Maria Sharapova (or is it her mom?) was spotted at the opening of Tiffany & Co.'s new store at The Americana at Brand in Glendale, CA.
The Russian glamazon also met up with Willie Ebersol, brother of her rumored boyfriend Charlie Ebersol.
The dress Shrieka's wearing is pure prettiness but I can't really tell what's going on with hair. The shorter style ages her and makes her face look really wide. Let's hope it's just an "up-do" and not a permanent cut.
But one thing we can all be happy about: it seems she's finally moved on from the bangs - smart move Shrieka.

SIGHTING: Shrieka gets pretty for Tiffany's store opening but what's up with her hair?
28 comments:
I actually like it that Sharapova did something different with her hair for once, even though it makes her face look 'wide'.ReplyDelete
It's different.
A breath of fresh hair (um, AIR) from the usual straight hair that's always in her face.

LOL what's that green tie on the midget he looks like a clownReplyDelete
VICKI FOURIE: def props for experimenting and trying something new. i was serious when i mentioned the move away from the bangs - it's really so over.ReplyDelete
but she aged like 10 years with the 'do. there must be better ones - but what? how about bigger hair with more volume?? go full on 80's!
t.o.: he's probably normal size but he was "shrunk by shrieka" - a very common condition you get when hanging with russian fashionista.
i caught it last year at this event i went to for her...not fun...
- AnonymousDecember 13, 2008 at 3:53 PM
Her hair's definitely different, which in some ways is good. It looks a bit half-done, though.ReplyDelete
And Ebersol is probably normal-sized, like Rich said, but is, like Rich said, shrunk by Masha.
I'm guessing the only person in the world who won't get shrunk by Shrieka is Delpo, who's like 6'6". Oh, and Yao Ming too.
Wow. That's just all shades of wrong. Doesn't even look like her!ReplyDelete
- AllisonDecember 13, 2008 at 5:03 PM
Her makeup looks a bit off too. Usually it's flawless but it looks 'done' in a bad way.ReplyDelete
- MichelleDecember 14, 2008 at 12:42 AM
I Love Love the dress, the hair not so much.ReplyDelete
I think she should stay away from white right now - it really washes her out.ReplyDelete
Allison was right on when she mentioned the makeup was off...good makeup could have helped because she's so white-washed here.
But the hair is killing me - it makes her look really weird and mos def old.
I didn't even recognise her at first. My first thought was that she looks just a little bit like some kind of milkmaid!ReplyDelete
God, she looks so old!Like a grandma!Make-up is so bad, and it aged her, look how her lips look like she ate a lemon,wrinkled!....My first impression was Bring me some Ana Ivanovic!It looks like Ana officialy took the hottest tron from Masha!I know Masha will glow again many times, thing she has to do, is first go little more blonder, it makes her eyes look great, this is going gray, going blond Masha is what you have to do!And just yeah, go with naturalness, loosen up her hair, or tie it, or go yeah some big volume, little bit curly, and have a make-up, real make-up, not to much, but I just love it when she wears red lipstick, she looks fierce!:)But Masha and her fashion mistakes are not a new thing, so I'm used to it.ReplyDelete
Am I the only one who thinks Maria has a girlfriend and the rumored boyfriend is just that ... a rumor?ReplyDelete
sally: Obvs I completely agree with youReplyDelete
Tessa: She looks good when she experiments some and doesn't try to go to demure - it's not really her thing. I'd say it's better suited for Ana; Shrieka's a glamazon. I'd love her to just go all out and wild - like I said the big hair, Alexander McQueen, crazy makeup.
Pamela: Ah, yes the lesbo rumors about Camilla Belle, who's now supposedly dating one of the Jonas Bros. I don't know - I've never gotten that vibe. But I remember after they posed for those photos during their Euro trip they got posted everywhere and then next thing you know the pics with Camilla were removed from Shrieka's site. That was strange.
I haven't heard a peep about her relationship with Charlie Ebersol after the initial news. Not sure if they're just super private or what but it's hard to hide THAT much when you're as familiar a face as Shrieka.
Anyone else have any updates on Shrieka + Charlie????
OMG I always go nuts whenever I hear people discussing BEST FRIENDS REALTIONSHIP as lesbo one!I mean what is it with you people??How much time do you spend with you BFF!?Mos def 1000 times much more,cause you don't have Masha's schedule, but you don't get photographed on every coffe, on every walk, on every trip,on every hang out, I mean if I got fotografed with my bf every time we met and hang out as they do, it will seem as we'll lovers also, cause of the amount time we're spending together!And they for god sakes don't even see each other as often as any of us do with our BFFs!And it's just a coincidence that one of Masha's best friend is also a celebrity so they can merge they hanging outs on events they'll both attend-fashion shows and similar....it's so stupid these rumours are even alive, or ever were.Lemme ask ya how many times a week you see your best friends?Me as much as possible!Sometimes every day!And Masha sees Camilla like probably once a month!And when they manage to see each other 2 weeks in a row, twice a year, then they lovers, like great how outside lookers interpratate things!C r a z y!ReplyDelete
Ok, first of: Masha does not look good here! The make-up is off, the hair is, well, not flattering, her skin seems to breaking out again and she looks really tired.ReplyDelete
I don't mind the dress but it is boring. I know it's a tiffany's event but she could have been a little more fashion-forward imo. Take the risk instead of playing it save!
Maria Sharapova +Camilla Belle = Mamilla Bellapova? LOL!!! I thought people would have been over this by now.
And actually, Masha and Camilla didn't really get snapped by paparazzi except for the one time at the Miami tournament. Usually if you saw them together it were pics that were taken on the red carpet or pics Masha herself posted on her blog... And I have to say it was fun for a while speculating about their relationship but now it's become really old and boring.
And does anybody here really believe she's dating that Ebersol guy?? Please! He's extremly fug and if it would have been true, don't you think there would have been at least one more picture or story about them? See, there's nothing to it!

