"To me it's like fast food and the food you cook at home," said Pham, managing partner at Tea Time. "A tea bag is great for convenience, but when I can I like to sit down ... and take the time to brew a cup of loose leaf tea. It's like a ritual for me and I think people should take time to wind down." Pham and his wife, Thao Nguyen, run Tea Time, a tea room on Ramona Street in downtown Palo Alto that offers food, tea accessories and, of course, more than 100 types of loose leaf tea. The two took up the business in 2006 and teach classes to help people appreciate a cup of Darjeeling or sencha the same way they might with a glass of cabernet sauvignon. "Tea and wine are almost like brother and sister," he said. "They're very similar in the way they're cultivated, harvested and presented in the final cup. The difference is only in the price." Pham and Nguyen will be teaching "An Introduction to Tea Enjoyment" through Foothill-De (continued on page 35) T Clockwise, from top left: Loose leaf teas, such as the silver needles white tea (in foreground), wait to be steeped for a tea-tasting class at Tea Time in January; Pat Obuchowski sniffs a Chinese black tea during class; Mandeep Mann pours a small cup of second-flush Darjeeling tea. Page 33 Page 34 Home & Real Estate Tea (continued from page 33) Anza College on Feb. 13, April 23 and April 30. Tea Time's classes include subjects such as tea types and origins, how tea is processed, how to spot good tea, tea's health benefits, brewing the perfect pot and tea terminology. Pham said people undervalue tea, partly because of its relatively low price, and partly because people tend to lump together loose leaf tea and the more commercially available "supermarket" tea bags, which tend to be lower quality. The loose leaf tea sold at Tea Time comes from hand-picked young tea leaves, which are higher quality than larger, more mature leaves. Each leaf must be dried and rolled with care so that it is not damaged, because this can affect the tea's flavor. The next step is oxidation of the leaves, which determines whether a tea will be black, oolong or green. White tea undergoes very little processing after harvest. Even with the best of loose leaf tea, Pham said a few easily avoidable mistakes can bring down your brew. Good water quality and correct temperature are crucial components to well-brewed tea. Pham recommends using only filtered soft water; any impurity, mineral or chemical in unfiltered or hard water can absorb or change the tea's flavor. Each tea has specific requirements for water temperature and steeping time. Teas with little to no oxidation -- such as green tea or white tea -- should be brewed at a lower temperature (between 176 and 186 degrees) and moreoxidized black teas should be brewed at nearboiling-to-boiling temperatures (203 to 212 degrees). Water that's too hot for a particular tea type may destroy some of its more delicate flavors while a tea steeped in water that's too Tim Pham, center, leads a tea tasting as participants Mandeep Mann, left, Melissa Evans, Pat Obuchowski, Marion Krause and Rachel McDowell try the different varieties of tea during class on Jan. 24 at Tea Time. cool may not release all the tea's flavor. Tea enthusiasts don't need to keep a thermometer to enjoy teas at specific temperatures. Near-boiling temperatures can be achieved by boiling water and letting it cool for two to three minutes. Pham's rule of thumb to achieve reasonable temperatures for more delicate teas is to mix one part of cool water with four parts of boiling water. Pham, who has a master's of science in food science and engineering from Wageningen University in the Netherlands, sees tea as a healthy part of his daily life. Tea's health benefits are centered around the disputed science of antioxidants and free radicals. Free radicals are atoms with unpaired electrons that can do damage to cells by reacting with DNA or cell membranes. Tea has high levels of antioxidants, compounds that react with free radicals before they can damage cells. Some studies suggest a link between antioxidant consumption and a reduced risk of heart disease, stroke and some cancers. "Tea has a lot of antioxidants," he said. "You don't have to eat 2 pounds of vegetables to get the same amount as four cups of tea." Tea was a part of Pham's life when he was growing up in Vietnam and it continued to be even after he immigrated to the Netherlands. Both countries have strong cultural traditions of tea drinking, he said. Pham had worked in the dairy business for most of his career. But when he and his wife moved to the United States with their two young sons, they decided to get into the tea business, which they felt was both honest and potentially successful. "The market for dairy in California is satisfied and saturated," he said. "If you look across all the markets in food, tea is the one that hasn't really been touched." Pham's class was popular last September, bringing 175 candidates and 75 tag-alongs. He says this local trend reflects on the industry as a whole. According to a 2011 report by the Tea Association of the United States, tea sales grew from $.27 billion in 1990 to an estimated $7.77 billion in 2010. "People have noticed how healthy and how delicious tea is," he said. "The industry is picking up well, although it's a little behind compared to other drink businesses. But the foundation is there." Even as the industry grows, Pham said he enjoys the personal side of his business and the classes he teaches. "At the end of class people exchange their numbers or come back to Tea Time together, and I see friendships flowering." Editorial Assistant Eric Van Susteren can be emailed at email@example.com.

