Looks like a big guard, and he can really add depth to the guard spots. With McDermott signing another player, does this mean someone is leaving?
Articles and quotes:
"A physical point guard with a knack at getting into the lane and finishing with either hand, Brister is also a versatile and excellent defender. His ability to rebound defensively and take the ball down on the break puts a great deal of pressure on opposing teams. The weakness of his game is his outside shooting."
Jerry Meyer- Rivals.com recruitng analyst
Class of 2006 guard Marcus Brister is headed to prep school after this year at Duncanville (Texas) High School. The sturdy 6-foot-3 guard was outstanding against the H-Squad, scoring 27 points and dropping off eight assists. He was getting after it on defense and played with a lot of emotion. Brister said he will likely end up at either Heritage Christian or Mt. Zion next year.
Brister said he is holding current offers from Minnesota, Utah, UTEP and Southern but will focus on getting his grades straight at prep school next year. His recruitment will take on more Big 12 and Big Ten schools next year. His game is suited for the AAU/prep school scene. And that is meant as a compliment.

hmmm idk..
Iowa State: Anyone who's a true college basketball fan needs to see a game at Hilton Coliseum. Nice is in the DNA of Iowans and the fans here are particularly gracious -- even when the home team loses but gives a great effort, they are appreciative.
ESPN.com picked Hilton Coliseum as the "Hot Arena" in the Big 12...coaches in the league noted that, "regardless of talent, the Cyclones have a home court like no other."
Curious... very curious.
Go Sssssssssyclones!
Wow, it's for real now. I do wonder who's leaving.
don't really know much about him. would really help boost our depth at point.
I see Mr. Brister is a Man of God: Duncanville, TX God's Academy.
I see at 6-2 (6-3) he weighs 200 pounds. It's gonna be pretty hard for opposing point guards to knock him around!!
2 Point Guards in the upcoming class and another in 2008 (Buckley)...

This is a little alarming.
At least he is not 160 or 170 lbs. Hopefully he can drive and hold on to the ball.

Why would we grab another PG when we have Garrett coming in next year, and Buckley coming 08'? I am confused and worried. I will be shocked whomever it is that leaves.
If it were Jiri that were leaving, why would we get yet another guard? I highly, highly doubt it's McIntosh or Taylor since they would lose their final year of eligibility. That leaves Dodie, and that would really surprise me.
Is Neal on scholarship?
Makes me think either McIntosh or Dunson have told the staff they are not returning, or that there is a concern that Garrett or Boozer won't qualify.
Competition is great!! See the thread about beating a dead horse.
Maybe nobody is leaving
All 4 may not be coming in.

American Fair is an intimate study of the hard-working farmers of York County, Maine, facing a vanishing way of life, their knowledge of land and beast, commitment to tradition and community.
At the 140th fair in Acton, Maine farmers congregate in the spirit of both co-operation and rivalry. Families show off their finest handicrafts, agricultural produce and livestock. Teamsters compete to see whose animal is the strongest and whose daughter the most beautiful. Through the voices of farmers and townspeople, vendors and carnival workers, a portrait of a community joining together in celebration of the honest, hard-working agricultural traditions of the region is revealed. Fathers and sons, knowledge of land and beast, carnival workers and strange stories, country girls, ox-pulling, dairy showing, beauty pageants, a pig scramble and more! This feature-length ethnographic documentary quietly reveals the agricultural heritage of the region and opens our eyes to a wholesome side of American culture - as people of the earth.
American Fair was produced by Rick Widmer.

With just 22 days before Christmas, the holiday shopping season is in full swing. This year, the town of Gardiner is trying something new to attract more people to its downtown: It's offering free rent to businesses that set up - or "pop up" - in vacant storefronts in November and December. As Samantha Fields reports, the hope is that the extra stores will make downtown Gardiner feel more vibrant, and bring in more foot traffic.
Downtown Gardiner (above) looks like your quintessential little New England town, particularly this time of year, with a light dusting of snow on the old brick buildings and Christmas wreaths adorning lampposts.