Tessa: I had to remove your comment because it linked to another blog post which is spamming. Direct links to photos, and/or videos are fine but not to other blog posts, websites, or products. Always feel free to send me the info directly at firstname.lastname@example.com!ReplyDelete
Here's the rest of your comment:
"@Maja : I completely agree!Finally someone who also thinks the lesbo rumours are true B.S. and the Ebersnol ones, also."
Yeah Shrieka + Charlie were a story for a minute and then *poof* nothing. It seems weird they wouldn't have been spotted anywhere else together though our perspective may be skewed after drowning in Anando news lately.ReplyDelete
I guess if you don't pose for a 1000 photos and videos in a week's time then you couldn't possibly be dating.
Oh I didn't know what exactly was allowed!I'm sorry!:)Ok, I'll send you to e-mail in the future!:))ReplyDelete
- MichelleDecember 14, 2008 at 2:01 PM
Argh..those lesbian rumors again. Give it up, they are probably just BFF's who like to hang out at together, you know like normal girls.ReplyDelete
I don't think the whole charlie thing is true, but who knows maybe they are dating..if so then they are hiding it pretty well, unlike some people :P.
Not a good look for her at all..makes her look much older. And FAT arms, anyone!..lack of training shows big time.ReplyDelete
I think her "fat" arms are just a result of the strength work she did in Arizona. She probably put on a lot of muscle weight! Good for her if she wants to stay healthy and shoulder problem free!ReplyDelete
My observation and belief that she might be a lesbian doesn't really have anything to do with her best friend. It's just a vibe that I get. I don't know why anyone would get offended, if she is - she is. So what? Still though, I think we don't see her with anyone .. man or woman because she doesn't want to be out of the closet.ReplyDelete
Again, just my opinion and personally I like the hair, the dress looks like a fitted table cloth. She's better when she's being glam.
Shrieka's def getting better at the modeling thing - she's looking more natural for sure.ReplyDelete
I wonder if she wasn't working with Rachel Zoe what her style would like like these days? It's hard to say whose style is really theirs and whose style comes from the stylists.
I bet the ones with naturally good style are few and far between because there wouldn't be as many stylists!
I think Masha's still single cause boys are reduced to her cause of her height, I mean it's not easy to find bf when you're that tall, immediatly your opinions are lower.....she so damn tall, she has to go to special places to find boys, so basicly just itentionally go to find men!Basketball court or smth....and maybe men that she finds attractive think of her as a giant!And are not attracted to her, possibly!So I mean, she probably just didn't find that someone,I bet she will.....but Masha lesbian???Out of nowhere is just plain ridicilous!I mean I think Nadal is bi, just the wibe I get!..not..It's ridicilous, we can all just blab around for any of them then, big B.S.ReplyDelete
PS.Masha's stylist is Rachel Zoe?!?!Oh God.Now suddenly some of her ummm fashion choices or mistakes make sense to me.
options is what I meant to say...not opinions...ehh...when you're not an original english speaker....sooorry..ReplyDelete
- AnonymousDecember 14, 2008 at 8:51 PM
Lol at the person who thought Masha has fat armsReplyDelete
I reckon they're probably muscly, but then again, Masha was never as built as a Williams sister or Manresmo
- Tennis ObserverDecember 15, 2008 at 1:25 AM
I do like the lesbo rumors.ReplyDelete
I love the outfit, but I agree that her make up is bad (she's looking so dark underneath her eyes, and there's a great lipstick color missing).ReplyDelete
The hair is a bit weird. I like the idea, but it seems unfinished or something. The braid on the top of her head is nice, though.
As for the relationship rumours... I so do not care about who she's dating. LOL
I really don't get the lesbian vibe though.

Ana Ivanovic is the WTA Tour's escape artist extraordinaire and the world no. 1 can now add today's match to her growing resume including this year's Aussie Open semis (down 0-6, 0-2 vs. Hantuchova and last year's Wimbledon quarterfinals (saved 3 match points vs. Vaidisova.)
The Serb was down a set then saved two match points in the second, one on a netcord, to defeat Frenchie veteran Natalie Dechy 6-7 (2), 7-6 (3), 10-8, the best women's match so far. Ana also ditched the horrible adidas "ladyfinger" dress that she opened the tournament wearing, opting for a simple white sleeveless top and white skirt with venting on the side. It's not an original since Sania Mirza was also wearing it, but a much better style indeed.
I wonder how many more costume changes the 20-year old has in store for us?

FASHION FIX: Ana the escape artist, defeats Dechy in new adidas gear
6 comments:
I saw the third set of Ana's match today and was suprised how badly her backhand was working. Any low bouncing ball on the backhand side seemed to end up in the net.ReplyDelete
Her serve and forehand were generally okay but unless she inproves on the backhand side she will not win Wimbledon.
good call dave - she definitely struggles with dechy's flat groundies. she always seems to have problems on the backhand side with the open stance staying low then hitting through her shot - some flexibility issues maybe?ReplyDelete
yeah the top ballers will attack that side all day long...until it breaks
- AnonymousJune 25, 2008 at 3:45 PM
Glad she got thru. Dechy wouldn't have made it another 2 rounds.ReplyDelete
I like everything about this outfit except the gatherings at the cap sleeves. But it's a HUGE improvement over that hideous dress.
- AnonymousJune 25, 2008 at 7:54 PM
i think it may be time to bring back the ugly bubble dress or the flower dress if ana plays this well in her new outfit.ReplyDelete
- AnonymousJune 26, 2008 at 2:32 AM
I couldn't agree more - that "ladyfinger" dress was hideous! Hopefully she'll stick to this white number. Maybe now the bubble dress doesn't seem so bad eh?! :pReplyDelete
Adidas should really buck up!
no no not the bubble dress! sure the ladyfinger dress is bad and worse than the bubble but ewww not the bubble.ReplyDelete

Ok, so I just read through the entire 6 pages of the last ATV post, and it appears as though nobody drives an Artic Cat. I've always heard negative reviews about them, nothing ever in particular, just negative reviews. They don't seem to be as well built as some others, and I suppose that's reflected in the price..
Does anyone have any actual experience with one? Own one? Looking to buy something soon, probably no bigger than a 450.