DRE 70007666 & OFFERED AT $899,000 Page 36 Home & Real Estate RentWatch Can a landlord charge extra for a `companion' animal? edited by Martin Eichner For severa l years I have been undergoing psychotherapy for a nervous illness, which has now been diagnosed as a general anxiety disorder. I live at an apartment complex that does not allow pets, but my psychiatrist has recently urged me to get a companion animal, which she thinks would give me a positive relationship that would alleviate my anxiety. A friend helped me find a very nice Cocker Spaniel puppy that was up for adoption. I asked my community manager to allow me to adopt this dog and bring him to live with me. The manager refused, telling me that he was only obligated to allow a service animal such as a guide dog. He said he did not have to accommodate a pet that merely kept me company. When I pressed my right to a companion animal, the manager offered to allow me to keep the puppy, but said I would have to purchase renter's insurance and pay a $500 pet deposit along with a $75 per monthly rent increase. I am a low-income person, living on disability. I cannot afford these additional payments. What are my rights under the law? Federal and state fair-housing laws require housing providers to make reasonable accommodations in rules, policies and procedures when they are necessary to afford a person with a disability equal enjoyment of her home. A tenant has a disability under the federal fair housing act if she has a physical or mental impairment that substantially limits one or more of her major life activities, or if there is a record of having such impairment or if she is regarded as having such impairment. Q A The state of California provides an additional protection. In California the physical or mental disability need only limit a major life activity. The limitation does not need to be substantial. A disabled tenant wanting to request a reasonable accommodation must establish a causal connection between the disability and the request. The accommodation request can be made orally or in writing, although we strongly recommend a written request. In the request, the tenant should clearly specify what the accommodation would be and, if the need for the request is not readily apparent to the landlord, why such a request is being made. The tenant does not have to go so far as to name the actual disability, and such a demand by a landlord would be improper. It is advisable to include a support letter from the treating physician recommending the request, which in your case could be your psychiatrist. A companion animal that helps you alleviate your anxiety is recognized as a reasonable accommodation for your type of disability, entitled to the same status as a guide dog or other service animal. Assuming that the disability is not readily apparent to your landlord, he could request documentation verifying the need for the companion animal. Absent an undue financial and administrative burden, a housing provider is then expected to grant the request. Your manager is not permitted to pass the cost of the accommodation to you and therefore cannot charge a pet deposit, or increase your rent because of the pet, or require insurance not required of all other tenants.

2013 King of Motos Ride Report

You were the guy on the XR650r behind me? I hope you got to see some of that crash! And thanks for picking my bike up! Never had the wind knocked out of me quite like that! I left the bike behind a boulder that would have brought a trophy truck to a stop. So I don't think that was disrespectful or dangerous.
V2R is actually the only race I've DNF'd and I wouldn't say it was for my lack of preparation. On that note its obvious my bikes could use some more prep work, but racing is a hobby for me right now. I'm in school, and starting up
takes all my time and money. Most my friends stopped riding during college because they cant afford it, and are too busy. I'm glad im still out there,
racing even though its half assed. Plus it makes for better stories.
Gotta finish up my pesky Friday classes then I'll get back to the RR.