Patrick Wright is the executive director of Gardiner Main Street, an organization dedicated to the economic development and revitalization of this historic downtown. Wright's the one who brought the "pop up" idea to Gardiner. He'd heard about other cities and towns doing similar things, and as the holidays rolled around, he decided it was something Gardiner had to try.
"We had some empty storefronts. Of course, no one likes to see a dark storefront, especially during the holiday season," Wright says.
So he approached local landlords and pitched the idea. Several got on board, and agreed to offer businesses their empty spaces for November and December, for just the cost of utilities.
There were 9 or 10 vacant storefronts in downtown Gardiner when the idea for this project was born. Three of those are now home to "pop up" stores, taking advantage of the two months' free rent. A fourth is occupied, just for December, by a group of local potters who have been doing their own version of a holiday pop up for several years. They're renting their space. And a fifth storefront has been filled permanently.
Wright, and others, say that downtown feels so much more vibrant now, with those storefronts occupied. "That is a lot of the impact we were after for this, too," Wright says. "It's just great to walk past some buildings. Some of these storefronts had been closed for more than a year, had been dark for more than a year. To see the open flag out, and to see activity, is fantastic."
One of those "open" flags is outside Pooch's Second Hand Shop - one of the three pop ups. Pooch's sells donated and consigned items - everything from books to home goods to toys. The proceeds benefit a local animal shelter.
"We did start working out of my mother's garage," says Bethany Rackliff, who runs Pooch's. She says she always hoped to expand out of her mother's garage, but figured saving up the money would take a couple years. The opportunity to get two months free rent - and a storefront on the main street, known as Water Street - made a huge difference. And she's loved seeing the change in atmosphere downtown, too.
"I think that it's wonderful, because otherwise it was just lying stagnant down here," Rackliff says. "And allowing this to, especially for what we're doing, has just allowed us to come in and do this, so I think it's great."
So far, she says, things are going well. "Huge support from the community. Lots of donations, daily. Consigners daily. We're profiting, so we're able to give money. So it's all working really well," she says.
It's still early to tell how well it's working for the town overall. There weren't too many shoppers out and about on Saturday. But local business owners say the busiest shopping days are still ahead.
And most people seem happy to have more storefronts filled - from existing business owners, to local residents, like Jane Stevens. She just moved to town, and has already donated a bunch of things to Pooch's. She says she's a big fan of the pop ups.
"I love it, I think it's awesome," Stevens says. "Hopefully a lot of them will stay permanently. That'd be awesome."
Bethany Rackliff, of Pooch's, says she's already planning on it. And one of the other pop ups, EarthBound - which already has stores in Waterville and Hallowell - would like to expand to Gardiner permanently, too. Some of that will depend on how things go over the next month.
As long as the pop up project creates buzz, and attracts more foot traffic for existing businesses, Patrick Wright says he'll consider it a success. But if one or two of the businesses do decide to stick around permanently? That, he says, would be the "icing on the cake."

Naruto and the Old Soldier (ナルトと老兵, Naruto to Rōhei) is episode 190 of the Naruto: Shippūden anime.
Naruto goes out on a C-rank mission to guard the Land of Fire's northern border from intruders. He is placed on a team with two jōnin. Also on their squad is a very old man named Kosuke Maruboshi who has been a genin for just over fifty years. At first Naruto thinks he shouldn't be on the squad since he is old. But the captain says that he is quite useful. After days of patrolling, the Land of Fire has been infiltrated by a large group Iwagakure ninja. The two jōnin hold the enemies back while Kosuke and Naruto try to escape. Then the old man tells Naruto to report to the village about the news. Later, when Kosuke was injured, Naruto came and tried to stop the enemy. Kosuke said that he wasn't down yet, and defeated the ninja and won the battle.

Lois Lerner is the director of the IRS division that handles applications for tax exempt status. That division was responsible for giving extra scrutiny to tea party and other conservative groups seeking tax exempt status.
In a letter addressed to House Oversight Committee Chairman Darrell Issa, Lerner's lawyer says his client has "not committed any crime or made any misrepresentation but under the circumstances she has no choice but to take this course." He cites an ongoing Justice Department investigation.
Lerner was scheduled to testify to the House Oversight Committee on Wednesday.