Brazilian Nut Date Cake
When I was growing up in Westport, WI. (a little township on the outskirts of Madison) - the church I grew up in, St. Mary's of the Lake, used to make fruit cake as a fund raiser for the church during the Christmas season. It became so well known for being moist and delicious, and so different from store bought fruitcake, that they sold it not only in our community, but around the nation and even overseas. It was always looked forward to as a special treat at Christmas time. My mom saw this recipe years ago in a Better Homes and Garden magazine and said it is the closest thing she has ever seen to the church recipe and my dad agrees as it is one of his favorites too. : ) And as you can see there is no rum in this which is a double bonus! Hope you enjoy!
In a large bowl mix together:
1 1/2 cups whole brazil nuts
1 cup pecan halves
16 oz. pitted dates
1 1/2 cups maraschino cherries (drained well)
In another bowl thoroughly mix together:
3/4 cup flour
3/4 cup sugar
1/2 tsp. baking powder
pinch of salt
In third bowl beat together until foamy:
3 eggs
1 tsp. vanilla
Blend egg mixture into flour mixture.
Pour this over the nut mixture and stir well.
Pour into a 9 x 5 greased and paper lined loaf pan. (My mom uses wax paper and greases that.) Bake at 300 degrees for approx. 1 1/2 hours to 1 hour and 40 minutes. Check for doneness with a toothpick. When done, cool in pan for 10 minutes and then remove from pan. Cool loaf completely and then wrap in cheese cloth and foil. (My mom just wraps in 2 layers of foil so it does not dry out). Store in cool place. Flavor is at its best if you let it sit for at least 1 - 2 days before eating. This is soooooo good - I am craving it now! Have a Blessed Christmas season.
Addicted to Jesus,

When the need was there for Canada, our servicemen and women responded to the call of government to fulfil a duty. There were many sacrifices, bloodshed, wounded and grief to overcome. Still they prevailed. They served with honour and distinction and Canada was proud of their achievements.

PHILADELPHIA (AP) — For a year, the Joker's been out of sight, out of mind and out of trouble.
That changes Wednesday in the pages of "Batman" No. 13. Writer Scott Snyder brings the so-called clown prince of crime back to Gotham to unleash his demented vision of change and, in the process, ensnare Batman and his cohorts in a measured rage of psychotic cleansing and anger.
The issue is the first of what Snyder and DC Entertainment have titled "Death of the Family." It will touch the publisher's various Batman-related titles from now through February and ensnare not just Bruce Wayne, but Batgirl, Catwoman, Robin and members of the Teen Titans.
Snyder calls the story a "deeply psychologically terrifying story" for Batman that will change the Dark Knight.

Item # EAS0258
Don't worry though, we have a lot more 26" Mountain Bike Wheels - Tubeless in stock than that.View Similar Products
Easton EC90 XC Disc 26in Wheelset $0.00
While Easton is renowned for both aluminum and carbon expertise, its carbon Haven wheels proved its ability to apply the latter to one of the most abusive forms of mountain biking. Its proprietary Armored Ballistic Composite was key to this, and now this composite's strength and durability characteristics have enabled Easton to create one of the lightest, 26-inch UST Disc Wheelsets on the market, the EC90 XC.
Easton pioneered the use of new materials in order to create a cross country wheelset with weights that are more equivalent to lightweight road wheels. In comparison to the alloy EA90 XC wheels, the big difference for the EC90 XC carbon wheels is the new composite rim and the loss of a half pound of rotating mass. This weight reduction amounts to a serious seat-of-the-pants feel. The rims combine carbon fiber with high modulus polyethylene, or HMPE (although you might know it as Spectra) in an epoxy resin system that's been rubberized to further add impact strength. The combination of these materials gives them a superior strength-to-weight ratio.
They also have the UST tubeless logo, which means that they're guaranteed tubeless-compatible, and possess all of the shaping and structural requirements necessary to meet the stringent standards for certification. In practical terms, you're able to seat a UST tire on these wheels by hand and with only a floor pump -- no mess and no fuss. Creating a UST-approved rim is tricky, but Easton found a great way to get around the task of eliminating the spoke penetrations in the outer-wall of the rim.
The straight-pull Sapim double-butted spokes are placed in the hub in a three-cross pattern as usual, but the red anodized alloy nipples are specific for this wheel. They're both internally and externally threaded. So, when the spokes are drawn into the nipples, they're simultaneously threading into the alloy inserts at the inner-wall of the rim. This means that they're able to be trued exactly like a wheel with standard nipples, only the included valve stems pierce the entire cross-section of the rim. The rim features a 19mm internal width in order to allow the fitment of cross country tires up to 2.3in wide.
The EC90 hubs are the same CNC machined units that you'll find on the EA90 XC wheels. The shells are crafted from 7050 T-6 aluminum and have been anodized Red. Sealed cartridge bearings keep the wheels spinning smoothly, even if you ride through sloppy mud. And to save a few grams over a typical steel part, the freehub body is also made from 7050 alloy.
The Easton EC90 XC Disc 26in Wheelset is available with either a standard quick-release or 15mm thru-axle. However, with the appropriate parts from Easton, it's able to be converted either way. The rear hub is convertible and it includes all of the parts that you'll need to run a either a quick-release or 12x135mm and 12x142mm thru-axles.

Emma release
Since she will not be appearing all that often on Monday Night Raw and Smackdown, fans are going to naturally wonder if Emma has been released by WWE. She has currently been sent back down to developmental to provide depth to the NXT divas roster. Her job security should be good for the time being, as management wants to avoid having anyone in the media pick up on the fact that they are releasing someone who was arrested last year.