This level of disorganization and unpreparedness, regardless of a competitive environment or not, is dangerous and disrespectful to everyone involved.
I know because I helped get his bike off the course in the V2R you mention.
He was wasted, his bell was rung, and his bike was lying in the middle of the course.
This kind of poor decision making gets people seriously injured and/or killed.
Please, if you give a sh!t about this guy, try to steer him in the right direction.
I'd hate to see him, or worse yet, someone else, suffer because of his lack of judgement, preparation and common sense.
rant over, lets hear how this adventure turned out...

The world is well aware of the competitive disadvantages and trade distortion tactics it faces when dealing with the Chinese regime's market. Citing a number of reports by China experts, the media has made it quite clear that basically all Chinese enterprises are beholden to China's regime in one way or another, and thus all of China's foreign competitors are at a disadvantage.
The media, academia, and think tanks have written about China's violations of World Trade Organization agreements, as well as the regime's mercantilist strategies, unprecedented subsidy program, forced labor, currency manipulation, intellectual property rights piracy, and theft of trade secrets.
By providing unfair subsidies to auto part makers, Beijing is "illegally restricting the exports of crucial raw materials that foreign parts makers need to stay competitive," the Wall St. Cheat Sheet website reported at the beginning of this year. But, at this time, the dispute is not about the trade violations that threaten 1.6 million U.S. jobs in the auto industry at a time when thousands of American's are unemployed.
The conflict is due to the Chinese regime taking espionage a step higher. Apparently, the regime ordered its exporters to provide ways and means to commit industrial espionage and electronic sabotage of "critical infrastructures in the United States and in other industrialized countries," according to a July report by F. Michael Maloof, staff writer for WND/G2Bulletin and former senior security policy analyst in the U.S. Department of Defense, on the WND Money website.
The Maloof report suggests that two Chinese companies, Huawei Technologies Co. Ltd. and ZTE Corp., incorporate parts into wireless networks, which allow the Chinese regime to obtain trade secrets, national security, and other confidential information without those being monitored finding out about it.
"A report put out in March by the congressional U.S.-China Economic and Security Review Commission also had warned that Huawei and ZTE were examples of high technology companies the Chinese government could use to enter remotely into telecommunications systems and computers linked to them to gain undetected access to sensitive data," Maloof states in his report.
China experts suggest that the latest dispute highlights the tightrope companies and governments walk on when producing products in China or when including Chinese vendors in their supply chain.
"Naturally, every business environment has certain risks. But for many companies, the operational risks in China are the most complex of all," a September 2010 entry on the Industry Week website suggests.
Assessing Full Risk Impossible
On Oct. 8, an alert went out from members of the U.S. Intelligence Committee in the form of an announcement titled "Chairman Rogers and Ranking Member Ruppersberger Warn American Companies Doing Business with Huawei and ZTE to 'use another vendor.'"
The committee released a report the same day, telling U.S. regulators to stop mergers and acquisitions involving the aforementioned Chinese firms.
The decision by the committee to go public with a report and press releases was based on significant concerns that any equipment produced by Huawei and ZTE conceivably could be manipulated by the Chinese state to gain national security and company proprietary information.
Representatives from both companies appeared before the Committee on Intelligence. Yet, after hours of questioning and request for more detailed information, nothing was provided that alleviated the concerns of the committee members.
Congressman Frank R. Wolf issued the following statement on his website on Oct. 8: "Huawei and ZTE's relationship with the Chinese Peoples' Liberation Army is too opaque to allow them to command and control U.S. telecom networks. Their obstruction of the Committee's investigation further demonstrates that they are not trusted partners for the U.S. government and business community."
Additionally, information was turned over to the Intelligence Committee by industry experts and former Huawei employees, which pointed to a breach of U.S. law and abuse of international business standards. The committee did not delve into said information, but turned it over to relevant U.S. government agencies for further investigation.
"U.S. government systems, particularly sensitive systems, should not include Huawei or ZTE equipment, including component parts. Similarly, government contractors—particularly those working on contracts for sensitive U.S. programs—should exclude ZTE or Huawei equipment in their systems," the Intelligence Committee report recommends.
Chinese Firms' Business Dealings Restricted
"The U.S. government has blocked numerous contracts and acquisition deals between American companies and Chinese equipment makers, usually in an indirect manner," states Lee Ratliff, analyst at market intelligence firm IHS iSuppli, in an Oct. 8 press release.
Ratliff suggests that despite having spent money and time to develop the relationship, a great number of U.S. companies are hesitant to use Huawei or ZTE in their supply chain, as any deal could fall through because of U.S. government objection.
Concerns about espionage and cyber-attacks are not only voiced in the United States, but also by the Indian government, which blocked purchases from Huawei and ZTE beginning in 2010.
Overall, the report from the Committee on Intelligence "could deal a further setback to Huawei's and ZTE's efforts to penetrate the American market in the future," the IHS iSuppli release suggests.
Earnings Not at Risk
"Huawei and ZTE are unlikely to see their sales decline despite the U.S. government's action," according to the IHS iSuppli release.
The U.S. government's recommended ban on purchases from the two companies won't hurt sales of the two Chinese state-owned companies, as they have been awarded a large number of contracts from European companies.
Trailing behind Nokia Siemens Networks B.V. ($10 billion), based in Finland, and Sweden-based Telefonaktiebolaget LM Ericsson ($9.7 billion), Huawei ranked third among wireless infrastructure equipment suppliers in 2010, but jumped to first place by the end of third quarter 2011 at $8.9 billion.
"Huawei during the first nine months of 2011 became the world's largest supplier," according to the IHS iSuppli release.
Choices Are Limited
"This is a market that Nortel and Lucent used to dominate, and I think the U.S. tech industry should be embarrassed by the way it let this market rapidly slip away," an Oct. 10 article on the NetworkWorld website states.
There are very few communication equipment manufacturers for products that are needed to build a 4G wireless network worldwide, and none is an American company. The companies are Huawei, ZTE, Ericsson, and Alcatel-Lucent (based in France).
American company "Cisco, through its acquisition of Starent, [a company based in Massachusetts] is the closest, but there are some holes in its portfolio," according to the NetworkWorld article.
The problem with using Cisco in the supply chain for U.S. products is the close business relationships with the Chinese regime. "Cisco has hundreds of 'network academies' that train thousands of network engineers in China every year," the NetworkWorld article states.
"Cisco's investment in China has totaled 8.5 billion U.S. dollars since 2002. In 2007, it announced to invest 16 billion dollars in China, mainly for R&D as well as education purchase," said an article on the official website for Hubei Province in China.