Dane Reynolds And Kolohe Andino Scalp Julian Wilson On Day Six Of The Nike US Open Of Surfing
This morning dawned fogless with a surprising increase in surf —yesterday's one-foot crud replaced with chest high peaks. The eighth heat of today's second round read like the opening credits to Kai Neville's Lost Atlas: Dane Reynolds, Kolohe Andino, Julian Wilson, and Aritz Aranburu? Well, never mind Aritz. This is a three-way horse race between the three hottest names in surfing, right?
The heat starts just as expected, with the crowd favorites trading forehand fin wafts while Aritz waits patiently to open his account. Aranburu is not the most well known of the bunch, but this isn't a popularity contest. He knows how to get shit done. After a slow start he drops a high six and low seven in rapid succession, enough to jump into second position with 90 ticks on the clock.
By this point Dane has the heat wrapped up. Julian and Kolohe are both in need of mid range sixes.
With time winding to a close Kolohe—having just fallen on a backside spinner the wave prior—scratches back out, swings on a chippy right wedge, hucks a clean fin throw 180, and nails the required score to boot Aritz and advance behind Dane.
Another clutch performance by Kolohe.
Mick Fanning, current world number four, was unfortunately forced to withdraw from the event and fly home to Australia after having his home burglarized. Bummer for him and the event, as Fanning is always a threat to win in Huntington. Also out of the contest is world number three Adriano De Souza, losing in a close battle to Miguel Pupo and Thiago 'shrimpy' Camarao after shrimpy nailed an 8 point ride for an outside blast and inside air reverse in the dying moments.
"This is my first time beating Adriano, he got me the last few times," said Thiago, behind a big smile in the competitors area. "So stoked to get that last wave."
Looking towards tomorrow we'll see Brazilian upstart Jesse Mendes square off against Dane Reynolds and then a few heats later Jon Florence battle Miguel Pupo – both of whom are on the verge of mid year WT qualification and looking for a big result here in Huntington to solidify their spots in the big leagues.—Zander Morton

Catfight: The Girls Get Feisty On Day Six
Rebecca Woods glanced up at the stands before paddling out for her Round four heat. We hardly noticed. Instead too busy fatting ourselves like royalty in shaded comfort. Eating. Tweeting. Boasting. Mindsurfing what had overnight become completely rippable peaks. And as she soon bottom-turned into a full-rotation tailslide, all pride was lost. We questioned our masculinity. We stared blankly. We cowered in our plastic chairs.
There is something about a woman in desperation at the US Open. Ferociousness surfaces from the usual feminism in the chance at $50,000. Tidal conditions meant tactics were waiting on the sets and pumping for the racy shorebreak line. Paddle-battles and committed maneuvers. Stephanie Gilmore outmuscled Melanie Bartels in dying seconds. Courtney Conlogue posted victory with blowout scores. All action was carryout with musical accompaniment from the dubstep stage.
So quarterfinals look storybook. The usual contenders. Carissa vs. Courtney. The swell. The pressure. The stakes. The cash. All building. And though the Women's World Champ may have already been crowned, winning has never matter more. Everyone is now watching. -Alex Ryden

Increasing Swell Delivers Action Packed Day at ASP PRIME Nike US Open of Surfing
HUNTINGTON BEACH, California / USA (Thursday, August 4, 2011) – The ASP PRIME Nike US Open of Surfing continued today with a massive day of competition and the world's best surfers tore into the increasing swell on offer at Huntington Beach Pier to ignite the event's top scores while furthering their campaigns for the prestigious Nike US Open of Surfing event crown.
In addition to men's ASP PRIME competition, the ASP Top 17 took to the water to decide the Quarterfinalists at the final stop on the ASP Women's World Title Season.
Dane Reynolds (Ventura, CA), 25, has been absent from the 2011 ASP Word Tour season, but put on a show in an amazing heat to earn the event's highest heat-total of 17.43 out of 20 to win his Round of 48 clash over California prodigy Kolohe Andino (San Clemente, CA), 17, Aritz Aranburu (EUK), 25, and progressive Australian Julian Wilson (AUS), 22. Reynolds got off to a slow start in his heat, but unleashed a savage backside 360 air and earned a 9.33 for the maneuver, the highest single-wave score of competition. The regular-footer immediately backed up the wave with another excellent ride to secure his victory.