Kevin Nash reinstated
When Kevin Nash was arrested and charged for assault, WWE was quick to suspend his contract. That resulted in a bit of animosity from their former world heavyweight champion, who stated on social media that he has severed ties with the company. However, reports are now surfacing that Nash might have had a change of heart. There is a good chance that he might be making an appearance on the next episode of Monday Night Raw after all.
January 16, 2015
Kevin Nash removed
Initially, Kevin Nash was to have been a big part of the promotional campaign for the Royal Rumble, having been scheduled to make an appearance alongside Shawn Michaels, Scott Hall and Hulk Hogan on the episode of Monday Night Raw before the pay per view. However, with his arrest, it appears that WWE officials have opted to remove him from the event. They are going about it quietly, though, as to not generate any more publicity from the situation.

I am on board! We do 4 gifts for our kids on Christmas, "Something you want, something you need, something to wear, and something to read."
It makes me really THINK about what I'm buying them and focuses more on quality than just buying junk so there is more under the tree. :)

My son is a young adult, working a first career job and living in Boston. He struggles to make ends meet financially, with the high rent and expenses and his not-so-high salary. He told me that he needs to buy new clothes, as what he owns is getting worn out. I suggested I could help him out with that for a holiday gift (give him $ to buy what he needs, since I am not there to go shopping with him). He was upset with me - said he already owes us so much, for helping with college and everything else, that he does not want us to spend any $$ on him. :( He doesn't understand that it isn't about spending $$, it's that I want to help him out since he is just starting out and everything costs so much. Sigh.

Great points. Every year I think that we will get more reasonable with Christmas gifts, and then my husband gets wild, because his family showered each other with Christmas gifts. So this is yet another overindulgent Christmas in our suburban family, I am afraid.

Friction Stir Welding of an Aluminum Plate
Application ID: 461
In friction stir welding, a rotating tool moves along the weld joint and melts the aluminum through the generation of friction heat. The tool's rotation stirs the melted aluminum such that the two plates are joined.
In this model, two aluminum plates are joined by generating friction heat with a rotating tool. Heat is transferred by conduction from the tool into the plates. The movement of the tool is taken into account using a convective heat flux term. The plate surfaces are cooled through free convection and surface-to-ambient radiation.

So! Onto the real reason I brought you here:
Did you know that you peeps only have like two weeks left to get your proposals in to present at Pulse? I know you all have an IBM story to tell. Maybe you don't think anyone would want to hear it or maybe you are concerned that you don't have time to prepare. Or maybe you just don't think that there is good reason to bother.
Nonsense, I say to thee!
First of all, this offer isn't just for high-ranking executives or big business partners. We also need the folks who actually hands-on run the stuff we sell your company. Does it work? Did it get you out of a fix? Did it prevent you from being in a fix? Did it save more money than it cost? That sort of thing.
Secondly, you don't have to worry about this taking a bunch of your time. We'll make it easy for you. This is not a test that you are going to be graded on. This is your story and it's one you know so well, you've probably even told it at a cocktail party. And all you need to do right now is pick a category and draft a 150-word description of what you will talk about. Oh, and submit it at the Pulse website by November 2. That's nothing! This blog is already 280 words. Here is an article that can help you get your proposal accepted.
And thirdly, do you realize what an opportunity this is? You will be immortalized!
Seriously, we promote the heck out of the good stuff people say at Pulse. Why on earth wouldn't we? We might even interview you on camera (if you let us) and put you on our YouTube channel and Tweet, Facebook, and of course blog about you. Client presentations from Pulse are wildly popular. My colleagues ping me weekly with, "I need So-and-So's presentation from Pulse 2009 for a meeting with [client, executive, press, you fill in the blank]!" We'll make you famous (sort of).
Here are some more goodies for our speakies:
- One full conference pass ($1995 value).*
- Use of our exclusive Client Speaker VIP Lounge.
- Networking opportunities with over 5000 industry experts, press and analysts.
- A profile of your success story in the Pulse agenda/curriculum guide.
- EAM papers are eligible for the Maximo best practices award.
What are you waiting for? The deadline is November 2 and the clock is ticking!

