterly unconnected with any view of her reporting which the government of Israel might or might not have had," The Guardian's editor, Alan Rusbridger, said in a letter.
Reuters Jerusalem Bureau Chief Tim Heritage dismissed Seaman's allegations the foreign press was taking direction from the Palestinian Authority, saying "Seaman's accusations are absurd and baseless."
The BBC's Middle East Bureau Chief Andy Steele also rejected the claims and called for a boycott against Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon's press office.
In an internal e-mail, which was leaked to the London-based Jewish Chronicle, Steele reportedly described the accreditation issue as "part of a long war of attrition between the prime minister's office and the foreign media."
Steele wrote in the leaked e-mail that it was "difficult to find ways to retaliate without losing our journalistic objectivity — except for one thing — I'd like to deprive the Prime Minister's spokesmen of their platform until we resolve this," The Jewish Chronicle reported. Steele recommended the BBC staff deal with the Israeli foreign ministry's office rather than the prime minister's office.
The BBC's press relations office refrained from confirming or denying Steele's complaint against the prime minister's office, but acknowledged the BBC and other media outlets were working "to resolve issues with the Israeli government over accreditation."