"It was fun out there," Reynolds said. "I kind of just sat off to the left of everyone and took it easy. I didn't really get any waves in the beginning and Kolohe got an 8 in the beginning for a small wave, so I knew if you were to get a set wave, anything you did was going to be a good score. That 9.33 was really important, I was looking pretty bad in the beginning and that definitely turned the heat for me."
Thiago Camarao (BRA), 23, took an exciting come from behind win in the dying minutes of his heat when he boosted two air-reverses on a set-wave to garner an 8.93 out of 10 to launch from third to first.
"Adriano was just beside me and we were hassling a little bit, but he let me go on that wave," Camarao said. "I knew I should do my best. I needed a huge score and there was a good air section at the end. I knew I had to go for the air."
Camaro's win was no easy task, as he defeated fellow countrymen Adriano de Souza (BRA), 24, and Miguel Pupo (BRA), 19, to take the victory.
"I was so excited because Adriano (de Souza) is a legend in Brazil," Camarao said. "What he has done for Brazilian surfing is amazing. Everything he has done has brought Brazilian surfing to the top. When I saw I was with him and Miguel (Pupo), who is coming from really good results, I knew it was going to be a gnarly heat. I knew I had to surf my best."
Taj Burrow (AUS), 33, looked lethal in his Round of 24 heat and unloaded an impeccable variety of forehand maneuvers on two righthand runners, earning a 15.27 out of 20 heat total to dispatch of fellow elite ASP World Title campaigner C.J. Hobgood (Satellite Beach, FL), 32.
"I was excited out there," Burrow said. "It's got that light wind and the right tide. You can kind of keep your board moving the whole time, so it was good, I liked it. I'm looking forward to getting to the end and hopefully I can hold the check."
Courtney Conlogue (Santa Ana, CA), 17, kept her chances of winning the Women's Nike US Open of Surfing alive when she capitalized on her local knowledge of Huntington Beach to defeat veteran competitor Silvana Lima (BRA), 26, in Round 4.
"The conditions are really tricky and I didn't know whether to go frontside or backside, I stuck to my backside and it ended up working really well in that heat," Conlogue said. "I have a game-plan out there but it's constantly changing with the tide filling in."
Conlogue, current No. 7 on the ASP Women's World Title Series, was relieved to avoid a 9th place finish and hopes to continue her form tomorrow.
"The Round 4 heats, you really want to get through them because a 9th place result isn't the best," Conlogue said. "I was really looking forward to making it to the Quarters and hopefully I make it to the Semifinals in my next heat tomorrow."
Conlogue will face off against freshly-crowned ASP Women's World Champion Carissa Moore (HAW), 18, in the Quarterfinals.
Stephanie Gilmore (AUS), 22, four-time ASP Women's World Champion and former US Open of Surfing Champion, took her Round 4 heat win over Melanie Bartels (HAW), 28, to end the talented Hawaiian's chances of requalifying for next year's ASP Top 17.
"It's hard when you have those heats," Gilmore said. "I knocked out Sally (Fitzgibbons) in France when she was going for the World Title and I know it's a miserable feeling to lose, but at the same time you want to win. No matter what's on the line you're going to go for it. Mel (Bartels) is an exceptionally great surfer and I don't know why she doesn't make more finals. I'm sure she'll be back, she surfs great and we've seen her fall off the tour before and she'll probably come back hungry and surfing even better."
Tomorrows schedule will see the completion of the men's Round of 24, men's Non-elimination Round of 12 and the ASP Pro Junior Women's Semifinals. Wrapping up the day will be the Hurley Pro Trials.

My family is not very supportive of my love of sushi so I don't have many negative experiences to speak of. However, I lived in Orlando, Florida for several months, and since it is a destination many people may go to, I thought I would mention a restaurant I had a good experience at.