Supposedly there are more words in the English language than in most other languages. And yet it feels as though we are limited in our ability to discuss some of the more important ideas - there just aren't enough words. I've read that there are over 40 words for snow in one of the Inuit languages. Makes sense - there are many different types of snow and if this is an important part of daily life, differentiating between these kinds of snow, it's natural that different words wold emerge so that people can communicate clearly.
Although there apparently are a lot of words in English, we have only two that I can think of to describe warm feelings towards another person - "like" and "love." Shouldn't there be more than that? Aren't there gradations that we aren't giving efficient voice to? Same with "happy." There are many different kinds of happiness, but we have few words to differentiate here. There is the kind of happy you feel when a puppy bounds up and starts licking your face or the kind of happy you feel when holding a 6 month old baby. The kind of happy you feel when you've stepped inside from a soaking rain, or finally made it through security after a long line at the airport. The kind of happy you feel when you're finished taking a final exam, or the kind you feel when your test results are negative. The kind you feel when you get to the BBQ and open the back door to the yard, see everyone there talking and eating and having fun, and you haven't yet but are about to join the fray. There's even the weird kind of happiness you (or maybe just me?) feel when you are depressed about something, but finally give in and allow yourself to wallow in it in the comfort and safety of your own home - an exquisitely sad kind of happy.
Where am I going with this. A fair question indeed, patient reader.
You've noticed that I've been busy lately, sorry to drop out like that. Lots of work and some work travel, and things just pile up.
I'm trying to get better about work travel, as it has become an inescapable fact of life for me, and it seems like it will get worse before it gets better. There are a few simple things I'm trying to do now that make it easier.
1) Travel light - sounds obvious, but I've begun taking it to the extreme. I pack almost nothing, try to fit whatever I need into a large laptop shoulder bag. Yup, I'm that guy with underwear in his computer bag. I cannot bring myself to wear lace-less shoes, and it's not for lack of trying. They just look so dorky on me.
2) Leave the house clean - coming home to a clean house just feels better.
3) Leave something easy and comforting in the fridge to cook when I get home. It cam be tempting to go out to eat after work travel because it's easy, but it's so much nicer to put on some music and make something at home, and to open a pleasing bottle.
Upon returning from a recent work trip I made the simplest of comforting meals - steak and mashed, and a salad. I feel like people think there's some sort of trick to making good mashed potatoes, and I just don't see it. Why is this tricky? I peel and coarsely chop a couple of russets (they cook quickly and have the right texture when mashed), put them in a pot of salted water, bring to a boil, reduce to a simmer, and test them until they give easily to a fork. Then it's through the potato ricer, and here is where the magic happens. The still hot but now ground potatoes are begging for seasoning, and they will readily accept whatever you give them. I keep it simple, with a glug or two of buttermilk, a pat or two of butter, a shake or two of salt, and a grind or three of black pepper. Honestly, it's hard to argue with the results.
I've been trying to cook Japanese food lately, and I've succeeded in cooking Japanese-style food. It's amazing how far you can get with a couple of miso pastes, some kombu (dried kelp) and dried shaved bonito flakes, some mirin and shoyu.
Here is one recipe that my daughters and I have been enjoying - Japanese-style stew with beef and potatoes. Disarmingly simple, and very satisfying, especially in this cold weather. You are essentially braising beef and potatoes in a mixture of Japanese sweet rice wine and shoyu. Here's what you do:
1) Watch the Shogun miniseries in it's entirety. This is 10 hours of your life well spent. And it gets you into the right frame of mind, as a foreigner attempting to do something Japanese.
2) Slice against the grain 1 pound of flank steak (but you can use other similar cuts) into pieces 1 inch thick, but leaving them the width of the steak. Brown the meat and remove from the pot.
3) Cut a large onion in half and slice it with the grain into long thin strips.
4) Peel two russet potatoes and cut them into chunky half moons, chunky enough to hold together in a braise.
5) Peel a decent sized knob of very fresh ginger and grate it finely.
6) Mix together a quarter cup of good quality mirin with a quarter cup good quality shoyu, and 1 cup of good quality hand-poured water. This is the ratio that I like, but you can add more shoyu or mirin - they are strong flavors though and this combination is nicely balanced.
7) Saute the onions in the beefy pot, but don't brown them. After they have cooked for a few minutes, add the ginger and mix well.
8) Add the braising liquid and bring to a simmer.
9) Add the beef and the potatoes, bring to a boil and immediately turn down the heat to a simmer.
10) Cover with a Japanese drop-lid, or if like me, you don't have one, cover the pot with a damp piece of parchment paper and a tight-fitting lid. Every 15 minutes or so move the stew around the pot to make sure that all the meat and potatoes have a turn being submerged.
11) When the meat is very tender, maybe 90 minutes, turn off the heat and let the whole thing rest for 10 minutes or so.
12) Top with scallions and serve over rice.
I'm stuck in the middle of a tough streak right now, friends. Be very careful sharing your good wine with me, as since early January there have been some incredible disappointments. Lately, every bottle that should be great is corked or flawed in some other way. It's starting to spread now to the daily bottles too, which is alarming.
Not long ago I had the opportunity to drink four bottles of very fine Bordeaux, wines by Château Pichon-Lalande. A good friend was in NYC for the weekend and he brought these from his cellar - lucky me! I've had mature Bordeaux before but one bottle at a time, and quite infrequently. This may not surprise you, but I don't have any old Bordeaux in my cellar. Here's another thing that might surprise you - I truly wish that I did.
There are few wines that could be considered less hip and cutting edge than Bordeaux right now. And rightfully so, in a way. The modern wines tend to be over extracted fruit bombs with little to offer in the way of terroir articulation, never mind detail or elegance. They are big, artificially made wines, in most cases. And they are hugely successful, making tons of money for everyone involved.
But like most things that are classic, old Bordeaux is classic for a good reason. They are made from noble grapes and come from interesting terroir, and when well made they combine brawn with detail, complexity, and grace. Many wine lovers of my generation and younger may not have had a great old Bordeaux - it's not something that gets much attention anymore. I think that those of us who haven't had a great old Bordeaux are missing out, not only on beautiful experience, but also on a vital piece of wine appreciation and history. How can we even approach having an understanding of why wine is great without knowing what a grand old claret tastes like?
Pichon-Lalande is one of the top second growths, and comes from Pauillac, a terroir that apparently gives some of the brawnier wines of the region. You can almost see this in the color - look at that inky purple!
The other evening I was at a friends house as our daughters played together. I accepted a last minute dinner invitation. My friend is from Piedmonte, from a small village called Briona in
Valtelinna the Valesia region of the Colline Novaresi. This is the friend who helped me get started making my own pizza (something I continue to attempt, never terribly well).
She made pasta for dinner, a type I'd never seen before, calamari-shaped. When I asked what it was called I believe she actually said "calamari." She tossed them in Sicilian pistachio pesto and topped them with a generous helping of aged Parigiano. This was a very delicious dish, by the way.
The other night I was lucky enough to drink a fino Sherry sourced from Bodegas Valdespino, one of the finest Sherry producers. There are two things that make this wine very special. Firstly, it was selected from special barrels within the Inocente solera by Jesús Barquín and Eduardo Ojeda, two-thirds of the team behind Equipo Navazos. And Ojeda is the capataz, or cellar master, at Valdespino (and La Guita), and so you have to figure that the two of them chose interesting and very fine barrels. Secondly, it was bottled in April of 2007.