Baseball Drops Pair At Service Academies Classic
Feb. 23, 2002
Memphis dropped two games at the Service Academies Classic at the USA Baseball Complex in Millington, Tenn., this afternoon. The Tigers suffered a heartbreaking 9-7 loss to Villanova in game one and could not get on track in the nightcap, dropping a 11-7 decision against Navy.
The Tigers committed a combined eight errors and surrendered 10 unearned runs in the two losses.
Villanova 9, Memphis 7
The Tigers were trailing 6-2 midway through the eighth until Scott stroked a two-out single to left with the bases loaded to bring the Tigers within two at 6-4. Senior Jay Fik was inserted as a pinch-hitter following Scott's at bat and sent an inside slider over the right field wall, giving the Tigers a 7-6 advantage heading into the bottom half.
Junior reliever Josh Cartwright kept the score even in the eighth, but surrendered a game-winning three-run homer to Villanova's Dustin Downs and the Wildcats escaped with a 9-7 victory.
Freshman right-hander Michael Novarese allowed five runs (three earned) over 3.2 innings in his first collegiate start. Junior Nick Rogers gave up one run in 3.1 before turning things over to Cartwright in the eighth. The Tigers committed three errors in the fourth inning, resulting in a two-run Wildcat rally .
Freshman shortstop Brent Dlugach and junior first baseman Andy Gesell each had two hits for the Tigers in game one.
Navy 11, Memphis 7
Down 11-3 in the bottom of the eighth, freshman catcher Chris Godwin blasted a grand slam to bring the Tigers within four, but it was too little, too late, as the Midshipmen held off Memphis' late rally for the win.
Godwin and sophomore third baseman Kyle Scott each had two hits for the Tigers. Scott is enjoying a four-game hitting streak and leads the team in hitting at a .667 (8-for-12) clip. Sophomore outfielder Josh Payne and freshman shortstop Brent Dlugach both singled to maintain four-game hit streaks of their own.
Payne also fired a hitless eighth inning for the Tigers.
The Tigers will play Air Force in the S.A.C. Consolation game at the USA Baseball Complex tomorrow morning at 10 p.m.