It is called Seito and it is in Wintergarden (just a few minutes north on I4). If you were visiting Disney and wanted to try the teppanyaki in Epcot, I would recommend that you go to Seito instead. The Epcot restaurant is (not surprisingly) very expensive and they don't have very many options because of how many people they have to serve per hour. Seito on the other hand has many traditional sushi as well as many original-creation rolls, several of which are named after Disney movies and characters. My favorite was the Beauty and the Beast roll - salmon and eel! Another drawback is that they never bring out the characters in Japan anymore. They used to have Mickey, Minnie, Donald and Daisy come out in silk kimono - very cute! It's funny to watch all the Japanese girls run to Epcot- France though, screaming in delight when Marie the Cat comes out!
My regular home is near the second largest mall in America, The Palisades Mall in southern New York. We have a restaurant there called "East", although I'm afraid it might suffer from mass-produced sushi-syndrome. I just like it because it has the fun conveyor belt and because my (very very large Hungarian) boyfriend and I can stuff ourselves for around $30 :D
I'm not a racist. Generally it is a bad sign when you go into a restaurant and no one of that ethnicity is either eating there or cooking. And the name of the restaurant is Kyoto, which is very generic. I wonder how many unaffiliated places have the same name?
I generally make my own sushi and sashimi at home where I can control all the variables. What if the other guy your chef is making sushi for orders trout sashimi and you make a point of only ordering salt water fish, and the chef forgets to clean his knives between fish? Do you really want parasites...?
speaking of terrible japanese restaurants, i found zen sushi (http://www.zensushi.us/) in new jersey to be terrible. i ordered the chicken teriyaki lunch, and they'd managed to overcook it until it was rock-hard and barely edible. the shumai was overdone. and they burned the green tea! the entire stock of it. first, i thought it may have been a mistake, and ordered another cup of it.. only to find this one just as burned and disgusting. it smelled foul, and was completely undrinkable. the waitress wasn't particularly friendly, and in general i don't think i'd ever go back.
now yoshi sono (http://www.yoshi-sono.com/) is a lovely place. i used to go there almost every day for lunch until much of the staff knew me by heart. i do believe everything i've eaten there was not satisfactory if not delicious, and i'm sad that i no longer live closer.
I agree with you. Their is a lot of racist comments here. I kind of feel offend when people make bad comments toward the asian races(excluding Japanese). For all those non-Japanese people who are making racists comments towards the other non-Japanese owned resturants saying that the food at the resturant isn't good because it not runned by Japanese people, remember that implies that your cooking must not be good because you're not Japanese either.....Oh yea, I also agree that Asian fusion cooking tastes bad too. It's like halfway asian and the rest something unidentible. O_o
I personally don't mind eating at a non-Japanese owned restaurant serving Japanese food...I do give them a try (or a couple times). I judge on taste and price; the higher the price, the more I care about taste. But my experience has been that non-Japanese owned places in my city are not as good. There's a place across the street from my place that I really want to like, because it's so close. But I went there a few times and decided I'd rather drive somewhere else. It used to be good with previous owner...I guess I'll wait until ownership changes again before I go back.
At the end of the day, I see it like wine...if it tastes good to you, it's good wine. Even if it's fusion style.
By the way, even Thai restaurants are a similar case...being run by non-Thai "neighbors". But then again, if it tastes good then it's good. I tend to judge based on what I've eaten before.
Most Japanese restaurants in Stockholm are bearable but often quite expensive, spite the fact that shushi-places are everywhere.
I moved to a new area and decided to try out the local ones. On one street there where two shushi restaurants facing each other, one called "Genkai" and the other called "Helenes Sushi". Well, I naturally tried Genkai with high hopes and received a bland plate of mixed sushi on dry, warm rice. Not luke warm. Hot. A bit discourage I decided to try out "Helenes" and it was great, easily one of the best ones in Stockholm.
So, what's in a name? Not much obviously. Being in Sweden it's had to get good tuna, but the salmon is almost always excellent and cheep to.
I've been to wagamama twice, one time in copenhagen on vacation, for lunch. I had some absolutely superb miso soup which really is out there with some of the best ive ever eaten. I also had some really tasty noodle dish with chicken and some other things in it (no idea what it was called anymore, its been about 5 years or so)
Hence my excitement when we also got a wagamama here in groningen in the netherlands, I went there one time, and this was also the last time I visited.