I got into wine too late to be able to drink things like La Tâche, Chambertin, or Musigny. There was a time not too far back when a person could buy a bottle of wine like that and yes, it would cost a lot, but buying a bottle wouldn't necessitate changing the way you live. Now, a bottle of mature Chambertin by a top producer costs at least $1,000. La Tâche...fugedaboudit. But these are among Burgundy's greatest vineyards and they give wines that all of us would love to taste. How, in this day and age, can those of us who do not manage hedge funds experience these wines?
Burgundy Wine Club is the answer, my friends. Seven friends and I kick in a few hundred dollars every year, and by pooling our money we are able to buy expensive wines that none of us alone would purchase. Not only are we pooling our resources, we are also sharing the risk of flawed bottles.
I am graced with the task (joy is more like it) of choosing the wines, and the theme of our annual dinner. Last year we drank a lot of Pommard, which is now a curse word in my house. The year before that we focused mostly on Volnay. This year I was not as concerned with picking one theme, and instead focused on finding bottles that I really wanted to drink - things I'd never had before that would be accessible to me only via Burgundy Wine Club. So, we drank a bottle of Montrachet (!), several bottles by Robert Chevillon from the early '90's, some Lignier Clos de la Roche, and yes, we drank Musigny. Musigny!!!
Obviously there is visceral pleasure in drinking these wines, and in the act of getting together with good friends for this annual Big Night of Burgundy. I learn a tremendous amount too at these dinners, and this night especially so. I learned for myself why it is that Les Saint Georges is considered to be the finest terroir in the southern part of Nuits Saint Georges. I was reminded that Montrachet is great, but appreciated the way that some vintages give more of a thrill than others. I learned what Clos de la Roche tastes like, what it really tastes like. And I learned that Musigny, even from a poor vintage, is one of the true apexes of red wine.
We gathered at the bustling and energetic Manhattan hot spot The Breslin, where my friend Carla is the wine director, and she and her team were amazing. We opened the bottles as we sat down, poured the Montrachet, and mostly let it sit in the glass to open up over the course of the next few hours. We began with wines by the great master of Nuits Saint Georges, Robert Chevillon. Chevillon makes wines from 8 vineyards of 1er Cru standing: 4 in the northern and 4 in the southern part of Nuits Saint Georges. His wines are known for their transparency and terroir expression.
On a recent Friday afternoon I had a little special time with my younger daughter, who had just turned 4 years old. Her older sister was still in school and the younger one and I were about to have lunch. She is more adventurous than her older sister as an eater, and has lately been showing an interest in the process of cooking. She likes to stand on a step stool and watch as I cook, and enjoys doing little jobs like mixing the wet and then the dry ingredients when we make pancakes, or putting butter in a hot pan and swirling it around with a spatula.
On this day I thought why not let her choose what we eat for lunch, and maybe she can play a larger role in cooking. I set out some choices for her - we had eggs, leftover polenta, fresh marjoram and rosemary, dry sausage, broccoli, carrots, and a few other things that I cannot recall. She chose polenta and we agreed that we would fry it to make the sides crispy. She decided that we would put an egg on top (perhaps she is familiar with the "egg-on-top" that currently pervades every menu in Brooklyn).
She put butter in a hot pan, cracked an egg into a bowl, and helped me pour it into the pan. She smiled at the sizzling noise, because this time she made that noise happen, not me. She decided on sunny-side up for the eggs. I would have gone with whatever she decided, but this was a good choice. Scrambled eggs on polenta doesn't sound so appealing. She helped me take the eggs out of the pan and place them on a plate. She used a butter knife to cut polenta patties from the log I shaped out of the leftovers, and then helped me to carefully put two patties in the pan. She helped me turn the patties to brown the other side. We put the browned patties on plates and she helped to put the eggs on top. She decided to put two marjoram leaves on top of the eggs, some salt and pepper, and then she decided that we would have thin slices of Parmigiano cheese on top, not shaved cheese.
The Vulgar Little Monkey, or VLM as many like to call him, is back writing on the internet. I like his writing because it's completely honest, because he is clear about his particular point of view, and because he makes me laugh. I recently read through his blog posts since he picked it up again in October and it's satisfying stuff. Most of the posts list wines he's had, along with tasting notes. This sort of thing can be uninspiring at best, but the VLM makes it rewarding, in my opinion.
I've stayed away from this sort of writing, the list of wines and tasting notes, for quite some time because I don't feel that it would be of much value. And maybe it won't be when I try it now. But I'm doing it anyway. Here are some wines I drank in the last few months that might be of interest:
2009 Bernard Baudry Chinon Franc de Pied, $26. This is Baudry's ungrafted vines cuvée from the sandy base of the Clos Guillot vineyard. I've heard that ungrafted vines make wines that should be consumed young, and I've heard the opposite too. This wine showed very well, but showed young. Not all wound up and tight, but young - all fruit still. The dark fruit was lovely and the mineral complexity was there, although just barely articulating itself. This wine is clearly of very high quality and is very well balanced, especially in the context of the warm 2009 vintage. Enjoyable now but I think worth leaving in the cellar too.
2009 Domaine Ganevat Côtes de Jura Cuvée de L'Enfent Terrible, $34.This is Ganevat's Poulsard. Ganevat red wines are almost always reduced and terrifically funky when first opened, and need a good decant to show well. To my taste, this is the finest Poulsard after Houillon/Overnoy. This was a great showing. I decanted it 5 hours before drinking and it needed every moment. When we drank it, it was clear as a bell, completely pure and harmonious and not at all overripe, although the ripeness of the vintage shows. Great complexity and balance. But the thing that makes it special is the purity of the focused red fruit - the crystalline nature of the wine is like that of a white wine. Very lovely, but now the price is closer to $50. If you love Poulsard, probably this is one to buy.
Cédric Bouchard Roses de Jeanne Champagne Inflorescence Blanc de Noirs (2008), $55. No surprise here - this wine is all 2008 fruit, a great vintage in Champagne, and Bouchard makes great wines. This was simply excellent - the purity of fruit rather startling. Saline and chalky, and the texture is all silk. It was still growing and improving when we finished it. Beautiful now, but certainly one to leave in the cellar too.
2007 Muhr-van der Niepoort Blaufränkisch Carnuntum, $18.I loved this wine a year ago and saved one bottle, hoping to leave it alone for a few years. I made it through one year, so I was partially successful. The wine was gorgeous on day one with broad and vibrant aromatics - flowers, various fruit, clean and very lovely. The palate wasn't as expressive, although there was an intriguing mineral floor and this was the main impression on the finish. On day two the wine lost some of its explosiveness on the nose, but was more complete on the palate, with clean, cooling, mineral-infused fruit. Worth the wait, and I should have bought more.
2007 Hirsch Riesling Gaisberg, $34. Hirsch is one of the better regarded producers in Austria's Kamptal region. Heiligenstein is considered to be the vineyard with the best potential, but I like the Gaisberg wines very much also. This wine showed beautifully. I decanted it at 4:00 and we drank it at 7:00, and it needed the time. Some found a bit of petrol on the nose, but I wasn't one of them. For me it is still about perfectly ripe yellow fruits and rock. There is lovely balance and harmony at 12% alcohol and it feels savory on the very long finish. Just excellent wine.
2007 Prager Riesling Smaragd Achleiten, $50. Also took many hours to open up, which I guess shouldn't be surprising. I love the 2007 vintage in Austria - it's my favorite of the recent vintages, but the wines are definitely in a closed phase. I decanted this for a few hours before pouring it back in the bottle and taking it to dinner, and it was still shut down for hours. That said, it opened eventually and the wine is excellent. Balanced, richly fruited, mineral, complex, and with a strong presence on the palate. A real beauty.