The translation of Aristotle's Poetics made by George Whalley is distinctly unlike any other in English. As John Baxter explains in his preface to the work, "in several ways [it] declines to be a translation" in order to make Aristotle "strange, to defamiliarize us, to startle us into new perceptions of the vigour of Aristotle's thought" (Whalley 1997, x, xii). Thinking of his students who had little or no Greek at their command, Whalley produced a translation with an exhaustive commentary that intends to bring Aristotle's writing close to the style of a spoken voice and turns away from the tradition of using a latinate style that makes Aristotle sound akin to a nineteenth or twentieth …

My wife and I discussed this last evening as we drove home from her parent's place after Easter Dinner. In Canada, we get to keep the full Jackpot amount without Taxes...so if this week's LottoMax is $40 million (which it is) you get to deposit the whole sum after you've cleared the background checks.
We figured we'd give my parents, her parents, my brother and his wife a million dollars per couple. We have a set of really good friends who are not well off financially, and we figured we'd slip them half a million.
One of my best friends, one of the groomsmen at our wedding and my old partner from work was injured in a Motorcycle Accident almost 3 years ago when some 17 year old in a cage T-boned him. It ended his Paramedic career, and he still has yet of receive any type of settlement. While not an ADV rider, he's been clear across the country on his Kawasaki Nomad and his Harley and is very active in the CMA. We'd give them a million.
Now, how much do I have left? 35.5 Million? Hmmmmm...
Gonna invest about half of that...gotta make sure that I can continue to live comfortably while pursuing my dreams, right?
So, I've got - what, 17.75 million to play with?
Better open up some College Funds for my son and my nephews. And buy them some dirt bikes. Every kid's gotta have a dirt bike, right?
I'd take the whole family (Me, Little Stain and Mrs. Stain) to some warm, exotic location, and probably Disney World. Then, we'd leave Little Stain with Grandma and Grandpa and go some place warm for me and the Mrs.
Then when we were home, have to hook up with a Realtor for one of these:
And then a huge shop to play in:
I'd certainly need one of these:
And one of these:
And then I'd have to plan my trip around the world.
After that, I'd probably just sit around my huge house, eat cheetos, watch pr0n and masturbate.

In fuel-economy face-off, Ram sets a new bar to top, Wall Street
Journal, Feb. 5
o There's a new target to beat in the large pickup truck fuel-economy wars: The Chrysler Group said its Ram 1500 EcoDiesel truck has earned a U.S. Environmental Protection Agency-estimated rating of 28 miles a gallon in highway driving, setting a new bar to top for truck brands, especially Ford Motor Co.'s lightweight, aluminum-bodied F-150 due out later this year, the Wall Street Journal said. Chrysler took the highway fuel-economy crown more than a year ago with the rollout of a new gasoline-powered Ram 1500 that, when equipped with a V6 engine and eight-speed transmission, gets 25 mpg highway, the Journal said. The new Ram diesel goes on sale this month - it will be the first light-duty diesel truck to hit the market in nearly 15 years, the Journal said.
Ram 1500 diesel sets new fuel economy benchmark for
MLive.com, Feb. 4
o Chrysler reported that the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency has certified the 2014 Ram 1500 diesel at 28 miles per gallon on the highway, the best rating ever achieved by a full-size, half-ton pickup, MLive.com said. With the highway mileage and a 20 mpg city rating, the EPA certified the pickup with a combined rating of 23 mpg, the Michigan-based news website said. "The Ram 1500 EcoDiesel has outstanding pick-up truck capability with compact car-like fuel economy," said Ram Truck President and CEO Reid Bigland, MLive.com said. The 3.0-liter EcoDiesel engine delivers peak torque of 420 lb.-ft., unsurpassed among full-size trucks equipped with V6 engines, the article said.