They didn't have the same menu as the one in copenhagen, and the tasty noodles with chicken was nowhere to be found, so I ordered some kind of noodlesoup instead, wow what a disappointment, it tasted mostly like water and none of the food we had there was any good at all, I never went back there.
One place I do really like over here in the netherlands is "tiny tokyo" its actually a sushi take out which is on most big train stations here, but they also sell some other hot take away dishes. I absolutely -love- their food, its always extremely fresh, tastes absolutely great. not all that expensive either.
Sadly actual japanese restaurants over here at extremely expensive and as a student I cant afford to shell out 40 euro for one meal so until then im more or less stuck with my sushi take out and cooking out of recipebooks lol
Been to that noodle place Alisan in Rowland Heights It's a Taiwanese place, very bad noodles. I rather go to those Japanese places in Costa Mesa. In that shopping center stay away from the noodle shop and the soft tofo ( Korean) we went twice and got sick!
Wasabi near Woodland Hills Mall in Tulsa, OK had Okay food in general, and not bad prices, weird decor (looked more like very fancy Medieval furniture, very heavy ornately carved wood chairs and dark burgundy velvet booths) but the rice was Mushy and bland. The sushi rice. Never going back.
Wow. I've eaten in a few London branches of Wagamama at various times, and I've always felt they were pretty reasonable. They're not fabulous, and don't even claim to be authentic, but they're cheap and cheerful.
I guess there's room for quite a lot of variation between branches of a chain, or even within the same branch from year to year as staff change. I'm surprised that it can vary so much, though, that some can consider the food inedible! Maybe I've just been lucky with my ordering - or perhaps I just have low standards!
I live in an area of West London which has a fairly large Japanese population, and we have several really good Japanese restaurants nearby. I would never put Wagamama in the same bracket as them. I think of Wagamama as more in line with fast food joints - and they're certainly way closer to real food than eating at McDonalds or Burger King!
"I judge on taste and price; the higher the price, the more I care about taste..."
That isn't how great 5 star restaurants work, like anything in life its also about the experiences and setting, who you're with and what you like. When it comes to humans experiencing taste, it isn't about 6 taste sensations or texture, it is also about who you are with, where you are, the ambient temperature, the background noise, ad infinium. You can send a meal back at a 5 star restaurant if you're in a poor mood, and it is rather simplistic to simply base a restaurant on 'taste' That attitude is simplistic at best, I've seen children who were more open minded.
your statement is also illogical because some of the best tasting food one may have is from street vendors who are in a gutter surrounded by pigeons. Now how would you judge that?
I think you may be taking that comment the wrong way. Think about it more like this: If you are hungry you will be prepared to buy anything cheap to fill the gap, and if it tastes great that's a bonus and you'll make a point of returning. On the other hand, if you are paying lots of money for a meal you expect it to taste great. No amount of ambience will make me return to an expensive restaurant if the food isn't good. Wonderful food, however, can be worth putting up with not so good service and tatty surroundings even if it costs a lot.
How is that statement closed minded? If I'm paying a ton of money for food, then it better be delicious. Regardless of how well I'm treated, how beautiful the restaurant is, or how comfy the seating is, if I'm paying a huge amount for the food it better be good. That's just logical. You send a meal back at a 5 star restaurant because you didn't like it, and since you're paying for it, you should get something you like. And the statement doesn't say anything about bad food being cheap. Cheap food can definitely be good, and that makes you really happy. But IF you are paying a lot of money, it better be good.
I'm in Belfast NI and the wagamama here is disappointing, with rather bland noodles containing burnt chicken, not crispy or overcooked, properly blackened to the point that i left most of the dish and all the chicken behind :( There is however a great place on Botanic Ave called Sakura, they have good quality sushi, quite nice sashimi and a great variety in the rest of the menu, never been to japan so can't vouch for how traditionally japanese the food is but its good tasty food at a reasonable price (for their lunch menu anyways, it gets more expensive in the evening)
I live in Baltimore MD, USA (near the Inner Harbor). We went to an asian place (don't know if it was supposed to be Japanese/Chinese or what). It's called the Blu Bambu (located next to the Hard Rock Cafe and Aquarium) @621 E. Pratt St. #120. I can't imagine they have any return customers. They had a regular menu and then a "build your own stir fry" bar (which we thought was gonna be awesome). The menu items were over priced and not very good- small portions and didn't taste very good. Then when they cooked the stir fry, they just tossed it in a pan and let it simmer. Half the veggies were soggy and half were under cooked. Very disappointed. In the end we spent about 18 USD per person.