2006 Domaine de l'Anglore Côtes du Rhône Comeyre (magnum), $64. I loved this wine at a trade tasting maybe 5 years ago and I bought a magnum, thinking I would bring it to Thanksgiving dinner in a few years. It wasn't Thanksgiving, but I brought it to some dinner party, and wow, have my tastes changed. It is high quality wine, aromatic and tasty, but it smells more like !--Natural Wine--! than it does like old vines Carignan, and there is no sense of place whatsoever. Not a style of wine that interests or truly satisfies me.
2005 François Chidaine Montlouis-sur-Loire Les Choisilles, $28. I bought a few of these several years ago and first drank one only recently. This is one of Chidaine's dry wines and in the warm 2005 vintage it is 14% alcohol but seems lower because the wine is so well balanced, and the acidity keeps it bright and refreshing. Nose is just lovely, albeit a bit shy on day 1, and the aromas are perfectly delicate. Wool, beeswax, winter herbs like rosemary, yellow fruit, and all wispy and always moving. There is a lush feel to the palate but it is focused and essentially dry. Such lovely wine.
2005 Domaine de la Pépière Muscadet Clos des Briords, $13. I drank almost a case of this wine in 07 and 08, but saved a few bottles. Decided to check in on the wine, and time has clarified the aromas and flavors here. Especially on day two, there are lovely seashell aromas and citrus oils - grapefruit. The palate is balanced and has a bit of grain in the texture. A bit broad perhaps, not as focused I imagine as some other recent vintages will be as they age, but this is lovely wine.
There are many things I learn when drinking wine. Here are some things I've been thinking, things I want to remember entering 2013, along with the bottles that helped to inspire the lessons:
It was a holiday evening and I was at my good friend Peter's house for dinner. You already know that he is one of very finest wine writers and critics, and that he is the author of ChampagneGuide.net, and that he recently published a long-awaited Sherry book. But did you know that he is a wonderful cook?
Peter can cook anything but prefers to cook in the Japanese style. And on this Christmas eve, I hung around his kitchen while he prepared dinner. We talked about how his book is selling, how my work is going, about our plans for travel in the coming year, about how I miss my kids on the Christmas holidays, and all sorts of other things that good friends talk about. We drank Champagne. Good music wafted from the sound dock speakers.
Ready for a little complaining? It's the holidays, I know. But indulge me.
I was in Stockholm recently and ate dinner at two different restaurants. In both cases I found the wine service to be excellent. I remarked to my dining companions, who also are wine lovers, that I appreciated the service, in particular the fact that the servers were in no hurry whatsoever to pour our wine. Instead they would open a bottle, offer a taste, and then pour a small glass to each person. Then, they would walk away.
This might not sound terribly special to you, but I very much appreciated it. I find that in many restaurants, servers are in a rush to pour wine and they pour very large glasses, filling the vessel more than halfway. Filling the glass that high is just annoying - it's hard to handle the glass when it's so top-heavy. And I find it hard to enjoy the aromas when there is so much liquid in the glass sloshing around, and so little room left within the glass for air.
If I order wine at a restaurant I want to let it unfold and change in the glass, and I want to experience and enjoy those changes. It's hard to do that if before I've even come close to finishing what's in my glass, the server pounces and re-fills me.
That said, I can understand why servers do this. It comes down to tips. When people sit down and order a bottle of wine, the server anticipates selling a second bottle, so pouring high and quickly should lead to a higher bill and a bigger tip. Maybe this works some of the time, and some customers don't mind the quick and high pour. But I think it's a misguided strategy, even from the server's point of view. Here is why:
1) Happy customers leave bigger tips.
2) Two people dining together rarely order two bottles of wine. Sometimes they do, but I'm guessing very rarely. So when there are two people at the table, pouring fast and high typically results in the sale of 1 bottle of wine, the same number of bottles that sell when the server pours at a relaxed and leisurely pace. But those two diners will feel happier when they are allowed to enjoy their wine at a leisurely pace, their experience will be better. They are likely to tip more.
3) If a table of four or more people is inclined to order multiple bottles, they will do so because they want to drink wine, not because the server rushes them. Okay, sometimes people will say "what the hell" and order another bottle when the first disappears quickly. But the table that orders another bottle because they are rushed is probably not ordering expensive wine anyway, so the impact on the tip won't be huge. Allowing a table of four to be relaxed about enjoying their good wine encourages them to order more wine.
Here is an example of how a restaurant and a server lose revenue when they pour high and fast: I was with a friend at a popular Manhattan wine bar not long ago. We decided to splurge and ordered a bottle of Champagne. It was a wine I'd never tasted before and I wanted to take my time, to explore the wine. Our server essentially poured the whole bottle into our two glasses within minutes. We couldn't take a sip without having our glasses refilled, and poured way too high. We drank our wine, paid, and left. We might have ordered more wine, but the experience of drinking the Champagne was not so pleasant.
Here is an example of a relaxed pour leading to a good experience: A restaurant in Stockholm called Rolfs Kök ('Rolf's Kitchen' in English, I believe. Get your mind out of the gutter). There were four of us, and as we looked at the dinner menu I selected a bottle of 2002 Hirsch Riesling Heiligenstein from the wine list. The server tasted it and decanted the bottle at a side station, returned to the table, poured me a taste, and then each of us a small glass. He left the decanter at the table and went off to do other work. We talked, chose our dinner, enjoyed our wine. The few Austrian wines I've had from the 2002 vintage have been weird, and this one was too, but it opened nicely and was lovely to follow over an hour. Yes, we drank that wine over the course of about an hour. But by then we had decided upon our dinner, which would include Elk, and we ordered a bottle of 2007 Fourrier Gevrey-Chambertin. The server decanted that too, and left the bottle at our table. He returned to pour small glasses as our main courses arrived. We refilled sometimes, he refilled sometimes, and it was relaxed. The wine was very good, strikingly pure and crackling with energy. One friend thought it needed another two or three years in the bottle, I thought it was lovely as is. We enjoyed having the opportunity to see how it changed in the glass. We left a very nice tip.
One of my dining companions in Stockholm commiserated with me on this pet peeve of mine, the high and fast pour. His wife laughed and agreed that the high and fast pour drives him crazy. My friend is an economist, however, and he often finds simple and efficient solutions to life's little problems.
"You know what I do about this now," he said to me. "If I order wine at a restaurant, when the server brings the wine I smile and very politely say to them 'If you don't mind, we will pour our own wine.'"
Wow. Simple and polite, perfectly reasonable. Can it really be that easy? I've thought about this now since my friend suggested it and maybe it is that easy. Sure, there will be times when I'll miss out on good wine service if I preempt the server and say that I'd like to pour my own wine. But more often, I think I will have a better experience (and leave a better tip because of it). I'll try this in early 2013 and let you know how it goes, because I know you are waiting with bated breath.
If this is a pet peeve of yours, how do you deal with it?
I recently had the occasion to be in Stockholm, Sweden (!), a trip for work. The whole trip was amazing, but I want to tell you about one meal I had there, what easily for me is the dinner of the year in 2012. What made it so good? Well, the company, for starters. I work with really nice people. And the wine. The list was interesting and smart, and there were a few gems that are quite difficult to find back home. And the food was wonderful, showing an honest dedication to local ingredients and typical Swedish cuisine, and also prepared with a modern sensibility.
The restaurant is called Volt, and if you ever have the good fortune to be in Sweden, I strongly urge you to eat here. Not cheap at all, but one of those expensive meals where there is no doubt that you have gotten your money's worth.

Is there a bug that currently restricts Zimbra users to forward their Zimbra email accounts to a personal AOL account? One of my employees (we use the Zimbra Collaboration suite) has tried repeatedly to forward Zimbra email to his AOL accounts and the AOL server never receives the email.
Where should I even BEGIN to look to solve this problem? It sounds like it may be a settings problem on the AOL end, but I don't know what that would be or where to look for it. I will never see the man's email account or computer, so going to his computer will not work. What can I pass along to him to help?
Also, he has no other problems sending emails to other people, nor does he have problems receiving email from other people (like me!) but I use Groupwise, not Zimbra.

Kindergartners, second-graders and fourth-graders were the stars of the show last Thursday, Dec. 6 in the elementary Christmas program, directed by Marcia Dalton. Festive songs and a fun skit got parents and friends in the Christmas mood.
Four of the reindeer in the fourth grade's "The Reindeer Whisperer" hear from the elves that Santa plans to send them to California to retire. What they didn't know was that Santa was planning to send them on a relaxing vacation instead. A hilarious musical skit followed to tell the story of the reindeer, Santa and the reindeer whisperer.

The Mavic Crossmax ST 26in Wheelset takes the best qualities in a cross-country wheel and adapts them for all-mountain riding. They're tough, responsive, and reliable --that's about all we could ever ask out of a wheelset.
The Maxtal rims are part of why the Crossmax ST Wheels are tough. The proprietary Mavic alloy is 30% stiffer than typical 6106 alloys. They're made a bit wider than traditional mountain rims, 19mm on the inside, in order to allow fuller spread of the tire. This improves grip, adds stability to the sidewall for fast cornering, and reduces the chance of pinch flats if you're using tubes. Mavic's SUP process creates the welded rim joint and machined sidewalls. Another machining process, known as Inter Spoke Milling, relieves the rim of unnecessary material, which saves weight without compromising on stiffness or strength.
One of the key features of the Crossmax wheels is that they're UST certified, and we've found nothing that offers tubeless performance as good as UST rims. Mavic achieves this capability by using their Fore drilling process to eliminate spoke holes in the rim bed. Only the bottom bridge of the rim is drilled for the spokes. The upper bridge has only the valve stem hole, and it's sealed with the included UST valve stems.
The Crossmax ST Disc Wheels employ 24 straight-pull Zicral aluminum spokes in the front wheel and 20 in the rear wheel. The front wheel is laced in a standard 2-cross pattern. The rear is a bit more complicated; the Isopulse lacing (2-cross on the non-drive and radial on the drive-side) gives more balanced spoke tension and better durability. The white hubs and the axles inside are made of aluminum, and their micro-adjustable design ensures perfect preload and smooth operation of the QRM+ sealed cartridge bearings.
The ITS-4 freehub body is new to the Crossmax ST wheels. It's more durable than the previous FTS freehub body, and offers less freeplay (7.5°) between engagement points for quicker and more efficient energy transmission.
The Crossmax ST Wheels come with a BX601 quick release, UST valves and accessories, front 15mm thru-axle adapters, rear quick release adapters, rear 12x142mm adapters, Mavic specific rotor bolts, a front wheel computer magnet, a multifunction wrench, and a user guide.
The Mavic Crossmax ST 26in Wheelset comes in Black with White hubs. They are available with a SRAM/Shimano compatible freehub body.