The only good part was that all my friends just ranted about how I could cook better Japanese than this place (I'm a white American girl who just dabbles in Japanese cuisine because I think it's yummy). And they all decided I had to cook one of my "wonderful" Japanese dinners LOL! A bit of a self-esteem booster LOL!
I agree with you that these places should not be marketed as "Authentic", that is insulting. That said it happens the world over, Comparing the average UK Indian or Chinese takeaway with native food would be pretty naiive. For that matter, a plastic roast dinner in a pub chain, or the American take on the very simple meal of fish and chips doesn't do much for British food either.
That said, stopped off at Wagamama in Newcastle, and the food was tasty, fresh and well cooked. I went in with absolutely no expectation of it being anything remotely Japanese and was pleasantly surprised by the fact that it tasted clean and fresh.
That said, noodle bars across Asia provide some yummy stuff, freshly cooked and costing a pittance and we are taken in by ridiculously over-priced mediocrity. I'd say just go home and get your wok out, exotic ingredients cost a small fortune too, so why not take the flavours that you like and experiment.
why does a "sushi outlet" serve okonomiyaki? sushi & teppan are pretty much polar opposites in Japanese cuisine, aren't they?
maybe I'm close-minded, but as a rule of thumb, I steer clear of places that try to please everyone by offering everything, regardless of ethnicity.
"jack of all trades, master of none" does not lead to good eats.
Both sushi places in our town are owned by Koreans. Actually one is owned by a local Korean-born family and the other is owned by the Unification Church. The family restaurant serves the best sushi IMO and they do wonderful bento-style meals with lovely, delicate rice, little skewers of meat with intensely savory sauces, delectable tempura vegetables, etc. The cult restaurant is the best with noodle dishes and desserts. They run neck and neck with miso soup and also with overall service.
Now, if you want horrific fake-Japanese food, you need to step on over to the local supermarket, which has a hot food counter called "China Express." It used to be pretty darn good. They had the same cook for years and he used to work in a restaurant in Taiwan. I can't pronounce his Chinese dishes authentic because I've only eaten about 20 meals in Hong Kong and Guangzhou and most of them were the same thing because that was cheap. But they were full of contrasting textures and complex flavors using spices I couldn't identify--and I cook medieval European food, so I've used a lot of stuff Westerners find unfamiliar. He also did a mouthwatering daily staple called "teriyaki chicken" that was actually stir-fried chicken and slivered onions in his own teriyaki sauce, as well as Japanese-style curry now and then. And he made basic cucumber rolls on the premises. They may not have been authentic, but they were delicious.
Then he moved away.
Ever had a cucumber roll with dry, unseasoned long-grain rice in it?
Ever wonder how the new sushi makers failed to notice that the things were falling apart AS THEY MADE THEM?
To add insult to injury, the supermarket higher-ups decreed that the supermarket could only serve "healthy" food. This meant no salt (in soy-sauce-based cuisine?!) and more vegetables in everything (even the teriyaki chicken and the Mongolian beef) and less oil (in STIR FRY) and so what you got at China Express was bland meat and vegetable casserole eight different ways. Yes, even the Mongolian beef.
Luckily, they hired some actual cooks again. Now I simply look at the teriyaki chicken. If there are big slivers of raw carrot in it, management is in today and the cook had to use the "approved" recipes. If there aren't any carrots, management is out and the food is going to be good.
Too many things to say about them. This is more than enough:
I live in Jacksonville, NC. Trying to find decent Japanese food is pike trying to find someone who doesn't own a shotgun. If I'm really craving it I have to go to lowes food and eat supermarket sushi in shame. 45mins away is anxawesome place called Shoguns but I cant afford the gas to get there.
Ugh, we went to Fuji in Anderson, South Carolina and the sushi service was TERRIBLE! I love going there, and I love their hibachi, but when I asked what, specifically, was on their salmon roll, the girl looked at me like I was an idiot and said "Umm... salmon?" Really? I had NO clue lady! So I replied, "Well, yes, but just salmon and rice? As in nigiri? Because it's listed as a roll." Her reply? "Umm... I guess so."
No, just no. If you want your waitresses to take your sushi orders, then they ought to now about the sushi just as much as they know the hibachi menu.
Then we tried the new place, Tokyo Bay, and the sushi there was deplorable. I refused to eat some of their yellowtail sashimi simply because it DID NOT look safe for consumption. I've seen sushi-grade fish of many types, including yellowtail, and that was not sushi-grade. To make it worse, the actual sushi rolls were "Americanized" in every way. "Top Gun" roll was one of them. "Geisha" roll. I'm all for some creative naming, you can't just call it the "List-all-the-ingredients-in-order" roll. But there were NO names that actually made sense. Even their basic rolls had to have fancy names. Again, no, just no.
So I always go to our Thai Spice, which has a really great sushi chef. Every roll I've gotten has been fantastic (Assuming I usually liked the ingredients, that is. I'm not a big fan of cream cheese, so I would obviously dislike a roll with cream cheese in it.), and Thai or not, it's my preferred choice of sushi restaurant.

Topic: Our Take on ZOOKEEPER...
Posted: July 01 2011 at 9:58am
SO WHY DOES THIS MOVIE REMIND ME of the DARWIN AWARD WINNER WHO GAVE the ELEPHANT an ENEMA, THEN STOOD BEHIND HIM to SWEEP OUT HIS ENCLOSURE?!?!?
ZOOKEEPER FEATURES a GAG-INDUCING GAGGLE of RAZZIE® REPEAT OFFENDERS CAST as the VOICES of ZOO ANIMALS (STALLONE, SANDLER, CHER, and MORE) and TOP-LINES the NEVER-YET-FUNNY 2 TIME RAZZIE® NOMINEE KEVIN JAMES as the TITLE CHARACTER. ITz PLOT TRIES to COMBINE ELEMENTS of DIZZ-KNEE TALKING ANIMAL CARTOONS with SAPPY ROMANTIC COMEDIES, and POSITS THAT the ANIMALS in the TITLE CHARACTER's CARE CONSPIRE to INSPIRE JAMES to PURSUE a ROMANCE with PRETTY ROSARIO DAWSON (the ONLY CAST MEMBER HERE WHO MAY ESCAPE UNSCATHED). BUT WHAT the FILM's SIX CREDITED SCREENWRITERS(!) HAVE COME UP WITH IS...a STEAMING PILE o' MONKEY POO.
WHY ANYONE WOULD PAY to HAVE THOSE FECES FLUNG in THEIR FACES for an HOUR-and-a-HALF IS BEYOND ME.
IF YOU, TOO, FIND THIS FILM "BEYOND the PAIL*" HERE's the LINK to JOIN OUR DISCUSSION of IT.
* INTENTIONAL MIS-SPELLING to ACHIEVE a (HOPED FOR) COMIC EFFECT...
JAMES: "I don't think we've met -- Which of our six
screenwriters are you?!?"

For the past few weeks, I've been frantically searching for my mojo. It just skipped out on me one day and I've been trying to find it ever since. I got a tip that it was last seen sipping a margarita and doing the Macarena on a sunny beach in Cozumel. So, I hopped on a cruise ship and set sail to go and get it back. Unfortunately, by the time I got there all I found was this mariachi band,

Your doctor can usually diagnose nickel allergy based on your:
If the cause of your rash isn't apparent, however, your doctor may recommend a patch test (contact hypersensitivity allergy test). He or she may refer you to an allergy specialist (allergist) or a skin specialist (dermatologist) for this test.
During a patch test, very small quantities of potential allergens (including nickel) are applied to your skin and covered with small patches. The patches remain on your skin for two days before the doctor removes them. If you have a nickel allergy, the skin under the nickel patch will be inflamed when the patch is removed or in the days after removal of the patch.
Because of the low concentrations of allergens used, patch tests are safe even for people with severe allergies.
